Hedwall

*568 In the underlying action, appellant Laine Hedwall filed a cross-complaint against respondent CLP Valencia Golf, LLC, formerly known as CNL Income Valencia LLC (CLP), respondent CF Valencia Arcis, LLC (Arcis), and PCMV, LLC, doing business as Valencia Country Club (PCMV), asserting claims for breach of contract, fraud, declaratory relief, and related causes of action. When the trial court sustained CLP's demurrer to the cross-complaint with leave to amend, Hedwall filed a first amended cross-complaint (FACC). CLP then demurred to all but one of the claims against it *569 in the FACC. While CLP's demurrer to the FACC was pending, and without seeking leave of the trial court, Hedwall filed a second amended cross-complaint (SACC). The trial court "canceled" the filing of the SACC on its own motion, sustained CLP's demurrer to the FACC without leave to amend, and later granted judgment on the pleadings in CLP's favor on Hedwall's sole remaining claim against CLP. After Hedwall noticed this appeal, the trial court denied his request for an order staying the proceedings relating to Arcis and PCMV.
