Plaintiff’s Motion to Enforce Settlement

Plaintiff’s motion to enforce settlement is denied because there is insufficient evidence the parties agreed pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 664.6 for the court to retain jurisdiction to enforce the settlement after the action is dismissed. (Code Civ. Proc., § 664.6; see generally Anderson Dece’l.) Here, plaintiff dismissed the action with prejudice on February 25, 2026.

Plaintiff’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction

Plaintiff moves for a preliminary injunction that enjoins defendant State of California Department of Motor Vehicles from transferring any right, title, or interest in or to the vehicle during the pendency of the action.

All moving papers must be served at least 16 court days before the hearing. (Code Civ. Proc., § 1005, subd. (b).) This applies to motions for preliminary injunction. (Id. at § 527, subd. (a). The service timeline is extended depending upon the method of service. (See generally id. at § 1005.)

Here, there is no proof of service in the file demonstrating defendants have been served with the motion for preliminary injunction. Accordingly, plaintiff’s motion for preliminary injunction is denied without prejudice.
