Get a lawyer and appeal to the development appeal board or whoever reviews planning decisions. I don't see how they could require you to dedicate a portion of your front yard as a condition of granting a variance for something totally irrelevant taking place in your back yard. In answer to...

No, it doesn't make sense. The house is in both your names. It belongs one-half to you and one-half to the estate of your partner. What exactly is subject to the mortgage - your partner's interest in the house, or the whole house? Who is the executor of your partner's estate? And who...

Your insurance company already dealt with it legally. If you want to make there life miserable, you don't do it through the courts. Maybe your local newspaper would be interested in reporting on the fraudsters (although I suspect the spectre of libel would scare them off) or investigating...

I would talk with him before push comes to shove. You DO have an easement, and you ARE entitled to have a sewer line running through it. How much difference does it make to him exactly where it is? Maybe you trade your old easement for a new (correct) easement and throw some money at him -...

No-one here is expert in UK law. That being said, when does your inheritance vest? If you are of the age of majority, it may be possible to claim your inheritance outright.

If you want to file a class action lawsuit, you should consult with a lawyer. Personally, I can't imagine that whatever they add to cigarettes to make them go out is much worse for you than plain ol' 25+ years of smoking. I suspect proving both causality and damages would be very difficult.

Their assets will get split up according to the laws of intestacy in Maryland. People usually don't die together - they usually die one first, then the other - and the order of death could make a difference. The rule in Maryland is that the surviving spouse gets $7500 plus 1/2 of what's left...

I think you already know the answer - no, you can't. You signed a settlement agreement barring you from any further action against her. You MIGHT have some kind of claim against your attorney if you got bad legal advice. I'm not sure you did - they said it would be expensive, they were right...

How old is your son?

Is this a brand new lawsuit, or the same lawsuit with an amended claim? Depends. Some orders are interim or temporary. As jharris rightly said, if this has already been dealt with by the courts, he has no further claim against you. It is called "res judicata" - the matter has already been...

It is also not tortious interference with contract (as opposed to business relationship) because no contract has been breached. Firing somebody in an at-will employment relationship is not a breach.

A quantum hearing is held when liability is admitted and the amount of damages is the only issue. "Concealment", as it applies to limitations periods, refers to the action of concealing a wrong that was done to you for some period of time. During the period of concealment, the limitations...

In reply to what? Presumably these are your questions, and you should know what you're asking. He means it's not being administered by the court. I'm guessing you're talking about California Probate Code Section 17000. This section doesn't (as I read it) give a court jurisdiction over a...

Unless you can track him down, you're out of luck. You have to be able to serve him in order to sue him.

They can certainly try, and yes, if you don't pay, small claims court is their recourse. They'll need to convince a judge a) that "normal furniture" has a specific meaning that includes the furniture be of a neutral colour, and b) yellow is not a neutral colour. Sounds like a plan. Good luck...

A wills and estates or elder law attorney.

You mean, the first you heard of it other than when you signed the contract. Yes you are, no they do not. If you do not pay and they try to sue you, you might be able to escape by pleading the statute of limitations. But I have my doubts - since you haven't been paying, you have been in...

As per above, anybody can sue anybody for anything. They have the right to sue you. They will not win. I have no idea why the HOA would sue you. That sounds like a very bizarre course of action for them to take, and if they did, they wouldn't have any legal grounds I know of for doing so...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there is very little you can do. You are ultimately responsible for what you deposit into your account. The bank is required by law to make the funds available to you within 5 days of you depositing the cheque, even though it may not have cleared the...

Congratulations! I remember your first post - I would have been surprised at a different result. :)
