PLAINTIFF JIA CHEN, AN INDIVIDUAL, WENJI CHEN, XUAN CHEN, SHOUCHUN HONG, LIANG KONG, LYU MENG, PACIFIC SUN RESOURCES INC, A BVI BUSINESS COMPANY, LIXIN QIU, JIE SHEN, HUAQING SUN, ZHONGWEI ZHU MOTION FOR SUMMARY ADJUDICATION / Notice Of Motion And Motion For Summary Adjudication Of The First Cause Of Action For Breach Of Contract is DENIED.

Moving party failed to shift their burden and establish that CE-GH's non-payment of interest and principal damaged Plaintiffs in the amount of $7,791,164.55 (Fact 20). No competent evidence provided as to the calculation of interest. Objection number 4 to Paragraph 17 of Petrozziello Declaration is SUSTAINED. Furthermore, Plaintiffs disputed/denied Defendant's Additional fact number 7.

The Court does not reach the issue raised in the supplemental briefing. The Court notes that opposition to the motion for summary judgment is not a proper mechanism to address discovery issues such as mistaken/incorrect/wrong/caused by lack of notice/caused by misunderstanding responses to requests for admissions. Discovery is governed by the Discovery Act and must be addressed under this Act. Defendant's objections to Petrozziello Declaration (except for objection number 4) are overruled. =(501/CFH)
