Motions for summary judgment: filing deadlines.

Abstract

Existing law requires a motion for summary judgment or summary adjudication in a civil action or proceeding to be served and filed at least 75 days before the hearing on the motion. Existing law requires an opposition to the motion to be served and filed at least 14 days before the hearing and a reply to the opposition to be served and filed at least 5 days before the hearing. This bill would change the deadline for a party to file a motion for summary judgment or summary adjudication to at least 81 days before the hearing on the motion. The bill would change the deadlines for filing an opposition to at least 20 days before the hearing and for filing a reply to at least 11 days before the hearing. The bill would prohibit a party from filing more than one motion for summary judgment against an adverse party without leave of court, as specified. The bill would also prohibit the introduction of new facts in a reply to an opposition to a motion for summary judgment, as specified.
