Legal Question in Business Law in California

You must file the opposition at least 9 court days before the hearing. When counting, remember that the courts are closed the third Wednesday of each month because of the state's budget crisis.

I agree with Mr. Cohen. Additionally, the Defendant can file a reply to your opposition 5 court days before the hearing. At the hearing, there will likely be oral arguments. Make sure to read up on all the rules for oppositions to motions as there are a lot of things that a novice to the process can get confused on (and things that can be a detriment to your case). I would suggest hiring an attorney to represent you/the company.

Also, if this is for a business keep in mind that a formal business entity (corporation, LLC, etc.) must be represented by an attorney in court.
