Unfair Practices Act (UPA) in California

The basis for this ruling is set forth below. 1st COA: Conspiracy to Violate Unfair Practices Act The "Unfair Practices Act" ("UPA") is codified at Business & Professions Code sections 17000, et seq. The purpose of the UPA "is to safeguard the public against the creation or perpetuation of monopolies and to foster and encourage competition, by prohibiting unfair, dishonest, deceptive, destructive, fraudulent and discriminatory practices by which fair and honest competition is destroyed or prevented."

The complaint alleges violations of the Labor Code and the Unfair Practices Act (Bus. & Prof. Code, § 17000, et seq.). On September 20, 2019, Shepard served by mail a first set of form interrogatories and requests for production of documents (“RFPs”) on Plaintiff. Responses were due on October 25, 2019. (Code Civ. Proc., §§ 2030.260, 2031.260, 2016.050.) Prior to that Plaintiff requested, and was given, an extension to November 1, 2019.

Plaintiff also alleges violations of the UPA. Plaintiff alleges that Defendants acts and practices constitute unlawful business acts or practices as they have violated Business and Professions Code section 17043 and 17045 of the UPA. (Id. at ¶¶ 26, 29.)

A complaint under the Unfair Practices Act (B. & P.C. 17000 et seq.) must state facts supporting the statutory elements of the alleged violation. See G.H.I.I. v. MTS (1983) 147 Cal.App.3d 256, 271 and Khoury v. Maly's of Calif. (1993) 14 Cal.App.4th 612, 619 [demurrer was properly sustained; complaint identified no particular statutory section that was violated and failed to describe with reasonable particularity facts supporting violation].

The unfair competition law is independent of the Unfair Practices Act and other laws. Its remedies are cumulative ... to the remedies or penalties available under all other laws of this state (§ 17205), but its sanctions are less severe than those of the Unfair Practices Act. Prevailing plaintiffs are generally limited to injunctive relief and restitution. (§ 17203; see ABC Internat. Traders, Inc. v. Matsushita Electric Corp. (1997) 14 Cal.4th 1247, 1268 [61 Cal.Rptr.2d 112, 931 P.2d 290].)

Missing verification by petitioner. Prob.C. § 1021. Notwithstanding petitioner's characterization of this proceeding as an amended motion or relief, the proceeding is a petition for relief under Prob.C. § 17000 et seq., and petitioner's verification is required.

According to defendant, one of the cross-defendants (he does not state which) violated the Unfair Practices Act (B&P Code §§ 17000 et seq) by violating the Automotive Repair Act (B&P Code §9884.9) by performing work on the vehicle without the registered owner’s express permission.

The motion seeks to invalidate County's interpretation of the MTPA as such a limit on the County's contractual payment obligation by contending that such an interpretation is inconsistent with County's purpose in entering the contract, to comply with its obligation under Welfare and Institutions Code section 17000 to provide its indigent residents with medically necessary services.

Code §§17000(a), 17200.) Here, “Plaintiff Say has attached to his Amended Complaint an Exhibit entitled an ‘Amendment to Osman Karaardic Survivor’s Trust.’ While the body of his operative complaint refers to a ‘Will’..., it appears that Plaintiff Say is complaining about a matter ‘concerning the internal affairs of [a] trust....” (Dem. 5: 22-27.) The Court agrees. The demurrer is sustained for lack of subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to Prob. Code §17000(a).

Given the failure to complete the civil partition within a reasonable period of time (now beyond five years), would there be any benefit in the probate court exercising direct §17000(b)(3) jurisdiction over the partition to at least liquidate the trust's interest in that asset ? Discuss. gmr

Stovall’s monthly expenses are reported to be over $17000 per month, despite the fact that neither Ms. Stovall nor her husband, judgment debtor Martin Lambaren, have any children or apparent dependents. Given the significant amounts that Ms. Stovall appears currently to be spending on expenses that are not necessary for her or her husband’s support, the court DENIES the claim of exemption.

A complaint under the Unfair Practices Act (B. & P.C. 17000 et seq.) must state facts supporting the statutory elements of the alleged violation. See G.H.I.I. v.

.§ 17000(b) provides this court, as it exercises jurisdiction over the trust itself, concurrent jurisdiction over actions against alleged trust debtors and actions involving "trustees and third persons". Under Prob.C.§ 853, since Ventura County would therefore be a proper court for the trial of such a trust-related civil action, it follows that venue is appropriate here, the court's workload notwithstanding.

Code, § 17000.) At the hearing of the motion, the Court will set an order to show cause why the Court should not facilitate the transfer of this matter to the Probate Division. The parties may file their responsive briefs no later than 10 court days prior to the hearing limited to the issue of whether this matter belongs in the Probate Division. The Court defers ruling on the demurrers pending resolution of this issue.

Eleventh Cause of Action “ Section 17200 (part of the Unfair Practices Act) defines ‘unfair competition’ to include ‘any unlawful, unfair or fraudulent business act or practice and unfair, deceptive, untrue or misleading advertising.’ (See also § 17000 et seq.) Although ‘persons’ who engage in unfair competition may be sued for damages and injunctive relief (§§ 17203-17205), the University of California is a ‘public entity’ (Gov.

Code § 17000, subd. (a).) The Law Revision Commission Comment clarifies that the term “superior court” as used in this statute is meant to refer to the Probate Department: It is intended that the department of the superior court that customarily deals with probate matters will exercise the exclusive jurisdiction relating to internal trust affairs provided by subdivision (a). This department of the superior court is not a court of limited power.

The court proposes that the presently existing 8/16/14-8/15/16 conservatorship estate account period and its 11/28/16 hearing date be maintained intact, the only difference being that the accounting document will consist of separate conservatorship estate and SNT estate accounts. Set bond at $809,000.

Code § 17000(a) ?the superior court having jurisdiction over the trust? has exclusive jurisdiction over proceedings concerning the internal affairs of trusts. A petition to remove and/or appoint a trustee is a proceeding concerning the internal affairs of a trust. Prob. Code § 17200(b)(10). The proper county for commencement of this action relating to a testamentary trust is either the county where the decedent?s estate is administered or the principal place of administration ?

.§17000.) On December 16, 2015, the undersigned consolidated the civil complaint into this probate. On January 26, 2016, the executor filed a trust petition in Los Angeles County to essentially seek a resolution of the Snodgrass creditor's claim pending in this court. The petition alleges at ¶18 that the trust is being administered in Los Angeles County, but in fact, Ms. Snodgrass purports to be a Boise, Idaho resident in her creditor's claim.

First, Petitioner argues that Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) section 17000 overrides local policies and provides an absolute requirement to relieve and support all incompetent, poor, indigent persons. (WIC § 17000.) Petitioner cites Mooney v. Pickett (1971) 4 Cal.3d 669 ( Mooney ) to assert that a county cannot use rigid regulations to arbitrarily exclude people from relief. (Opp. at 3.)

Code, §§ 17000 to 17004.7. See Morgan v. Beaumont Police Department (2016) 246 Cal. App. 4th 144 [A police department's failure to properly "promulgate" its vehicle pursuit policy was in violation of Veh. Code § 17004.7 and thus statutory immunity did not apply and the department could be subject to liability for the wrongful death of motorist as a result of a police pursuit.]. Therefore, the demurrer is overruled.

Code, §§ 7050; 17000(b).) In any case, a nonprobate department entertaining a matter within exclusive probate court jurisdiction does not lack fundamental jurisdiction over the matter. (Harnedy v. Whitty (2003) 110 Cal.App.4th 1333, 1344-1345; In re Michael R. (2006) 137 Cal.App.4th 126, 146; Estate of Bowles (2008) 169 Cal.App.4th 684, 695.)

Judge Kazanjian has already specifically determined that the concurrent exclusive jurisdiction doctrine does not apply (see Order Denying Stay, Oppo. RJN Exh.

ISSUE 11: Plaintiffs fail to raise a genuine issue of material fact that there was an “unlawful act” under B&P 17000 et. seq. ISSUE 12: Plaintiffs fail to raise a genuine issue of material fact that there was an “unfair act” under B&P 17000 et. seq. ISSUE 13: Plaintiffs fail to raise a genuine issue of material fact that there was a “fraudulent act” under B&P 17000, because the claims are not independent of the parties’ contract and the claim is barred by the economic loss rule.

Code § 17000(a) states that the probate court has exclusive jurisdiction of proceedings concerning the internal affairs of trusts, while Prob. Code § 17000(b)(2) and (3) state the probate court has concurrent jurisdiction over, respectively, actions and proceedings by or against creditors or debtors of trusts, and other actions and proceedings involving trustees and third persons.

The Instant Action involves contracts wherein Encino was to purchase and fully own medical liens/accounts receivables from third parties as well as lease office space at 17000 Ventura Blvd., Suite 101. (Instant Action Compl. pars. 9-11.) However, Valley and Rain breached the agreement by failing to provide Encino with the medical liens/accounts receivables and reimburse Encino for lease related expenses. (Instant Action Compl. pars. 12-13.)

The signatures for the tracking numbers are by one “Olivia Rogers” at the address 17000 Gillette Ave., which is MTC’s corporate office. (Opposition at pp. 9–10.) Menefield thus argues that the notices of sale were not sent to the trustee as purported in the declaration, but rather falsely mailed to the MTC office. (Motion at pp. 6–7.)

All eight cases are landlord-tenant disputes involving property located at 17000 Burbank Avenue, Encino, California (the Subject Property). (Motion p. 5.)

Fifth Cause of Action for Unfair Competition The Unfair Practices Act [the Act] is found in Business and Professions Code, Section 17000 et seq. ( Framers Ins. Exchange v. Superior Court (1992) 2 Cal.4th 377, 383 (Farmers).) An unfair practice is any unlawful, unfair, or fraudulent business practices or acts and unfair, deceptive, untrue, or misleading advertising.

Code § 17000(a).) Harnedy does not apply because there the Court of Appeal found that the alleged claims had nothing to do with the internal affairs of a trust, which was defined as: “modification of the terms of the trust, changes in a designated successor trustee, other deviation from trust provisions, authority over the trustee’s acts, or the administration of the trust’s financial arrangements.” ( Id. at p. 1345.)
