    Union and benefits

    Whether benefits would be worse than, the same as, or better than what you currently have depends entirely on the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. Of course, if only 2% of the workforce is in favor of the union, then it's highly unlikely to happen.

    Union and benefits

    Sorry, but your question is pretty well unintelligible. I suggest you try again and be clear about who's who and what the relevant facts are.

    How to handle mineral rights in prior person's name that were never re-titled to decedent?

    The best thing that the executor of Diane's estate can do is consult with a local probate attorney. The attorney can advise the executor regarding the approximate cost. In the meantime, the executor can ascertain the value of the mineral rights to determine their approximate value. Once the...

    How to handle mineral rights in prior person's name that were never re-titled to decedent?

    Helping whom? And how? Just to clarify, the proceedings to probate both Sam's and Diane's estates are/were happening in NM, which is also where the property over which Desmond had mineral rights is located. Right? What was the date of the divorce decree? What were Sam's and Diane's dates...

    Copyright Halloween Mask Copyright Question

    You are correct. Registering a copyright is an absolute prerequisite to an infringement suit. 17 U.S.C. section 411. In addition, as I alluded to in my initial response, registering a work prior to (or within a very short time after) infringement provides significant benefits. In particular...

    Copyright Halloween Mask Copyright Question

    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...

    Copyright Halloween Mask Copyright Question

    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...

    Township Utility Easement

    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...

    exWife increased a loan/Moneyline amount that I'm still on

    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.

    exWife increased a loan/Moneyline amount that I'm still on

    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...

    Commercial Seller Financing payment deposited in wrong acct

    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...

    CPS used to retaliate

    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...

    Can a City Council Socialize Ambulance Fee Losses?

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

    Can I be terminated because of my wife's custody agreement?

    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...

    Mercedes Benz Discrimination, poor treatment, anxiety and financial lost

    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...

    Can a City Council Socialize Ambulance Fee Losses?

    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...

    Man Lied About Having a Vasectomy

    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...
