I don't entirely understand #1. In your original post, you told us that the seller sold the truck to someone else (or did I mis-read that?). In any event, option #3 is really: EITHER forget about the money or sue the dealer. Unfortunately, it appears that the most you can sue for in small...

His ex-wife may have accused him. However, if he's been charged with a crime, it was by the district attorney, not his ex. Was this cash bail? Or was a $100k bond posted (which would have a ~$10k premium)? First of all, "we"? Have you also been charged? Second, while it really does no...

That's not true. However, by putting your cousin as a "joint tenant" on the account, you would be giving her the money in the account. Your cousin would have the legal right to walk into the bank and withdraw 100% of the money at any time. Additionally, any creditor who has a judgment against...

Under the circumstances described, what would be the point of you giving the deposit if it were refundable? You wrote that you gave the deposit in exchange for the seller's agreement to "hold" the vehicle (i.e., an agreement not to sell it to someone else). If the deposit were refundable, then...

I agree. However, having litigated a few of these cases, the big hurdle is being able to survive a motion for summary judgment. For the OP's benefit, in this context, a motion for summary judgment would argue that, based on the evidence, the only reasonable verdict would be for the defendant...

You're going to need to confer with an Alabama probate attorney about this. I don't believe anyone from Alabama follows these boards on a regular basis.

Please elaborate. Start by telling us how you know the case exists if you were never served. Does your use of the word "properly" mean you actually were served but that there were some defect in the service? If so, please explain. Maybe. Depends on the relevant facts. Obviously, if you...

OK...then seek out another attorney.

You posted on a board that relates to "Small Claims & Municipal Court." California hasn't had municipal courts for more than a quarter century, so I assume you're in a small claims court in California. Correct? Are you the plaintiff or the defendant? What notices did you not receive? What...

I didn't say anything about receiving something from the estate. You did "receiv[e] a summons from the prosecutors office for past due taxes," right?

I suggest you confer again with that friend about what you received.

In the abstract, yes, the State Bar has that power. The relative timing of the two events makes no difference. In the abstract, virtually anything is possible. Obviously, no one here will have any insight into what might motivate your former attorney. There isn't much of anything anyone...

Are you A? I'm guessing not, so what is your connection to A and/or B or this situation? Assuming the affidavit was made under penalty of perjury and filed in a state court, one could reasonably assume that A committed the crime of perjury under the applicable state law. Reported by whom...

When was "recently"? A sign posted by whom? The facility owner? The fire department? No access until when? If the sign didn't say anything about that, did you call the facility and explain your urgent need for access and inquire? If not, why not? If so, what were you told? No.

Advised by whom? If you're not on title or on the loan, never took possession, and never administered the estate, you shouldn't have any liability. You might place a call to the plaintiff's attorney and ask why you've been named despite not being on title, etc. Depending on the outcome of...

Maybe. That assume he adds you to the title in a manner that results in title passing to you "automatically" when he dies, which he apparently doesn't know how to do. I assume he's also not aware that there are other methods of avoiding probate that might be better for him and/or you. Also...

Your "wages" aren't being garnished. What's being garnished is your receivable from the employer to you, as the IC. Before I try to address the rest of your post, please explain why the garnishment exists. Is it because you got sued and have a judgment against you? Is it in connection with...

You don't seriously expect anyone to try and make sense of this gigantic block of words with no capitalization and almost no punctuation, do you? The prior three posts aren't much better.

It's hard to address these questions in the abstract. When I was trustee for my sister's trust many years ago, I had an attorney representing me, and I hired a CPA to assist with filing tax returns for both the estate and the trust. I encourage you to do likewise (especially since there may be...

Let's start with an explanation of who "we" are. Are you one of the child's parents? Please also explain what you mean when you say this attorney "is biasing the court." The job of a minor's counsel is to advocate for the best interests of the child. That does not require that the attorney...
