Civil & Probate Tentative Rulings
Tentative Rulings
Prior to the scheduled hearing of a Law and Motion, Complex Civil Litigation, or a Discovery matter, the Court may issue a tentative ruling.
The tentative ruling becomes the order of the court and no hearing is held unless one of the parties contests the tentative by complying with the California Rules of Court and Civil Local Rule 8D or Probate Local Rule 2A.
Tentative rulings for certain departments are available on this website. To access the tentative rulings, click the department number or the judge's name below for more details. Please note: Only the departments listed below are currently posting tentative rulings.
