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-19-002701 – WHITTAKER VS GRAY Petitioner’s Request for Order re Enforce Judgment, etc.—HEARING REQUIRED. The Court finds that proof of service is on file and reflects valid and timely individual mail service of Respondent as required.  (Fam. Code, § 215(a).)  Respondent did not file a Responsive Declaration or written opposition.  Consequently, the Court is inclined to grant the requested relief.  However, a final judgment is already an “order” that the parties are bound to comply with and a further order to comply by the Court would be redundant.  That said, Petitioner’s claims all relate to that part of the judgment dealing with division of pension plans and this has not been accomplished due to Respondent’s non-cooperation.  Accordingly, the Court will not further delay proceedings by again ordering Respondent’s cooperation and, instead, finds good cause to appoint the clerk of the Court as elisor to sign the QDRO and other necessary papers on Respondent’s behalf.  But Petitioner must first submit a proposed order with the exact documents to be signed attached to it for review and approval by the Court.  (Local Rules, rule 7.08(A).)  Petitioner is free to use all the means to obtain information provided by the Civil Discovery Act if documents or other information has not been provided by Respondent.  (Fam. Code, § 218.)  And the Court will reserve jurisdiction over the issue of monetary sanctions against Respondent for the necessity of Petitioner having to file post-judgment motions to obtain Respondent’s compliance.

Case Number: 24STCP01481 Hearing Date: July 15, 2024 Dept: 9 Petitioner must double check the spelling and legibility of the new name on the proposed decree.
