Ruling

As previously ordered by this Court on 8/5/2026, the Plaintiff is ordered to arrange a meeting pursuant to Orange County Superior Court Local Rule 317 prior to Monday’s (8/10/2026) Pretrial & Jury Trial Hearing at 8:30 AM.

9 30-2026-01583269 The Court has read and considered the Defendant’s Demurrer to the La Habra Woods Complaint for Unlawful Detainer and Motion to Strike (ROA 13), the Associates vs. Complaint (ROA 2) and the Plaintiff’s Opposition (ROA 21). Rodriguez It is apparent to this Court that the Defendant used a boilerplate motion found online without changing the contents to match the facts in the case. For example, on page 2 of the Defendant’s motion, it says “Paragraph 10.a(3) of the main Complaint pleading stated that the alleged 3-day notice was posted at the door on 8/01/2022” but that is not factually accurate, as the Complaint (ROA 2) answers that question with posting occurring on “06/09/2026”.

Additionally, the Defendant’s moving papers say that the Complaint is a violation of “Los Angeles City Ordinance 186606,” which is not applicable as the premises are located in the City of La Habra in the County of Orange.

The Court DENIES the Motion to Strike. The Court OVERRULES the Demurrer.

The Court orders the Defendant to file an Answer within 5 calendar days.

The Plaintiff is ordered to provide notice of the Court’s ruling.

Defendant Matteo James Joseph aka Matvey Kirillovich Yozhikov filed this demurrer stating that the other two defendants vacated the premises on June 19, 2026 (Nicholas Temmermand) and June 25, 2026 (Susan Jo Joseph).

The Proof of Service (ROA 8) signed by registered process server David Cunningham (Orange County #1895) shows personal service of Susan Jo Joseph at the premises address (635 Nyes Place, Laguna Beach, CA 92651) on July 19, 2026 at 9:30 AM, which is after the date on which Mr. Joseph alleges that she vacated the premises.
