Okay....sorry for leaving ya hanging for so long on this. It was a bitter sweet day today in court. First the bitter....this judge doesn't have jurisdiction over the quitclaim deed as far as entering the motion of it being fraudulent....so, his hands were tied to accept it as valid.....however, he gave us direction as to where to take it to and also where to go to appeal his decision and ruling on the eviction notice. We were able to get until Aug 1st to leave the property....which beats the 45-60 days he was thinking about at first, because of her lack of notice. He gave us the extra time to be able to go thru the other courts to overrule his decision. So, as it sits we have until Aug 1st to pack up and go....but, will be pressing to find a lawyer starting tomorrow to handle this from this point on....I certainly am not cut out for this crap and wouldn't put up much of a fuss....but, I just can't sit and see this lying, deceitful witch getting everything.....:somad :somad
Now, for the sweet....she was attempting to get the judge to "clawback" items that had already been taken from the premises, but the judge told her that the quitclaim only covers the property....not possessions, that would be adressed in a will....she said....but I've got pictures of it...he said it didn't matter...it is not a part of her paperwork. So, that means I can empty the house and she can't do a blame thing about it. I still think we have a really good shot at getting this mess flushed, and the judge was really sorry that his hands were tied, but encouraged us to take it further....I think he saw thru her smoke screen and while our case was going on there were about 10-15 people standing in the hall by the bailiffs door listening.
So, we'll have to hurry to find a lwayer, cause we only have 30days to appeal this order given today and we have to prove the paper is fraudulent in order to win the appeal. We are moving forward with the packing and stacking so things will be ready to load and go when the time comes. We have about decided to go ahead and make plans to leave anyway....really no use in staying and living in limbo from one decision to another. If we do get this to probate, then we get our portion and be far away from here....I hate it, but it will never be the same ever again.....:)

It went about like I thought it would.
5 months have passed since your father passed...lots could have been done by an attorney in that time. Witnesses subpoenaed, affidavits taken and certified, cease and desist orders sought before a judge and issued...now, you have 3 months to get it done and 'maybe' get the land in probate, tho that (in my mind) is still very much in doubt, because it does appear the judge today did accept her claim, otherwise wouldn't have given you a time to vacate. 3 months may seem like a lot, but the wheels of justice move very slowly, but if there is enough time, grind exceedingly fine.

The aim of justice is to give each his due, and in order for each to be given what is his, it is necessary that it already belong to him.
/\ That, is one of the flies in the buttermilk. She has something saying it is her's..something the court today accepted (if not previously) and from all accounts, you don't have much of anything at all in hand.

In civil cases, justice is rarely found inside the courtroom. It's almost always hammered out in conference rooms before parties walk in front of a judge.

(yes, you "can' do all the above yourself, IF the county and clerk of court are willing to point you the way to getting the right forms, but is can be daunting, and you will have to do a LOT of homework. I've always followed the old adage of "a person who represents themselves in court has a fool as a client". I tried it once many decades ago..only once...failed...miserably.)

Yes I am ignorant to the justice system and I do consider and appreciate any and all advice.....I was prepared to present the evidence that the paper was and is fraudulent, but I also knew of the possibilties that a small claims court judge would not be able to hear that evidence. I have noticed for many yrs of my life that others will ad ise to get yohrself a "good" lawyer, but there are never any names to go with that advice. I keep cleaning and polishing on my crystal ball, but it is never as clear as another's....until after the fact...as theirs is, because "hind-sight" is always 20/20. Being on disability has its limitations and I do as best as I can, with what I have to work with....and since I will be moving anyway, it just doesn't make sense to give a whopping amount to a lawyer that can aid much better in getting into another place with the total cost of moving and renting. Ya know....there aren't very many people that have lawyers in small claims court either, so it is what it is and it will be, what it will be....the end result will be the same for me either way it goes....but, yes we are attempting to find a lawyer, but no luck so far finding one to take the case.....:)

Even if ya win ya lose....don't matter much, tho because there isn't a long stretch of road ahead anyway and I'm not spending what time I do have left, caught up in some BS....the stress level on my heart is causing more chest pains and discomfort, so just best for me to focus on leaving and shaking the dust off when I do....:)

Sad, just sad. She will have her reward here on earth.......and for eternity. In this exchange, I do believe that you are coming out on top and are the winner on a moral level, no matter what the earthly possessions settlement is.

Go where you will be happy. The Evil Witch may take the property, but she has lost her soul. She can't take your happiness or your redemption away from you. I like your shake the dust off, reference.

That post is about as appropriate as it gets and oh so true!
