TENTATIVE RULINGS The Court may post tentative rulings the court day immediately prior to the hearing, or some time before the hearing. Counsel who intend to submit on this tentative must send an email to the court at sscdept27@lacourt.ca.gov. If counsel submits on the tentative, counsel’s email must include the case number and identify the party submitting on the tentative with a copy (cc) to opposing counsel. If all counsel to a motion submit, the Court will adopt the tentative as the final order. If the department does not receive an email indicating the parties are submitting on the tentative and there are no appearances at the hearing, the court will adopt the tentative as the final order of the court. The deadline to take any motions off calendar is two business days before the hearing. INTERPRETERS Court-certified language interpreters will be provided to limited English-speaking litigants free of charge. Please make the request at the court’s website at https://www.lacourt.ca.gov/irud/ui/index.aspx or call and inform the Judicial Assistants in Department 27 in advance of your hearing. If an interpreter was not requested prior to your hearing, please inform the Judicial Assistants in Department 27 that you need an interpreter. If no interpreter is available on the day of your hearing, your hearing may be rescheduled to a date when the court can provide an interpreter. When presenting your case in court, a court-certified language interpreter must be used. EX PARTE APPLICATIONS Until further notice, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure § 166(a)(l), the court will generally not entertain oral argument for an ex parte application for relief. If a party is a self-represented litigant or is exempt from electronic filing, the party must file their ex parte application or opposition in the Clerk’s Office of the Spring Street Courthouse on the date of the requested hearing. Counsel and self-represented litigants must comply with California Rules of Court, rule 3.1203.
