What is the name of your state?CA

I filed bk7 pro se in Oct of 2005.

One judgment included in the bk has been twisted by the creditor into a criminal complaint in Nov of 2005, after he received the bk notice. He then went to court and filed a criminal complaint rather than challenge the bk.

The last letter I received from the creditor tells me that they have filed a criminal complaint against me, but if I pay the money, they will drop the complaint. Well, I did not pay, they did not drop.

In an earlier post, I was told the letter in which the creditor is asking for money is a violation of the automatic stay, and to file a motion of contempt.

Great, I'll do it, I have the letter; but both the criminal matter and the demand for money are in the same letter. I've read bigguns and other replies to violations of automatic stay, and how some creditors have twisted events to get around the automatic stay. I feel this creditor is seriously abusing this automatic stay, and using other methods of getting money from me which are not legal either. THis is just so twisted.....

I am in this kind of situation. Only, the other matter is taking place in Massachusetts, I live in CA, filed in CA. The stupid part is, the criminal matter is totally bogus, and that is the 'twisted' part of this story.

I want to file some motions of my own here in the state of CA. For one, the Motion of Contempt. How do I do this? Besides hiring an attorney, please, I'm broke as many of us are here on the forum. Is there a standard form, or legal resource, for this that I can refer to?

Thanks

First you need to draft the Motion for Contempt which can also include a request for sanctions. It has to be formatted properly. If you don't know how to do that or need a sample, PM me with your email addy and I can send you one.

For those of you that have read this far, there was a user who has now been removed, and all his posts, that was abusing the forum, so that is why my posts here look like I'm ranting at myself.

Beware of abuse in the forums. Report it to the 'contact' on the forum site.

**A: then simply delete those posts where it looks like you're crazy and talking to yourself.
