Doctor Phat Luu Ky Tran et al.

A retired school administrator, age seventy-two, paid the same month’s rent twice. The first payment was a cashier’s check (no. 0084411044) — bank-guaranteed funds requiring no further endorsement to be spent — for $4,338.48: the $5,350 contractual rent less a documented Civil Code §1942 repair deduction of $1,011.52. It was mailed by tracked U.S. mail on May 30, 2024, within the cure period, payable to the only entity named in the lease. USPS tracking #9534914882764149935944 records receipt and signature (“H H”) that afternoon. The court’s Under Submission Ruling of March 27, 2025 acknowledged the tender on the record. The funds were never credited. The check’s location during the cure window is reflected in a contemporaneous text message indicating that the agent Hanson — a licensed broker — held it. That message was not before the court when the matter proceeded.

This file follows three instruments — a Three-Day Notice, a Move-Out Clearance Report, and the bank instruments routed around them — and poses the question California Penal Code §134 asks of any document offered in a proceeding as genuine or true: whether it was what it purported to be. On June 21, 2024, counsel of record served a notice directing rent to a Wells Fargo account named in neither executed lease. On July 3, 2024, before the tendered check was resolved, an unlawful-detainer action was filed. On August 5, 2024 — the day the household, including two seniors and a limited-English-proficient named occupant, vacated voluntarily with rent documented as current and no sheriff lockout executed — a listing broker signed the Move-Out Clearance Report (DocuSign envelope F5D247C2). It carried the deductions in dispute: $2,005 in attorney fees charged against the $6,375 deposit, and Ly Construction Invoice No. 2412, dated August 14, 2024 — eighteen days after the City of Huntington Beach inspector cleared the unit.

For a prosecutor, those documents present a discrete question under Penal Code §§134, 115, and 132 — the preparation and presentation of a writing as true. For the defense, the same documents are reproduced here in full, and the question is left open: each is set out so it can be read against its original. The conduct reflected in the record passed through multiple credentialed hands, each holding a license and a defined duty. The owner is a practicing dentist. Two agents are licensed real-estate brokers, each bearing a personal trust-fund obligation under Business & Professions Code §10145; the deposit was wired to a personal account rather than a broker trust account. A general contractor issued the disputed invoice. Trial counsel is a thirty-year member of the California Bar; a second attorney withdrew three days before trial. A branch manager received direct written notice of the dispute on June 25, 2024 — eight days before the action was filed.

At each point of potential review, the record reflects the matter advancing without correction: a tender acknowledged yet uncredited, a redirected account uncorrected, a post-clearance invoice unexamined, a deposit deduction beyond the Civil Code §1950.5 ceiling. That sequence of unreviewed steps is, in substance, why the matter now sits with the regulatory agencies and the District Attorney rather than the civil court alone. The plaintiffs paid the disputed sum a second time under written protest — the check memo’d “Unknown Contract — July 27 of 37,” dated June 28, 2024 — then referred the matter under certified and registered mail to eleven agencies spanning real-estate, banking, postal, civil-rights, and law-enforcement authorities, each letter tied to a statute, a controlling case, and a primary document.

The questions concern facial conformity of the notice under Code of Civil Procedure §1161, the deposit deductions under Civil Code §1950.5, broker trust-fund handling under §10145, and the genuineness of the documents under Penal Code §134. They are presented as questions on a documentary record for regulatory and judicial review. No adverse inference is drawn from any party’s silence or invocation of rights. Allegation framing governs throughout. No finding has been made by any agency or court. The instruments follow; read them against the originals.

Disambiguation note. Two persons named “Anna” appear in the documentary record: Anna Ly (DRE #01894348, Sun Realty and Management, daughter of Phat L.K. Tran, 2022 listing agent and post-term move-out invoicing party) and Officer Anna (Huntington Beach Police Department, second-window interview, surname not on this record). The two are not the same person and are never to be conflated. “Silverstein” on this portal refers exclusively to Steven D. Silverstein, California State Bar #86466.

Six executed instruments and primary records form the foundation of the matters presented. Each is preserved in Section 10 (Documents) with full chain-of-custody metadata. The questions in Section IV below run from these six anchors.
