I think I’m being scammed through a blackmail attempt where they are using the law as a cover to make me pay, even though I didn’t actually do anything wrong. I was on an online dating website and matched with a female who initially claimed to be 18 but later said she was 15. After a nude picture was sent, I asked her to stop, and the next morning, her 'father' contacted me demanding payment to avoid prosecution. They even had a 'lawyer' claiming I had to pay taxes to ICE to prevent legal action. Is this a scam, and if I stop paying, can I actually fall under any legal obligation?

I am a tenant in California who signed a stipulation for eviction, agreeing to vacate by April 1. I am still in the unit, and the landlord is threatening a lockout. After the plaintiff obtains the writ of possession and sends the sheriff, do I have 5 days before they can remove me, or can they remove me immediately?

I am the trustee and executor for my in-laws. They had two trusts: the first one left the property they owned to their daughters, and the second left the trust to their great-great-grandson. The property was not moved to the new trust. Which trust should be followed?
