I filed a motion for disqualification against a federal judge in Houston, Texas. It's been more than a month and the judge has not responded. Will filing a mandamus or an appeal prevent the federal judge from ruling on the case until a decision from the court of appeal?

I renewed a Large Print subscription for Pam Brooks via my credit card, but received another renewal notice and sent a check. Now, I have verification that the credit card order went through in December. Can the check be canceled, and how should I handle the incorrect subscriber name 'Pah' instead of 'Pam'?

A tenant voluntarily moved out on December 10th and was allowed to store his tools and construction materials in a storage shed and carport on the property until January 31. I plan to warn him that after February 1st, I will sell his remaining items at a 'Public Sale' and/or take everything to the dump. I can't find a CA Civil Code section that describes such a Public Sale and how to advertise and conduct one, or even clarifies what '$300.00 in value' means (individually or cumulatively). What steps should I take to handle this situation legally?
