Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
The holder of the 2nd on my home foreclosed and property sold. Unlawful detainer served and I answered. Before court, attorney for plaintiff led me to believe I had no options but to vacate property on their timeline. I signed stipulation. Other issues have come to light since and I would like to return to court to have judge actually hear my case. Is there a form I can file with court to do so? I live in Fresno Ca and had alot at stake as it stands I will lose more than $100,000.00 in equity

I can't think of any "form" that could be filled out and filed in this situation........which is not to say that you don't have a case. A lot would depend upon the nature and substance of the "other issues" that have come to light and/or whether you have sufficient proof to establish fraud on the part of the foreclosing lender or its attorney. However, I think you're gonna have to sit down with a Fresno-area real-estate/foreclosure defense attorney and review all the facts in person, including the stipulation you signed.
