You may also email the Court at: Courtroom21@ventura.courts.ca.gov with all counsel copied on the email. Do not call in lieu of sending a fax or email. If you submit on the tentative without appearing and the opposing party appears, the hearing will be conducted in your absence. If you are the moving party and do not communicate to the Court that you submit on the tentative or you do not appear at the hearing, the Court may deny your motion irrespective of the tentative. Unless stated otherwise at the hearing, if a formal order is not signed at the hearing, the prevailing party shall prepare a proposed order and comply with CRC 3.1312 subdivisions (a), (b), (d) and (e). The signed order shall be served on all parties and a proof of service filed with the court. A "notice of ruling" in lieu of this procedure is not authorized. Tentative Ruling The Court GRANTS the unopposed Petition to change names from Marcus Alan Silverberg Marcus Alan Silver. Petitioner is a 54-year old male (dob 4/30/1970), born in Encino and currently living in Westlake Village. The Petition and declaration are properly completed, signed and dated by Petitioner. He states that he is not under CDCR jurisdiction, and not required to register as a sex offender. There are CLETS hits related to employment and licensing applications with the State (DMV, etc.). The OSC required publication in the Tri County Sentry, which has taken place.

FL-18-000951 – BRIMHALL VS BRIMHALL Petitioner’s Request for Order re Change Venue—DENIED, without prejudice. There is no proof of service on file as required.  (Cal. Rules of Ct., rule 5.94(b).) This is a dissolution case in which a status-only judgment was filed on July 3, 2021, but no judgment on reserved issues has been entered, and Petitioner’s counsel recently withdrew.  Accordingly, individual party service of Respondent is mandatory and jurisdictional.  (Fam. Code, § 215(a).) That said, the parties’ Stipulation and Order of January 8, 2021, resolved Petitioner’s move-away request and resulted in an agreed move of Petitioner and the minor child to the county of San Diego.  Further, Petitioner alleges that Respondent no longer resides in this forum.  If true, then the Court has authority to transfer the case as requested to San Diego County based on the convenience of the parties and the ends of justice.  (Code Civ. Proc., § 397.5.)  The Court is inclined to grant the request based on this authority, but Respondent must either be properly served or else Respondent must personally appear and waive service.  Petitioner may attempt to demonstrate good cause to continue the hearing to obtain service of Respondent; otherwise, the request will be denied without prejudice and Petitioner will need to file and serve a new order request.

METZGER, SR. VS. METZGER, JR., ET AL. Case Number: 22CV-0201077 Tentative Ruling on Order to Show Cause Re Dismissal: An Order to Show Cause Re Dismissal (“OSC”) issued on May 28, 2024 by Judge Boeckman, pursuant to Gov’t Code § 68608(b) to Plaintiff and Counsel for failure to cure the defects noted by the Court on February 20, 2024. Plaintiff has not filed a response to the OSC. However, proof of service has been filed indicating that the Second Amended Complaint has been served on all parties. The OSC is DISCHARGED. No appearance is necessary on the 8:30 a.m. calendar. The Court confirms today’s 9:00 a.m. review hearing.

FL-23-001059 – NEWMAN VS NEWMAN Attorney for Petitioner’s Motion to Be Relieved—GRANTED, and unopposed. The Court finds that timely service and notice on the client are demonstrated by counsel’s declaration and proof of service, that counsel’s means of confirming the client’s current and correct address for mail service are sufficient, and that counsel’s declaration adequately sets forth grounds for involuntary withdrawal.  The Court further finds that there are no contested hearings on the merits set for the immediate future such that granting the motion is unlikely to result in prejudice to the client.  (Cal. Rules of Ct., rule 3.1362.)  Accordingly, the motion is granted; the effective date of the order relieving counsel shall be delayed until proof of service of the signed order on the client is filed with the Court.  (Id., rule 3.1362(e).)
