Petition to Coordinate Add-On Case in California

What Is a Petition to Coordinate Add-On Case?

“When civil actions sharing a common question of fact or law are pending in different courts, a petition for coordination may be submitted to the Chairperson of the Judicial Council, by the presiding judge of any such court, or by any party to one of the actions after obtaining permission from the presiding judge, or by all of the parties plaintiff or defendant in any such action.” (Code of Civ. Proc., § 404.)

The petition to coordinate is also used to add-on a case discovered after the coordination trial judge is selected. (Code of Civ. Proc., § 404.4; Ford Motor Warranty Cases (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 626, 634.) The Court of Appeal has recognized that “the coordination statutes and rules expressly contemplate add-on cases.” (Ford Motor Warranty Cases (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 626, 639.)

Legal Standard

“Coordination of civil actions sharing a common question of fact or law is appropriate if one judge hearing all of the actions for all purposes in a selected site or sites will promote the ends of justice taking into account whether the common question of fact or law is predominating and significant to the litigation; the convenience of parties, witnesses, and counsel; the relative development of the actions and the work product of counsel; the efficient utilization of judicial facilities and manpower; the calendar of the courts; the disadvantages of duplicative and inconsistent rulings, orders, or judgments; and, the likelihood of settlement of the actions without further litigation should coordination be denied.” (Code of Civ. Proc., § 404.1; McGhan Med. Corp. v. Super. Ct. (Hogan) (1992) 11 Cal.App.4th 804, 812.)

“A petition for coordination, or a motion for permission to submit a petition, shall be supported by a declaration stating facts showing that the actions are complex, as defined by the Judicial Council and that the actions meet the standards specified in § 404.1.” (Code of Civ. Proc., § 404.)

A “complex” case is an action that requires “exceptional judicial management to avoid placing unnecessary burdens on the court or the litigants and to expedite the case, keep costs reasonable, and promote effective decision making by the court, the parties and counsel.” (First State Ins. Co. v. Super. Ct. (Jalisco Corp., Inc.) (2000) 79 Cal.App.4th 324, 332.) In deciding whether an action is a complex case, the court must consider, among other things, whether the action is likely to involve:

  1. Numerous pretrial motions raising difficult or novel legal issues that will be time-consuming to resolve;
  2. Management of a large number of witnesses or a substantial amount of documentary evidence;
  3. Management of a large number of separately represented parties;
  4. Coordination with related actions pending in one or more courts in other counties, states, or countries, or in a federal court; or
  5. Substantial postjudgment judicial supervision.

(Cal. Rules of Ct., Rule 3.400(b).)

“In deciding the request to coordinate [an add-on case], the court must consider the relative development of the actions and the work product of counsel, in addition to any other relevant matter.” (Cal. Rules of Ct., Rule 3.544(c).) A coordination judge could determine specific add-on cases are not suitable for coordination and decline to add substantively similar cases, “such as if the case is ready for trial, or some other feature distinguishes it from the cases in the coordination proceeding.” (Ford Motor Warranty Cases (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 626, 639.)

The Court of Appeal recognized the primacy of Rule 3.544(c) in a petition to coordinate an add-on case, stating “[t]hat primacy makes a good deal of sense where the proposed add-on cases have no meaningful differences from the cases already being coordinated. Where the cases are substantively alike, most other coordination standards — that is, the common question of law or fact predominating; efficient utilization of judicial facilities and manpower; the disadvantages of duplicative and inconsistent ruling — are unlikely to be different from those existing when the original coordination order was made. On the other hand, counsel may have devoted extensive resources in discovery and other trial preparation in some or many of the add-on cases, and those cases may have trial dates. Adding such cases to the coordination proceeding may result in costly duplication of efforts and delay in resolution of those cases.” (Ford Motor Warranty Cases (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 626, 637-638.)

Procedure

“On receipt of a petition for coordination, the Chairperson of the Judicial Council may assign a judge to determine whether the actions are complex, and if so, whether coordination of the actions is appropriate, or the Chairperson of the Judicial Council may authorize the presiding judge of a court to assign the matter to judicial officers of the court to make the determination in the same manner as assignments are made in other civil cases.” (Code of Civ. Proc., § 404.)

Rulings for Petition to Coordinate Add-On Case in California

As to the potential add-on cases, Defendant Cypress initially filed only a Notice of potential add-on cases pursuant to CRC 3.531 and did not comply with the CRC 3.544(a) requirement of explaining why coordination is appropriate. Moreover, this court cannot locate a proof of service as to Defendant’s Notice of Potential Add-on Cases filed March 1, 2018 or its Notice of Potential Add-on Cases filed March 13, 2018.

CKE, which initiated the coordination petition, succinctly states its own position: “The Judicial Council framed the Petition as add-on cases to a pending coordinated proceeding despite the fact that CKE’s Petition does not include or discuss a potential add-on request.

February 2, 2018 is 120 days from the filing of the Second Amended Add-On Petition. According to Ford, however, the parties agreed that any of the add-on cases in the May 2016 add-on or second add-on case set with trial dates set before January 1, 2018 would be presumptively excluded from this proceeding. Ford says that the Plaintiffs should not be permitted to oppose coordination based on Ford’s compliance with the parties’ agreed-upon and Court-ordered procedures and limitations. The CMO is clear.
