TOP-08 — Counterfeit / Unsigned 3-Day Notice
Executive Summary
The 3-day notice used to initiate the eviction was unsigned, unserved, and contained incorrect party information. This document appears inconsistent with standard BHHS, CAR, and CA eviction procedures. The owner submitted this defective notice into the Court record as if it were legitimate.
Legal Significance
- Penal Code §115 — Filing a False Document: Submitting counterfeit notices to a court is a felony.
- CCP §1161 — Requirements Not Met: The notice lacks required service and signature elements.
- Fraud on the Court: Notice used to trigger unlawful detainer lacked legal foundation.
Why This Matters at Trial
This exhibit demonstrates that the eviction was structurally invalid from the outset. Issuing and filing a defective notice indicates intent to mislead the Court, supporting claims of eviction fraud.
