2 30-2021-01210888 The tentative ruling is to continue the Final Report Hearing to Sanchez vs. DTB December 21, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. to confirm that the amount of the Investments, Inc. uncashed checks after the check-cashing deadline has been delivered to the State Controller’s Office Unclaimed Property Fund in the names of the applicable payees, that the Administrator’s work is complete, and that the court’s file thus may be closed. All supporting papers must be filed at least 16 days before the Final Report Hearing date.

The court also issues an Order to Show Cause why the court should not impose monetary sanctions against plaintiff’s counsel for failing to comply with the court’s order of September 8, 2025 to file all supporting papers for the Final Report Hearing at least 16 days before the Final Report Hearing date.

3 30-2023-01313532 The tentative ruling is to continue the hearing on Plaintiff Omid Giahi vs. Xpress Giahi’s (“Plaintiff”) Motion for Final Approval of Class Action Med Pharmacy, Inc. and PAGA Settlement to November 23, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Counsel must file supplemental papers addressing the court’s concerns (not fully revised papers that would have to be re-read) at least 16 days before the next hearing date.

In Plaintiff’s April 13, 2026 supplemental brief, Plaintiff stated that a supplemental declaration would be provided by Plaintiff’s counsel Jonathan LaCour, and a supplemental declaration by the settlement administrator’s representative, Chantal Soto-Najera. However, neither declaration was filed with the court. Accordingly: • There is still no documentation of the litigation costs to support the $5,684.17 costs request. • There is also no evidence of the high, low and average payments to be paid to aggrieved employees. • There is also no evidence of the names of the two putative class members who opted out and thus will not be bound by the judgment.

The court also issues an Order to Show Cause why the court should not impose monetary sanctions against plaintiff’s counsel for failing to comply with the court’s order of April 27, 2026 to file supplemental papers addressing the court’s concerns at least 16 days before the August 31, 2026 hearing. The hearing is set for November 23, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Any response to the OSC must be filed at least a week before the hearing.

Plaintiff is ordered to give notice of the ruling to the LWDA and Defendants.
