Narrative:
Aircraft X departing santa monica; (smo) airport on departure climbing to 3;000 feet expected to intercept an lax radial and turn westbound. Departure was not in communications with aircraft X and was unable to turn the pilot. Attempted to contact smo and request communications and a turn of the aircraft. Simultaneously aircraft Y was departing lax south complex runway 25 climbing to 5;000 feet. The two targets were converging so I turned aircraft Y southwest bound into manhattan radar (6S) sky and completed a point out and stopped aircraft Y beneath traffic being worked by manhattan. Once I gained communications with aircraft X I turned him immediately to a heading of 265; [and] then followed up shortly with the brasher statement advising the pilot of a possible pilot deviation.lax south complex departures should remain stopped until smo traffic has turned westbound then lax tower should be able to resume departures.

Title: SCT Departure Controller and SMO departing pilot describe situation where the departure didn't turn when expected and became a conflict for a departure off of LAX.
Narrative: Aircraft X departing Santa Monica; (SMO) airport on departure climbing to 3;000 feet expected to intercept an LAX radial and turn westbound. Departure was not in communications with Aircraft X and was unable to turn the pilot. Attempted to contact SMO and request communications and a turn of the aircraft. Simultaneously Aircraft Y was departing LAX south complex RWY 25 climbing to 5;000 feet. The two targets were converging so I turned Aircraft Y southwest bound into Manhattan Radar (6S) sky and completed a point out and stopped Aircraft Y beneath traffic being worked by Manhattan. Once I gained communications with Aircraft X I turned him IMMEDIATELY to a heading of 265; [and] then followed up shortly with the Brasher statement advising the pilot of a possible pilot deviation.LAX south complex departures should remain stopped until SMO traffic has turned westbound then LAX Tower should be able to resume departures.
