Tentative Ruling - 09/02/2026 Chad A. Stegeman
The unopposed motion to have requests for admissions deemed admitted is granted; however, the requested attorney fees are unsubstantiated. The Tecson Declaration does not state what their hourly rate is and merely attached a fee matrix without more, and the fee matrix also does not cover the applicable time frame. The requests for admissions are deemed admitted and the court awards two hours of attorney time for this unopposed motion at $350/hour for a total discovery sanction of $700, to be paid by Plaintiff to Defendants' counsel within 30 days of this order.
