A:
To change venue in California due to concerns about bias or corruption in the lower courts, you would typically file a motion for change of venue based on the grounds of prejudice under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 397. This motion must be supported by substantial evidence indicating that a fair and impartial trial cannot be had in the current court.
Begin by documenting any specific instances of bias or mishandling of your case by the current court. This should include details about your interactions with the clerks, the decisions of the pro tem judge, and any other relevant circumstances that demonstrate a lack of impartiality or fair process.
In your motion, clearly outline the reasons you believe the current venue is prejudiced against you. Include references to any relevant laws or legal precedents that support your argument for a venue change.
If your motion for a change of venue is denied, you can consider filing a writ of mandate in the California Court of Appeal. A writ of mandate is a request for a higher court to order the lower court to take specific action, in this case, to transfer your case to a different venue.
Remember, the process of filing a writ of mandate is procedurally complex and subject to strict timelines. It's crucial to familiarize yourself with these procedures and adhere to the deadlines.
Given the complexity of your case and your concerns about corruption and bias, it may also be beneficial to seek legal advice or assistance. While representing yourself 'in pro per' offers certain freedoms, the intricacies of legal procedures and the need for detailed legal arguments can make navigating the system challenging.
Lastly, keep in mind that changing venue or appealing to a higher court does not guarantee a favorable outcome, but it can provide an opportunity for your case to be heard in a potentially more impartial setting.
