SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO
25CV024378: CAPITAL ONE, N.A. vs TRAN 06/15/2026 Hearing on Motion for Stipulated Judgment in Department 8C
If parties to pending litigation stipulate, in a writing signed by the parties outside of the presence of the court or orally before the court, for settlement of the case, or part thereof, the court, upon motion, may enter judgment pursuant to the terms of the settlement. (Code Civ. Proc. § 664.6(a).)
This is a debt collection action. Plaintiff and Defendant in pro per Emily Tran (Defendant) executed a written settlement agreement. (Dawson Decl., Exh. 1 (hereafter, Settlement Agreement).)
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the parties agreed that as of November 5, 2025, Defendant was indebted to Plaintiff in the amount of $10,075.91 plus court costs and that Plaintiff was entitled to entry of judgment in this amount. (Settlement Agreement, ¶¶ 2-3.) Judgment would not be entered so long as Defendant did not default on the terms of the Settlement Agreement. (Id. at ¶ 3.) Defendant was to pay the settlement amount in monthly installment payments as follows: (1) one payment of $168.00 due on or before November 14, 2025; (2) 58 consecutive monthly payments of $168.00 beginning on December 25, 2025 and continuing on the same day each month thereafter; and (3) a final payment of $163.91 due on or before October 25, 2030. (Id. at ¶ 4.)
If Defendant defaulted, Plaintiff would be entitled to file a motion to enter judgment in the full indebted amount of $10,075.91, plus court costs already incurred, plus additional court costs incurred in obtaining the judgment, less any payments made. (Ibid.)
Defendant has failed to make any payments on the Settlement Agreement and has thus defaulted. (Dawson Decl., ¶¶ 6-7.) Since Defendant has defaulted on the Settlement Agreement, Plaintiffs motion is GRANTED.
Judgment shall be entered in the amount of $10,544.91, representing the agreed upon indebted amount of $10,075.91, plus court costs of $469.00. (Dawson Decl., ¶ 8.) Since Defendant has not made any payments, no credit shall be applied.
The Court will sign the proposed order and proposed judgment submitted with the moving papers. Plaintiff shall provide notice of entry of the order and judgment.
