Stevens v. Lennar Homes of Cal., Inc. CA4/2
Plaintiffs Jasper and Brenda Stevens are in pro. per. They assert claims — primarily for nondisclosure — arising out of their purchase of a house in 2006. Defendant Lennar Homes of California, Inc. (Lennar) built and sold the house. Defendant Harveston Homeowners Association (Harveston) is the homeowners’ association for the development that the house is in.
Lennar and Harveston demurred to the operative complaint. The Stevenses never filed oppositions. They were granted one continuance of the hearing, so they could obtain counsel. They then sought a second continuance, again so they could obtain counsel, and also so they could add a new party. The trial court denied a second continuance and sustained the demurrers.
The Stevenses appeal, contending that the trial court erred by denying them a second continuance. We will hold that the trial court could reasonably find that there was no good cause.
