The joys of voice to text and/or autocorrect. :D

White space is your friend. So is proofreading. Although, given the content, let's just go with the TL;DR version: "I was SA'd 6 months ago. My property has been vandalized. I'm an emotional mess. I filed a police report. I was able to get an order of protection against the girlfriend of...

If the terms of the lease are violated, then the LL can inform the tenant of the potential consequences. Your mother is apparently the tenant. It sounds like you're not on the lease. The time to get added to the lease as an authorized occupant is before you move in. Your mother violated...

@Rico_2013 's other thread: Parole, Probation, Release - Can I waive my appearance and have my lawyer represent me in court? @Rico_2013 , please don't start any more threads on this legal topic. If you cannot afford a lawyer, the court will appoint one for you. You no longer have a "not that...

@Rico_2013 's other thread: Is it common to ask the lawyer for a discount on the fee if the case is not that complicated?

That's not what happens with an acquittal. Perhaps the initial charge(s) were dropped or reduced to a lesser charge. It sounds like probation. Or a suspended sentence. "Behave well" is defined by the court, not you. There are explicit rules, and you have to follow the rules. You not only...

For renters: Pretty sure if you won't get your security deposit back either, and it will likely affect your ability to get approved for a rental elsewhere. Pretty sure your renter's insurance will deny the claim too.

I suppose whether it is "common" depends on your definition of "common", just as "not that complicated" is a matter of perspective. That said, 1) it doesn't hurt to ask, and 2) if you can't handle the issue without a lawyer, then it's complicated enough. On the other hand, if you have...

Good. But it does sound like you're not amicable (understatement, BTDT burned the t-shirt). So, do keep detailed records about relevant facts regarding visitation. That way you can keep track of patterns and problems.

Um... Your attachments seem to indicate that your order used a standard form. I'm willing to bet that the Spanish version is available, and that if she knew how to use a search engine, she could find it in under 5 minutes. The only language that is not part of the form that needs translating...

It will likely take more than weeks.

A very popular one from back in day when penmanship was taught in schools...

Clearly, his memory has been a blessing.

Visa revoked for overstaying, and he tries to see if he can sneak in from Canada? Yeah, John's son needs to consult an immigration attorney, because they've really botched things up. I get that, from your perception, there were exigent circumstances, but you don't know the whole story. Once...

1) They could choose not to renew their lease and move. Yes, there are costs associated with moving. That's life. It's worth it if the place is truly overpriced, or if they can't afford it. 2) They could review local laws and, if it seems that the LL is gouging them, get help. El Monte |...
