Tentative Ruling - 09/04/2026 Victoria Kolakowski

Plaintiff George Palmer’s Motion to Consolidate this action with the eviction action, Robinson v. Palmer, 26CV171956, is denied as moot. Since filing this Motion in July 2026, the eviction action settled. (See Stip. Settlement, Robinson, No. 26CV171956 (Aug. 5, 2026).) Accordingly, there is no reason to consolidate this pending action with the settled eviction action.
