    Estate of Deceased Mother & Her Lawsuit

    You need to contact the lawyer that she used and find out (if you can) what the terms were with that lawyer. He/She may have had something setup where they can go after the estate. You would not be liable for anything personally - any money that is determined to be owed would come from your...

    Temporary Restraining Order Violation

    Obviously he should have an attorney. Ask them, and they will be able to tell you if this can be done, and how to go about it. One thing I will tell you though, is get away from this guy. This is so typical of the pattern of abuse. He abuses you, gets in trouble, then comes back "Oh, I'm...

    Generally not. This would all be up to the prosecution.

    Yes, YOUR landlord was comitting fraud. You need to file a lawsuit. These sorts of things have been happening a lot especially in Florida, but they noramlly are with houses. The house will get forclosed on by the bank, and the tennant is now SOL and has to move out. But the landlord cannot...

    K Visa Is marrying Enough???

    Travel between the US and Canada is rather simple. Just get a passport and you are good. Right now you don't need it for land crossing, but I take it you are in Hawaii, so air travel is in your future, and thus, you need the passport now. You would not need a visa unless you were staying...

    Am I obliged to pay for this?

    Often times online just by cliking on I Agree, then you are entering into a contract with the other party. Whether or not you can use the doctors note as a way out depends on the contract. However, if this company is in Argentina, then they might have a hard time suing you in the US, however...

    Where do I stand legally?

    This would be a lible suit (slander is spoken word, lible is written.) Whether or not she can actually even sue in the first place depends on a couple things. First, she would have to show that the things you said were factaully incorrect, and not just opinion. So for example if you said...

    Drug Crimes, Substance Abuse Friend supplied drugs to another friend who OD'd and died

    It's hard to say. He's already in deep crap as this will certainly cause a violation of probation. I don't know if he can be charged with manslaughter because the person who took the drugs did so willingly and they don't normally convict drug dealers of such. However, that still does not rule...

    If you have a Florida driver's license, then forget aobut the class. You driving record is iin Florida. If you get a ticket in Florida, they will let you take the driver improvment class to avoid points on your lisence, but under Florida law, if the ticket is in another state, you are not...

    Premises Liability Injured commiting a crime question

    That's still not what I'm talking about. OK, someone tries to break into your home, when you are not home, and they injur themselves without any booby traping on your part (like the guy falling through the skylight) can they sue?

    Premises Liability Injured commiting a crime question

    Here's what I'm talking about. There was a case in my area a few years ago where a guy broke into a convenience store after hours by climbing in through a roof vent, but he fell and landed on a shelf, injuring himself. Or, if someone breaks into my home and gets injured. Well, I know that...

    Are all used products sold as is unless specified with warranty?

    No, and in fact you may be able to contact the police. I would think that this would fall under theft.

    Divorced and can't remorgage PLEASE HELP!

    When you go to court, you need to take something from the lender stating that they will not lend to you because your credit is shot. And explain to the judge what the situation is. You have tried, but they won't loan you the money. It might help too if you have a copy of your credit report...

    Premises Liability Injured commiting a crime question

    This is one I've heard people say, but never actually heard of it happening. If someone breaks into a home or business, and they are injured, would they ever be able to sue the owner, or would it get thrown out because they were injured in the commision of a crime?

    Consumer Law, Warranties Contract paper missing!

    Might be a good idea to go ahead an call the police. You are never going to see her again, or your money. Aside from that, what good is the IOU anyway? She has the appliances. How do you know that any of the info she gave you (address, etc) is any good in the first place? She could have...

    Subtenant's rights under illegal sublease?

    In your first post you didn't mention anything about having something in writing from the master-tenant. If you had some sort of lease agreement, then you would have basis to get your money back. Just having checks written is not enough. You need to have something showing that you did in fact...

    Shill Bidding on eBay: A Case Study

    I would say it's something that eBay needs to address. And their computers could easily do most of the dirty work for them. They already show if a particular bidder has bid with that seller, and how many times. In my case, I do antique radios as a hobby, and sometimes buy radios or...

    ~injured in auto accident

    I would contact another attorney that has the free consultation and see what they say. With going to court, the quesition is what medical records do you have to show your injury? That's going to be a big part of this.

    Hurtful words...

    I second the get over it route. Let's say you did go to court. You would need to have a witness that heard the remark. Aside from that, what real damage was done? Sorry, but ths is part of the problem these days is people want to sue over nothing. If you want to sue for everytime...
