    This is a doozy..

    changing doe defendants

    So if I understand you correctly...don't file for simply a change of ficticious name, actually change my complaint. The struggle with this one is naming defendants i knew the name for..but believing they are part of this. For example, i still can't find ways in which a "silent partner" or...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    Okay Seniorjudge...Just in case the form for Attachment of Defaulter is incorrect... Since I have never submitted a "letter" to the judge I just want to be sure I understand proper procedure. I write a regular (though well worded) letter addressing the judge and the fact I want a "body...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    I was just told I need a form called "Attachment for Defaulter" form number 76A740 (Rev. 6-83) B19. I can't find it anywhere. Anyone ever hear of this? When I google it, it seems it is for folks who owe you money but I was told it is the civil form for a body attachment.

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    Hemingway, Thanks for the info. Should I ever manage to secure a warrant, it will give me a good idea of what to provide the sheriff even though it is a different county.

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    Just spoke with another court clerk who says I have to submit an ex parte "application" for whatever I want. In this case, a body attachment. He says he has the form for a body attachment so I don't have to write the actual warrant. Then the court will send to sheriff. This is VERY different...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    update Okay, I called the DA. No help. Said to call the Public Defenders Office. No help. Talked to two criminal attorneys who said the judge issues the warrant from the bench if it is contempt of his/her own valition. Let's try the question a different way. Let's say you issued a deposition...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    I appreciate the reply. Certainly I am aware of this site, but alas it does not answer my inquiry. The ccp says after an order a "warrant of commitment" can issue. How can I get a warrant of commitment? Am I to believe no one but the court clerk has ever heard of a procedure to get a "body...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    Anybody know the procedure? I got a court order for contempt against defendants who are thumbing their noses at the court. But the court clerk has told me the court does not automatically issue a warrant. The order says the defendants are to be arrested and held until they abide by the...

    Need to get bench warrant issued

    Bless you. This for a different county as I am in Los Angeles county and cannot find any forms like this. Can I write it with pleading paper? Also, do I introduce it as a motion? Just submit it? Set a hearing, what?
