This demurrer isbased on this notice, the accompanying memorandum, and all papers and records on file in this action, and such evidence, both oral and documentary, as may be presented at the hearing of this demurrer. OBJECTIONS TO THE COMPLAINT Defendants ELYSTINA GARCIA, ILIDIO GARCIA, and JAMES CODY TAYLOR, demur on each of the following grounds: 10 11 Objections to the Fourth Cause of Action — Waste 12 The Fourth Cause of Action does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action 13 against Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and James Cody Taylor.

INTRODUCTION 23 This Memorandum is submitted on behalf of Defendants Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, 24 and James Cody Taylor only in support of their motion for demurrer of the Fourth and Fifth 25 Causes of Action to the First Amended Complaint filed by Plaintiff Harry Dhesi on August 20, 26 2020. Co-defendant Mary Garcia will file a separate responsive pleading. 27 28 1 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint The party against whom a complaint or cross-complaint has been filed may object to the pleading by demurrer or answer as provided in CCP § 430.30. A complaint or cross-complaint is subject to demurrer for the reasons stated in CCP § 430.10 including but not limited to: 1) The pleading does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action and; 2) The pleading is uncertain. As used in this subdivision, ‘uncertain’ includes ambiguous and unintelligible. The function of a demurrer is to test the legal sufficiency of a pleading. (Hegyes v. Unjian (delete underline, except for case name) Enterprises, Inc., (2d Dist. 1991) 234 Cal. App. 3d 1103, 1111, 286 Cal. Rptr. 85.) In reviewing the sufficiency of a complaint against a general demurrer, the court treats the demurrer as admitting allmaterial facts properly pleaded, as well as 10 matters which may be judicially noticed. Contentions, deductions or conclusions of fact or law Ll are insufficient to constitute a cause of action. (Adelman vy.Associated Intern. Ins. Co., (2d Dist. 12 2001) 90 Cal. App. 4th 352, 359, 108 Cal. Rptr. 2d 788.) Additionally, the court treats as true the 13 contents of any exhibits attached to the complaint. (Bld. Permit Consultants, Inc. v. Mazur, 14 (2004) 122 Cal. App. 4" 1400, 1409, 19 Cal. Rptr. 3d 562, 568.) And where the exhibits 15 contradict the pleadings, the facts as stated in the exhibits supersede inconsistent and contrary 16 allegations in the pleadings. (/d.) 17 A demurrer will succeed when a complaint fails to state a claim which constitutes a cause 18 of action where the allegations in the complaint are too vague or uncertain to state a cause of 19 action. Green v. Uccelli (1989) 207 Cal. App. 3d 1112, 1119, 255 Cal. Rptr. 315. 20 Elystina and Ilidio are siblings and the children of co-defendant Mary Garcia. Plaintiff 21 alleges that Elystina, Illidio, and Mr. Taylor resided at 506 I Street, Lincoln, CA (the Residence) 22 between November 2016 and August 2018. Elystina was born on May 14, 2001. For the entire 23 time she was alleged to live at the Residence, she was a minor. Illidio was born on April 17, 24 2004. For the entire time he was alleged to live at the Residence, he was a minor. (See Request 25 for Judicial Notice electronically filed July 7, 2020). The status of Elystina and Ilidio as minors 26 is acknowledged by Plaintiff in his First Amended Complaint. (First Amended Complaint 27 Paragraph 3; Fourth Cause of Action; Fifth Cause of Action.) 28 2 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint In November 2019, Plaintiff filed a complaint against Mary Garcia, Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and co-defendant James Taylor. The firstthree causes of action are against Mary Garcia only. The Fourth and Fifth causes of action are against Mary Garcia, Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and James Cody Taylor. Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and James Taylor filed a Demurrer to the Fourth and Fifth causes of action of the Complaint on July 10, 2020. In response to the defendants Demurrer, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint on August 20, 2020. Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint repeats nearly verbatim the causes of action inthe original complaint. As with the original complaint, Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint is 10 ambiguous, and relies on contentions, deductions, and conclusions of law and fact. Further, 11 Plaintiff s reliance on the same allegations for each cause of action routinely fails to state a cause 12 of action. Additionally, Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint includes facts which contradict 13 allegations and which state a clear defense barring recovery. 14 As with the initialcomplaint, Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint has five causes of 15 action. The first three causes of action are against Mary Garcia only. The fourth (Waste) and fifth 16 (Conversion) causes of action are against Mary Garcia on her behalf and on behalf of her minor 17 children Elystina Garcia, [lidio Garcia, and Defendant James Cody Taylor.. 18 Elystina and Ilidio Garcia, and James Cody Taylor demurrer to both the fourth and the 19 fifth causes of action because Plaintiff failsto state a cause of action against them. 20 21 II. GROUNDS FOR DEMURRER 22 Grounds for Demurrer of Fourth Cause of Action: Waste 23 “To constitute waste, there must be an injury to the inheritance (Civ. Code § 818), 24 substantially depreciating the market value of the property.” (Civ. Code § 385) (What 25 Constitutes Waste, 12 Witkin, Summary 11th Real Prop § 385 (2019).) California Civil Code 26 section 826 provides that a person having an estate in remainder or reversion may maintain an 27 action for any injury done to the inheritance. Injury to the inheritance is defined as permanently 28 3 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff’s First Amended Complaint or substantially depreciating the value of the property. (Eastman v.Peterson (1968) 268 Cal.App.2d 169, 175, 73 Cal-Rptr. 803; Sallee v. Daneri (1942) 49 Cal. App.2d 324, 327, 121 P.2d 781; Smith v. Cap Concrete, Inc. (1982) 133 Cal.App.3d 769, 776-777, 184 Cal.Rptr. 308.) Plaintiff states no cause of action against Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, or James Taylor. The Fourth Cause of Action — Waste, is against Mary Garcia on her behalf and on behalf of her minor children Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and Defendant James Cody Taylor. Additionally, Paragraph 52 alleges that “Defendants Mary Elizabeth Garcia was under a duty to preserve and protect the property from third parties such as Defendant James Cody Taylor and her minor children Elystina Garcia and Ilidio Garcia,...” Plaintiff does not allege in 10 the First Amended Complaint that Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and James Cody Taylor had a 11 duty to preserve and protect the property. 12 Plaintiff alleges in paragraph 53 that James Taylor was “allowed to live” at the property 13 by Defendant Mary Garcia. Plaintiff makes no allegation that Taylor had any possessory 14 interest. Plaintiff’s allegations failas to allthree defendants. 15 To establish a claim for waste, the damage alleged must substantially or permanently 16 diminish the value of the property. Plaintiff utterly fails to allege facts which if proven as true, 17 would show substantial damage to the value of the property due to failure to pay utility bills, 18 failure to irrigate the property, or maintaining the swimming pool as alleged in Paragraph 54. 19 These allegations, if true, would constitute only a temporary condition, but would not cause 20 depreciation to the value of the property sufficient to constitute a claim for waste. (Rowe v. Wells 21 Fargo Realty Servs., Inc., (Ct. App. 1985) 166 Cal. App. 3d 310, 320, 212 Cal. Rptr. 374, 379.) 22 While California CC section 1714.1 imputes liability on a parent for the acts of the 23 minors under their care and control, there is no such law that imputes liability on a minor for the 24 acts of their parents or other adults in their household. 25 Paragraph 54 alleges that all Defendants failed to pay utility charges, however, Paragraph 26 7 of the First Amended Complaint specifically states that both Mary Garcia and her roommate 27 Jeffrey Clelio Bellotti agreed to pay these bills in exchange for a tenancy at the Residence. As 28 4 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint modified in June 21, 2018, the oral contract provided that only Mary Garcia agreed to pay for the utility bills (First Amended Complaint Paragraph 9).Further, as stated above, minors are prohibited from contracting for an interest in real property, so Elystina and Ilidio could not have agreed to pay utility bills in exchange for tenancy and Elystina and Ilidio cannot be held liable for their mother’s alleged failure to pay bills that she agreed to pay in exchange for tenancy at the Residence. Mr. Taylor never agreed to pay utility charges, and so cannot be held liable for damages caused by alleged non-payment. All bills were in Mary Garcia’s name. (First Amended Complaint Paragraphs 7, 19.) Plaintiff fails to state how Defendants’ failure to pay bills in Mary Garcia’s name caused damage or waste to his real property. 10 In paragraphs 12, 13, 15, 22, 26, 27, 36, and 53, Plaintiff alleges that Defendant James il Cody Taylor caused damage to the upstairs bathroom, the sprinkler system, and the pool, and 12 Elystina and Ilidio’s mother allowed this to happen. Elystina and Ilidio are not liable for the 13 alleged actions of their mother or of James Taylor, another adult living at the Residence. 14 In support of his claim for punitive damages, Plaintiff alleges that Elystina and Ilidio 15 Garcia, and Mr. Taylor acted intentionally, oppressively, and with an evil motive to vex, injure, 16 harass, and/or annoy Plaintiff and to cause severe emotional distress.” (First Amended Complaint 17 Paragraph 59.) These are purely conclusory statements with no facts to support Plaintiff's 18 contentions. 19 Plaintiff claims Elystina and Ilidio Garcia and Mr. Taylor are subject to treble damages 20 pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §732. (First Amended Complaint Paragraph 60) 21 California Code of Civil Procedure section 732 provides for ajudgment for treble damages 22 where a “guardian, conservator, tenant for life or years, jointtenant, or tenant in common of real 23 property, commit waste thereon...” A transfer of real property interest for life years, as joint 24 tenant or tenant in common must be in writing. (Civ. Code § 1624(a)(3).) As alleged in 25 paragraphs 7 and 51 of the First Amended Complaint, no one but Mary Garcia was given an 26 interest inthe property. Thus, Elystina and Ilidio Garcia and Mr. Taylor did not have a 27 possessory interest, and so did not have a tenancy for years, or a life estate; they do not have any 28 5 Elystina Garcia, Iidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint tenancy at all as they were minors who could not enter into contracts for any interest of real property. (Civ. Code § 6701.) Therefore, they are not subject to treble damages under California Civil Code section 732. Without apossessory interest, Elystina and Iidio Garcia and Mr. Taylor had no duty to preserve the property. Additionally, Elystina and Ilidio Garcia cannot be held liable for the actions of their parent. Therefore, Elystina and Ilidio Garcia and Mr. Taylor are not liable for any of the alleged waste. The Court should sustain this demurrer because Plaintiff is not entitled to damages from Elystina and Ilidio Garcia and Mr. ‘l'aylor. Grounds for Demurrer of Fifth Cause of Action (Conversion) Grounds for Demurrer of Fifth Cause of Action (Conversion) 10 To plead a cause of action for conversion, the plaintiff must establish (1) plaintiffs’ 11 ownership or right to possession of the property at the time of the conversion; (2) defendants’ 12 conversion by a wrongful act or disposition of plaintiffs' property rights; and (3) damages. 13 (Baldwin v. Marina City Properties, Inc., (Ct. App. 1978) 79 Cal. App. 3d 393, 410, 145 Cal. 14 Rptr. 406, 416.). (Demurrer granted for failure to properly allege conversion damages.) 15 Plaintiff's claim of conversion is subject to a demurrer because Plaintiff fails to allege 16 sufficient facts to state a cause of action for conversion and conspiracy to commit conversion, 17 and the First Amended Complaint isvague and ambiguous. 18 Plaintiff states no cause of action against Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, or James Taylor. 19 The Fifth Cause of Action — Conversion, is against Mary Garcia on her behalf and on behalf of 20 her minor children Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, and Defendant James Cody Taylor. 21 Plaintiff failsto allege facts to support the third element of conspiracy: i.e.damages. CC 22 § 3336, states damages as the value at the time and place of conversion plus interest or 23 alternatively, faircompensation for time and money expended in pursuit of property. A measure 24 of replacement value is not a proper measure of damages, although replacement value may be a 25 factor in determining actual value. (See Baldwin, Id. at 393; Franklin v. Municipal Court, (Ct. 26 App. 1972) 26 Cal.App.3d 884, 902, 103, Cal.Rptr. 354; Cal. Civ. Prac. Torts § 15:10; and 27 Chatterton v. Boone, (1947) 81 Cal. App. 2d 943, 947, 185 P.2d 610, 612.) 28 6 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint Exhibit 13 of the First Amended Complaint listsa value of each item allegedly sold by Elystina, Ilidio, Mr. Taylor, Mary Garcia and/or and Does 1-40, but Plaintiff fails to establish that the amount listed in Exhibit 13 is the value at the time and place of conversion and not the replacement value of each item. Additionally, Plaintiff alleges real property darnage as a result of the conversion. (First Amended Complaint Paragraph 67.) This too is in violation of CC §3336. A plaintiff cannot recover real property damages for conversion of personal property. Paragraph 69, seeks recovery for punitive damages. Punitive damages are only available where plaintiff shows by clear and convincing evidence that defendant was guilty of oppression, fraud or malice. (Civ. Code § 3294(a); Krieger v. Pacific Gas & Elec. Co. (1981) 119 CA3d 137, 10 148, 173 CR 751, 757-758) Plaintiff has failed to allege facts showing by clear and convincing 11 evidence that defendants are guilty of oppression, fraud or malice, but rather states in a 12 conclusory manner that defendants Elystina, Illidio, and Mr. Taylor acted “intentionally, 13 oppressively, and with an evil motive to vex, injure, harass, and/ or annoy Plaintiff.” Thus, 14 Plaintiff has failed to state a claim for punitive damages. 15 A claim of civil conspiracy isnot a separate tort cause of action, but rather a way to join 16 all co-defendants in liability for the tort stated in the cause of action. (Applied Equip. Corp. v. 17 Litton Saudi Arabia Ltd., (1994) 7 Cal. 4ths 503, 511, 869 P.2d 454, 457.) 18 For Plaintiff to establish a claim of conspiracy, he must allege Defendant had knowledge 19 of and agreed to both the objective and the course of action that resulted in the injury, that there 20 was a wrongful act committed pursuant to that agreement, and that there was resulting damage. 21 (Spencer v. Mowat, 46 Cal. App. 5th 1024, 1036, 260 Cal. Rptr. 3d 372, 383 (Ct. App. 2020). 22 Civil conspiracy claims are subject to a heightened pleading standard, demanding that a plaintiff 23 allege specific facts “containing evidence of unlawful intent, or face dismissal of the claim.” 24 (Buckey v.Cnty. ofLos Angeles, (9th Cir. 1992) 968 F.2d 791, 794; (Ponomarenko v. Shapiro, 25 (N.D. Cal. 2018). 287 F. Supp. 3d 816, 831.) 26 The First Amended Complaint fails to allege facts to show that each defendant named 27 had individual knowledge of an agreement to convert the personal property described from Mr. 28 7 Elystina Garcia, Ilidio Garcia, James Cody Taylor Memorandum In Support of Demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint Dhesi’s possession. In addition, the language of the claim, as pled, is unclear and ambiguous. In particular, the language used in Paragraph 62 states, “at a time that Defendants, and each of them, at the time of Defendants, and each of their, actions Defendants, and each of them, had control over the items listed in ‘Exhibit 13’...” isso ambiguous and confusing that defendants Elystina, Ilidio, and Mr. Taylor cannot reasonably formulate an answer to this allegation. By failing to state facts with the required specificity to show conspiracy, Plaintiff fails to allege any facts at all that supports a claim that either Elystina, [lidio, or Mr. Taylor committed conversion. Instead, Plaintiff depends on his theory of conspiracy listing each defendant including “Does 1-40” as an “and/or” combination (First Amended Complaint Paragraphs 62-69) 10 without ever specifying which defendant actually did the act. Elystina, Ilidio and Mr. Taylor 11 cannot be held liable for damages suffered by Plaintiff due to conversion that may or may not 12 have resulted from the acts of “Does 1-40.” 13 Because Plaintiff fails to allege facts sufficient to state a cause of action for conversion 14 and conspiracy to commit conversion, the court should sustain the demurrer. iD Il. CONCLUSION 16 Based upon the foregoing, defendants, Elystina and Illido Garcia and Mr. Taylor, submit 17 that Plaintiff has failed to state facts sufficient to constitute valid causes of action in itsFirst 18 Amended Complaint, and therefore respectfully request that their demurrer to each cause of 19 action in the First Amended Complaint be sustained without leave to amend. 20 Dated: 21 Respectfully submitted, 22 23 24 Date: X/ LX ZA FO Legal Services of Northern California 25 By: C.
