Conservatorship of Beverly J. Ribelin

Defendant William Versaci, or in the alternative for an order entering summary adjudication in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendant.

“A party may move for summary judgment in an action or proceeding if it is contended . . . that there is no defense to the action or proceeding.” (Code Civ. Proc., § 437c, subd. (a)(1).) “A plaintiff . . . has met that party’s burden of showing that there is no defense to a cause of action if that party has proved each element of the cause of action entitling the party to judgment on the cause of action. Once the plaintiff . . . has met that burden, the burden shifts to the defendant . . . to show that a triable issue of one or more material facts exists as to the cause of action or a defense thereto.” (Code Civ. Proc., § 437c, subd. (p); see also Aguilar v. Atlantic Richfield Co. (2001) 25 Cal.4th 826, 850 (Aguilar) [“a plaintiff bears the burden of persuasion that ‘each element of’ the ‘cause of action’ in question has been ‘proved,’ and hence that ‘there is no defense’ thereto”].)

Through the Complaint, Plaintiff asserts a cause of action for breach of contract against Mr. Versaci. The Court finds that Plaintiff has satisfied its initial burden of producing facts sufficient to make a prima facie showing as to each element of the claim. Mr. Versaci failed to file anything in opposition to the motion, and therefore fails to show a triable question of material fact requiring trial in the matter.

Based on the foregoing, the Motion is GRANTED.

The Court finds that Plaintiff has made a prima facie showing of damages in the amount prayed for through the Complaint ($10,372.32). The Court further finds that items listed on Plaintiff’s Memorandum of Costs, filed January 16, 2026, appear proper on their face. (See (Jones v. Dumrichob (1998) 63 Cal.App.4th 1258, 1267 [held: if the items listed in the memorandum of costs appear proper on their face, then the verified statement is prima facie evidence of their propriety].)

Based on the foregoing, the Court will sign the Proposed Order and Proposed Judgment.

PETITION FOR APPOINTMENT OF PROBATE CONSERVATOR OF THE PERSON

TENTATIVE RULING: The matter is CONTINUED to June 04, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. in Dept. B to permit Petitioner to file proof of personal service of the Citation, issued April 7, 2026, on the Conservatee as required pursuant to Probate Code sections 1823, subdivision (a) and 182. Petitioner is to submit Proposed order (GC-340) and letters (GC-350) for the Courts signature.

The Court notes that a Conservatorship of the Estate has been in place since 2019. By the instant Petition, Petitioner appears to seek a Conservatorship of the Person. In this context, the

Court concludes that the term “ESTATE” in Section 1(b) of the Petition is a scrivener’s error. If this is not the case, Petitioner shall appear to inform the Court of the true nature of the Petition.

Estate of Judith M. Franzi Price 21PR000119

REVIEW HEARING: STATUS OF ADMINISTRATION

APPEARANCE REQUIRED: On November 7, 2025, the Court ordered Petitioner to file a Status Report prior to this date. The status report was to focus on efforts taken, and results obtained, between then and May 07, 2026, in selling the remaining real properties and should provide an estimate for closing the estate. Petitioner has filed nothing since that date and therefore, is ordered to appear to update the Court on the status of the case.
