I have a friend that used work with me at my current job that told me that he had two names one was for the job where he used work at which was where I still work is he in legal and can he get in trouble for this

Answer

It depends on what you're referring to. Is he here illegally & working without authorization, which is always against the law, or is he here legally & working with an alias, which has nothing to do with Immigration Law?

are u aloud to take ur own bag in to a store to use to shop instead of a cart

Question

are u aloud to take ur own bag in to a store to use to shop instead of a cart

Answer

It depends on the store's policy. However, putting merchandise in one's own bags probably appears to be suspicious activity, so I would not encourage doing that lest one is detained on suspicion of shoplifting.

Answer

There is no law about this. Stores are private property, and are free to make their own rules about what customers are allowed to do. But as Mr. Cohen notes, putting merchandise into your own bag will look suspicious. And if you still have things in your bag after you put your purchases down on the checkout counter, they store may believe you're hiding other merchandise in the bag. They would be allowed to detain you if that happens and, perhaps, search your bag.

Question

I live in an apartment that is connected to another apartment (condex) and have recently had an excessive rodent issue. I have attempted to resolve this issue on my own (setting traps and disposing of dead mice) however in the past 3 weeks I have caught 6 mice and I feel that this issue is now excessive. I have contacted my landlord and his response is basically "not my problem." Isnt he legally responsible to assist with the problem if the Rental agreement states he is responsible for rodent issues?

Answer

Under the state sanitary code, the landlord is responsible to treat for rodents no matter what the lease says. You should call the Board of Health for your town and ask them to inspect. If they find that there is a problem, they will contact the landlord to fix the problem.

Question

I was put on PWV and the judge said I would be on probation for a year with some fines and counseling. Whenever the order of court came in the mail it said the probation was only 30 days. So is my probation a year or 30 days?

Answer

I'd call the clerk of the criminal court or your probation officer. Look like a mess up but who knows. I['d consider buying a lottery ticket if it really is 30 days.

Question

I am currently pursuing child support from my children's father. I reside in Texas, and he is in New York. We went through our divorce in New York and a child support order was instituted. While in NY, I received an opportunity to relocate to Texas for work. My then ex-husband requested I release him of child support arrears, then he will permit me to relocate with our 3 children. Since we shared custody, I needed his agreement.

I granted him this request and relocated. In our parting verbal agreement, I agreed to lowering his continued pymts so that he can save in order to and visit the kids a few times a year...his savings would go to travel fees. As a result, I began having difficulty receiving regular payments, to eventually receiving nothing.

Our oldest 2 are now 22 and 20 years old and I have for about 5 years now been pursuing out of state the reinstating of the original order. My 20 year old moved out just in Nov of 2013, after becoming pregnant during college. My 22 year old has been at home attending college. And my 17 yr old son (turning 18 on May 25th), is a senior preparing for college this fall.

I am having trouble receiving feedback from the TX office that is working my case, and can never get any response from the NY office

Questions:

-Do I still have rights to receive back child support, at least from 2008 when he stopped paying even our agreed lowered payments?

-Why are the NY courts asking for MY financials seemingly every other month after I have provided it the first time asked?

-Why are the courts allowing him to supeona my bank records? How is this serving the case?

Thank you for any information you can provide.

Answer

1. Back child support: Yes.

2. Why NY asking for financials: Who can explain why the IV-D agencies do what they do?

3. Allowing bank records: You could have contested the subpoena and should have prevailed if you did.

Frankly, you need a private attorney. I know you probably don't have much money, but private attorneys in child support cases pay for themselves (you do have to pay upfront) because they will get more money than you can get on your own, they can stop harassment, and they can get the other parent to pay you back for your legal fees.

Question

OCGA 17-4-26 provides for a commitment hearing within 72 hours of arrest with a warrant. OCGA 17-4-62 provides for a commitment hearing within 48 hours of arrest without a warrant. How can DeKalb County justify providing this hearing only for felony arrestees and not for misdemeanor arrestees?

Misdemeanor arrestees are automatically entitled to a bond. IF you make bond you are not entitled to a commitment hearing. So, IF you are automatically given a bond, there is less concern about a prelim.

Have you lived in Oklahoma for at least the past six (6) months? If so, then Oklahoma would be the home state for the child. You should consider filing something here to keep jurisdiction in Oklahoma unless you want to fight a custody battle in Texas.

Question

My daughter's father has never really been in the picture. He was granted joint custody in June 2012. He has not seen or asked about our daughter since September 2012. What is the best way to go about getting his parental rights taken away? Should I confront him? (He is very rude and always wants to argue) Or should I go through hiring a lawyer? He hasn't paid any child support since then and from the get go all together is he over $20,000 behind. My husband has always been the father figure for my daughter and she looks to him as her daddy. He would like to adopt her.

Answer

The father has the right to visit, he isn't ordered to visit. It is unfortunate he doesn't want to visit, but there is really nothing you can do to make him be interested. The court is hesitant to terminate parental rights except in the adoption process. The law is both parents are to support their child. Your option is to hire an attorney and file for contempt or, you may want to go to your Magistrate court and make and application for an abandonment warrant. If a parent fails to support a child for over 30 days, it is considered abandonment. You may at least want to meet with and speak with an attorney to consider the best avenue to take. I also suggest you immediately have a will drafted. The father would have the right to be the child's guardian if something were to happen to you. However, if he continues to refuse to have a relationship, the court would consider someone you named to be the child's guardian.

Question

Wrongful termination??? I missed work the week of 12/27 (bronchitis) and 1/30 (mental/physically disabled) due to illnesses that were treated and medically documented. I contacted employer 12/27 to inform of my condition with update calls from my husband throughout the week. On 1/30, I emailed employer regarding medical condition, and my husband called employer 6 times throughout the week to update my condition with him. Employer stated I was a NCNS and job abandonment..this was his reason for termination. Can he do this with my medical documentation and husband calls documented, as well?

Answer

While there is no such thing as "wrongful termination" in Georgia's state laws, you may have some federal protection under the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). If your employer is covered and if you are an eligible employee, and if you had not used up the available leave time during the preceding 12 month period, you could have a remedy under the law for the employer's unlawful interference with your right to take FMLA leave, and its unlawful discrimination because you exercised leave rights. It does appear that you provided the notice to place him on notice that you required such leave. Without more information, however, this is all I can tell you.

Question

Is it legal for a company to require that you pay them a fee before they will pay you for services and products that you provided them?

I live in Massachusetts and provide services for Simon Malls, they require that you pay into their "supplier qualification program" ( at $125 annually) or they will refuse to pay for products and services that you supplied.

They say this should be considered a cost of doing business on my part, and if they think that I am charging them back for the fee I will be punished.

Now, it seems, I can't raise my prices to coincide with the growing cost of my supplies and bills because if I do they will accuse me of violating this contract and I will loose future business with them.

I can't imagine doing this to one of my vendors ( "Thank you for the supplies, I'm going to keep them, but before I pay you you have to pay me $125") or getting away with it in a store: ( I'm going to take this merchandise home now; If you want me to pay you some time in the future, please pay me $125 first.)

Is this legal?

Answer

Simon Property Group are big league operators. They never lose an opportunity to charge a fee to tenants (I have represented a tenant group at a couple of their properties). If the account is worth it to you, then pay the fee, else you can decline. Nothing illegal about it -- they actually do due diligence on their vendors so an administrative charge is not without justification. No, it isn't nice.

State - California

Family Law

My Ex requested in his response for me to pay his attorney fees (I was pro per). The Judge said she would take the matter under submission. I had proof of everything my Ex said in his Response was a lie, but I was not able to say anything to defend myself, because my Ex had a telephonic hearing and he hung up before I could say anything. What can I do if the Judge rules against me since I was not allowed to defend myself?

Answer

Since you apparently were at some type of a hearing, it is very difficult to give you advice since you didn't indicate what type of hearing it was, and why you are using the term, "defend" yourself. I am sure that you had some type of an opportunity to make a statement during the hearing, but as you can see, handling this type of case pro per, was not a good idea. So, I would need to know the type of hearing, and then depending on the ruling and why the ruling was made, I would not be able to state what, if anything, could be done.

Question

I live in Florida and rent and apartment along with my husband. We recently found out that the apartment has been in foreclosure since January 2010. Also there is an auction date in early May. Luckily, we found an apartment and will be moving by the end of April. We called our Landlord to ask him for our deposit and he refuses to give it to us. What can we do?

Answer

What does your lease state? Are you breaking it? just because there is an auction date does not mean you have to leave. The new purchaser, if there is one, will give you an option to stay or leave.

Answer

Above answer asks very relevant questions. What do you want to do?

Some guidance can be found in the protection afforded by

http://www.occ.gov/publications/publications-by-type/comptrollers-handbook/ptfa.pdf

Answer

If Mtg-holder/Plaintiff wants you to move, you can sue LL for damages. You should read the part of Florida Statute-chapter 83 as it speaks to deposits. You will need to send appropriate notices to LL....that you deem lease broken by LL, that you demand your deposit back. You have to provide a new address to LL. You can sue LL...but may only get a Judgment that you can't collect on if he/she is insolvent. Good luck. Tom Rosenblum

Question

Calif.

no rent control I have rented 1 unit in a triplex for 3 years. 2 weeks

ago the existing property owner hands me a 30 day no fault eviction

notice. Then he tells me he has sold the triplex and its in escrow &

the new owner wants to move into my unit & that means that I only

get 30 days becouse of the owners moving in . Yesterday I was at a civic

outing & seen the new buyer there. So I walked over to him &

asked him when he was moving into my unit. He looked at me & said

WHAT! are you talking about I never said that. Are you crazy why in the

hell would I move into that little place when I have a beautiful two

story house out on the lake . Question can I bring charges against the

owner for making fraudulent claims in giving me a false notice so he

could close escrow 30 days faster.

Answer

Only the District Attorney can file charges. As I have repeatedly told you, it is a defective notice and you have to oppose the landlord's eviction based on the defective notice. You need to be focused on eviction defense and not on filing nonsense.

Does Texas have a minimal number of years to be married before you can request and obtain spousal support? I was married to this person for...

Question

Does Texas have a minimal number of years to be married before you can request and obtain spousal support?

I was married to this person for 9 years in the past, then he married someone else for 10 to 12 years before we remarried. About 2 years after his divorce, we remarried. This current time has only been 3 1/2 years; and he threw me out of "his" apartment for being an over-spender.

He pays my car insurance on a family plan, subject to change January 1, as he has stated. He had committed to make my car payment in front of a Police Officer--changed within the week. He had committed to making my phone and internet service bill--stopped payment on that without informing me, so I had to get my own phone plan.

My husband makes $60,000 annually on disability and VA benefits (all non-taxable). His income when we were first married in 2011 only amounted to partial VA benefits of about $1400 a month; and I had a job making about $1500 monthly. In 2012 his SS Disability was granted; and in 2013 he was approved by the VA for full 100% service-connected disability.

I have a SS disability claim in process but do not know how long that will be before processing is complete.

Therefore, my husband was not a "rich" man and I a poor woman when he remarried me. He controlled all the money and had me taken off and then put back on the checking/savings account at least 4 times during this current marriage. He has been mentally and verbally abusive of me since he started earning these higher amounts; and my therapist and Psychiatrist tell me that this is definately Abuse.

In fact, this is why he threw me out of the apartment; I had spent $23 at the beauty shop having a haircut and $63 at Wal-Mart on a few items. He began yelling at me immediately when I got home from Wal-Mart for duplicating items he "had already purchased and I need to check the pantry before going shopping"'--that I was out of control with spending. Therefore he would take me off the checking and savings account on Monday (it was Saturday). Then he said he wanted me to leave.....Not a penny to take with me....

Answer

Only a judge can remove you from your home. Feel free to call the police or constable in your area and they can tell him the save thing.

You might be entitled to some temporary spousal support while the divorce is pending to make sure that you are not homeless or totally broke.

Look on this website and on www.avvo.com for an attorney in your county. You might look for a pro bono (free) attorney to take your case. Look on the State Bar of Texas website for pro bono organizations in Texas.

Good luck!

Question

I have a judgment against a tenant. He was not served with a prejudgment claim of right to possession because he had iron fences and locks so he was served based on an order to post. Now that I have judgment, almost every other week the tenant causes someone else to file a post judgment claim. Every claim (8 as of today) has been either denied on the facts or because the claimant never showed up. Just before the sheriff goes to evict (again and again) someone else files a claim. HOW DO I STOP THIS! The judge will not give me an order that no more of these claims are allowed. HELP!

Answer

The sheriff should be serving any prejudgment claim of right to possession when he serves the writ of possession. The court in your unlawful detainer case should have set a final date for any and all prejudgment claims of right to possession. This should have happened once, and the tenant should have been evicted by now.

Question

I signed a lease with a roommate in April of 2013. Her and I ended up getting into a disagreement and she moved out in August of that year, when we had just signed a 13-month lease four months prior. She stopped paying all rent and utilities, leaving me with everything. I am pregnant and do not want to have some stranger move in with me. Can I sue her for the unpaid rent since she is a co-tenant? She's left me in a horrible situation and I think she should fulfill her financial obligation. Could I also sue her for utilities? I guess I would just like to inflict the most damage possible as she has been particularly nasty about all of this. Can I include my court fees as well?

Answer

It all depends on your written agreement. If you have none, my guess rent contribution is all you can get, but it would be up to the judge.

Question

I own a retail store (coffee shop) dba under an S Corp. I was looking to purchase a separate rental property (outright) and then to lease to other tenants. Can I use the pre-tax funds from the store to purchase and write that off as business expense? I know the after-tax route but I was wondering about whether that can be done as a business expense.

Answer

The purchase of a capital asset (like real property) does not give you a tax deduction for your purchase. The building (as compared to the land) can be depreciated over a period of time and the annual depreciation will offset the rental income just like your other paid expenses, even though you do not pay out money each year for the purchase price.

Bottom line: The purchase of rental property is not a business expense.

I suggest you retain a good CPA and do tax planning so that you can take appropriate tax deductions and plan for the tax cost of yourself as well as your business.

Answer

I agree with the previous answer. When a business purchases an asset with a long life, such as a building, the appropriate accounting for both tax and "book" purposes is to capitalize it and depreciate it over a certain number of years, not more rapidly than permitted by the tax code. Also, to the extent the purchase price includes land in addition to the structure, the land is not depreciable and hence is never "written off," neither in the year of purchase nor over time.

Question

I live in MN and found out about 10 days ago that I have a warrant in CO from 7/13 for Fraud by check-other means which I had no clue about. I am trying to wade through everything and handle this long distance as I don't have the financial means (as I am currently on unpaid leave from my job pending resolution of this matter) to go back and forth between states or hire an attorney in CO and was told that I have to take care of the warrant/bond for $1500 before requesting a court date. How can I go about doing this from MN?

Answer

Possibly by having an attorney try to speak with the DA about it.

But the odds are that since a warrant already went out, you're going to have to come here.

Question

In California the court of Appeals dose not or excludes newly discovered evidence

in criminal appeals to be entered or allowed! My question is this if after trial a defendant finds evidence to prove his innocents how dose one bring forth this evidence before a court? Also if this evidence was discussed in the trial court but ruled to not be allowed by the trial court judge, what dose one do? My case is still pending in the California Court of Appeals the 4th district. can you advise on this matter? The evidence was discovered after trial however it was refered to in the trial court when the victumwitness said he never took any photos of me the defendant where a police report found after trial placed the victumwitness in his turck taking said to id the defendant in court two months later, because the victum witness could not id the defendant outside the courtroom when asked by the DA if he sees the defendant here outside the courtroom and he stated no he's not here when I a mere six feet away from him. The police report shows him the victumwitness taking photos some five days after that indecent in the courthouse.

Answer

You haven't explained why the evidence turned up after trial instead of before, which is an important detail. Another important detail is how and why the court could have ruled on the use of evidence which had not been found.

Whatever the answers to these questions might be. the Court of Appeal is unlikely to consider the evidence as part of your appeal. But it very well might consider it as part of a habeas corpus petition. You should ask your appellate lawyer whether and how you should bring one.

Good luck.

If you are under joint tenancy on a property in California, do both individuals on the title have the legal right to obtain the renter's con...

Question

If you are under joint tenancy on a property in California, do both individuals on the title have the legal right to obtain the renter's contact information? Can one party of the joint tenancy withhold this information? Finally, can one party of the joint tenancy draw up and enter into a rental agreement with a tenant (3rd party) without the other joint tenant's knowledge or agreement?

Answer

An extension of the Pauli Principal in quantum physics says that two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Unfortunately, lawyers are notoriously bad at math and science, which is why we generally intelligent people go to law school instead of into medicine or engineering. One result is that we have the idea of joint tenancy. The legal concept of joint tenancy would require parallel universes to actually work as designed, because it gives each joint tenant pretty much each and every right that they would have if they alone owned the property. They can only sell, borrow against, etc., their own share, but in terms of use and occupancy, it's as if they each own the whole thing. That means they can each rent out the whole thing without the other person's involvement at all.

Having realized that this can become quite messy, we invented two other things. The first is the joint tenancy agreement. This allows cooperative, reasonable joint tenants to limit and allocate their rights in the property, so that they can harmoniously own and use the property together. This is the proper way for multiple people to own income rental property, for example, or how multiple owners of small multi-unit buildings in rent controlled cities like Berkeley and San Francisco each occupy one unit while evading the condo conversion limits in those cities.

For situations where one or more joint tenants are irrational and uncooperative, we have invented the partition action. In the old days where most property was used for farming or game reserves, partition literally divided the parcel and allocated half to each joint tenant by court order. Now, with modern subdivision and zoning laws, and much property occupied by buildings, the courts can no longer divide the property.

Instead they order it sold by the sheriff (just like an enforcement of judgment foreclosure) and the proceeds distributed according to complicated rules regarding credit for contributions to the acquisition and ownership of the property. Basically, any loans are paid first. Then the distribution starts at 50/50 (or 25/25/25/25 or whatever) and then each joint tenant asserts claims for reimbursement where allowed, and the court comes up with a final allocation fo the proceeds.

The trouble with this is that a property never brings anything close to full market value when sold by the sheriff. So all the joint tenants lose a lot of money. For this reason, even the most irrational, uncooperative joint tenant usually comes around when faced with a partition action, and most often the parties negotiate a deal to sell the property and divide the proceeds by agreement, or if they cannot agree, then to sell the property by agreement and only take the allocation issue to court.

Answer

First, I am in full agreement with Mr. McCormick's answer.

Next, as to the "right to obtain the renter's contact information," I would have to ask, from whom, and for what purpose? From the renter? From the other joint tenant? I would be inclined to think that if just asking for it doesn't produce the desired results, then perhaps a lawsuit followed by discovery questions would -- thus establishing that the second individual on title has a "legal right" to the contact information. So -- yes, there is a "legal right" to the information, but that right would have to be enforced in court if the other party possessing the information is at first unwilling to share it. That's my answer to your questions #1 and #2. As to question #3, Mr. McCormick has provided a detailed answer, but the short answer is "yes."

It's not exactly clear from your facts if there are three children that you share with your ex, however, I would suggest you not treat your youngest child as any different than the other two in your efforts for seeking a change of custody. In the absence of a judicial determination otherwise (which would have included some genetic testing from the other putative father), the legal status of your youngest child is that she is still yours. Your case is sufficiently complex such that I would suggest at least consulting an attorney to see if you should retain one to insure you get the results you want.

Good luck,

Question

My Husband abandoned me. He is from another country. I dont know if he is still living in the US, or not. Have not seen or heard from him in almost 7 years. We have no kids together, no property. I want to divorce him to put closure to this part of my life life, how do I do this? (Florida Resident)

Answer

you can get service of process and the court will take jurisdiction over the case if you publish proper notice in the paper. An attorney is recommended.

Answer

As Mr. Smitten does, I would always recommend an attorney. However, should you choose to go it alone for financial reasons, your steps should be as follows. Forms referenced below may be found at your local clerk of court's office or online in the family law forms section of flcourts.org.

1. File for divorce. You may also choose to file an affidavit of indigency if you feel that the court's filing fees are unaffordable.

2. Perform a "diligent search" to find your husband. For guidance, use an affidavit of diligent search to determine what steps you can take.

3. After completing the diligent search, if you still have not found your husband, move for service of process by publication.

3a. If you find your husband, you should serve him the complaint for divorce along with a summons. In this case, you would have to handle the divorce as a normal court case. This could get very complicated, and I would doubly recommend hiring an attorney at this point.

4. If your husband does not respond to your complaint within the time for service by publication, you can file a motion for a default judgment of divorce.

Note that a default judgment only declares that the parties are divorced, and does not address distribution of property or alimony. However, since you state there is no property, this will not be as much of a concern.

Question

I live in NJ. I was a stay at home mom for 13 yrs. then I worked for 10 months. Went on disability for breast cancer for 9 months ( I am in remission now) and back to work for past 8 months. My husband of 21 yrs told me he is looking for an apartment & will be leaving as soon as he does. We own a home for 15 yrs. for which he, being the bread winner of the family, pays the bills for. He told me I should live here & let the house go into foreclosure then look for an apartment myself. We have a 15 yr old son. This has been his home since he was born. Can my husband just walk out on us, leaving me with all the bills? I cannot possibly pay the mortgage of $2400 as I only bring home $1000 a month.

Answer

You should consult with a divorce attorney ASAP. Call me at 732/773/2768 to discuss.

Answer

You can ask the Court to compel your husband to continue paying the bill.

Overstay-10 year banI overstayed my student visa for more than 5 years due to political issues in my home country, plus ran out of money to ...

Question

Overstay-10 year ban

I overstayed my student visa for more than 5 years due to political issues in my home country, plus ran out of money to study. Yes, I violated the law, not proud of it either. However, I did later manage to finish school and get an MBA degree and worked illegally by stating I am a US citizen, provided DL and SS Card. Paid my taxes every year. Left the US on my own accord (without deportation). It has been 7 years. Obviously I could have gotten married to change my status while in the US, but I would never do that to anyone just to change my status.

I am aware of the 10 year ban, but not sure I understand it all. Can I enter the US before the 10 years are over (or ever afterwards) under an EB-5 visa? or since I am getting married to a US Citizen now for the right reasons (how ironic!), should I wait to apply for perm resident through my wife?

Or even after I get married I am still banned altogether since I also lied and worked stating I am US Citizen? I appreciate your help in this matter.

Answer

Even if you get married the ban is applicable to you. If the consulate finds out you have falsely claimed a citizenship the ban will be lifetime. Once you get married to a US citizen you can apply for a waiver for the overstay, but not for the false claim to citizenship.

Answer

You cannot apply for U.S. legal permanent residency through employment until the 10 years outside the United States has been met.

If your U.S. citizen spouse petitions you, you will not only need to Consular Process the case, but you will only get your immigrant visa, assuming you have not been outside the U.S. for 10 years, if a waiver of inadmissibility is approved, assuming the Department of State does not find out that you lied about being a U.S. citizen!

Question

I am thinking of starting a busines that offers Wellness, including Reiki, to people. Services would be offered in my home as well as client locations. Would an LLC offer me any personal protection over a d/b/a formation? I would be the sole member of the LLC. Would the answer be different if I offered no services in my home?

Answer

Generally speaking, an LLC offer limited liability while being a sole proprietor (a.k.a. DBA) offers none. There are also tax and business advantages such as being able to sell the business, add partners and employ others. Your question about your home is very good and very relevant. If you own your home then you should protect your assets as much as possible and creating an LLC would offer some protection I highly encourage you to seek the advice of a startup attorney.

Please contact my office at your earliest convenience for assistance in this matter. I offer a flat low fee for entity formations.

Question

My husband inherited 1/2 of his mother's house. The house is paid for. We moved in upon her death.

His brother,who owns the other half, is claiming the entire house is his because he is trustee of the trust.

He has filed an unlawful detainer to evict us. My husband was served with the legal docs tonight.

My husband is using the local Legal Aid Society. He seems to think that the court will grant him the house because he is paying the taxes, HOAs, and doing all of the trustee's work.

We have a 3 year old son. I'm very worried about being put out on the street while these two brothers duke it out over the house.

Do I need an attorney to represent me and my child? I thought with two owners, the court could require a partition sale, but not eviction.

Some help is greatly appreciated.

Answer

What would make your husband think it was OK to just move in, without the trustee's agreement? THe Trustee has the right to evict you and to sell the house, but it might take a while.

Answer

Suggest youn obtain probate litigation counsel to represent you in this proceeding. The terms of the trust control, but the trustee has fiduciary duties to all beneficiaries, including himself. So obtain counsel, determine what the fair value of the rent would be, be prepared to rent until a petition for partition can be accomplished, with you maybe being able to purchase the brother's interest at fair market value.

Question

Hi my brother has been married with wife who suffered from shopperholic. She filed the bunkrupsy before and my brother knew about it but my brother was told by her the reason for bunkrupsy is not her and it is her ex husband. He is considering getting divorced. The huge debt has been found recently and my brother didnt know about it for long time...the wife works and she makes good money so as my brother. When my brother talk with one of the divorce lawyer, he has been told that my brother has to pay half debt of her as he is her husband. His wife is saying that she is going to take care of it herself. Is there anyway to avoid my brother to pay her debt? Also there is two children between them. How can my brother get 100% custody for children?

Please advise.

Answer

Your brother may be responsible for any debts that are considered "marital." Marital debts are typically those debts incurred during the marriage that resulted from the purchase of marital property, or which benefited both parties (joint vacations, etc.). On the other hand debts incurred by one party for items that benefited only one party may not be considered marital debt. There are, of course, exceptions to this, so your brother should consult with an attorney.

With respect to custody, here too your brother should consult with an attorney. There are many, many factors that need to be reviewed.

Please feel free to have your brother contact me for a free initial consultation (212) 786-7539.

Answer

It's basically all bad news for your brother.

1. Her debt is marital debt and generally belongs to both of them. However, if she agrees in a stipulation to pay it all herself, then great.

2. It will be very difficult for him to get custody absent a showing that she is an unfit mother.

Question

I am a single Father of a 7 yr old. I have sole legal and residential custody of my son. Mother is absent and on the run from child support. I'm trying to help a lifelong friend and her 3 kids move to Florida (I'll call her B and my friend below C because they both are named Becky. My good friend C (I'm her 10yr old daughter's God-Father) has offered to to care for my son while I help B move so that I do not have to withdraw him from school. I may be gone for 2-3 months. What kind of paperwork do I need to draw up and where would I need to file it (or do I need to even involve the court prefer not to due to me being on Social Security and not able to really afford the court fees) so that C will be able to interact with his school and deal with any medical issues that may arise in my absence. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Answer

Depending on the amount of time and how much power you would like C to have you may be able to draft paperwork without involving the Court. My biggest concern would be about Mother not having an information about this. An attorney would need to review your custody documents to determine what is applicable in your case.

Question

My landlord is attempting to charge me an extra 1800 dollars for landscaping of the lawn after we moved out. He kept my full security deposit and will not send me an official itemized invoice of charges. The one he sent only states poorly written "services" and a total in a grammar and spelling error filled word document for the lawn. It looks like he wrote it himself. He also never gave us the opportunity to fix it before we moved out. He is taking us to small claims court. Does he have a case for the extra 1800?

Answer

The State of California publishes an excellent online article on Security Deposits.

http://www.dca.ca.gov/publications/landlordbook/sec-deposit.shtml

Your landlord could have a case IF your rental agreement stated that you were going to be responsible for watering the lawn and maintaining it. IF it was a great lawn when you moved in and you failed to maintain it, he could have a case against you.

IF you only rented the house, and there is nothing in your rental agreement about the lawn and you went out and trashed the lawn you could be responsible for your conduct in fixing the lawn.

But if there is nothing in the agreement and you did nothing to the lawn, you are not likely going to be responsible for the lawn.

I suggest you read California's website on Security deposits, and do a counterclaim against him for illegally withholding your security deposit without making the proper pre-move out inspection, if in fact you requested one before you moved.

Question

I am a salary employee who has been filling in for an injured co-worker at night and over the weekend. My job consists of more or less secretarial work, and my co-worker is an addictions counselor. I am licensed to counsel, but it is not part of my normal day to day. My employer believes that because I am salary, I should not be compensated for doing someone else's job. Is this correct?

Answer

Not necessarily. Speak to a lawyer about potential violations of the FLSA. Your employer should compensate you for the extra hours.

Question

I'm 20 living with my Mother for the next 2-3 months. She will be moving out soon and I will be taking over the payments on the house. She doesn't like the items in my room and stated she wanted me to get rid of them. I told her no. She then said she would box them up and get rid of them herself. These items were all bought/given to me. None of them were paid by her. Is this legal? What steps, legally, can I make against her if she does in fact, get rid of them withought my knowledge?

Answer

It appears from the information you provided that this is your mother's house and she has control over it's contents. If you are paying rent for living on the premises then you would have control over the contents of the part covered by the rental agreement. You are both adults. If she takes your property and disposes of it you could sue her for conversion of your private property assuming you could identify the property and establish its value. If the property is contraband you may not be able to recover for its loss.

Question

I bought food from a sonic drive in and bit into a screw in my food can I take them to court

Answer

Take them to court for what? What serious injuries did you sustain and how much are your current and future medical bills? If you are asking whether finding something in your food is a golden ticket, no. If you tell Sonic it is a golden coupon for free meal or two.

Answer

For what? Unless you swallowed the screw and it caused you medical harm you have no case. In fact, by making this into a mountain, you have blown what you should have done. Had you spoken to the manager you would have gotten a refund and probably some coupons for some free food. By escalating this, you'll lose even that.

Question

Feeling violated! Strip search after being pulled over for non working tail light but was never issued fix it ticket or even one for lack of Ins. Then couple months later In Feb 2012 we got pulled over leaving fast food drive+thru by 6 police vehicles was detained while officers did vehicle search and was told they had search warrant for home. They placed my son in back of police vehicle with me as we waited for my mother and father to come get him. I was of course in hand cuffs since I am some big drug lord. When they removed my son so he can go with grandparents they searched his pockets and asked did Mom give you anything or ask you to do something for her? Doesn't seem legal and has changed my sons view of Police. After house was raided me and my husband each received a ticket for pipe. He was driving when pulled over and had suspended license which they made a misdemeanor not traffic violation. Case for pipe was dismissed but when sentenced for the driving on suspended license my husband was placed on informal probation and ordered to do 30 NA meetings can they do that on case that has no drug charge? We have been harrassed for years my husband at one point paid of tickets to get lic but they found a excuse to resuspend. My husband has no lic because he made bad choices as teen and wasn't able to pay fines he was homeless due to mothers addiction problems. He works hard to provide for our family and has to work so when his ride falls through he drives himself but then gets pulled over for what should be a fix it ticket until see no driver lic. And then they charge him with that and nothing else. Never for speeding or anything like that so why can't he get a restricted license for work ? It seems like the they want him to lose job and turn into the person they accuse him of being, drug dealer/gang banger and have showed my son that even if you do nothing wrong the police can "treat you bad, say, and do whatever even if your good guy it makes them mad that they were well wrong" they have embarrassed us multiple times yelling at my mother "you know they have dope their dope dealers" but my son is smart he knows we don't such things and went from wanting to be a officers to not trusting them. Help plsaae

Answer

They can only require NA meetings if it was a negotiated sentence or

if there was a Harvey waiver. A Harvey waiver allows the court to consider unconvicted counts

Question

I am 20 years old. I stole 2 - 3 cups on liquor from my father and drank it. After about 2 hours my dad was telling me he is calling an ambulance. I do remember I couldn't breathe and I was not stable, rolling around I had no idea what is wrong with me but I knew i needed help. my eyes felt like they were rolling to the top of my head and all i seen was black. almost like i was seeing things. when the paramedics came they took me into the ambulance. when i was in there i hear a emt say "there is nothing wrong with you" I am a light weight drinker who at the time should not have took the liquor. when i was in the stretched I felt a sharp pain going into my kidney/liver area. I had jumped up and seen that a emt was pinning me down with his knee. I fainted a bit i woke up tied to the stretcher and a cop that was saying your going to jail tonight and the emt said he was pressing charges. when i was in booking the report said i tried to push his arms away and hit the side of his chest which I do not remember hitting anyone I am not a violent person. I have not been to jail in my life but here I am being arrested for a felony. I was treated like an animal when i was in that ambulance. my father and brother seen what they did to me while i was in the ambulance and the emt's inside noticed them and moved in front of the back windows so they couldn't see.

I am a real estate agent. House thieves moved into a vacant home I have listed, the main thieves have been arrested, but their (gang) still occupies the premises.

They advertise the house on Craig's list to unsuspecting victims, and then take off with the deposits.

You need a lawyer and need one IMMEDIATELY (not soon - now). Start calling landlord-tenant lawyers in your area.

It depends. It could be seven (7) days or thirty (30) days depending on what the landlord is suing for. Have a local attorney review and advise.

Does a wife have to pay inheritance tax if her husband dies?

Question

Does a wife have to pay inheritance tax if her husband dies?

Answer

Thank you for your question.

Many people mistakenly believe that if they are beneficiaries under a will or intestate heirs at law of a decedent that they will have to pay an inheritance tax. However, whether an individual is named in a will, or inherits under the intestate laws of Pennsylvania, they do not pay any inheritance tax. The fact is that, in Pennsylvania, if any inheritance tax is due, the estate is liable for its payment.

Whether or not an inheritance tax is due will depend on the relationship of the beneficiary to the decedent, or the status of the beneficiary. The estate will not be liable for any inheritance tax where the beneficiary falls into one of the following three categories:

1. The surviving spouse of the deceased person;

2. Parents or stepparents who inherit from a child who was 21 years old, or younger; or

3. Charitable organizations and government entities.

Therefore, there would be no inheritance tax imposed on the estate for anything which you inherited as the surviving spouse of the decedent.

Kindest regards,

ANDREA

Question

Hello. On the Exception area of a Title Report it states that a deed of trust to secure indebtedness with assignment of rents in the amount of $200,000. What does this mean? It also states that only deed affecting said land is one from grantor and grantee with a record date. How does that affect it?Thanks!

Answer

The exception means the title insurer will not insure against the recorded deed of trust. The deed of trust is used as security for an underlying debt. Lay people call them mortgages, but legally they are not the exact same as a mortgage. This means the title company has found an existing deed of trust that can be foreclosed on if it is not paid off and cleared with a reconveyance.

As to the deed issue, I would have to read the exact report to advise you.

Answer

Mr. Roach is exactly right. Title insurance only insures against claims against title that they do not disclose but that affect record title (and a few other things that might not be on record, but not much). The preliminary report will show the seller's deed of trust as an exception, meaning that if it is not paid off in the escrow for the sale, they will not defend against the lender asserting the lien. If the loan is paid off, then the final title insurance will show no exception for that, but will show an exception for YOUR new loan. The reference to the deed suggests that there has only been one prior sale of this property on or around the record date. Lastly, your real estate agent is not doing their job if you have to ask us this stuff instead of them.

Question

How can I take my son 16yo out of the County? I am primary parent in joint custody and the father's house is very unstable. The father and his wife are both alcoholics and there is fighting all the time. I live in Beaumont for work purposes and my son wants to come here with me. My 17yo daughter wants to stay with her aunt to be able to graduate with her friends and at that school. Their father said they can't and that he would disown them both. Please help.

Answer

I have no idea what "disown" means.

He can re-write his will and exclude them from his estate. Of course, he can do that anyway for any reason.

What you are truly asking is "will I be in contempt of court". The answer is that you have to read your divorce decree or the latest legal document. Is there a residency restriction? If not, then you can do whatever you want. If there is, then a judge might hold you in contempt of court if your ex decided to take you to court. If you move and he does nothing for 6 months then you are fine.

Question

My LLC is going to purchase 30% of an existing business. My question is, can my LLC be held liable for past issues such as employee, contract disputes and financial issues.

Answer

Everything depends on the terms of the transaction. If you are buying a percentage of a corporation, for instance, then the liabilities will stay with the corporation.

Answer

Yes of course, to the extent that your existing LLC will now be an owner of this business and there is always the risk of successor liability. This is why asset purchases are typically safer than stock purchases. You should be sure to conduct the proper due diligence on the entity before you invest in it (see link below for check list of some of things we look for: http://lanternlegal.com/upload_files/DUE DILIGENCE CHECKLIST.pdf)

I would suggest that you discuss your plans with a lawyer in private before diving in. If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.

The I-864 is a legally binding contract between the sponsor (or co-sponsor) and the U.S. Government. If you are a co-sponsor to an intending immigrant, then, once they are approved for their immigrant visa, you are jointly responsible (with the sponsor) to prospectively reimburse any government agency for any "means tested" benefit the immigrant might later obtain.

Your obligation only ends when the immigrant pays into social security for 40 quarters, naturalizes or dies.

As it appears that you already have trepidation about this, you might want to reconsider before you sign anything.

Question

my daughter no longer wants her 1 1/2 month old baby daughter, she is very young..how do I go about getting custody of the baby, we are from Michigan

Answer

You should meet with an experienced family law attorney in the county where you live. It sounds like a private placement adoption could help.

www.MidMichiganDivorce.com

Answer

You would not be able to get "custody," as you don't have standing. You could apply for guardianship through the probate court. If she agrees to it, it will be much easier and simpler to obtain. Is the father in the picture or has there been a legal father declared through either the signing of an Affidavit of Parentage or a DNA test? That will make a difference. Once you have guardianship you can eventually file for relative adoption of the child.

My firm would gladly help you with this or speak to you about it in greater detail. There is never any charge for the initial consultation.

Question

My sister bought a house with her boyfriend. He has now begun drinking heavily and she needs to terminate the situation. He refuses to leave the property, which is fine. She is willing to leave and give up any equity. How can she remove her name from the loan and not be held responsible for the debt once she leaves the property? There are not married.

Answer

Your sister will not be able to "remove her name from the loan and not be held

responsible for the debt" unless the lender or current holder of the note

agrees to it which in my opinion is not too likely.

Question

I have a client who has a now 3 year old daughter whom she believes may have birth related 'deficits' arising from a late term performed C-Section, beyond as I recall the 40th week. It has taken quite some time to get copies of the voluminous medical records, and today is the 3rd year of her birth.

I believe there is an exception to the 1 and 3 year statute because as it should apply to minors below the age of six, the malpractice action must be filed within three years of the date the injury occurred or before the minor's eighth birthday, whichever period is greater.

Is this correct?

Answer

That is correct but you need to consult with an attorney right away to review the facts and times. You should not wait for records or anything else.

Answer

Here are the relevant sections:

340.4. An action by or on behalf of a minor for personal injuries sustained before or in the course of his or her birth must be commenced within six years after the date of birth, and the time the minor is under any disability mentioned in Section 352 shall not be excluded in computing the time limited for the commencement of the action.

340.5. In an action for injury or death against a health care provider based upon such person's alleged professional negligence, the time for the commencement of action shall be three years after the date of injury or one year after the plaintiff discovers, or through the use of reasonable diligence should have discovered, the injury, whichever occurs first. In no event shall the time for commencement of legal action exceed three years unless tolled for any of the following: (1) upon proof of fraud, (2) intentional concealment, or (3) the presence of a foreign body, which has no therapeutic or diagnostic purpose or effect, in the person of the injured person. Actions by a minor shall be commenced within three years from the date of the alleged wrongful act except that actions by a minor under the full age of six years shall be commenced within three years or prior to his eighth birthday whichever provides a longer period. Such time limitation shall be tolled for minors for any period during which parent or guardian and defendant's insurer or health care provider have committed fraud or collusion in the failure to bring an action on behalf of the injured minor for professional negligence.

Question

Someone else sends a package in your name. The contents are questionable. What legal repercussions are there for the persons name that's on the package?

Answer

If the person's whose name is on the package never receives it, then there are no repercussions. If the person receives it, then there is a possibility of a charge of possession of the contents. If they open the package, there is no question about possession.

When such packages go through the mail or other delivery services, many times law enforcement officials will allow the delivery and then immediately execute a search warrant to see if the package has been opened.

If i file a landlord eviction and I sell my property in the meantime before I go to court, will my eviction process continue for the new owner?

Question

If i file a landlord eviction and I sell my property in the meantime before I go to court, will my eviction process continue for the new owner?

Answer

No. Unless the landlord is a company that you own and you sell the whole business, you will no longer have a claim against the tenant. You could not truthfully make the certifications necessary to get an eviction. In theory, the new landlord could move to substitute in the action but, unless the judge allows this on the day of the hearing, it will be quicker and easier for the new landlord to file another suit.

Question

My parents have there house on the market for 240,000. The market value is 240,000 and the tax assessment value is 312,000. Is it legal if they sold the house to me for 300,000 and gave me the gift of equity of 60,000 (20% down payment)?

Answer

Why do you think that the tax assessment value has to be related to the purchase price? If the market value really is only $240,000.00, they should be appealing the assessed value. If they are seniors, they may have additional options.

Do they want to sell the house? Give it to you? Sell it to you? They should discuss their options with an elder law attorney before doing anything else.

Question

I left my husband 8 months ago. We have a 1 1/2 year old daughter together. (born before the marriage) I left because he is an alcoholic, drug dealer/user (weed/pills) and would not work and provide for his family. Since I left he has not provided anything for her. He has never even once changed a diaper (even when we were together). He has threatened me twice. Wished me dead. Continuously harassed me through texts and calls. I filed for a restraining order but dropped it after mediation and agreed visitations supervised by myself. It was all going fine until he went up to my boyfriends place of employment and threatened him the continued to harasses me through text and calls. Then he moved to Alabama. I live in Missouri. He gave me less than 24 hour notice that he was moving. Due to how unstable he is and his threatening behavior I told him even though he said he will be up once a month that he could not see our daughter. After a couple days of thinking about it I decided he can see her once a month, for 2 hours at McDonalds, supervised by me. I only decided this because when I do file for divorce I don't want him to say I wouldn't let him see her. I'm wondering is this a good course of action or do I have good cause to keep her from him? I truly believe he has anger management issues and other mental issues and if seen by a professional would be required to be on meds. Do I have good cause to have his rights terminated??

Question

I order and paid for one year of yard service from a lawn maintenance company. At the end of the year I called another vendor because the yard did not do well with the first vendor. However the first vendor came back and treated the yard again even though I did not renew the service. They claim they mailed out a notice that they would automatically renew service to all their customers. I don't remember seeing it, but I know I never signed anything. They are now rent messily trying to collect $40. I don't want to pay because I think they never should have assumed I wanted the service renewed. What can I do?

Answer

The answer depends on what you did not tell us - what your ORIGINAL contract with them said. It can't renew unless that contract said that. If it doesn't, file a complaint with the state office of consumer affairs and better business bureau. If it does, you owe them $40.

I have been representing myself in a paternity/child support case. I have mental health issues. I am not representing myself well and I cant afford an attorney. I am in the process of getting social security disability as well as possibly appointing my wife as my legal guardian to deal with all my legal issues. I have a child support hearing this week and I need to postpone it until I can be better represented. How do I postpone this hearing? Can I do this?

Please contact your local county bar association attorney referral program to see if they have a low cost attorney referral program. Notify your ex's attorney of a need to continue the hearing since you are trying to find an attorney to assist you. Send something as soon as possible to the attorney in writing. If the other attorney does not agree to move the date, you may need to file a motion asking for the continuance.

Question

Thank you for reading.

I am a new homeowner in Los Angeles California. The property behind me sits about 15 feet higher then my property. There is (was) a cinder block retaining wall holding my rear neighbors property. These recent heavy rains accumulated in his back yard, and the entire 50+ feet of wall came crashing down into my property, along with some of his land. Im not sure if my home owners insurance will cover it (should find out tomorrow).

A business associate said in no uncertain terms that the property owner who is up higher is responsible for the fix, as their yard is at risk of washing/falling into mine (as it already has started to do). He recommended sending the owner a return receipt letter stating that fact, with a time frame for an acknowledgement, response, and cure period.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Answer

How old are the houses. If less than ten years, I would start with the builder/developer.

Answer

The rules of liability of one neighbor to the other for the consequences of water flowing downhill are discussed pretty thoroughly in a California Supreme Court case called Keys v. Romley, and published at 64 Cal. 396 in 1966. I would suggest using a Google search to locate the text of this decision and review it. There may be later cases more specific to your fact pattern, but Keys would be your starting point. I'd say you have a pretty good case against the neighbor, and if you are within the ten-year statute of limitations and the builder is still around and solvent, an even better case against the builder.

Answer

Attorney Jacobson is correct. It is unethical and unfair to any attorney here as well as your current attorney. No attorney on a public forum who knows nothing about your case can possibly give you a competent opinion on your case. And you going behind your attorney's back looks sneaky as if you lack confidence in him or her.

Further, why are you asking PA attorneys if the case is in Florida?

And you post no details about the case, but the answer is of course you can be sued. This is never the question to ask. You can be sued by any one at any time for any thing including this family again.

The question you should ask is not whether I can be sued but if I am sued, what is the likelihood of success? The answer to that of course is "it depends."

Dismissals of cases are either with or without prejudice. What this is means is that a case dismissed on some technicality without prejudice means the case can be re-filed, either in the same court or a different place. You can be sued generally in any state where jurisdiction over you can be obtained - meaning any state with which you have a connection in some way or own property or live. A dismissal of an action with prejudice means that a case cannot be re-filed.

And just because a case is re-filed does not mean the person suing you will win. You may have other defenses at that point. And if you ultimately prevail and can show the action was frivolous you can then sue the family for malicious abuse of process and recover all the legal fees you spent defending this.

So you need to talk things over with your FL attorney to have him/her explain why dismissal was sought and whether its likely that if the motion is granted whether these people will keep after you or not.

Question

In May 2012 I received a call from my brother who lives in Ohio and has income property in California A Duplex that he rents out He called to ask if I could pay his property taxes on the duplex which were in default and promised to repay me the $3000 in 6 months. I live in California the same town that his duplex is in. I agreed to loan him the money nothing in writing the next day I paid his taxes in full. He has not repaid one cent of loan . Now He has listed the duplex for sale . Do I have any legal recourse to recover the $3,000.00 I still have the receipt from the assessors office and a letter from him acknowledging the loan .

Answer

First, there is a limited number of kinds of contracts that are required to be in writing by the so-called Statute of Frauds. This is not one of them; an oral contract of this kind is enforceable.

Next thought concerns the Statute of Limitations, which for a lawsuit based on an oral contract is two years, and the two years would begin to run when the loan first became overdue. So, you're still OK there, too.

Finally, the letter acknowledging the loan very possibly would take the agreement out of the oral category for purposes of both statutes, where a written conformation of an oral contract may make the loan enforceable just as though it had been in writing in the first place. I assume you'll want to bring any suit in Small Claims Court, and I suggest getting one of the paperback self-help law books discussing California small-claims procedures (check out Nolo Press, for example).

Question

I am a tenant with a short term lease on a 2/2, I invited a roommate not on the lease, I want to mail him a 30 day vacate notice. he lost his temper and punched hole in door, I have no police repost on that tho. my question is in the state of florida is it legal to serve a 30 day notice on a roommate and on day 30 change the locks if they have refused to leave, and have them come with police presence to remove their property?

Answer

If he is truly a tenant, he needs to be given notice and an eviction needs to occur. The notice depends on the how and when he paid rent. Weekly, monthly? A Month to Month tenancy requires 15 days notice to terminate. If you are afraid for your safety you should consider a domestic violence complaint to get a restraining order. Seek some legal guidance.

Question

Hello DUI Experts - Intoxilyzer 8000 Duplicate breath test in Arizona - first test was failed(deficient sample) but the next two consecutive tests wait time is about 10 seconds less than 5 minutes. I believe the wait time should be at least 5 minutes but not grater than 10 minutes. In this case the time gap(wait time) between last Air blank time from the previous test to the first Air blank time to the next test is about 4 minutes 51 seconds, which is about 10 seconds less than 5 minutes. Is it still accurate or can we challenge the test accuracy? we should look into the time gap between Air blanks or Subject Test or Diagnostic Test for two consecutive tests ? Thanks in advance!

http://www.azsos.gov/public_services/Title_13/13-10.htm

Question

What are my rights as legal guardian of my 3 children regarding visitation with their father in Illinois? He refuses to coordinate visitation with me and books flights for the children without first asking if the dates and times work for me. He recently booked a return flight for the children which arrives at midnight and they have school the next day and I have to work. He refuses to change the tickets and is threatening to take me to court if I don't allow visitation. This also happened over the summer when he booked them flights that interfered with our trip to Florida. What are MY rights regarding visitation?

Answer

You several options. Two of them are:

1) buy return tickets, for the kids, that get them back earlier on the school night.

2) Tell their father that if they get back past 10:00 pm on s school night, they won't be flying to see him again without a new Order from the Court.

You have other options, that you should discuss with the attorney that represented you when the present Visitation Order was put in place. It would be impossible to fully explain all of your rights and optima in this format. your If your attorney asks for fees beyond what you're willing to pay, take it as a sign that this really isn't as big of an issue to you, as you may have thought.

I bought an electric mobility chair from Tiger Medical, Inc. of Iverington, NJ on July 23, 2014. Purchase price, $1,199. I paid with my Social Security Debit Card. I was told the chair was shipped the same day. But, it never shipped. After several heated phone calls to their "customer NO Service", I was told the order had been canceled. If it had been shipped, they could not cancel the order. After more heated phone calls and online chats with "CNS" I got an email (August, 1)saying my account had been credited with the purchase price. That was another lie.

You can't sue for bad customer service. Assuming they refunded you, you simply take your business elsewhere. If they didn't, do a chargeback on the card. By the way, it was a very bad idea for you to post your phone number and email in an internet post. Scammers will harvest those and you will likely get extra junk mail and phone solicitations.

Your post does not include one important detail - did you, or did you not, get your money back? If yes, that is the end of the issue. If no, then dispute the charge with the debit card. Your are entitled to get your money back - that is really it. In addition, never post your personal information (name, email, number, etc.) on a forum like this for all to see (and in violation of the rules of this forum). Now anyone searching google can see the info.

Question

I am 21 years old and my mother is schizophrenic and has been living off disability for a while, and over that time she had saved up up to 18,000 dollars with the help of her sister (my aunt) because she is her legal guardian. Before that she had savings of 20,000 dollars from working BEFORE she got sick and my aunt was in charge of all her money and her name was on all the bank accounts. That 20,000 disappeared and my aunt claimed that it was all due to hospital bills. And now that after about ten years or so my mother saved up 18,000 again and it has also disappeared. Keep in mind my aunt was in charge of all things financial. If my mother needed money, my aunt goes to the bank and decides how much and when to give it to her. All that money is gone and she is blaming her soon to be ex husaband, claiming he has stolen all this money even though SHE was always in charge of all my mother's finances and bank accounts. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? SHOULD I GET A LAWYER? SHOULD I CALL THE POLICE? PLEASE HELP...My mother is far too naive and mentally ill to comprehend and she loves and trusts her sister too much to ever believe that it was her who stole it. I've spoken with her soon to be ex husband and he has told me that her name (my aunt's name) is on everything and it's a ridiculous lie that he stole anything and that it was all her. What do I do? What can I do to help my mom? I feel this is incredibly messed up, unfair, illegal, and insane.

Answer

Hire an attorney.

If there is a lien on realestate property due to restitution. what happens to the property when the person owing the restitution dies.

Question

If there is a lien on realestate property due to restitution. what happens to the property when the person owing the restitution dies.

Answer

Are you talking about criminal restitution? If a criminal defendant owes money as part of the restitution and does not pay it becomes a money judgment which is treated like any other money judgment. The judgment would automatically be a lien on any real property owned by the defendant. If the defendant then died, the estate would have to pay off the lien or sell the property, pay off the lien and any other debts, and then give what is left to the heirs/beneficiaries. Heirs usually inherit real property subject to any existing liens. I could see an heir being liable for a mortgage but an heir might not want to pay off existing restitution or judgments and would let this be an estate responsibility unless they really really wanted the real property/

I guess it would depend on the value of the property and how much the lien was for. I suggest that the personal representative of the dead person's estate talk with an experienced probate attorney who practices in the county/state where the dead person's estate is or will be probated.

Any probate attorney or personal representative would, in probating the estate, search the dockets for any judgments/liens because these have to be satisfied by the estate before the heirs get anything.

can my landlord give my new landlord a bad refreence

Question

can my landlord give my new landlord a bad refreence

Answer

If by "bad" you mean the old landlord gives the new landlord negative comments about you as a tenant, yes, of course he/she can do this, so long as the comments are truthful. Further, under Civil Code section 47(c), even a false negative comment would pass the test of legality (i.e., it would not be defamatory), if it were made without malice (as the term "malice" is defined in the context of the law of defamation). So, yes, bad references are lawful as a general rule between old and new landlords.

how do I get a copy of trust or will. my brother passed a way my sister-in-law's attorney will not let us know what is in it.

Question

how do I get a copy of trust or will. my brother passed a way my sister-in-law's attorney will not let us know what is in it.

Answer

If the Will or Trust are submitted to the Probate Court, they are essentially public records. Until a Will is Admitted to probate, it is just a piece of paper. If you honestly believe that you are a beneficiary of your brother's trust or Will, you can file an action to compel the widow to present it to the Court. You might have to request an accounting also.

Few people do this, because they have to pay for it themselves, and Missouri grants surviving spouses great latitude in affecting changes to their deceased spouse's res (stuff they owned at death.) They can opt to take their spousal share, despite what the will says, among other things. Often this is enough to use up most small estates.

This is a simple description of the probate process. If you believe that your brother had an estate plan, and your sister-in-law has opted not to present the will for probate, then you might ask yourself why? Also, why you want to know what the will or trust says. If you believe that you have property coming to you through your brother's will or trust, you should consult directly with a probate practice attorney in your area soon. You have limited amount of time in which to act.

This is a general description of the factors affecting persons wanting to examine the estate plan documents of another. If it is more than mere curiosity for you, you should take steps to protect your interests before it is too late.

Good luck
