The following excerpt is from Glaser, Weil, Fink, Howard, Avchen & Shapiro, LLP v. Goldstein, B285198 (Cal. App. 2018):
9. The premise of Goldstein's argument appears to be that issuing both orders at one time constitutes different relief from the alternative orders requested in the notice of motion. (See., e.g., People v. American Surety Ins. Co. (1999) 75 Cal.App.4th 719, 726 [where party requests specific type of relief, court cannot grant different relief].) It is possible that two forms of relief could interact and result in a completely different and unforeseen outcome than would be expected from either form of relief alone. Goldstein, however, has not provided argument or authority showing that such is the case here.
