Chairman Legal Procedures

During the summer my law firm tried to file a Unlawful Detainer Action in the Alameda Superior Court, at the Allen E. Broussard Justice Center. We were totally surprised by the closure of the Allen E. Broussard Justice Center. All of the documents sent to that courthouse to be filed, were forwarded to the Rene C. Davidson Courthouse. Tracking down our documents was a real pain.

July 19, 2007, Release from the Rene C. Davidson Courthouse website: Alameda.courts.ca.gov/courts/

The Allen E. Broussard Justice Center at 600 Washington Street, Oakland is closed to the public until further notice due to a severe water pipe leak as of Monday, July 16, 2007. For the time being, cases pending in the Allen E. Broussard Justice Center are being heard in other facilities throughout the city and county. A hotline has been established to respond to questions about the current location of affected cases and courtrooms. Attorneys’ and litigants may call the hotline at (510) 268-7606 for up-to-date information.

Court staff confirmed that all case files located at the Allen E. Broussard Justice Center are secure. The files are being relocated for safekeeping during the clean-up and repair process.

DOMAIN, the Court’s non-criminal case management system, contains scanned images of all documents filed in all cases. This allows judges and staff to continue conducting Court business without the physical case files located in the Allen E. Broussard Justice Center.

Changes at the

United States District Court Central District of California, Western Division

Effective November 1, 2007, the Court is expanding its mandatory electronic case filing (ECF) program to include all patent, trademark and copyright cases.

A key feature of the Case Management/Electronic Case Filing (CM/ECF) system is that it allows attorneys to file, view, and print documents over the Internet through the Court’s electronic filing website 24 hours a day. Attorneys receive one free copy of the documents filed electronically in their cases.

Training for electronic filing is mandatory. Training options include hands-on classroom training from the Clerk’s Office, classroom training sponsored by the Federal Bar Association, and online computer-based training.

Hands-on classroom training by the Clerk’s Office will be held every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday beginning September through December 2007. Registration is online and should be done as soon as possible to schedule your preferred training date and time, and the number of persons who will be attending the class.

Local training requirements may be waived by proof of a password and log-in from another federal district court. Please fax this information to Ms. Norys Mena at 213 894-1707.

Important information about electronic filing and training can accessed at the CM/ECF website through the Court’s homepage at www.cacd.uscourts.gov. Please refer to this website frequently so that you are current on all changes to rules and policies regarding electronic filing.

Advice For Notaries

Notary Bulletin – California

In the October 2007, Notary Bulletin from the National Notary Association, there is a article on page 2, "Lack of Thumbprint Leads to Arrest." This caught my eye especially due to the high rise of fraud with notaries and journals. If you are a notary and have seen the lawsuits against notaries for fraudulent notarial acts, this will be of interest to you.

"A Menifee Notary recently found out the hard way that failing to carry out all of her duties can have grave consequences.

Notary Brenda Cortez recently was charged with one count of willful failure to perform a notarial duty for neglecting to obtain a client’s thumbprint, according to a statement from San Bernadino County District Attorney’s Real Estate Fraud Unit.

The case stems from a May 2006 incident in which Cortez notarized a grant deed affecting real property and failed to record the signer’s thumbprint in her journal.

It turned out that the grant deed was forged and later recorded with the county recorder’s office in San Bernardino. Bail for Cortez was set at $15,000.

As deterrent to forgery, California requires signers of deeds, quitclaim deeds and deeds of trust affecting any real property to leave a right thumbprint in a Notary’s journal. If the signer’s right thumbprint is not available, the left thumbprint or a print of any available finger must be used in its place.

The NNA strongly recommends that Notaries request a thumbprint for each signer for the journal entry for every notarization, regardless of whether it is required by law.

Civil filings will no longer be accepted at the Historic Courthouse located at 101 Maple Avenue, Auburn as of August 3, 2007. Filings can be made at the Courts Dewitt location at 111546 "B" Avenue, Auburn, CA 95603.
