So, since none of us are mind readers please clarify: 1) By "adu" do you mean "Accessory Dwelling Unit", the more formal term for an in-law apartment? 2) What do you mean by "paying for an adu that never happened, nothing was done"? Are you saying that your aunt paid someone to add an...

I didn't misread it, and still came to the conclusion that the accident was not caused by LL's negligence. One could perhaps make a more reasonable argument if the accident happened while walking forward on a sidewalk, but it generally has to be more egregious than just uneven pavers or a patch...

Breathe. Now breathe again. There are two possibilities: 1) Your rent has been paid in full, or 2) Your rent has not been in full. It sounds like you have been receiving some form of housing assistance. https://www.illinoishousinghelp.org/ I don't know if the issue if you not paying your...

Guess you should stick to walking forwards. And I am saying this as someone who has balance issues. Not legally relevant. Seriously. If you doubt us strangers on the internet, then get an initial consult with a lawyer. Or several lawyers. If any of them are willing to take on your case on a...

Yes. But if a brick wall runs into your stationary car, it is not a collision, at least not for insurance purposes. https://whdh.com/news/watch-shocking-video-shows-brookline-building-collapse/

Did the owner of the private property have you towed? What was the reason stated for the tow? e.g. blocking the sidewalk, fire zone, handicapped parking. Is your issue that you were towed, or is it that you have a problem with who towed you?

That's a stupid reason not to seek a restraining order.

Document the negative interactions. Date, time, what happened. Do not engage. Report instances of assault and battery to police. Petition for a civil harassment restraining order if you have not already. This will help in whatever civil claims action you pursue in the future.

So, your brother is deceased, and you aren't being allowed access to bank statements prior to his death, and he didn't save/print out the statements before dying?

If you do not like the addendum the buyer wants to add, you don't have to agree to it. It is not illegal for the buyer to request an addendum. It is not illegal for the seller to reject the addendum. If the buyer has not paid as agreed upon in the written contract, then the buyer is in breach...

Is your other thread referring to the same property? Oh, you've been busy - transfer of ownership You have someone interested paying cash for your property. Not a mortgage. They don't want to pay cash until they're sure that they'll actually get what they are paying for.

Maybe the buyer suddenly had the epiphany that there was nothing in writing guaranteeing that they would get to use the house any time soon. It would be kind of redicilous [sic] to buy a property, pay a mortgage, and not be able to actually move in. That's your problem. The buyer is having...

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...
