LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 3196, as amended, Stephanie Nguyen.
Summary proceedings for obtaining possession of real property: demurrers.
Existing law requires a defendant who appears and demurs to the plaintiff’s complaint in a summary proceeding for obtaining possession of real property to serve and file all moving and supporting papers at least 16 court days before the hearing, except as specified.
This bill would provide that in a summary proceeding for obtaining possession of real property, if a tenant in a commercial real property, as defined, demurs to the complaint, the notice of hearing on the demurrer must designate a hearing date not more than 20 court days following the filing of the demurrer. The bill would also make a technical, nonsubstantive change.
