Tentative Ruling
Re: In re: The Matter of Beau Krogen Superior Court Case No. 26CU00322
Hearing Date: May 12, 2026 (Dept. 501)
Motion: Petition to Compromise Minor’s Claim
Tentative Ruling:
To grant. Petitioner is directed to file new proposed orders within five days of service of the order by the clerk. No appearances necessary.
To set a status conference for Wednesday, August 19, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. in Department 403, for confirmation of deposit of the funds into a blocked account. If the Acknowledgment of Receipt of Order and Funds for Deposit in Blocked Account (MC- 356), at least five court days before the hearing, the status conference will come off calendar.
Explanation:
The Petition appears to be sufficiently stated. However, the proposed order approving the compromise has the following issues. As to Item 2, petitioner is referred to as the minor’s guardian ad litem and custodian. No such appointment has been ordered in connection with this Petition. As to Item 6, a selection must be made, and gross settlement amount reported. As to Item 8(b)(1), an amount should be reported. As to Item 9(a), the financial institution identified in the Petition should be reported.
Further, the proposed order to deposit funds needs attention at Item 4.
As to both orders, the hearing date should be specified.
Pursuant to California Rules of Court, Rule 3.1312 and Code of Civil Procedure section 1019.5, subdivision (a), no further written order is necessary. The minute order adopting this tentative ruling will serve as the order of the court and service by the clerk will constitute notice of the order.
