The following excerpt is from International Ins. Co. v. Superior Court (Rhone- Poulenc Basic Chemicals Co.), 62 Cal.App.4th 784, 72 Cal.Rptr.2d 849 (Cal. App. 1998):
2 Although an order made by one judge ordinarily cannot be reconsidered by another judge of the same court, the unavailability of the first judge (such as by retirement) authorizes a new judge to entertain the reconsideration motion (Ziller Electronics Lab GmbH v. Superior Court (1988) 206 Cal.App.3d 1222, 1232, 254 Cal.Rptr. 410).
