Hi,
I am a landlord trying to evict a tenant from a house in California (tenant at will, no lease, was an oral month to month agreement.) All my documents are in order at this point. We are at the Anwer stage. I overheard her talking with with her lawyer friend about using a 'Motion To Strike' before filing her answer. I know she is trying to delay the process. Any ideas what they may be plotting? What specifically could they possibly be alleging/wanting to strike? 2. Another landlord said I should be prepared for a 'Demurre,' but I don't even know specifically what to watch for. What specifically would they try to use to demurre me for? I am trying to avoid an attorney until the last minute due to budget. Thanks in advance.
