1180 If quick trial-setting practices make it impossible for a plaintiff to reasonably comply with the narrow time limits of CCP 425.13, the court retains the inherent power to make an appropriate order to avoid injustice or unfairness, so long as plaintiff can show that s/he acted with reasonable dispatch and diligence and that the inability to comply was not his/her own fault.
