Sanctions

Code of Civil Procedure section 2033.290, subdivision (d), provides “[t]he court shall impose a monetary sanction . . . against any party, person, or attorney who unsuccessfully makes or opposes a motion to compel further response, unless it finds that the one subject to the sanction acted with substantial justification or that other circumstances make the imposition of the sanction unjust.” Here, Plaintiff has been successful, to a degree, in each motion. Accordingly, the Court awards Plaintiff sanctions in what it finds to be a reasonable amount of $600.00 for each motion, for a total of $1,200.00. Sanctions shall be paid by Defendants jointly and severally within ten (10) days of entry of the order. The Court acknowledges Defendants have succeeded in their oppositions to a degree; however, they have not sought sanctions. As such, none are ordered payable by Plaintiff.
