Section I · OC Superior Court Docket — Tran v. Bach (2018)

Tran v. Bach · Case No. 30-2018-00982394-CL-UD-CJC

The Orange County Superior Court online docket reflects a 2018 unlawful-detainer matter captioned Tran v. Bach, Case No. 30-2018-00982394-CL-UD-CJC, filed in the Orange County Superior Court, Limited Civil Division. The docket identifies the named plaintiff as Thao Thu Tran and lists the plaintiff’s counsel of record as Steven D. Silverstein, Esq., California State Bar No. 86466.

The 2024 unlawful-detainer matter at the center of the present documentary record is Tran v. Gasio et al., Case No. 30-2024-01410991-CL-UD-CJC, in which the same plaintiff’s counsel of record (Steven D. Silverstein, Esq., California State Bar No. 86466) appears for the named plaintiff Phat L.K. Tran, DDS.

The two cases are identified together for one limited purpose: both are public dockets in the Orange County Superior Court, both bear the same case-type designation (CL-UD-CJC, limited civil unlawful detainer), and both list the same plaintiff’s counsel of record. The documentary observation is the docket overlap. No assertion of coordinated conduct between the two matters is made on this page; that determination is reserved to any reviewing court or agency on a properly noticed proceeding.
