Q: appealing to the court in CA to remove my name on sued list that I reside in WA
someone sued me and 2 brothers (they reside same CA state) about the money matter in the family. I would request to remove my name since I live out of the state.
A: A Washington attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. You may want to consider discussing this with a Washington attorney. It isn't fully clear if this is an arbitration (which is your posted category) or a formal legal action, possibly based on a long-arm statute, federal diversity, or other jurisdictional basis. If it's an arbitration, there could be lines of communication that are less rigid than in state or federal civil practice. But if it's genuinely a lawsuit (since you mention being sued), an attorney could help you evaluate the matter and outline your best options in protecting your rights if you have valid grounds to challenge jurisdiction or other aspects of the lawsuit. Good luck
