    Illegal interview question(s)?

    I agree. However, having litigated a few of these cases, the big hurdle is being able to survive a motion for summary judgment. For the OP's benefit, in this context, a motion for summary judgment would argue that, based on the evidence, the only reasonable verdict would be for the defendant...

    Is the Estate account closed with the courts?

    You're going to need to confer with an Alabama probate attorney about this. I don't believe anyone from Alabama follows these boards on a regular basis.

    Can not being served properly be grounds for dismissing a case?

    Please elaborate. Start by telling us how you know the case exists if you were never served. Does your use of the word "properly" mean you actually were served but that there were some defect in the service? If so, please explain. Maybe. Depends on the relevant facts. Obviously, if you...

    Court has had my address incorrect for a long while now, causing me to not receive notices. Can I backdate the Notice of Change of Address form?

    You posted on a board that relates to "Small Claims & Municipal Court." California hasn't had municipal courts for more than a quarter century, so I assume you're in a small claims court in California. Correct? Are you the plaintiff or the defendant? What notices did you not receive? What...

    RESPONSIBILITY OF AN ESTATE WITH NO NAMED EXECUTOR

    I didn't say anything about receiving something from the estate. You did "receiv[e] a summons from the prosecutors office for past due taxes," right?

    RESPONSIBILITY OF AN ESTATE WITH NO NAMED EXECUTOR

    I suggest you confer again with that friend about what you received.

    What's the process that a state bar goes through in investigating egregious fees charged by an attorney?

    In the abstract, yes, the State Bar has that power. The relative timing of the two events makes no difference. In the abstract, virtually anything is possible. Obviously, no one here will have any insight into what might motivate your former attorney. There isn't much of anything anyone...

    Fraud, Embezzlement, Bad Checks Is This Criminal - Frustrating the IRS?

    Are you A? I'm guessing not, so what is your connection to A and/or B or this situation? Assuming the affidavit was made under penalty of perjury and filed in a state court, one could reasonably assume that A committed the crime of perjury under the applicable state law. Reported by whom...

    Storage unit fire

    When was "recently"? A sign posted by whom? The facility owner? The fire department? No access until when? If the sign didn't say anything about that, did you call the facility and explain your urgent need for access and inquire? If not, why not? If so, what were you told? No.

    RESPONSIBILITY OF AN ESTATE WITH NO NAMED EXECUTOR

    Advised by whom? If you're not on title or on the loan, never took possession, and never administered the estate, you shouldn't have any liability. You might place a call to the plaintiff's attorney and ask why you've been named despite not being on title, etc. Depending on the outcome of...

    Adding someone (non-spouse) to a home title

    Maybe. That assume he adds you to the title in a manner that results in title passing to you "automatically" when he dies, which he apparently doesn't know how to do. I assume he's also not aware that there are other methods of avoiding probate that might be better for him and/or you. Also...

    What does a employer/garneshee mean by exercising their right to recoupment?

    Your "wages" aren't being garnished. What's being garnished is your receivable from the employer to you, as the IC. Before I try to address the rest of your post, please explain why the garnishment exists. Is it because you got sued and have a judgment against you? Is it in connection with...

    Other Criminal Charges & Offenses clarification of the provision written in order

    You don't seriously expect anyone to try and make sense of this gigantic block of words with no capitalization and almost no punctuation, do you? The prior three posts aren't much better.
