    Landlord failing to repair plumbing issue

    If you are not allowed into your apartment because of the work you might talk with management about paying prorated rent... Unless they have already compensated you in some way for that. Although they haven't been successful it seems they have been fairly attentive to the problem. Talk with...

    Drug Crimes, Substance Abuse Sons first offense drug paraphernalia and residue possession controlled substance. Do we need a lawy

    Did you mean THC? If so, was this JUST marijuana? If so, marijuana is a totally different classification from other illegal drugs (it isn't nearly as bad). If it was a small quantity there are many ways good legal counsel can help to minimize the damage or even avoid conviction.

    Someone made up that I own them

    Ignore her. If she does take it to small claims it will be her burden to prove you owe her and to produce some sort of agreement. If you never said you would pay then she should not be able to produce any supporting evidence.

    Puppy sale contract

    Can you prove they knew at the time of the sale? You may be fortunate they offered a refund. I agree that your remedy is to return the dog. However, if the dog has a heart defect the breeder might not be interested in the dog going forward. Cease contact and just disappear from the breeder's...

    Jail Charges

    That seems like a pretty harsh consequence for a simple minor in possession offense, even with probation violations. It seems there may be something missing here.

    Landlord wants me to pay full month rent for a prorated a 10 days of November.

    You also have the right to stay in that room. If someone else shows up to move in they would have to find somewhere else to go. You are helping things go smoother by getting out early... But you certainly don't have to.

    Does this rental agreement seem odd to anyone?

    If some sucker were to agree to this it is reasonable to assume that person would just scamper away after getting fleeced. There certainly are lots of suckers out there who are hard up for a place to live and eager to give away their cash.

    You are welcome. Hopefully you and others will become more aware and less prone to the unnecessary rude comments you make and it will not be necessary to point them out to you and to apologize to others on your behalf.

    Overcharged for Maintence Issue

    You did not simply point it out. You made a rude statement. You could have stated it as simply as you just did without the attitude attached.

    If anyone should, it is you. Nobody wants to see rude responses. Please be more courteous or simply choose to not reply if you have nothing helpful to add. Your comment in this thread serves no practical purpose.

    Overcharged for Maintence Issue

    Be careful offering partial payment as it could be construed as acknowledging you owe the rest. If you offer s partial payment clearly indicate it is being offered as payment in full. Review your lease and check with Section 8 before you pay anything, because you may not have to pay a penny.

    Overcharged for Maintence Issue

    Volunteers or not, some members have a habit of offering rude responses that do nothing to help resolve an issue and are totally unnecessary, such as the one offered above. Such comments likely dissuade people from returning here or recommending its use to others.

    Overcharged for Maintence Issue

    Keep paying your rent on time and eviction likely won't be an issue. The landlord will have to sue you in civil court and prove you owe the amount. You don't have to pay it until a judge orders you to do so. Chances are that the two of you will come to an agreement for less before it gets that...

    Justice System, Police, Courts Recent Change in Arrest Activity

    As above, older arrestees tend to be heroin or meth arrests. I haven't noticed a spike though. It would be interesting to look into the socioeconomic characteristics if you do have a clear trend.

    Is there a law where there has to be a solid white line in a "right lane must turn right" lane?

    Required signage and other markings surely varies state to state. You can contact a traffic engineer to get answers to your local question about required markings. If the road was not marked as required you very well could get your citation dismissed.

    Repairs, Maintenance Does the landlord own my A/C Units?

    It is your property. Do what you want with it. Leave the landlords property in the same condition as you obtained it. If you take something the landlord thinks you should not have he will have to convince a court he is entitled to it.

    Illegal newspaper distribution

    I get similar newspapers. They, as well as most of the mail I retrieve from my mailbox, go straight in the trash without reading.
