    Removing defamatory content from archive dot org

    The reason they haven't acted on your request is that there is no copyright infringement. You authored the posts and there is no infringer but you, so to speak.

    Graduation Handshake

    You are probably too young to have learned that in life, we learn to pick our battles. When you want to make a point and it seems like a good idea, stop and think about what you will really accomplish and what the ramifications might be. Then decide if it would be worth it. The cost benefit...

    Electrical Pad Vault Relocation Responsibility?

    The answers probably can be found on the utility's website under the tariffs. The utility owns the transformer. The electric company that supplies us in NJ will move their lines without charge if they need to moved for a good reason. My neighbor was installing a pool and the power lines...

    Electrical Pad Vault Relocation Responsibility?

    If at the time you bought your lot the pad was say in the middle of the lot, and you still bought it, it would be your responsibility to pay to have it moved.

    Dissolving an incorporated HOA that owns a private road

    Ron, I didn't make up the doctrine of an implied easement by recorded plat. All you have to do is search the case law in every state and you will find that it is a settled doctrine. As for the plat telling everything; we are discussing a single road up through a subdivision with lots on both...

    Dissolving an incorporated HOA that owns a private road

    If you want to know about the easements that may exist across the properties, you look at the recorded subdivision plat. That would be in the county registrar's office. If the plat shows the road and the front lot lines are to the center line of the road (as you indicated) the easements for the...

    Suing UPS in Small Claims Court

    I don't know how UPS's terms of service are now but I dug out my file from 9/10/2009 when I shipped 3 wooden crates of woodwork from NJ to FL using UPS. I have the bills and all the paperwork. Each crate was written up for shipment separately. Each has a declared value of between $1,800.00...

    Suing UPS in Small Claims Court

    That is not the way it works with UPS. Any amount that you insure for over $100 is automatically underwritten by a third party insurer. It is this third party insurer that insulates UPS from claims and they will automatically deny the claim no matter what it is. Their first line of defense is...

    Bad Flooring Installation

    A statement like that usually refers to if the contractor has to sue you for payment. If you sue the contractor for breach of the contract or the workmanship warranty then he pays for his lawyer. But if you loose, you may have to pay for his if the suit was frivolous. In any event, there must...

    Undisclosed Irrigation Easement

    I agree that merger would preclude the farmer granting himself an easement on his own land but he could have reserved one on the transfer of the land. Mistakes do happen when drafting new deeds and easements or reservations are left out. I didn't say that the seller perfected an easement...

    Undisclosed Irrigation Easement

    Just because you don't have any written express description of an easement doesn't mean that one was not created by the use when the land was under unified ownership and before it was subdivided and sold to you. Such an easement would be perfected by a court ruling or by agreement of both the...

    What NOT to put in Will

    One common mistake is when someone bequeaths a retirement account, a bank account, or an insurance policy etc. and forgets that it already has a named beneficiary. And if you intend to disinherit someone, you should leave them a dollar to show that they were taken into consideration.

    LLC for a Content Creator

    You are under a misconception that Fair Use is just a defense to be used if being sued for infringement. Fair Use is a right authorized by law in the DMCA. In March of 2016, the United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit said so. The Court also stated that any copyright holder that files...

    LLC for a Content Creator

    There aren't millions of videos posted on YouTube that violate copyright law. If you have some data to show that I would be interested in seeing it. The reason I say that is because YT has a very very strict DMCA take down policy and together with all the copyright firms that run copyright...

    LLC for a Content Creator

    If you are using the clip for the purpose of criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research, the Fair Use doctrine permits a use of a copyrighted work without the copyright owner's permission. There are literally hundreds of videos posted each day on YouTube that do...

    My wife and I have both agreed to an agreed divorce. We have no children, assets. But I own a busine

    I find nothing that would prevent OP from filing for an agreed divorce. The fact that he or his wife owns a business does not preclude the filing. He answers yes to the question (do you or your spouse own a business). If the court doesn't like how they agree to handle the equitable...

    My wife and I have both agreed to an agreed divorce. We have no children, assets. But I own a busine

    It may be a good idea to hire an attorney and pay the fee but it is not required. The Tennessee statute provides for amending the settlement agreement at the hearing if both parties are present. So if there is some inequity in the agreement that the court wants changed it can be done right...
