What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
Hello and thank you in advance for any advice you may offer.
My ex-fiance stayed in a co-signed rental right up until the day the landlord was going to evict us for non-payment. I had vacated the residence months before and attempted to help her leave the premises and settle with the landlord to no avail. She would not comply and we barely avoided an eviction judgement as I hired movers to get her things out the day before the court date. The landlord took us to small claims court and won a settlement. My ex had no financial stability as she lost her job so I was left to pay the judgement. It's almost fully paid off and I have heard that there was a way to have the record of the case removed from background checks or histories once I've paid up in full. Is this true and how would I go about filing for that with the courts? I am in North County San Diego so the Vista Court is where everything was filed.
Thank you again.
