Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in California

Breach of Contract

I have a lawsuit against me for breach of contract. I dated a girl who got pregnant and had credit card debt. She agreed to have an abortion if I paid off her credit card debt. She claimed to have the abortion and provided paperwork from the clinic. I signed the promissory note. She had the child and now she is suing me for breach of contract. The promissory note does not mention the abortion. It was verbal. I did not respond to her lawyer's interrogation questions because my bankruptcy lawyer advice me not to and stated that the breach of contract will not go through because of the bankruptcy. However, the bankruptcy did not go through because I lost my job. Now her lawyer has filed a motion to deem admissions admitted court date. What exactly is a motion deem admission admitted? Does that mean the judge approved their filings against me. I am representing myself. Please advise.

Re: Breach of Contract

I'm not certain of the history of your case(s). A motion to deem admitted means that the, if the motion is granted, by law you admit every damaging piece of evidence.

Retain an attorney to help you respond immediately to the requests for admission and serve the responses on the plaintiff's attorney. Then your attorney should file a response to the motion as soon as possible, attaching the responses to the requests for admissions. The court probably would not deem them admitted in that case.
