If this is a personal injury claim for discrimination, you would use the PLD-001 form at: http://www.courts.ca.gov/formname.htm to file suit. If it is a breach of contract suit over your lease, then use the PLD-001 (1) form for breach of contract claims. You would also have to complete the summons form to serve the other party with a copy of the complaint and summons.

Once you file suit, you can serve a request for production of documents on the management company for the documents that you require that you have not been able to obtain from them.

I am well aware about the rest of the issues in CA, I was just referring to the amount of forms the CA courts make available as they are the most pro se friendly courts out of all of the states. As far as DMV, the CA DMV is the one all of the terrible stories and jokes are made about.
