Irvine, CA asked in Criminal Law for California

Q: California Criminal Law: How do I give "Notice to the People" to inform them of a Hearing date assigned by the Court?

Los Angeles Superior Court - CLARA SHORTRIDGE FOLTZ CRIMINAL JUSTICE CENTER

After my filing (pro per) to have my plea withdrawn, the Judge set a Hearing date but stated "I must give Notice to the People" of the Hearing date.

Who are "the people" I send notice and is there a form for that?

Thank you.

A: The District Attorney's Office is the "People." The court website has a proof of service form that you can download and fill out.

Good Luck.

BTW Pro Per is a REALLY bad idea!

A: MORE INFO NEEDED.

SEND A COPY TO THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY AS THEY REPRESENT THE PEOPLE.

I WOULD THINK THEY WOULD ALREADY BE AWARE. NORMALLY YOU WOULD FILE A MOTION TO ADD TO CALENDAR WHICH WOULD HAVE ALERTED THE COURTROOM DEPUTY DA.
