DEMURRER to COMPLAINT
Real Property/Housing Court Law and Motion Calendar for April 28, 2026. Line 12.
DEFENDANT SEAN BULLARD DEMURRER to COMPLAINT is SUSTAINED in part with leave to amend within five days of notice of entry of order. The demurrer is sustained on the grounds that the Complaint is uncertain regarding the allegations in Paragraphs 9(b), 10(a), and 10(a)(4) only.
The Court notes that Plaintiff's opposition repeatedly emphasizes that Defendant does not, in this demurrer, deny the allegations of the Complaint. However, as Plaintiff himself points out, a demurrer cannot challenge the truth of the factual allegations of the Complaint. Plaintiff's opposition seems to be based, in part, on additional facts that are not apparent on the face of the Complaint. Such facts outside of the Complaint cannot be considered on demurrer. =(501/CFH)
