Calendar Matter: Notice Of Motion And Memorandum Of Points And Authorities In Support Of Motion To Set Aside Judgment

Rulings: The Matter is on calendar for Tuesday, February 20,2018, Line 2: PLAINTIFFS LENNY SEMIS and THE BILS FAMILY TRUST’S Motion To Set Aside Judgment. Plaintiffs Lenny Semis and Bils Family Trust’s motion to set aside the November 1, 2016 order granting costs and fees as sanctions is denied. The motion was filed at least seven months after the moving parties knew about the November 1, 2016 order and had stated that they would seek to have it vacated. Even if this court had authority to grant this motion more than six months after moving parties acknowledged that they knew about the November 1, 2016 order, the court exercises its discretion to deny the motion on the grounds that moving parties have not acted diligently and there is substantial reason to believe that they had notice of the motion that led to the November 1, 2016 order.
