|
| October 03, 2019 | Docket Event |
Tentative ruling adopted and becomes order: MOTION FOR ATTORNEY FEES AS SANCTIONS AGAINST ANDY SABERI AND JAMES DOMBROSKI Defendant BJ Interstate Auto Transporters, Inc.'s (BJ Interstate) 8-16-19 "Motion for Attorney's Fees as Sanctions," filed pursuant to Code Civ. Proc. 128.5, is DENIED, for the reasons set forth below. First, the motion is a belated motion for reconsideration. Code Civ. Proc. 1008(b). On 10-10-18, Plaintiff dismissed its entire case against BJ Interstate. Thereafter, on 4-5-19, BJ Interstate moved for sanctions against Plaintiff under Code Civ. Proc. 128.5, asserting the same arguments it now rehashes here. BJ Interstate argued in the prior motion, inter alia, that Plaintiff knew or should have known from the day he filed this case, and certainly from the time Plaintiff filed his First Amended Complaint (FAC), that his claim(s) against BJ Interstate had no merit, and yet Plaintiff continued pursuing its case against BJ until two days prior to the scheduled trial date. The Court already considered this argument and, on 5-20-19, denied BJ's previous motion for 128.5 sanctions. 5-20-19 Minute Order. The present motion is indistinguishable from the prior motion. Because it was not filed within 10 days of the Court's 5-20-19 Minute Order, it is untimely. Code Civ. Proc. 1008. Second, and as separate grounds for denying the motion, as stated in the Court's 5-20-19 Minute Order, BJ Interstate failed to comply with 128.5's safe harbor provision. As it argued in its prior motion for sanctions, BJ Interstate again contends Plaintiff persisted in pursuing a clearly meritless Complaint and First Amended Complaint (FAC), despite knowing that co-defendant Dedyk was insured at the time of loss, which purportedly barred any suit against BJ Interstate. 128.5 requires that the offending party be given an opportunity to withdraw the offending pleading. 128.5(f)(1)(B). BJ Interstate has not alleged compliance with this procedural requirement. Indeed, Plaintiff could not have withdrawn any offending pleading, because Plaintiff dismissed BJ Interstate from the case long before this motion was filed. Further, the motion appears based in part on Plaintiff's discovery responses. 128.5 does not apply to discovery requests, responses, objections and discovery motions. 128.5(e). For at least the foregoing reasons, the motion is DENIED. BJ Interstate's 9-26-19 Evidentiary Objection to Parag. 12 of the Dombroski Decl. is OVERRULED, and its related 9-26-19 "Motion to Strike" is DENIED. The Court notes, however, that Parag. 12 of the Dombroski is irrelevant to the Court's ruling on this motion. Continuing the parties' seemingly never-ending request for sanctions against one another, Plaintiff requests sanctions against BJ Interstate for having had to oppose this motion. In the Court's discretion, Plaintiff's request is DENIED. |
