Without knowing the details it is impossible to say. The loan might be void if obtained under false pretences. I also suspect that if it is not void, you might be on the hook for the full amount of the loan notwithstanding what the dealer has said to you. Bottom line, if your tummy tells you...

Well, he can at least try to sue you. Based on the above, I'd say you have the stronger position. He bought a used instrument, you advised of the problems with it, coming back for a refund two weeks later is a bit of a stretch. Nope. This will be a small claims matter, if it is anything at...

Are you a lawyer? Did the judge exceed the time limit for rendering a decision? Where is this time limit set out?

I don't know what your local rules of civil procedure allow. In either case you should get a delivery receipt in case service is disputed later. You could also send your documents with an acknowledgment form and ask them to sign, date, and return the form to you.

Yes, send them to her attorney. All communication in this matter should go through the attorney, and your contempt notice is part of this matter.

Whether a stepchild can apply to vary a will depends on the law of your un-named state. Even if you have the right to apply, assuming you're an adult now and provide for yourself, your chances are slim.

Living separate and apart for one year pursuant to a separation agreement is also grounds for divorce in New York. If you don't have or didn't file a written separation agreement, you can file a memorandum of your separation agreement - i.e. that you agreed to live separate and apart - with the...

It is possible to do it yourself. Personally, I wouldn't recommend it.

Without knowing where you are and the details of the pleadings in this case, it is impossible to say, but I suspect the answer is no. "Without prejudice" means there is no determination on the merits, so the lawsuit can be brought again. "With prejudice" means there is determination on the...

Maybe the invoice constituted a new agreement, regardless of what other discussions there had been, and you're entitled to rely on it. That's a position you're entitled to take. On the other hand, maybe you made an agreement, the invoice was in error in not reflecting the agreement, and the...

Are the homeowners saying it was your kid? What's the evidence against him? How big was this net that was allegedly thrown at the injured kid? Were they playing a game that that might have been part of? You might want to contact the parents of the other children there to see what the story...

As I understand it, the order is against your child, not against you. The penalty for breach of it is contempt of court, which means they can be immediately taken into custody and possibly charged with a crime. I don't think there are any direct legal implications on you, but indirectly, it...

Yes, it probably is. Assuming this is a misdemeanour, the statute of limitations is long expired. The statute may have been extended because this involved fraud, but you would still have needed to press criminal charges within a year of discovering the fraud.

What was your agreement with the president? Was the invoice you received stating no charge in error?

Only a judge can determine that for sure. If you think you are not obligated, don't pay him. He'll sue (probably a small claims matter) and the judge will decide. You could argue that he knew he was getting into a venture that involved some risk, or something like that. Based on the limited...

You certainly could be sued. Anybody can sue for anything. Whether he will succeed is anybody's guess. The deal was that the investor would invest $7,000 and one a certain day he would get back $10,000. You call him an "investor", buy I'm not sure why you think that term is significant...

What exactly will the business of the website be? A "help site" is a little vague. Considering there will be payments to be handled, I expect you will be connecting patients with suppliers. You need to be exceedingly careful about this - the fact that medicinal marijuana is legal in Canada...

Well, SOMEbody needs to speak to this in court. If not you, then your lawyer. Really, you should appear in person - without you being there, your chances are not good.

Tell them they failed to close by the closing date,as amended, and the contract is terminated. If there is a deposit and the contract allows you to keep it, keep it. Do you not have a lawyer or real estate agent? You should be asking them these questions.

Sure, as long as you're willing to keep agreeing to these amendments to the closing date.
