Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Appeal Case

Hi,

I have leased property with option to buy and when seller refused we took him court,seller said you will never win in court as i am immigrant. Jurors awarded my right to buy at agreed price but seller gone appeal and he wins y saying i was not sure to sell and it was investment property etc.

Now he is asking me 50,000 for Legal Expenses. Is there any way i can protect myself and not to pay this money.

When i seen his Ad for rentals, i asked hm if he want to rent with option to sell. so he prepared all papers. and agreed price, deposits in two diffrent documents.I won't rent it if i don't had any option.

Can i write down letter to Court about affecting my life and putting me in Debt? and awarding cheater who made money in rent and when price gone up he changed mind and Court awards him.What a great Country...

Can you focus any thing plese...

Thanks

Sam

Re: Appeal Case

I am not sure the basis for the attorney fees. Did you respond to the appeal. Do you have an attorney? Letters to the court are not acceptable.

Re: Appeal Case

Sam, I really can't help you without more facts about the appeal. However, I can tell you that your version is missing something drastic, or you wouldn't have lost.

Other than that, I cannot help you without more information, including the other side's version of the facts.

Also, did you have an attorney at the appeal?
