jenn, I've been there and done that! Your son is teetering on the border of juvenile vs. adult legal system. I've found the juvenile system to be too lenient and many fall through the cracks. Eventually your son will cross the line into the Adult system once he has a felony conviction...

TexanGerman, Learn from my experience: I met my future wife when she was only 14 and I more than 3 years older. Her parents adored me. She never dated anyone else and we married when she became 19. We had a fairly long and good marriage till she finally filed for divorce. She had never...

Marie, If you used a credit card for your purchase then simply contact the bank that your card was issued from and enter a dispute on the charge. They will contact the vendor and will backcharge the vendor for the purchase if proof can not be provided that they otherwise satisfied your...

The attorney/client privilege, is that not just for the attorney to be held to? Is a 3rd party (non-attorney) also held to this privilege? Also, in further research I found that the "after death" clause only pertains to pending claims and defences. Thus I would assume a "general" letter...

Can a letter between an attorney and his client that is over two years old be placed for public view on the Internet? The client is now deceased.

Check out my answer to the post "Should I fight a ticket for not running a stop sign?" Objecting simply because the officer may or may not have made an error regarding the cost is NOT going to help you. Rely on the facts of whether you did or did not come to a FULL stop at the sign. You...

If you have good reason to refute the ticket, I would do so. Do your research and be fully prepared to show the court why you believe the ticket is not warranted. Chances are the officer may not show up. If he does not, then you automatically win. A couple of years ago I was ticketed...

The following is copied directly from the NYS Department of Labor website: Q: When is the last check due to a terminated employee? A: When employment has been terminated, the employer must pay the wages by the regular payday for the pay period worked. If requested, the employer must mail...

Justine, Don't waste your time with contacting PayPal. Do as robinhood originally suggested. Contact the bank that issued your VISA debit card. Follow their procedure for disputing a charge.

I have already done EVERYTHING you have suggested. On Feb. 1st I advised them to call me to make arrangements. I already had an inventory list and a release letter already drawn up. I never heard another word from anyone till this past Wednesday. Two Board members called. The first made...

Army Judge, Does that mean I can simply leave $1,200 worth of property in their personal driveway and walk off? Do I have any responsibility as to it's safe and secure turn over? If they are not smart enough to come pick up the stuff I don't intend to continue wasting my time and effort. I'd...

It has now been three weeks. They had set an appointment with me this evening to pick up the items, yet never showed up! What are my legal options? I can't sell the stuff, I can't just set it out on the street. I just want the stuff gone. I couldn't make sense of the abandonment laws as...

Mightymoose, I would disagree. This is a verbal contract and they probably used cash not checks. By Chrisse33's own word's he forgave $200 of the original $1,200 loan. This is now documented within the post of this website. There were no contingencies placed upon this loan reduction. If...

The police won't help you get your money back. You would have to sue. To sue for $414 is not feasible. You would have to pay a filing fee, etc. and even if you won a judgement it does NOT guarantee you would be reimbursed. It would be up to you to enforce and collect on the judgement. Not...

How did you pay? PayPal or credit card? Contact either and explain your situation that the merchandise was damaged, returned, and the vendor won't refund or talk to you. PayPal or your credit card company will contact the vendor and if not satisfied with their response will issue you a credit...

Unless this was an investment home the loss is not deductible. Only capital gains are reportable and not a loss on your homestead. You might have a deduction claim by claiming vandalism damages. You could potentially claim the loss of value to the mobile home due to the vandalism and thus the...

Lets see if I understand this correctly. You sold your mobile home in a private sale. The new owner abandoned the home. The mobile home's title was never transferred to the new owner because it has a lien attached to it. Apparently, you are not aware of a lien. Do you recall ever being...

Granted, I'm not an attorney either and I'm looking at it from the angle of my profession as an accountant.

Patricia, On what legal basis would the employee be obligated to repay? If the employer sued what would he tell the judge? The employee did not ASK for the employer to pay for the affiliation dues. Thus I would see the judge asking, "why did you (the employer) pay for the dues?" The only...

The above was the original question. The owner has no right to deduct this from her vacation pay and it would be illegal if he tried without her permission. Her recourse is to either reimburse the owner or not. My belief is that she has NO legal obligation to reimburse the owner. The benefit...
