Plaintiff Wells Fargo, N.A.'s motion to deem admitted the truth of any matters specified in its Requests for Admission, Set One, to defendant Christopher Dunsmore is granted. Dunsmore failed to timely respond to this discovery and has thereby waived objections. (CCP 2033.280(a).) The truth of any matters specified in the RFAs is deemed admitted by Dunsmore. (CCP 2033.280(b), (c).)

Wells Fargo does not seek sanctions. But CCP 2033.280(c) provides: "It is mandatory that the court impose a monetary sanction under Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 2023.010) on the party or attorney, or both, whose failure to serve a timely response to requests for admission necessitated this motion." The court awards sanctions of $50 payable by Dunsmore to Wells Fargo within 30 days of entry of this order.
