Legal Question in Family Law in California

My father owns a corporation which owns buildings. I live in one of those buildings but i am not part of his corporation. I am a manager of the building where i live but i recieve no compensation for my work. The job is more like a family chore. One of the tenants is sueing my father through the corporation. She could not locate him so she sued me instead. The person at the door said i was under obligation to give my father the court papers as both our names were on the summons. Is this true? Do i need to give my father the papers? Can i be held liable as a family member even if i am not part of his corporation. Basically is it legal to sue me and can i counter sue for anything?

I don't know why you posted this under the category for family law and divorce. This is not a family law question.

You mention you are a manager. Depending on the allegations of the lawsuit, you may be sued as the manager of the building you work on. You don't provide any facts as to the nature of the lawsuit or its allegations. You also don't provide any information to tell you why you could countersue.
