Ruling

California State Bar or is otherwise authorized to perform the particular activity pursuant to statute or court rule.

Petitioner shall submit a revised proposed final order consistent with this ruling and shall give notice.

8. 2019-1102209 McDonnell vs. Order to Show Cause re: Dismissal on Settled Case Ford Motor Company Motion for Attorney Fees is off calendar pursuant to Notice of Withdrawal filed.

9. 2025-1516057 Eslami vs. Case Management Conference Luna The general demurrer by Defendant Jessica Luna (“Luna”) to the First Amended Complaint (“Plaintiff”) filed by Plaintiff Naghi Eslami (“Plaintiff”) is sustained with leave to amend.

The Court notes Luna demurred to the FAC and not individually to each cause of action. As such, if a demurrer is overruled as to any cause of action, then the demurrer to the entire FAC shall be overruled. (See, Warren v. Atchison, T. & S. F. Ry. Co. (1971) 19 Cal.App.3d 24, 36.)

(State of California v. Superior Court (Bodde), supra, 32 Cal.4th at p. 1239, 13 Cal.Rptr.3d 534, 90 P.3d 116.)” (Gong v. City of Rosemead (2014) 226 Cal.App.4th 363, 374.)

“In order to comply with the claim presentation requirement, the facts alleged in a complaint filed in the trial court supporting a cause of action against a government employee, including the damages alleged to have been suffered by the claimant, must be
