VL-120: Application for Order to Vacate Prefiling Order and Remove Plaintiff/Petitioner From Judicial Council Vexatious Litigant List

Fillable PDFJudicial Council of California

This form asks a court to remove someone from California's official list of vexatious litigants and cancel the standing order that requires them to get court permission before filing new lawsuits. Someone on the vexatious litigant list uses this form to ask the court to expunge their status after they believe they've stopped the problematic filing behavior that got them listed in the first place.
