SF Superior Court - Real Property / Housing Dept 501 - CUD26682749 - August 25, 2026 Hearing date: August 25, 2026 Case number: CUD26682749 Case title: CAROLYN CHAN VS. JOHNSON CHAN ET AL Case Number: | | CUD26682749 | Case Title: | | CAROLYN CHAN VS. JOHNSON CHAN ET AL | Court Date: | | 2026-08-25 09:30 AM | Calendar Matter: | | DEMURRER to Amended COMPLAINT | Rulings: | | On the Real Property/Housing Court Motion calendar for August 25, 2026, line 8.

Defendant's Demurrer to Amended Complaint is SUSTAINED with leave to amend for Plaintiff to allege that the majority vote of all acting co-Trustees was to terminate the Defendant's occupancy.

The Court notes that Defendant demurs to the second cause of action. There is no second cause of action in the complaint on file. It appears that Plaintiff combined two district grounds for recovery of possession into one cause of action, CCP 1161(1) and 1161(3), which renders the complaint uncertain and caused a demurrer to a cause of action that is not separately labeled. =(501/CFH)
