Wrongful Eviction Legal Guidance

Summary

In California, wrongful eviction issues can be complex, especially when involving significant financial claims or harassment. Settlements in small claims court typically dont affect larger cases, but its crucial to consult a legal expert for cases like a TAHO case. If you paid what you owed without a settlement, it may not impact your larger case. For protection against further retaliation or harassment, consider filing a request for a restraining order or injunction, and gather evidence to support your case. This may require a separate hearing from your compliance hearing. Consulting with a local attorney can provide tailored advice and assistance.

Jane. California. I was trying to pull up our history from earlier today. Regarding my wrongful eviction drama, but the page refreshed and our chat is gone. I had one more question.... I was railroaded into signing a stipulated agreement. I asked their lawyer and the judge that if the way this is finalized, will effect my harassment case and was told no. Apparently that is not true. but why both the lawyer and judge lie to me or not know. So my question is...
Hey Jane! Sorry to hear about the confusion. It's unlikely that both the lawyer and the judge intentionally misled you. It's possible they interpreted the law differently or there was a misunderstanding. Do you want to explore options on challenging the agreement or seeking further legal advice?
What I wanted to know is if I was going to sue them in small claims court, is it true that settling wouldn't affect my case. So as far as that, they were telling the truth. But they just didn't know I have close to a million dollar TAHO case. And is in higher courts that settling affects it? And they just didn't know that's the court I meant?
In small claims court, settling usually doesn't impact other unrelated cases. However, if your case involves a significant amount like the TAHO case in higher courts, settlements can affect it due to potential admissions or agreements made. Consulting with a legal expert on this would be beneficial. Do you want to be connected with local lawyers for further assistance?
Ok so to confirm, they most likely told me it wouldn't affect it because they assumed I just meant small claims. They didn't lie, they just didn't know I was referring to a bigger case?
Yes, it's likely they assumed you were referring to a small claims case, where settlements typically don't affect other cases. For your larger TAHO case, settlements can have an impact. It's important to consult with a legal expert for tailored advice. Would you like help connecting with local lawyers?
Also, does it make a difference that I didn't settle, like get a deal. I just paid what I owed. not a penny less. So it wasn't really a settlement. More like a payment plan
Case Rating: *
In your situation, since you didn't settle for less but instead paid what you owed, it's more akin to fulfilling an obligation rather than a settlement. This distinction might help in maintaining the integrity of your larger TAHO case. Would you like to be connected to local lawyers who can better assist you with your case?
Ok thats good to know. And I only signed it because the judge denied my continuance and forced me to settle. I wanted my trial. I've lived here 25 years and they refused my money for 9 months, then agreed to let me pay at court, so of course I was happy to be able to pay my rent and stay. I shouldn't be judged negatively for paying my rent. I never stopped paying, they served me a 3day notice and waited 5 months for the UD to be filed. They removed the amount from the original 3day and filed the UD with a new notice. Because the first one was invalid

They couldn't evict me over the covid debt on the 1st *-day notice. So they used the 5 months I was held hostage under the invalid notice, waiting for the UD papers, as grounds for eviction. unable to pay my monthly rent unless I had the $30k on the invalid notice. And they took 5 months to remove the debt and evicting me for the 5 months I couldn't pay due to their intentional stall

Yes, it's been 277 days from the initial illegal eviction attempt, to my court date. That's how long they let the illegal eviction attempt to continue. At $2k per violation and let it continue, that's already $554k before trebling etc.

Do you think a court would really count each day like they say. they lied to me and ignored me for 9 months. Said I could turn in my keys and I could leave debt free. But they couldn't evict me over the debt they offered the key surrender. So that makes it illegal or wrongful right? They threatened eviction over $30k, when I owed $3k.

How can I ask the judge for protection to like barr them from Further retaliation & harassment & so they don't just serve me a 60 day to quit now that I paid my debt. And if they still want me gone

- File a request for a restraining order or injunction in court.
- Gather evidence of harassment or retaliation, such as communications or witnesses.
- Clearly state your reasons for seeking protection in your request.
- Attend the court hearing to present your case.

Would I do that at the compliance hearing tomorrow or do I need to schedule a separate hearing?

For protection against further retaliation, you might need to schedule a separate hearing specifically for a restraining order or injunction. The compliance hearing may not address this issue.
