Yes. You can write him a cordial letter and explain you are not the T. Barnes he is looking for.

Could you clarify that please? What arrangement did you make, and with whom? Why did the agency not honour it? You don't have that many options. I take it you don't dispute the debt. You can either continue talking to the credit agency to make acceptable payment arrangements, or you can...

You can sue him in small claims court, but you'll need to find him first. Then you'll need to convince the judge that he owes you the money, and it will be your word against his. If you can produce copies of the cheques he cashed, that will be in your favour. Then you'll need to collect...

Gotcha. I was a bit confused - I thought the executor was selling his own business. It might be true that the estate can't be settled until the business is sold. If the executor distributes some of the bequests early, and doesn't have enough funds later on to pay some creditors or...

Whether you can go in hock to your lawyer for your legal fees and secure it with your interest in the house, and whether your lawyer will be able to foreclose on your wife, are two different things. Your current mortgage might have a term forbidding subsequent encumbrances. If not, and if your...

The executor has to keep accounts of the estate, and if you ask to see them, the executor has to show them to you. Have you asked? Sounds like this is going to get messy. I'd look into whether the will has passed probate. Have any of your fellow beneficiaries seen a nickel from the estate...

Where is this taking place?

I'm talking about your plan to go after eBay. I'm quite sure that eBay scammers misrepresent all sorts of things. One of the reasons you should use your credit card for eBay purchases. Going back to your original post, and my original reply, I still don't see what kind of estoppel argument...

The vehicle is an asset; that's why they bought it and sold it to the new buyer. Whether they breached your contract in doing so depends on whether they were bound by the contract, and that is an open question. You might want to verify with whatever business registry you have in your...

I think I'm missing something here. What do you think eBay is estopped from doing, and why are they so estopped? And why do you need this to fall under equitable jurisdiction? As I understand equitable estoppel (granted, it's been a while, so I'm relying on Wikipedia) equitable estoppel...

Your first post sounds like you/your son want to sue the friend for supplying alcohol, causing the injury to your son. Your second post sounds like you/your son want to defend the friend's lawsuit against your son on the basis of contributory negligence. You can do both. If your son is...

Where does this hypothetically happen, and how is the burglar hypothetically injured? Source: http://www.legalzoom.com/legal-articles/top-ten-frivolous-lawsuits.html That's a jury case, so sadly the legal principles by which the owner was found liable are not enunciated.

Was the first lien ever discharged? If not, tell them to discharge it. You can be threatened again with a new lien, but the old one has been paid out.

Maybe I'm missing something here. If you had a contract for sale, and the prospective purchaser hasn't completed, why not just terminate the contract?

She can continue pursuing her divorce action, possibly now with a new attorney. Probably now on the basis of unjust enrichment. Alternatively, just because the mortgage is in her name doesn't mean she has to pay it. She can default on the loan. (Yes, her credit will be shot.) The bank...

You mean you were both named as defendants? Why didn't your husband apply to be released from the lawsuit, or at least defend on the basis that he had nothing to do with the restaurant? If you were both defendants, and you both lost, the other party is well within its rights to garnish your...

You're not wasting anyone's time yet. I don't know whether you should pursue it; malpractice suits are difficult to win and costly to litigate. I don't know whether someone should pay for your child's suffering - maybe he would have suffered regardless of when he was diagnosed. All I know is...

Doesn't matter whether the agreement between the owners is written or not; if you all agree no fires, you all agree. Now do something about it. The officer does not make the law, he enforces the law. I repeat my above advice: ask the officer to cite this alleged law allowing the resident to...

All you really need is for you to agree how she can be served (by regular mail, by personally giving it to her, by carrier pigeon), and for her to sign an Acknowledgment of Service when she is served and give that back to you. http://www.lsnjlaw.org/english/family/divorce/divorcenj/divch2/...
