I have gotten a court deposition that he admitted to not creating the right trust. The trust created was power of appointment and he asked for restricted A/B with my stepmom.

Hi, here recently a rather well known person (who is not a judge or in any way related to the legal sphere of work) publicly showed a person's sealed criminal record. How on earth is that possible, and is doing something like that illegal?

You have posted this question in the forum for California lawyers. You need to re-post this in the message board for lawyers in Washington state.
The DA of a certain California County may be guilty of vexatious litigation against me, as well as collusion with a judge. I’m aware these are serious accusations, However, if I can consult with a federal litigation attorney, he/she will understand why I’m concerned once I provide the details.
answered on Jan 3, 2023
I think you have a misunderstanding as to what a vexatious litigator is or can be. The DA cannot be a vexatious litigant. Pursuant to CCP 391, et seq., it can only be a pro per litigant who has maintained at least 5 litigations other than small claims to final determination adversely to the person... Read more »

You have not asked a question.
Your best move is to ask your attorney how he or she intends to proceed. One approach could be to challenge the order by way of writ. There is case law that suggests a court should give great deference to physical disability.
Good luck to you.

If a client files a bar complaint against his own lawyer may have created a conflict of interest that may require the attorney to withdraw.
Otherwise, a complaint is nothing but a complaint, and not a finding of anything done wrong.
Further, unless an attorney is suspended from... Read more »

answered on Dec 7, 2022
Yes, in general an attorney in a mold case will seek to recover for all losses and injuries you sustained. Also, a court would likely prohibit filing two separate lawsuits (one for personal injuries and a second for property damage) as that would be a waste of the court's resources. Hope... Read more »
