Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Bank filing unlawful detainer
The property went to auction and was ''sold to the forclosing beneficiary'' in ''as is'' condition. The remaining tenants were given a 30 day notice to quit. A seperate notice was mailed either brfore or after Notice to Quit stating not to pay rent to the previous owner or anyone until further notice. Today one tenant found Notice of Unlawful Detainer (Eviction). It states that a complaint has been filed dated 7/28/08. The Notice was addressed to All Occupants but the named parties are the Bank vs the previous owner who no longer lives on the property. The bank is represented by a real estate company and the tenants have spoken to the real estate agent so they are aware of the tenants individual names. What do we, as actual tenants still residing on property, have to do since the named party is the previous owner? Should we expect to officially be served a summons? I have checked court calendar with case number but nothing is scheduled for or found for the case.

Pay the new owner, and move within 30 days.
