Your question is not really a family law question, and therfore somewhat out of my area. You really should confer with counsel knowledgeable about both landlord/tenant issues, and general tort suits. You may want to start with calls to either criminal defense or personal injury firms, and see if one of those could refer you to someone who handles the kind of case(s) in which you are involved. if a judgmenet has been rendered against you -- no matter how wrongfully -- do not ignore it! Find an attorney who is qualified to file a motion do set it aside, and do so soon.
