RULING

On August 16, 2023, the Court determined that a bankruptcy filing stayed the action. The Court continued this motion to this hearing date including the order that: “The parties shall provide a status update prior to the continued hearing.”

Nothing has been filed to provide a status update.

There is no reason to believe that the bankruptcy stay has been lifted. (See Cal. Rules of Court, rule 3.650(d) [“When a stay is vacated, is no longer in effect, or is modified, the party who filed the notice of the stay must immediately serve and file a notice of termination or modification of stay. If that party fails to do so, any other party in the action who has knowledge of the termination or modification of the stay must serve and file a notice of termination or modification of stay.”].)

The Court will continue the hearing on the motion, sua sponte, to September 18, 2024, at 10am; the stay remains in effect; the Court orders a status update to be filed by September 10, 2024.
