Alliance United Insurance Company vs. Cousuelo Solorzano

Nature of Proceeding: Motion to Enforce Settlement

Filed By: Tapper, Brian P.

Plaintiff’s motion pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure §664.6 to enforce the settlement agreed to by defendant in pro per is UNOPPOSED and is GRANTED, as follows.

The notice of motion does not provide notice of the Court’s tentative ruling system, as required by Local Rule 1.06, and does not provide the correct address for Dept. 53/54. Moving counsel is directed to contact opposing party and advise him/her of Local Rule 1.06 and the Court’s tentative ruling procedure and the manner to request a hearing, along with the correct address for Dept. 53/54. If moving counsel is unable to contact opposing party prior to hearing, moving counsel is ordered to appear at the hearing in person or by telephone.

Moving counsel failed to comply with CRC Rule 3.1110(b)(3)-(4).

This is a collection action wherein the parties negotiated in 2017 a settlement which was memorialized in writing and signed by both parties. The settlement entails

defendant making monthly installment payments to satisfy the debt to plaintiff. According to the moving papers, defendant has made a number of payments but has stopped and is now in default of her payment obligations.

The Court notes that defendant failed to file any opposition, which is construed as a concession of the merits of the present motion and therefore, plaintiff’s motion to enforce the settlement is granted.

Having received no objection thereto, the Court will sign the proposed judgment submitted with the moving papers.
