Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Self-Storage refuses access to spouse...could auction storage property off.
My husband and I have many valuable things in our storage unit. I have used my credit card to pay for several months of storage fees as well as for many of the items stored. Now that the court gave my husband a 3-year restraining order against me, we do not communicate.
He has no money to pay for the storage unit. The storage manager adamantly refuses to give me access because me ''name isn't on the contract''. Isn't there a law that says that I have a right to access that unit? When I spoke with the storage manager, she seemed eager to see my property auctioned off. She said that she ''didn't care who paid for the fees'' but she won't let me have access.
Is there anything I can do?

You need to get to the court and ask for an order to allow your access. If questions, please call. 800-685-6950

I doubt that the lady at the storage is out to get you. More likely you are feeling powerless and scared. You need to go to court to get an order that lets you get into the storage unit. In the meantime, pay the fee.

Pay the fees to protect your interests in the property, and also get your attorney to go back to court for an order allowing you access. They will have a hard time refusing a court order. Contact me if you need to hire counsel.

You have to go back to court and have the restraing order modified so that you can go in.
