Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

wrongfully evicted
my ex-husband co-signed for my apt then got me evicted on purpose. he got jealous and paid rent late. now i have an eviction on my credit but he doesnt..he wasnt even listed on any of the eviction notices..He is the cosigner so doesnt that make him just as liable? all parties in the lease should be listed on the notice to quit right? He wasnt. How can he cosign, pay the rent late, get me evicted, ruin my credit and walk away without a scratch? The landlord served the notice, I said Ill have rent friday, she said okay but she had to give notice its standard procedure, I assumed she meant it was okay to pay friday, I paid friday, got letter from lawyer saying eviction would proceed, I asked how to avoid eviction on my credit, was told by landlord and her atty if out before sheriff came theyd dismiss the charges i asked how long i had to get out they both said they didnt know. I was out before the sheriff came and then they say Oh you should have been out last week and they filed the judgement against me anyway. I was out on the 29th of June. What are my options? I need this off my record because I didnt do anything and did everything they told me and they still filed charges....can I bring my ex and landlord to court? Pls help
