Can a judge issue a warrant for not coming to a civil "show cause hearing" ?

Question

The judge issued a warrant because i did not show up in court for a show cause hearing, I represented myself as the owner of my property in landlord tenant court. It escalated because I would not agree to let the tenants move out, they wanted to pay me what they owed me and breach the contract! In the middle of winter, they transfered over here from France thru a major corp. They misrepresented the entire contract, attempted to breach from the first month in the home, keep trying to get the rent reduced! It was blatant what they were attempting to do. They're attorney conspired to breach the contract, by telling them to breach the contract and change the locks, (I have an e-mail the attorney sent to me stating this). I sought a sanction against the attorney for his various misconduct he had committed in addition to the exhibit of the e-mail. The Judge denied my sanction. She turned around and sanctioned me from the bent, (practicing law from the bench?). I never paid the $500 sanction

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

People usually get into trouble when they are a penny wise and a dollar foolish. Look, there are reasons why we have mechanics, plumbers, electricians, doctors and attorneys... they KNOW the business and they KNOW what they're doing... you do NOT.

Instead of asking for advice in a public forum, you should be consulting an attorney, not a paraprofessional, not a secretary or a school teacher, but a bona fide attorney who can easily put this to rest. Right now, it's hit and miss for you.

Do you go see a plumber if you have intestinal problems?

Listen, don't ask for advice from non-professionals. The opposing side had an attorney and they outgunned you; didn't that teach you a lesson?

I've worked with attorneys so many years and I have seen those that represented themselves come to our office because they were now on the verge of losing their homes, their cars... whatever... because they thought they knew more and could represent themselves... yeah, like the guy trying to self-medicate tuberculosis or a bleeding ulcer!

Get professional help. Each State has its own laws, and what is legal in NYC may not be legal in Kansas, Toto. I've met people who've spent a couple of weeks in jail over stupid things, too, like being in contempt of the court (by opening their mouths at the wrong time).

Bite the bullet, pay an attorney and get it over with, who knows what paperwork is required and must be filed, etc. While you're going back and forth with this nonsense, you're losing income and giving yourself unnecessary grief, and you're wasting your own time that you can better invest in other matters. Get an attorney! WHY do you think attorneys hire other attorneys instead of saving money and representing themselves? Do you REALLY think they're stupid?

Go hire an attorney as quickly as you can... NOW!

Answer 3

You went to play out of the realm of just landlord/tenant court for the breach of lease agreement, easy court not many rules suite for non-lawyers to I sought a sanction against lawyer for misconduct, civil law real law not little landlord/tenant court now your playing in big boys area, that was your first mistake

Second you where then sanctioned from the civil bench, and refused to pay the fine, now from the bench the judge can issue a bench warrant for failure to pay fine, Judges in real court not play court do not enjoy being jerked around and it sounds like you tried

Answer 4

Yes.

First of all, breaching is contract is generally not illegal. It may be bad business, but that's a different issue. And the lawyer probably didn't actually tell the client to breach, they probably told the client what the consequences of the breach were. Significant legal difference, but either way it's not illegal.

What you did, from what you said above, is disobey a court order. The judge made a ruling, which is their job. You disobeyed that ruling. That entitles the judge to sanction you, cite your for civil contempt, and potentially charge you with criminal contempt.

There are ways to fight a court order. Ignoring it is not one of them.

Answer 5

A judge can issue a warrant for almost anything he or she pleases. Judges have very loose limitations when it comes to calling you before the court and that calling can be in the form of a warrant if the judge feels it is necessary.

hi Lioness, i attempted to locate "objectified" and "objectification" interior the dictionary and no exhilaration. properly, i'm no longer precisely specific I understand your queston, yet think of i might have an concept. besides, have you ever heard of the "bell curve"? it truly is a curve it is formed like a bell and does a solid job of representing information. As for attractiveness, at one end of the curve we've the least eye-catching and on the different end the main. the comparable may well be genuine for earnings ... poorest on one part and richest on the different. interior the process the bell we've all of the easy persons. i think of what you're asserting is genuine, yet basically basically a actuality of existence. we've the finished spectrum for the two genders. As for why adult adult males do no longer protest ... i think they understand that it truly is basically the way issues are and protests at the instant are not likely to alter something. wish this helps!
