Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Calif.

no rent control I have rented 1 unit in a triplex for 3 years. 2 weeks

ago the existing property owner hands me a 30 day no fault eviction

notice. Then he tells me he has sold the triplex and its in escrow &

the new owner wants to move into my unit & that means that I only

get 30 days becouse of the owners moving in . Yesterday I was at a civic

outing & seen the new buyer there. So I walked over to him &

asked him when he was moving into my unit. He looked at me & said

WHAT! are you talking about I never said that. Are you crazy why in the

hell would I move into that little place when I have a beautiful two

story house out on the lake . Question can I bring charges against the

owner for making fraudulent claims in giving me a false notice so he

could close escrow 30 days faster.

Only the District Attorney can file charges. As I have repeatedly told you, it is a defective notice and you have to oppose the landlord's eviction based on the defective notice. You need to be focused on eviction defense and not on filing nonsense.
