Since you didn't use the sarcasm font... Obtaining patent rights for an invention requires affirmative action beyond the act of invention, so yes, you can patent an invention.

You're right; we have. But you don't seen to get it. Let's see what the definition is at the link YOU provided: "to secure a copyright on" That's utterly meaningless. What act can one take "to secure a copyright on" something. Your online dictionary offers an example: "He has copyrighted...

The scope of copyright includes pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works, which would include something like a Halloween mask. A basic, lifelike animal mask is unlikely to have sufficient originality to be protected, but it's impossible to say in the abstract. Also, you should be aware that...

Is the sewer easement a matter of public record? Prior to the purchase, did you obtain a preliminary title report and then, at the time of purchase, obtain a title policy? If so, did the title report and policy mention the easement? What documents? What DOES the notice say? And are you...

Note to the OP: It'll cost you at least $2,700 to do this, and you won't be able to recover your fees. You'd be better off paying off the loan yourself.

A divorce is between you and your spouse. It has nothing to do with obligations you owe to third-parties. That said, subject to the terms of the written loan agreement, you probably can give written notice to prevent any future increases (especially if you're only a co-signer and not a joint...

Here's what I think this means: At some point in the past, you (or an LLC that you own and/or control) sold a piece of real property to someone. Part of the consideration for the sale was that the buyer executed a promissory note (containing the terms indicated), which is supported by a...

A protective order issued on behalf of your girlfriend? Someone else? And why? By whom? Because...?? Do they spend time at your house? If so, how much time? I am confident there are dozens of things you can do. Do you have a problem with CPS doing a "home visit" at your residence...

Calling it a "fee" or a "tax" or a "whatchamacallit" doesn't make even the tiniest difference. That's the exact opposite of arbitrary.

You would not be terminated "for complying with [your wife's] custody agreement." You would be terminated for failing to comply with your employer's directives regarding in-office versus remote work. You are likely an at-will employee, which means you are free to quit at any time and for any...

Seems like there's a heck of a lot of information meant to go where the ellipses are that might make this post make some sense. It sounds like this has something to do with a car repair situation...? Huh? None of this has any legal relevance. You didn't purchase the vehicle from the...

No one here will be familiar with your city's local ordinances (and, as far as I know, no one who posts here regularly is in OK), but this is likely legal. Municipalities are generally entitled to levy taxes. At the next election, vote out the current council members who voted to do this and...

Any alleged misconduct by a Louisiana attorney can be reported to the Office of Disciplinary Counsel.

I can find no evidence (using a google search) of such a law in Oregon. Why do you believe such a law might exist? OK...so? Are you a woman, and did you have sex with this man? If so, did you become pregnant as a result? I note that you were already asked these questions but ignored them...

There is an option for a no-fault divorce without mutual consent. You have to live separate and apart (which can actually happen under the same roof). I suggest you review this: PALawHELP.org - Your Online Guide to Legal Information and Legal Services in Pennsylvania And contact a local...

This is way to vague a question for any answer other than "maybe." Piling? What does "the intent of the legislature" have to do with "following . . . sections of a trust"? Facts matter and you provided ZERO facts. What does "this" refer to? EDIT (now that this has been moved): If you...

P.S. It's not clear from the facts you've posted whether your aunts and uncles have any legal rights regarding the home. Does one (or more) of them have a power of attorney or a court-ordered conservatorship?

There's a lot of missing information: 1. Was your grandfather's estate ever probated? If so, who was the personal representative? 2. What is the situation with respect to the father(s) of your children? Married? Living together? Child support? 3. Is your parent who is the child of your...

No. However, she MIGHT (depending on facts not provided) be able to receive her own social security old-age benefit based on his work history. One would need to read the pension plan to answer this. Better than what? If you're asking whether the two of you getting married (as opposed to...

If she has access to her email and a printer and a means to ship documents, yes. This way, the POA isn't an issue at all.
