    Bank cashed check w/stop payment

    Maggie, do you really think anyone on a legal forum is going to give you legal advice to keep money that does not belong to you? I was trying to be somewhat polite and have tongue in cheek humor with you, yet apparently you just don't get it.

    PDO (Paid Days Off) extra tax

    You can request the payroll department to not tax or to tax differently the PDO portion. This would be no different than receiving a bonus. You would need to determine how this lump sum payment will affect your overall annual taxes. Make your determination of how you want the PDO taxed...

    Accounts Recievable

    I see nothing illegal about this, simply be certain to keep detailed records. The payments which are made payable to you can be construed as YOUR revenue. The 90% payout would therefor be YOUR expense. Your net profit is thus the 10% commission. You are essentially self-employed.

    I'll give two to one odds that she still cashes the check! :D

    Bank cashed check w/stop payment

    Such a sorrowful statement! No banks do NOT have insurance for such things. They are a for profit business just like any other business. You are "stealing" from the bank by knowingly cashing the check which does indeed create an unlawful gain for you. It is because of this type of...

    Bank cashed check w/stop payment

    That is not the issue. Do you wish to be morally responsible or not? The "responsible" thing would be to return the payment to the bank. Just don't expect an overwhelming "Thank you". :>)

    helping a friend

    If the owner knew of a major problem within the bathroom, perhaps a plumbing leak, and did not take the proper steps to fix it then there very well may be a civil issue. This would more definitely be the case if the owner intentionally made cosmetic repairs to cover up the real damage. The...

    PDO (Paid Days Off) extra tax

    That is definitely a new one I've never heard of. That would be similar to penalizing an employee for taking a cash payout of their accrued vacation time upon termination of their employment. More than likely this is a misinterpretation. The withholding tax may be higher due to the 40 hours...

    helping a friend

    Difficult to say on the limited info. How extensive was the mold damage? Is the repair cost significant that the buyer would not have bought the house if he was aware of it? Was this known by the owner and intentionally withheld from the buyer? Id the buyer do a walk-thru inspection prior to...

    landlord signing a new lease during my lease term

    Had you expressed a desire to move early and break your lease? Why else would the landlord sign a new lease prior to the expiration of your present lease? He cannot force you out prior to your lease as long as your rent is up to date and there are no other adverse issues. Even if there...

    Salaried employee

    Pilgrim, It is not a case of being Salary or Hourly. It has to do with being exempt or not exempt. A non-exempt salaried person may be entitled to overtime pay. To clarify the reason for Green Hornet's question is that one test of exempt or non- exempt per the FLSA is: If a salaried...

    Personal Bankruptcy Legitimate online bankruptcy?

    All these companies do is supply you with the forms. You still must file them with the Court yourself. Makes better sense to me to use a bankruptsy attorney for this life changing episode.

    Corporate Law Do I have grounds to sue?

    Therefor you are a victim of a crime. If someone representing themsleves as you accepts and signs for the delievery, the deliverery person has done no wrong. This is common practice. This is no different that a delivery being left at your doorstep when you are not home and then someone...

    Laptop damage

    No one intentionally harmed the laptop, and I seriously doubt tossing a stuffed animal in a bedroom could be considered "negligent". If anyone was to be "more" responsible for the damage, it would be the owner himself. He allowed the item to be left out in the open in an area where it...

    HOA fees and Bankruptcy

    Is your condo near foreclosure? The HOA will most likely attach a lien to the home for unpaid dues. Either the mortgage company or the short sale buyer will end up paying if you don't. The HOA could also file for a judgment and garnish you wages, yet in my opinion this is less likely. As...

    I need advise on car extended warranty

    Your post is unclear as to what specific steps you have already taken. Was your written cancellation request received by them? Why did you wait 3 months to follow-up? Have you physically gone to the dealership and requested to speak to management? I would suggest continued direct...

    Corporate Law Do I have grounds to sue?

    No. The law only allows for making you "whole" again. One does not sue to make a profit. This sounds no more than a common delivery error. Did you have insurance on the package? What does the delivery company say about their responsibility?
