PROGRAM - QUASH/MODIFY/VACATE SUBPOENA 2) REQUEST FOR ORDER – DISCOVERY FACILITATOR PROGRAM - QUASH/MODIFY/VACATE
This matter is set for hearing on Petitioner/Husband’s 3/18/2026 Request for Order (“RFO”) to Quash/Modify/Vacate Subpoena and 3/20/2026 Amended RFO to Quash/Modify/Vacate Subpoena. On 4/16/2026 Adrian Sawyer, Esq. was appointed as Discovery Facilitator for this matter. Mr. Sawyer advised the Court that Mr. Mani has failed to make contact with him or provide him with the Motion to Quash.
The Court will not hear this matter until the parties have been through the Discovery Facilitation process. Mr. Mani is ordered to immediately contact Mr. Sawyer and provide him with the RFO papers, and the matter is continued for hearing to 7/24/2026 at 9:00 am in Department E.
SO ORDERED.
The Court will prepare the order.
Any party who disagrees with the Court's tentative ruling and wishes to have oral argument must notify the Court at (415) 444-7046 and opposing counsel (or if the opposing party is selfrepresented, notice must be given directly to the opposing party) of their intent to appear at the hearing for oral argument by 4:00 pm on the court day before the hearing, as required by Marin County Superior Court Family Law Local Rules 7.12(B) and (C). Notice may be given by telephone or in person. Absent proper notice, no oral argument will be permitted. If no request for oral argument is made, the tentative ruling will become the order of the Court.
Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, persons who requested oral argument must appear for the hearing in person or remotely via Zoom, in accordance with the Court website guidelines. If appearing remotely via Zoom (video or telephone), you are responsible for ensuring you have adequate connectivity; the Court may proceed in a party’s absence if technical issues arise. Proper Zoom etiquette and courtroom decorum are required, and failure to comply may result in the hearing being halted and an order to appear in person being made.
