AMERICAN EXPRESS NATIONAL BANK VS MELTEM SARICICEK

Aug 15, 2024 |23STCV22563

Case Number: 23STCV22563 Hearing Date: August 15, 2024 Dept: 73 8/15/2024 Dept. 73 Hon. Rolf Treu, Judge presiding AMERICAN EXPRESS NATIONAL BANK v. SARICICEK (23STCV22563) Counsel for Plaintiff: Lourdes Slinsky, Kambrie Keith (Modlin Slinsky, PA) Counsel for Defendant: Meltem Saricicek (Pro Per) PLAINTIFFS MOTION TO VACATE DISMISSAL AND ENTER JUDGMENT (filed 6/6/2024) TENTATIVE RULING The Court GRANTS Plaintiffs Motion to Vacate Dismissal and Enter Judgment. I. BACKGROUND On September 19, 2023, Plaintiff American Express National Bank filed the instant action against Defendant Meltem Saricicek, aka Meltem M Saricicek, alleging causes of action for common counts. The Complaint alleges that Defendant is indebted to Plaintiff for money lent to Defendant at Defendants request. Plaintiff alleges damages in the amount of $70,444.66. On November 1, 2023, Plaintiff and Defendant entered into a Stipulation for Conditional Entry of Judgment (hereinafter Stipulation). Pursuant to the terms of the Stipulation, Defendant agreed to pay Plaintiff $53,520.00, inclusive of court costs, in monthly payments. On January 03, 2024, this Court dismissed this matter without prejudice pursuant to C.C.P. §664.6 as was agreed upon by the Parties in the Stipulation. The Court stated in its order that the Court retains jurisdiction to make orders to enforce any and all terms of settlement, including judgment, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 664.6. On June 6, 2024, Plaintiff filed the instant Motion to Vacate Dismissal and Enter Judgment. No opposition has been filed. II.ANALYSIS A. Legal Standard CCP section 664.6 provides that [i]f parties to pending litigation stipulate, in a writing signed by the parties outside the presence of the court or orally before the court, for settlement of the case, or part thereof, the court, upon motion, may enter judgment pursuant to the terms of the settlement. If requested by the parties, the court may retain jurisdiction over the parties to enforce the settlement until performance in full of the terms of the settlement. (Code Civ. Proc., § 664.6.) B. Discussion Plaintiff argues that Defendant failed to fulfill the obligations agreed to in the parties Stipulation. As a result, Plaintiff requests that the Court vacate the dismissal previously entered in this case pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure, section 664.6, and enter Judgment in the amount of $64,903.29 pursuant to the terms of the written Stipulation. In support of its motion, Plaintiff filed the Stipulation showing the agreed upon terms. The Stipulation provides for the Court to retain jurisdiction pursuant to CCP section 664.6 to enforce the agreement. (Keith Decl., Ex. A, ¶ 6.) Pursuant to the Stipulation, Plaintiff was to recover from Defendant the sum of $53,520. (Keith Decl., Ex. A, ¶ 1.) Defendant was to pay Plaintiff $2,230 on or before November 10, 2023 and $2,230 on or before the 10th day of each month until the sum of $53,520 is paid in full. (Ibid.) Further, pursuant to the Stipulation, in the event of default by the Defendant, Plaintiff is entitled to request entry of judgment against Defendant for the amount of principal plus court costs, less a credit for all payments received under the terms of the Stipulation. (Keith Decl., Ex. A, ¶ 6.) Plaintiff asserts that Defendant made payments totaling $6,690 and then stopped making payments required by the Stipulation. (Keith Decl. ¶ 3.) Notably, Defendant failed to file an opposition. As Defendant has defaulted, the Court finds Plaintiff is entitled to entry of judgment under the Stipulation. Based on the foregoing, the Court grants the Motion to vacate dismissal and enters judgment in the principal sum of $70,444.66 and costs of $1,148.63.00, less credits of $6,690.00, for a total of $64,903.29. III. CONCLUSION The Court GRANTS Plaintiffs Motion to Vacate Dismissal and Enter Judgment. Moving party to give notice.

On the same date, she filed a motion to quash service of the Association’s motion toamend the Judgment on Levan, on the ground that the Court lacks personal jurisdiction overLevan because the service of the Association’s motion on her was deficient. Levan’s motion toquash service is presently set for hearing on July 9, 2024. 201700491367CUOR: Sherwood Valley HOA vs New MissionBecause Levan’s motion to quash raises a fundamental question as to whether the Court haspersonal jurisdiction over Levan for the purposes of ruling on the Association’s motion to addher as an additional judgment debtor, the Court will rule on the motion to quash prior to rulingon the Association’s motion. (See, e.g., In re Marriage of Obrecht (2016) 245 Cal.App.4th 1,17 [noting “the California rule…that an objection to personal jurisdiction must be finallydetermined…before the defendant can litigate any defense on the merits.”].) Accordingly, theCourt cannot and should not hear the Association’s motion to add additional judgment debtorsprior to hearing Levan’s motion to quash.
