Petitioner's motion to compel responses to special interrogatories set one is granted. Petitioner met and conferred in good faith. (Stigi III Dec., pars. 9-10.) Indeed, respondent's counsel strung petitioner along by stating that substantive responses would be provided and then reneging on that promise. (Id. at Exs. 5-7.)
The motion is timely. Respondent provided only unverified objections in response to the special interrogatories. Accordingly, the 45-day deadline of CCP 2030.300(c) did not begin to run. (Golf & Tennis Pro Shop, Inc. v. Superior Ct. (2022) 84 Cal.App.5th 127, 135 ["if responses are not verified, the clock cannot begin to run"].)
There is good cause for the discovery to aid petitioner in its collection efforts and respondent's objections are meritless. (See CCP 708.020(a) ["the judgment creditor may propound written interrogatories to the judgment debtor . . . requesting information to aid in enforcement of the money judgment."].) Respondent is ordered to provide complete, straightforward responses to Special Interrogatory Nos. 1-17 by October 28, 2025.
For the 9:00 a.m. calendar, all attorneys and parties may appear in Department 301 remotely or in person. Remote hearings will be conducted by videoconference using Zoom. (Dept. 301 Zoom ID 161 502 4290; Passcode 700956.) To appear remotely at the hearing, go to the court's website at sfsuperiorcourt.org under "Online Services," navigate to "Tentative Rulings," and click on the appropriate link, or dial the corresponding phone number.
Any party who contests a tentative ruling must send an email to contestdept301tr@sftc.org with a copy to all other parties by 4pm stating, without argument, the portion(s) of the tentative ruling that the party contests. The subject line of the email shall include the line number, case name and case number. The text of the email shall include the name and contact information, including email address, of the attorney or party who will appear at the hearing.

Counsel for the prevailing party is required to prepare a proposed order which repeats verbatim the substantive portion of the tentative ruling and must email it to contestdept301tr@sftc.org prior to the hearing even if the tentative ruling is not contested.
The court no longer provides a court reporter in the Law & Motion or Discovery Department. Parties may retain their own reporter, who may appear in the courtroom or remotely. A retained reporter must be a California certified court reporter (CSR), for only a CSR's transcript may be used in California courts. If a CSR is being retained, include in your email all of the following: their name, CSR and telephone numbers, and their individual work email address. = (301/CVA) | |
