Sample Demurrer to Unlawful Detainer (Eviction) Complaint for California.  Non-refundable.

Important Change to our 30-day Money Back Guarantee as of March 16, 2024

Due to the increasing allegations of fraudulent purchase transactions involving documents specifically designated for the purposes of litigation in eviction and/or unlawful detainer proceedings, we have been forced into choosing whether to continue offering such documents at all to ANYONE, or to declare that they are NON-REFUNDABLE, and are no longer covered by the 30-day money-back guarantee.

Consequently we have decided that as of March 16, 2024 at 1:00 am, PDT this specific document, and any other single document specifically listed in the Eviction Defense Collection is hereby NON-REFUNDABLE. To determine if your proposed other documents are NON-REFUNDABLE you will need to review the list of single documents found within the description for the Eviction Defense Collection.

YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED!

This sample demurrer to an unlawful detainer (eviction) complaint for California is made under Code of Civil Procedure section 1170 and is used to object to a defective three day notice on the grounds that the 3-day notice alleged in the complaint is defective because of,

• Missing information such as the adresss where rent is to be paid and the usual days and hours in which rent may be paid,
• The rent amount is overstated because the 3-day notice requests a late charge, and
• The three-day notice fails to specify the exact conditions and covenants of the lease or rental agreement that have been violated.

The sample demurrer has just been updated as of February 2019, contains an updated and revised memorandum of points and authorities, is 20 pages and includes

• Brief instructions, 
• Memorandum of points and authorities with citations to case law and statutory authority,
• Proof of service by mail.
