12 REQUEST FOR ORDER RE: ATTORNEY FEES AND COSTS; REQUEST FOR ORDER:
13 PROPERTY CONTROL
14 TENTATIVE RULING
15 Having read and considered the pleadings, declarations, and other evidence submitted in this matter, the
16 Court makes the following findings and orders:
17 A. Procedural History
18 1) On for hearing is Petitioner’s Request for Order filed 2/21/2024 seeking exclusive temporary use,
19 possession, and control of the leased property located at 635 Quintara St. San Francisco, CA
20 94116.
21 2) On 4/12/2024, Respondent filed a Responsive Declaration asking the Court to deny Petitioner’s
22 request for exclusive control of the Quintara St. property.
23 3) Also on for hearing is Respondent’s Request for Order filed 2/26/2024 requesting $20,000 in
24 need-based attorney’s fees and costs.
25 4) On 6/27/2024, Petitioner filed an FL-320 Judicial Council Form Responsive Declaration stating
26 that he does not consent to Respondent’s requested orders. The Responsive Declaration form
27 references a “Declaration of Alexander Kashtan attached hereto,” but no such substantive
28 declaration is attached to the Responsive Declaration form. Only Exhibit A, a Premarital
29 Agreement, is attached to the FL-320 Form.
1 B. Findings and Orders
2 1) Per the Temporary Restraining Order filed 4/2/2024 in related Case No. FDV-24-817501,
3 Petitioner (Mr. Kashtan) was ordered to vacate the property located at 635 Quintara St. San
4 Francisco, CA 94116. There is a hearing set for 8/14/2024 at 1:45 PM in Dept. 404 in the FDV
5 case on Respondent (Ms. Milnar)’s Request for Domestic Violence Restraining Order. Because
6 there is currently an order in place restricting Petitioner (Mr. Kashtan)’s access to the Quintara St.
7 property, the hearing on Petitioner (Mr. Kashtan)’s Request for Order filed 2/21/2024 is hereby
8 continued to 8/15/2024 at 1:45 PM to join the hearing on Respondent (Ms. Milnar)’s Request for
9 Domestic Violence Restraining Order. The Court’s 4/2/2024 Temporary Restraining Order will
10 remain in place until this 8/15/24 hearing.
11 2) Respondent’s attorney has not filed a declaration providing the Court or Petitioner with
12 “sufficient information about the attorney's hourly billing rate; the nature of the litigation; the
13 attorney's experience in the particular type of work demanded; the fees and costs incurred or
14 anticipated; and why the requested fees and costs are just, necessary, and reasonable,” as required
15 by California Rules of Court, rule 5.427(b)(2). The hearing on Respondent’s request for need-
16 based attorney’s fees is hereby continued to Thursday, 9/26/2024 at 9:00 AM in Dept. 404. At
17 least 20 calendar days prior to the next hearing date, Respondent’s attorney shall file and serve
18 the requisite attorney declaration. Petitioner may file and serve a responsive declaration at least
19 10 calendar days prior to the next hearing date. Respondent may file and serve a reply declaration
20 at least 5 calendar days prior to the next hearing date.
21 3) Petitioner’s attorney shall prepare the order.
22 4) Preparation of Order: If you are directed by the court to prepare the order after hearing – within
23 10 calendar days of the hearing you must either: (a) Serve the proposed order to the other
24 party/counsel for approval, and follow the procedures set forth in CA Rules of Court, Rule
25 5.125(c), or (b) If the other party did not appear or the matter was uncontested, submit the
26 proposed order after hearing directly to the court. Failure to submit the order after hearing within
27 10 days may allow the other party to prepare a proposed order and submit it to the court in
28 accordance with CA Rules of Court, Rule 5.125(d).
