Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
demurr to U.D. with undated POS
Tenant filed demurrer w/in 5 days of service of complaint for U.D. Demurrer POS is undated but signed by server. Tenant is Plt in Pro Per, server is an employee of our county. Rent control laws in effect here (LA). Hearing date set 3 more weeks. What do I file to 1) moving hearing date sooner; 2) get a default against this tenant and prove his demurrer invalid? Thank you so much :o)

Unfortuntately, I suggest you hire an attorney to help you as unlawful detainer lawsuits can become difficult if the tenant responds. An Exparte application should be filed to shorten time for a hearing on the Demurrer. Please call me, Jeff, or Barry at my office at 714 363 0220, if you need any further assistence.

NOW, IN RESPONSE TO YOUR INQUIRY --
If the tenant knows enough about UD law to prepare, file, and serve a Demurrer, you probably need to hire an attorney to represent you. It will likely save you time, trouble, and money in the long run.
