Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

I filed a demurrer against a UD, the judge sustained the demurrer. I was then served with an amended demurrer. What is that and what does it mean. I filed the demurrer cause I was only given 30 days when I'm entitled to 60. The amended demurrer says the plaintiff prays the defendants leave the premises immediately.

The landlord cannot file a demurrer in a UD case unless the tenant files a cross-complaint of some kind. With rare exceptions that pretty much would never come up in a UD case, only a defendant can file a demurrer. So either your landlord has messed up and served you with something meaningless, or you are mis-describing what you were served with.
