Legal definition of Demurrer

[@napoleon9970]

currently writing a statement of demurrer against someone trying to file a claim for NIED for my law school paper as a 1L. This was very helpful for me to understand what exactly a statement of demurrer is. Thank you so much!

[@stephenyoo9617]

Thank you for this video. Just got served today and learned a lot about demurrer.

[@attorneysteve]

Johnny, its people like you that I do this channel for and that keep me going. I consider this part of my professional obligation - to make law more understandable and a chance at justice more accessible to everyone. All the best in 2020! Steve

[@attorneysteve]

Hi soundman, thanks for the question. I am only licensed to practice law in California and Arizona (where you have both the demurrer and the "motion to dismiss" in AZ). So I can only speak to those two states. Consult with your state bar or google a lawyer in Arkansas. Best of luck to you!!

[@WhispersRoCloset]

this guy is freaking AWESOME!!!! I love it...I'm binging on your youtube videos now

[@attorneysteve]

Enjoy, all you can eat!! Steve

[@neilgoodman2885]

Lawyer Steve, Thanks. You answered some of my questions about a concern I have and lighten my worries.

Hahahaha - love it!! SV

All Star Attorney Steve- voted for genuine intententions, Attorney Steve’s Professors must be proud.

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

Does there have to be a hearing before a demurrer is granted? And what's a tentative ruling?

[@attorneysteve]

It depends. Here is more information on tentative ruling from an older video I did. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4mqh2aPgMh1q5Y

[@filmaker256]

I know a lot about law but Im learning a ton more here

[@attorneysteve]

Knowledge is empowering!! Thanks for watching!

[@nicholastsai581]

thanks Steve. This is best explanation i have ever got regarding this subject matter.

[@attorneysteve]

Glad you liked Nicholas, thanks for the compliment!! Steve

[@chi11estpanda]

Thank you for this video, for it's so helpful when someone explains it to me, even if it's with the same vocabulary I've been reading on my own about in trying to understand it for myself, there was just something not clicking but now I have a better idea of deciding and quite frankly ,I think I need to speak to an attorney.... anyhow, thanks again, great video, and much appreciated. PS - Was that intentional at the end? When you said, "We look happy to talk to you" because it would be pretty humous if it subtly was or was maybe more of a fumbling of the two phrases, "We look forward to talking with you" and "We're happy to talk to you"?

[@Mustang-xl7gu]

The plaintiff filed a complaint, in pro per, for bread of fiduciary duty. He (the plaintiff), personally served the respondent. I know the service should not be done by a party to the lawsuit. How do I proceed? Motion to Quash? Does the respondent have to schedule a hearing when the service of process was improper?

[@Bangbang-gl4xo]

In California, if a plaintiff does not properly serve a 3 day notice (UD), and/or does not get a court order to "nail and mail", can you demurrer that, before an answer?

[@GreedyDuck1]

Attorney Steve!!! I just took the essay portion of the Virginia Bar today, and lo and behold there was a question about a demurrer. Your explanation was far superior to that of my Bar Prep's. Bless you! I could not have gotten the question correctly without you, thank you dearly!

[@attorneysteve]

AWESOME STORY!!! Thank you! Hope you knock out the bar ticket. Let us know when you do!! Steve

[@telugukings1227]

Hi Steve, is there any format for a mediation brief in California Law?

[@attorneysteve]

As a Plaintiff, you want to file a lawsuit that names all of your causes of action (ex. fraud, breach of contract, financial elder abuse, breach of fiduciary duty, etc.. Alll you have to do to plead a good case that SURVIVES DEMURRER is to make sure you are making plausible factual allegations as to each and every element of each and every cause of action. If you can do this, the Desperate defendant demurrer filing party will have a tough road to hoe to knock out your claim. Sometimes the Defendant files a demurrer to act tough, and somethings they think they will win. That being said, if a Plaintiff has their shit together, and can meet and prove all the elements of each cause of action, the Plaintiff will not need to amend the complaint and someone should basically kick the shit out of the demurring party. Use the time to emphasize what a bunch of scum-buckets they Defendant is for filing the demurrer and seek sanations gating them. If they are right, for whatever reason, fight like Muhammad ALi for a chance to amend the compo,aint.

Very intelligent attorney who kicks ass

Steve Vondran I received a Demurr from my tenants would I still get them out did 60 day notice but they not vacated premises and payed no Rent either did a lawsuit against them but know they answer with Demurr

[@KG-ew5nt]

Your awesome Steve 🤘🏽

[@tinamarkey265]

@@KG-ew5nt Ok so am I just being motioned in this direction because I have a fighting chance in court, due to the problems that have lead me to this point. And does the public defender able to support this type of case load? I am in a tornado of case dockets on different matters and the ladder just appears to be spiraling out of control with supportive public witnesses.

[@maximaleffort]

Well done. Thanks you. Many happy returns.

[@attorneysteve]

You too, thanks Jack!! SV

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

If the demurrer is granted does it kill your case?

[@kchambers777]

Any advice on someone who has been a defendant since 2001 who now is using the legal system to not serve proper notice while filing frivolous lawsuits : KZbin "People's Court Business Battle". She submitted a MSJ separate from the separate statement and never served any of the 5 defendants on the case. She has stalked all the members of the case and the judge keeps letting her push back the trial. I am an emergency responder this is only a defamation lawsuit because of a Yelp review I wrote that was removed but she is a vengeful litigant and has not provided discovery document still as she submits her MSJ.

[@attorneysteve]

Thanks Frederick, I really appreciate the nice comment!! Its for people like you I do these videos for!! Steve

[@gerardof71]

My tenant filed a demurrer against my unlawful detainer. Most of it is lies, that they weren't served a notice, that they offered rent and we declined it, etc. One thing is true: I entered the wrong expiration of the notice. This was a bonehead mistake. Is this a big deal?

[@terrycrawford6740]

I need to file a demurrer for being served for complaints about property I don't own. Sounds like my grounds are for Improper Joinder of Parties. Is this a simple task or do I need an attorney right off the bat? Thanks

[@vivolavida11]

Is a demurrer in California now worth the effort since we now have to confer before we demurrer?

[@attorneysteve]

I actually like the confer rule.....helps you better understand parts of your case. SV

[@attorneysteve]

HI Sorry, I cannot give specific legal advice over the internet per our rules. Check with a local attorney! Good luck!!

[@Kcarneirowashere]

Hey Steve what does, “Hearing on Demurrer - without Motion to Strike - Not Held - Continued - Court's Motion” means? Just trying to know the meaning of that. Not seeking legal advice 🙏

[@mellim9311]

The attorney for the defendant filed a demurrer and received a hearing date. I, the plaintiff, has not received a notice of hearing date. Am I required to be notified of the hearing and do I need to attend the hearing. This is a landlord/tenant dispute. Thanks

[@Ahollywoodjoevideodiaryseries]

Is small claims court different?

[@SF_Curious]

Where can we find samples of cause of actions per case?

[@attorneysteve]

What types of causes of action are you looking for? Maybe I should do a video on the top 10 causes of action? Steve

[@SF_Curious]

Steve Vondran I live in a small SRO residential hotel where I also work part-time, meaning, my landlord is also my employer! Because I have complained about several habitability problems on my building the landlord and it’s building manager have retaliated in several ways. The most recent way being they moved a meth addict next to my unit to use the fumes as a curtain to spray insecticide at night for me to smell! I consider this attempt to murder me! . I have run test for meth and my unit is now hazardous, the environmental gov office will do a test soon also. (I can’t prove insecticide or pesticides all I know for sure it is meth contamination) I want to file a complaint for attempt murder, the stress, the.Malicious Persecution and many other causes of actions as the landlord has been made aware of the situation living and working here and has done little to correct them and prefers retaliation what other causes of action should I use? Any sample complaint I can see online as reference? Thx

[@lynnbasson5360]

Very helpful Steve. I am applying for legal secy position and haven't worked in law for many years. Is there somewhere I can look up California timelines for litigation?

[@attorneysteve]

Not sure, I thought I did a video on this.

[@Habeas.Corpus.Freeyoself]

Demurred can also apply in criminal cases in some jurisdictions or is demurrer only civil?

[@attorneysteve]

Good question, I don't know the ins and outs of criminal law and this could vary by jurisdiction. SV

[@robertharrison5758]

Right down the lines

[@pennywagner8487]

New law by CA. Governor Jerry Brown, "You must confer , before you can Demurrer.".

[@attorneysteve]

Good call. Its a good law, I like it. Gives lawyers a chance to talk it over. SV

[@tinamarkey265]

Now you see that's where I have a problem. That makes the noel in void action to a chain of reckless behavior get thrown out of court. Because it makes it seem so petty that you both don't take life serious when sustaining life in realist matters with compassion to the court and of the people.

is it true that 95% of complaints go to settlement hearings prior to jury trial, due to complaint paperwork being sewed up air tight? do you have any examples of that? thanks Steve

Do demurrers require "service"?

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

Are demurrers often granted?

[@attorneysteve]

only the ones that have merit!! : )

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

@@attorneysteve naturally. Supposing you made an error in the pleading what can you do? Do you wait for the demurrer to correct it? Like, for example what if you used the word libel when you should have used slander or defamation? Do you correct it after the demurrer?

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

Using the wrong word/words can change the whole dynamic of the case. Just one erroneous word can change the entire meaning of the case. Like I used the word libel instead of defamation and now my case is not the same and my cause of action is invalid.

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]
