    Appealing a dismissal

    You ignored my prior response - particularly, this question: "Does your employer have some sort of mechanism set up whereby it will hear "appeals" by terminated employees? If so, please describe the mechanism." Please answer the question. As "Tax_Counsel" elaborated: Private, non-union...

    What happens to a trials court decision when an appeal of that decision is reversed by the US Supreme Court?

    Well...almost never does that happen. If it's a state level trial court, a case must go through the state intermediate appellate court (unless it's one of the few states without an intermediate appellate court) and the state's highest court (state supreme court in most states) before it can get...

    Can my landlady really do that?

    So...your landlady actually admitted to you that she killed your dog for the reasons stated? What happened when you called the police about this? If she did it, then it should be obvious that she can do it, but I doubt that's the question you intended to ask, and I would hope it obvious that...

    Appealing a dismissal

    What exactly does that mean? Does your employer have some sort of mechanism set up whereby it will hear "appeals" by terminated employees? If so, please describe the mechanism. Well...which is it? A specified day? Or a day to be determined? It can't be both. Your post doesn't appear to...

    Revocable Trust Created By Spouse During Marriage (California)

    Based on your follow up post #9, it seems like the property was initially the separate property of the spouse whose inherited funds were used to acquire the property. However, in your original post, you mentioned a transfer of title from the trust to both spouses. You also mentioned using...

    Other Criminal Charges & Offenses What Are The Criminal Charges / Offenses Here:

    Hired by whom? For what purpose? What documents? Defend them from what? Defend them in what manner? Is the antecedent of "her" the "suspect" or the "inhabitant"? This sounds a LOT like homework or a law school exam hypothetical. Is it? If not, why are you asking?

    Insurance company trying to frame me for causing accident can i sue?

    I think what you meant to write is that "the insurer for the rear car is calling it dual fault." "Trying to call" implies an inability to do something. Huh? If the claim hasn't been resolved, I doubt very much that the insurer is pursuing subrogation. Defamation? I very much doubt anyone...

    Life Estate - or other method

    I'm not sure exactly what you're asking here, but any tax concerns would not be yours. You might get better responses on the taxes board, but hopefully @Tax_Counsel will respond. The owner should be conferring with an attorney who understands both the real estate issues (which are likely...

    Child support requirements in Illinois

    "Refusing" isn't an appropriate response to a "petition." If he petitions for an increase, you can oppose his petition on the basis that you now make less.

    How do people file for adult guardianship?

    Told by whom? I doubt very much that a competent attorney who practices in this area will require that you have some sort of "physician's report" before taking the case. I completely agree with "adjusterjack."

    Criminal Trials, Hearings How can we postpone

    Hearings and trials and status conferences can be postponed. Your son's lawyer can seek a postponement if he/she, in consultation with your son, believes it appropriate to do so. I don't understand. You posted this at 3:40 p.m. yesterday. I assume that's 3:40 p.m. in my time zone (PDT)...

    Layoff? or a legal-friendly termination workaround?

    Agree. California Labor Code section 201(a) provides that, "If an employer discharges an employee, the wages earned and unpaid at the time of discharge are due and payable immediately." There is a 72-hour exception where an employer "lays off a group of employees by reason of the termination...

    Use of HOA Tennis Courts by Renter

    Sure. A lawyer who has read the HOA rules and the lease can clarify. Rather obviously, no one here has read these documents. That said, it's obvious that you're not a homeowner or a tenant. That doesn't answer the question. Is your student's grandmother's house within the community...

    Vehicle title question.

    Please explain exactly what this means. The lack of a will does not mean there is no executor or administrator. The court will appoint an administrator if someone seeks to probate the estate. "Purchased"? As in you've already bought it? This seems to contradict your prior statement that...

    Want to stop sale

    I don't know. You told us that you "have a contract." You've read the contract; we haven't. Tell us what it says.

    Fidelis not furnishing providers & providers not providing.

    I didn't carefully read that entire long diatribe, but I take it the issue is this: You have dental insurance. However, none of the dentists near you accept your insurance (or, perhaps more accurately, none of the dentists who provide a particular service you need will accept the insurance)...

    selling home without spouse

    Sure. It's called divorce. It's the 21st century. The husband doesn't just get to decide everything and the wife has no say. If you can't mutually agree, then the status quo prevails or you seek a divorce.

    Quiet Enjoyment Unreasonable Landlord Guest Policy?

    I confess that I didn't read though the entirety of your two VERY long posts (which I suspect are much longer than need be given that your only question requires very little background info). No.

    Negligence, Other Injury Breaking of policy led to me getting allergic reaction

    Post hoc ergo propter hoc. A case of what? If you think you can sue Metro Transit and recover damages because someone broke the rule and the bus driver failed to enforce the rule and you thereafter had a migraine, forget it. You can certainly complain to Metro Transit, but the bus drivers...
