State Bar of California reposted this
Starting in January, California tenants will have 10 days—instead of five—to respond to an eviction notice. The eviction process is still much quicker than other civil lawsuits. But with this extension, tenants who face barriers related to language, transportation, or finances will have more time to find help. Nationwide, landlords are far more likely than tenants to have legal representation, but increasing access for tenants can level the playing field. ❗Remember: If you receive a summons for an “Unlawful Detainer” from a court, act fast. Not responding on time means you could lose your case by default before you get the chance to defend yourself. Connect with Stay Housed L.A. at www.stayhousedla.org or (888) 694-0040 to learn your rights and explore your options. Read the full story from CalMatters: https://lnkd.in/e94Z-VjT

Today, the #StateBarCA honors Manuel Ruiz Jr., a trailblazer in the legal profession and Latino history. He was the first Latino graduate of USC’s Gould School of Law and was admitted to the CA State Bar in 1930, and later was the first Latino lawyer to argue before the U.S. Supreme Court.
