JASEN FRANK MEYN PRO PER MGA INSURANCE COMPANY, INC

PLAINTIFF: JASEN MEYN’S MOTION TO CONSOLIDATE ACTIONS (with 25CIV06981 - Complaint Filed: 09/22/25)

TENTATIVE RULING:

Plaintiff Jasen Frank Meyn’s Motion to Consolidate Actions is DENIED without prejudice.

Plaintiff seeks to consolidate this limited civil matter (25CLJ03993), which is assigned to Department 11 with unlimited civil matter 25CIV06981, which is assigned to Department 4. Plaintiff indicates that the unlimited civil matter should be the dominant case.

But Plaintiff has not complied with California Rule of Court 3.350 in any manner, including but not limited to, failing to comply with subsection (a)(1)(C), which requires that the motion be filed in each case sought to be consolidated. The same rules apply to Plaintiff despite his pro per status. Rappleyea v. Campbell (1994) 8 Cal. 4th 975, 984–85 (“[M]ere self-representation is not a ground for exceptionally lenient treatment. Except when a particular rule provides otherwise, the rules of civil procedure must apply equally to parties represented by counsel and those who forgo attorney representation.”).

Despite the two cases being more than one year old (in one case) and almost a year old (in the other case), Plaintiff has not yet successfully served them. Plaintiff has obligations to diligently prosecute his cases that he is not yet meeting.

Any party who contests a tentative ruling must email Dept.11@sanmateocourt.org with a copy to all other parties by 4:00 p.m. stating, without argument, the portion(s) of the tentative ruling that the party contests.

If the tentative ruling is uncontested, it shall become the order of the Court. The Court will prepare the Order.
