BROWN vs MITCHELL, et al.

25CV161382: BROWN vs MITCHELL, et al. 09/08/2026 Initial Case Management Conference in Department 15

Tentative Ruling - 08/28/2026 Peter Borkon

ORDER RE: CASE MANAGEMENT AND ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

The Court has ordered the following after review of the case.

Plaintiff filed this case on December 26, 2025. He has not served the complaint or filed proof of service with the Court. The Court again reminds Plaintiff that he must accomplish these tasks and he must file CMC statements 15 days in advance of every case management conference. Plaintiff's lack of compliance suggests that he has abandoned this case.

The Court continues this matter one additional time and advises Plaintiff that if he has not completed these tasks, the Court will issue an order to show cause why this matter should not be dismissed for failure to serve the complaint, file proof of service and for failure to file timely CMC statements.

FURTHER CONFERENCE A Case Management Conference is scheduled for 02/16/2027 at 02:30 PM in Department 15.

Updated Case Management Statements in compliance with Rule of Court 3.725, on Judicial Council Form CM-110, must be filed no later than 02/01/2027. If the foregoing date is a court holiday or a weekend, the time is extended to the next business day.

If you contest the tentative ruling you must do so in a timely manner in accordance with the Local Rules. Failure to alert the Court and the opposing side or to appear will result in the Court affirming its tentative ruling. If the tentative ruling is uncontested, no appearance is necessary and the Court's tentative ruling will become a final order of the Court after the hearing.

Counsel must carefully review the order which will set forth the Court's reasoning. Counsel must also review Dept. 15's information page, which contains answers to frequently asked questions, and sets forth guidance for communicating with the department and litigating certain motions and proceedings.
