~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~TENTATIVE RULING~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BACKGROUND

Plaintiff/Cross-Defendant Mansour Barghi (“Mansour”) owns and operates a restaurant, “Mr.
Kabob” in Burbank, CA. Mansour alleges that he “discovered” that Defendant/Cross-
Complainant Kasra Barghi (“Kasra”) formed a limited liability company named “Mr. Kabob,”
and designated himself a 50% shareholder and “manager.” Kasra is the adult son of Mansour.
Mansour denies any business association with the LLC formed by Kasra.

Mansour alleges that Kasra represents himself as the owner of Mr. Kabob and “steals” money
from the cash register. Kasra also allegedly destroyed certain property on the premises.
Mansour further alleges that he owns two single family residences in Woodland Hills, CA.
Mansour lives in one of the homes and rents the second property. Mansour alleges that Kasra has
been improperly collecting the rents on the income property from tenants.

The Complaint alleges that on an unspecified day, Kasra “fraudulently convinced” Mansour to
transfer title in the two properties to Defendant/Cross-Complainant Barghi Real Estate
Investments, LLC (“Barghi Real Estate”). On July 24, 2017, Kasra transferred the titles to
Defendant entity Dimlux, LLC (“Dimlux”). Kasra is the identified “managing member” of
Barghi Real Estate, and Jane Un (“Un”) is the identified “managing member” of Dimlux.
