Noonan Law — Firm Brief

2026-05-28

Executive summary

The firm has a same-day cover gap at the top of Thursday: Jason Gibson, felony arraignment at 8:30 AM PT, with Ian Martin (Stockton) declining "out sick" yesterday afternoon and no backup identified. "FA" and Martin's San Joaquin office point to a San Joaquin County FA, but department and case number are not yet on the firm side; no Jason Gibson matter folder exists on disk. Beyond that, two large wins shipped Wednesday evening — the Blackwell Hobbs draft was sent to Reginal Black, and the Mitchell discovery/video package was handed off to Chuck Pacheco — both resolving Christine's two urgent asks on the texting thread. Two open hearing-coverage failures from earlier this week remain unaddressed (Madrigalreyes 25-CR-017481 PTH 5/26 no-show; Mejia-Mejia 22-CR-003198 reply to Sheila McMullen still owed). The Hunter pickup window is now confirmed for Sacramento. The Thu 5/28 and Fri 5/29 admin@ calendar is still empty despite at least three known commitments (Gibson FA, Larry Whitworth callback request for his 5/28 court date, Stan Dept 20 5/29 trial — covered by outside counsel).

The biggest single risk on the page is the Gibson cover gap — ~5 hours from Jeremy's typical Madrid wake to court call.

Hearings this week

Filings / Motions in flight

Case updates (by case)

Blackwell, Reginal — 25-CR-007675. Two major movements in 24 hrs. Christine texted Wed 11:16 AM PT that Reginal was calling her about the Hobbs motion and asked Jeremy to send the draft; admin@ shipped the draft to regblack59@gmail.com Wed 23:31 PT, closing Reginal's 5/21 URGENT STATUS ask. Separately, two Sjoberg discovery threads from 5/21–5/22 (additional Blackwell discovery + a "Wendt or Foley?" follow-up) are still unread on admin@ in the Yahoo-mirror label — they need acknowledgment. JWN's 5/20 direction to PIVOT from M2T&Q to "continuance + motion to compel" remains the active strategy; existing § 1054.1 deficiency paper trail (4/26 letter) backs it. Open: confirm hearing is 5/18 (now past) or 6/9 PTH WMC-Oakland; if 6/9, the continuance+compel filing window is here.

Mitchell, DeAndre — CR-22-002886. Pacheco handoff inventory delivered Wed 23:42 PT; trial confirmed 10/5/2026 9:00 AM Dept 9 (Vehicular Manslaughter). Christine's Wed afternoon text flagged the DA "is being very cooperative" and is producing the missing body-cam materials. The 4/30 Stanislaus DA FTP production from Monica Pimentel (link valid through 7/29/26) is the only outstanding ingest item from this matter; Pacheco-Handoff-Inventory-20260509.md captures the status. Bar complaint vs. Billups (was due 4/15/26) status still unconfirmed at ~43 days overdue.

Madrigalreyes — 25-CR-017481 (Dept 712, Alameda ECHOJ). Confirmed no-show 5/26 2 PM PTH per Jessica Flores's two emails Tuesday afternoon. Backstory: 5/22 firm tried to push 5/26 → 7/6/26 but never e-filed Jessica's instructed continuance. All three Dept 712 emails remain unread on admin@. Likely outcomes for the firm to confirm Thursday morning: (a) court continued sua sponte and noticed JWN's Yahoo, or (b) court is flagging a no-show issue. Second Noonan no-show in seven days (Kramer 5/19 being the first) — this is now a pattern, not a one-off.

Mejia-Mejia, Yurandi — 22-CR-003198. Tue 5/26 9 AM PT deadline passed with no firm reply to Sheila McMullen (Dept 11 Alameda) on her 5/22 question — keep on calendar for Tue with DA only, or pick another date? DDA Thomas Walsh agreed to continuance 5/22. Court most likely continued sua sponte to a court-picked date. JWN's Yahoo activity Tue PM PT (four sign-in codes) suggests he may have replied via Yahoo invisibly. Action: confirm with JWN whether he responded; if not, admin@ reply-all today with a proposed date.

Hunter, Artis — 25FE014307 (Sac). DDA Danny Lee responded Wed 06:21 PT confirming pickup window: 901 G Street, Sacramento, M–F 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM. This resolves the 5/19 routing question on the supplemental discovery from Cristal Moreno. Underlying 4/9 prelim outcome still unknown at ~50 days.

Kramer, Tyler — 25-CR-016971. Outcome of 5/19 9 AM Dept 11 hearing still unknown at 9 days post-no-show. admin@ initiated a 4/22 transcript request 5/19 PT suggesting someone is gathering record. Octavio Belisle (cocounsel) emailed admin@ 9:17 AM PT the day of asking who was substituting in; no firm follow-up captured.

LaRosa, Donald — N26-0729 (Contra Costa). 10 days of silence from client since the Mon 5/18 1:30 PM PT Pittsburg CH-120 hearing. v7.1.3 binder + signed Trystan/Christina decls were on hand; orphaned admin@ draft 19e3b4d5d90a754d (Sunday-staged pre-hearing message) is still in Drafts. Either reach out proactively or accept silence as benign.

New Wed 5/27 PT inbound to triage (informational, admin@ unread):

Closed loops this week:

Red flags

Triage queue (Noonan-specific)

  1. Jason Gibson 5/28 FA cover gap — JWN to identify court/dept + cover path immediately.
  2. Madrigalreyes 25-CR-017481 no-show — call Dept 712 (Jessica Flores) + e-file 7/6/26 continuance; apology email.
  3. Mejia-Mejia 22-CR-003198 — confirm whether JWN replied via Yahoo Tue PM; if not, admin@ reply-all proposing date.
  4. Wed 5/27 admin@ calendar gap — at least 5 matters likely had 5/27 hearings; portal pull recommended to confirm dispositions before client follow-up.
  5. Ruiz Salas Tyler resubmit (Marie Mui 5/15 request) — recreate envelope with corrected docket.
  6. Kramer 25-CR-016971 — Alameda Dept 11 minute-order pull + apologies to DDA Clark + Octavio.

Team

Team notes

John. Single biggest morning ask: identify the Jason Gibson FA court/department and decide whether to personally cover, route to a Bay-Area covering attorney on short notice, or have someone call the dept clerk before 8:30 to flag a brief continuance. Second: weigh in on the Madrigalreyes 25-CR-017481 and Mejia-Mejia 22-CR-003198 postures — both are now hearing-coverage failures that warrant a process check. Yahoo-mirror traffic shows John was active there yesterday afternoon (one sign-in code 18:12Z); if he replied to Mejia-Mejia or Madrigalreyes from Yahoo, the firm-side admin@ doesn't know.

Christine. Wednesday evening texting batch was productive — Blackwell Hobbs draft to client and Mitchell-to-Pacheco handoff both shipped on her ask. Reconciliation items pending: GReminders $47 card decline (5/25) and LawPay $300 Benita Villegas failure (5/19). Several new intakes from Wed PT (Larry Whitworth, Peter Webber, Marisella LegalEASE, Naji Amro, Raul Ruiz "missed court", Quinesones, Albert Wright) are routed to admin@ unread — triage path TBD.

Nicole + Kellie. Sac DA discovery pickup for Hunter is now feasible (901 G Street, M–F 8–4:30, DDA Danny Lee). No other assignments captured this cycle.
