Answer:
California statute Section 38-35-201(3) defines "spurious document" as "any document that is forged or groundless, contains a material misstatement or false claim, or is otherwise patently invalid" (emphasis added).
The California District court for Pueblo County found a deed of trust to be spurious when it tried to claim that the owners of the properties consented to a lender's transferring an interest in property that it did not own.
