Kory v. Lynch CA2/7
Defendant Kelley A. Lynch appeals from an order denying her motion for terminating sanctions against plaintiff Leonard Norman Cohen and from a separate order granting Cohen’s motion to seal portions of the declaration that Lynch attached to her motion, as well as certain of the exhibits attached to the declaration.
Lynch filed her sanctions motion in 2015. Notwithstanding the word “sanctions” in the title, the primary relief Lynch sought in the motion was an order vacating a default judgment entered against her in 2006. Lynch argued that the judgment should be vacated because Cohen never served the summons and complaint on her. She claimed that Cohen’s statements to the trial court that she was served were false and that the default judgment was the product of extrinsic fraud perpetrated by Cohen.
