Re: prejudgement possesion
This is eminent domain, and a complex area. The Kinsey law firm of Seal Beach of Seal Beach has done a superb job on a number of complex issues, and I sm "borrowing" this from them.http://www.kinseylaw.com/clientserv2/civillitigationserv/enforcement/prejdgattachment.html
You need to retain an attorney ASAP.
As to how long, read the paper work you were served with.
The new owner has to refund your deposit, if the old owner does not.
