Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
Demurr
My landlord served me a 30 day notice to quit in February, then they
served me with an unlawful detainer. I filed a demurr. The points I
noted in the demurr are based on the fact that my landlord refuses to
give me a reason, financial hardship, and that I paid rent. A real
estate friend of mine feels I would lose the demurr because my points
are not meant for a demurr. He suggests I not show up for the hearing
on the demurr and move on to the answer. Would you have any suggestions
for my situation? I am also concerned about what I should do to protect my record in the event that I do have to move?

Re: Demurr
It sounds like you will lose the demurrer but even if you lose the court must give you time to answer after the demurrer so you have nothing to lose by going to the hearing.
