This exhibit is a scanned copy of the owner’s own court-submitted charge sheet in which
Phat Tran recorded the monthly rent as $5,000 per month.
The same form also includes alleged damage claims and attorney’s fees totaling $20,923.
Key Points
Rent amount shown in owner’s handwriting: $5,000/month.
Contradicts later claims of $5,350 or $5,500 rent in the fraudulent “renewal” lease.
Confirms tenant was charged and paid under the original $5,000 agreement through the final month.
Serves as an admission by a party opponent under California Evidence Code § 1220.
Legal Relevance
This document undermines the owner’s core claim of unpaid rent. By listing $5,000 as the official rent figure, Tran confirmed the validity of the tenant’s payment records and refuted the basis for the 3-day notice served in June 2024.
It also establishes that the so-called “new lease” was never effective and was used solely to inflate rent after the fact.
