The clerk of this court is authorized to transfer all the pleadings and papers herein to the clerk of the receiving court.

Petitioner is ordered to pay all necessary fees and costs for the transfer. If those costs and fees are not paid within 30 days after the date of this order, the court may, on a duly noticed motion by any party or the court’s own motion at a Review Hearing re Transfer, dismiss this proceeding without prejudice.

The clerk shall give notice of this order to the transfer clerk.

A Review Hearing re Transfer is set for 08/26/26 at 1:30pm in Department CM07 in connection with ruling on this motion. No appearance will be necessary if the matter is transferred before that date.

The hearing on Petition currently set for 06/11/26 at 9:00 AM in Dept. CM06 is ADVANCED to this date and ordered OFF-CALENDAR.
