Reader’s Guide
How this record is organized and how to move through it. The case is presented as a documentary file: instruments, bank records, postal records, and docket entries, each carrying a master-index designator (EX-###). Open questions carry a TBA designator. Every characterization is an allegation; no finding has been made by any court or regulatory body.

Reading rules · held throughout this record
- Allegation framing: every characterization in this file is an allegation. No determination of liability has been made by any court or regulatory body on the questions presented.
- Cal. Evid. Code §913: no adverse inference is drawn, asked for, or implied from any party’s silence or claim of privilege, here or in any proceeding.
- Documents over recollection: where a trial recollection awaits the verbatim transcript, it is presented as recollection, unquoted, transcript-pending. The instruments speak first.
- Copies, never originals: the portal publishes working copies. Originals rest with their custodians of record — Wells Fargo, USPS, DocuSign, Authentisign, the Orange County Superior Court Clerk, and the agencies named in Department C.

The Spine in Six Instruments
EX anchorsSix executed or negotiated instruments carry the documentary weight of this matter. A reviewing partner who reads only these six, in order, holds the case.
Instrument 1EX-001 · EX-002 · EX-012
The 2022 tenancy instruments
What they are
Operative 2022 lease, DocuSign envelope
E1408B26 (EX-001); pet addendum granting two dogs, DocuSign 5D80110C (EX-002); and a voided first envelope, DocuSign BF76EC2B (EX-012). Custodian: DocuSign Inc.Why they matter
They establish a three-year tenancy of record with rent paid throughout, the named senior LEP occupant at ¶1.B, and pets disclosed at inception — first-contact disclosure of two dogs appears in the 4/19/2022 correspondence (EX-091), three days before lease execution.
Instrument 2EX-013 · EX-089 · EX-014
The April 26, 2024 lease — Authentisign 46CC8725
What it is
Fully executed C.A.R. RLMM lease, Authentisign envelope
46CC8725 (EX-013; full executed instrument EX-089). The face of the instrument carries the owner-signed move-in table acknowledging $6,375 received, and a rent channel directing monthly rent by direct deposit to a broker associate’s personally named account (EX-014, broker text of 4/26/2024: payment “to me instead of to the owner”).Why it matters
The instrument was executed inside a documented April 25–28, 2024 window in which the sign-or-vacate condition was imposed upon the plaintiffs. The personal-account rent channel on the face of an operative lease crystallizes the Bus. & Prof. Code §10145(a) broker trust-fund question. Allegation framing; the question is presented, not decided.
Instrument 3EX-015 · EX-016 · EX-018
The cure tender — cashier’s check #0084411044
What it is
Cashier’s check
#0084411044 for $4,338.48 payable to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (EX-015), delivered by USPS Certified 9534914882764149935944 on 5/30/2024 at 3:43 PM, signed “H H” (EX-016). The owner’s contemporaneous text — “Hanson has the check” — is of record (cross-reference EX-018).Why it matters
A full cure tender inside the notice window, received and held: more than two months in custody, no endorsement, never deposited, never returned, never credited. The exact custody-interval endpoint is an open ruling (TBA T-B); pages recite the interval no more precisely than the documents allow.
Instrument 4EX-017
The Three-Day Notice of June 21, 2024
What it is
Three-Day Notice served 6/21/2024 (EX-017): unsigned on its face, directing payment to a personal Wells Fargo account, transmitted through a DocuSign envelope whose sender and originator fields name the 2022 listing broker. Custodian: DocuSign Inc.
Why it matters
The notice is the predicate instrument for the unlawful-detainer filing of 7/3/2024. Its authorship, signature, and payment-direction fields are documentary questions a reviewing partner can evaluate from the instrument itself.
Instrument 5EX-021 · EX-022 · EX-023
The move-out instrument of August 5, 2024
What it is
Move-Out Clearance Report, DocuSign envelope
F5D247C2 (EX-021), carrying a pre-formatted attorney-fee deduction line of $2,005 and $14,548 in claims; the same envelope ID appears on a publicly distributed blank template (EX-022). The $7,835 carpet claim rests on contractor Invoice #2412 (EX-023). A City of Huntington Beach inspector report of 7/27/2024 records no pet damage (EX-020).Why it matters
The instrument’s deduction architecture is testable against Civ. Code §1950.5(b)’s closed list, and the invoice is testable against the inspector report that precedes it by eighteen days. Both tests run on documents alone.
Instrument 6EX-034 · EX-033 · EX-032
The joint-payee check #0084412016
What it is
Cashier’s check
#0084412016 for $5,338.48, payable jointly to the owner and his counsel of record, face caption DUPLICATE JUL 24 RENT / PAID UNDER PROTEST, transmitted UPS 1Z6017R6803685099A1 (EX-034). The check was negotiated with both endorsements. The depositing account’s identity is not established and is a subpoena target (TBA T-A): the Wells Fargo deposit-item record would return the endorsement sequence, the depositing account number, and the account’s ownership. This file does not assert whose account received the funds.Why it matters
Read beside the minute order of 3/27/2025 (EX-032) and the earlier voided clerk’s check (EX-033), the instrument frames the central accounting question of the post-judgment record: a payment made under written protest, negotiated by two payees, against a judgment that ran to the client.

The Reading Path
Order of reviewFirst, this page — the spine. Second, Department B (crosswalk.html) — each question presented mapped to its document. Third, Department C (documents.html) — the evidence home page: every exhibit by cluster, the two held instruments in full custody detail, and the register of items still to be acquired. Fourth, the counsel folder (for-counsel/) — twelve pages in intake format: counts catalogued with statute, elements, documentary anchor, controlling authority, exposure, and actors of record. Last, Department D (contact.html) — how to make contact.
For narrative orientation rather than documentary review, the public case file carries a short read (quick-read.html) and the full complainant statement (complainant-statement.html). Counsel review does not require either; the instruments are sufficient.
IV
Open Items at a Glance
TBA register · summaryDepartment C carries the full register. The headline items: T-A — Wells Fargo deposit-item record for check #0084412016 (subpoena target; account identity unverified). T-B — cure-check custody-interval endpoint (until ruled, this file says “more than two months, no endorsement”). T-C — substance extraction from the certified prior-tenant docket records in custody (EX-036); until extracted, the prior matter is cited as a docket fact only. T-D — certified-mail transmission record for the proposed amended judgment (EX-093). T-E — optical read of a reserved SMS exhibit (EX-094). Trial-audio requests for all three hearing dates are pending with the court’s electronic-records unit.
