3.? r \ . SUPERIOR COURT, QIATE OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY b; STANISLAUS LAIRD JOHNSON. VS. DEBRA JOHNSON F PLAINTIFF DEFENDANT ~ .JUDGE: STACY P. SPEILLER Case 2003744 Clerk: Kathy Gabrielson Date 09/04/19 RULING ON DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION This matter came‘on calendar on August 13,‘20l9 for Defendant’s Motion for Reconsideration of Portions of the Court's May 23, 2019 Order. Appearing on behalf of the Plaintiff was Janlynh R. Fleener, Esq, and appearing on behalf of the Defendant was Michael R. Dennis, Esq.- After the posting‘of the Court’s tentative ruling, Defense Counsel requested a hearing. Upon conclusion of the hearing, the Court took the 'motion under submission- After further consideration, the‘Court renders its‘ruling as follows: The‘June 10, 2019 motionrfor reconsideratidn of the‘order that was mailed to the parties on May 23, 2019 is untimely- Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, subdivision (a), states that the deadline for filing a motiOn for reconsideration begins‘when the order is “serv[ed],” not when the order is received, as Defendant implies. Also, Defendant's suggestion that the proof of service attached to the May 23, 2019‘order is incorrect fails to‘rebut the presumption of regularity that attaches to a‘document executed by a court clerk. (Evidence Code, §664.) The proof of service clearly indicates that the clerk addressed the envelope, and said envelope Was sealed and poStage thereon fully prepaid, and deposited into the United States mail. Counsel for Plaintiff also confirmed receipt of said order by mail. The matter is jarisdictional. Because the motion is untimely, the Court may not and therefore does not consider its merits. (Code of Civil Procedure, §1008, Subdivision (e).) The Court declines to exercise discretion to sua sponte reconsider thé issues raised in the untimely motion. (Le Francois v.
