The page numbering must begin with the first page and use only Arabic numerals (e.g., 1, 2, 3). The page number may be suppressed and need not appear on the first page. Rule 2.109 amended effective January 1, 2017; adopted effective January 1, 2007.
This Order shall govern the procedure for the filing of all Motions for Summary Judgment. Parties are prohibited from filing a Motion and a separate Brief. All argument and citation of authority shall be combined into the Motion. Motions and response briefs shall not exceed 20 pages, double spaced.
Under the revised rules: Motions and supporting papers must now be served at least 81 days before the hearing. Opposition briefs will be due 20 days before the hearing. Reply briefs will be due 11 days before the hearing.
In a summary judgment or summary adjudication motion, no opening or responding memorandum may exceed 20 pages. No reply or closing memorandum may exceed 10 pages.
(4) A party shall not bring more than one motion for summary judgment against an adverse party to the action or proceeding. This limitation does not apply to motions for summary adjudication.
(b) Time to File a Motion. Unless a different time is set by local rule or the court orders otherwise, a party may file a motion for summary judgment at any time until 30 days after the close of all discovery.
“The motion for summary judgment shall be granted if all the papers submitted show that there is no triable issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law.” (Code Civ. Proc., § 437c, subd. (c).)
The new rule allows a party to move for summary judgment at any time, even as early as the commencement of the action. If the motion seems premature both subdivision (c)(1) and Rule 6(b) allow the court to extend the time to respond. The rule does set a presumptive deadline at 30 days after the close of all discovery.
A summary dissolution is a simpler way to end a marriage or domestic partnership for couples who qualify and are able to work together. A summary dissolution becomes final 6 months after you file with the court.
