DELTA DENTAL OF CALIFORNIA ET AL | Court Date: | | 2025-10-21 09:00 AM | Calendar Matter: | | Plaintiffs Notice Of Motion And Motion To Quash Defendants Deposition Subpoenas For Production Of Business Records Issued To Plaintiff?S Former Employers; Request For Monetary Sanctions; Memorandum Of Points And Authorities | Rulings: | | On the Law and Motion/Discovery calendar for October 21, 2025, line 12. PLAINTIFF JONATHAN DSOUZA'S Motion To Quash Defendants Deposition Subpoenas For Production Of Business Records Issued To Plaintiff'S Former Employers; Request For Monetary Sanctions.
Plaintiff Jonathan Dsouza's motion to quash deposition subpoenas for production of business records issued to his former employers is DENIED without prejudice. California Rule of Court 3.1345 requires the inclusion of a separate statement for any motion involving the content of a discovery request, explicitly including a motion "to compel or to quash the production of documents or tangible things at a deposition." (CRC 3.1345(a)(5).) The separate statement must "provide[] all the information necessary to understand each discovery request and all the responses to it that are at issue" and must be "full and complete so that no person is required to review any other document in order to determine the full request and the full response." (CRC 3.1345(c).)
Here, Plaintiff has not included a separate statement with his motion. The court denies Plaintiff's motion on the basis of Plaintiff's failure to comply with the separate statement requirement.
