28 Relevant rules regarding Cross Complaints in California are as follows:
1
PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE
CCP 428.10: A party against whom a cause of action has been
asserted in a complaint or cross-complaint may file a cross-
complaint setting forth either or both of the following:
(a) Any cause of action he has against any of the parties who filed
the complaint or cross-complaint against him....
(b) Any cause of action he has against a person alleged to be liable
thereon, whether or not such person is already a party to the action,
if the cause of action asserted in his cross-complaint (1) arises out
of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or
occurrences as the cause brought against him or (2) asserts a claim,
right, or interest in the property or controversy which is the subject
of the cause brought against him.
CCP 428.20: When a person files a cross-complaint as authorized
by Section 428.10, he may join any person as a cross-complainant
10 or cross-defendant, whether or not such person is already a party to
11 the action, if, had the cross-complaint been filed as an independent
action, the joinder of that party would have
12 been permitted by the statutes governing joinder of parties.
13 CCP 428.50: (a) A party shall file a cross-complaint against any of
14 the parties who filed the complaint or cross-complaint against him
or her before or at the same time as the answer to the complaint or
15 cross-complaint.
(b) Any other cross-complaint may be filed at any time before the
16
court has set a date for trial.
17 (c) A party shall obtain leave of court to file any cross-complaint
except one filed within the time specified in subdivision (a) (b)
18 Leave may be granted in the interest of justice at any time during
the course of the action.
19
Evid Code §452(d) provides that judicial notice may be taken of “[rJecords of (1) any
20
3|2
sla
3|9 21 court of this state or (2) any court of record of the United States or of any state of the United
qa
22 States.” Evidence Code §453 provides that “[t]he trial court shall take judicial notice of any
23 matter specified in §452 if a party requests it and: (a) [g]ives each adverse party sufficient notice
24
of the request, through the pleadings or otherwise, to enable such adverse party to prepare to meet
25
the request; and (b) [fJurnishes the court with sufficient information to enable it to take judicial
26
27 notice of the matter.”

PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE
The attached operative pleading (See Exhibit A) and the entire docket (See Exhibit B) are
records of the Superior Court of California, County of Fresno, and are therefore judicially
noticeable under Evid Code §452(d).
The Exhibits are relevant to this action as the defendants A nswer, in its Sixth Affirmative
Defense, “...alleges that the matter complained of in plaintiff's complaint and the causes of action
therein, were solely caused by the actions or omissions of a third-party, or parties, other than this
answering defendant.” The sole operative complaint and the entire docket are relevant because
they demonstrate that the only operative complaint in this matter is the Third A mended Complaint
10
11 filed by the plaintiff. Defendants, as they are aware, had ample time to file a cross-complaint
12 against former co-defendant, Larry Matson, and the drivers of vehicles in former accidents where
13 plaintiff was a party in 2010 and 2014, but never did file said cross-complaint. But have from the
14
beginning of the suit blamed Matson and the other prior accidents for plaintiff’s injuries.
15
The Exhibits are further relevant to this action as the defendants Answer, in their Eighth
16
17 Affirmative Defense, “...alleges any non-economic damages sustained by plaintiff in this action
18 were due to the fault of someone other than CITY...” The sole operative complaint and the entire
19
docket are relevant because they demonstrate that the only operative complaint in this matter is
20
3|2 the Third Amended Complaint filed by the plaintiff. Defendants, as they are aware, had ample
sla
3|9 21
22
time to file a cross-complaint against former co-defendant, Larry Matson and the drivers of
qa
23 vehicles in former accidents where plaintiff was a party in 2010 and 2014, but never did file said
24 cross-complaint. But have from the beginning of the suit blamed Matson and the other prior
25
accidents for plaintiff’s injuries.
26
The Exhibits are further relevant to this action as the defendants A nswer, in their Fifteenth
27
28 Affirmative Defense, “...alleges the matter complained of in plaintiffs complaint and the causes
3
PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE
of action therein, were caused by the actions or omissions of an indispensable third-party, or
parties, who have not been named as defendants in plaintiffs complaint, and whose interests are
so involved such that the court cannot render judgment in their absence.” The sole operative
complaint and the entire docket are relevant because they demonstrate that the only operative
complaint in this matter is the Third Amended Complaint filed by the plaintiff. Defendants, as
they are aware, had ample time to file a cross-complaint against former co-defendant, Larry
Matson and the drivers of vehicles in former accidents where plaintiff was a party in 2010 and
2014, but never did file said cross-complaint. But have from the beginning of the suit blamed
10
11 Matson and the other prior accidents for plaintiff’s injuries.
