woo hoo! d'oh! YOUNG707 . . . The Plot Thickens! And so does my brain. Really! Here is the skinny. You have got to love some of these corporations whose primary legal-defense strategy against litigation is to wear-down, confuse, and discourage some potential plaintiffs by sending them...

3000 Miles to the East! YOUNG707. . . First valuable lesson here is that you never ask the condemned where to go to buy the rope to hang him with! So forget about asking the airliner because they would never volunteer that information. That said, your did not get any joy out of the folks up...

Secrets? Well, if by secrets you mean the nuts and bolts of a company and basically all the other bylaws and in-house rules and whatnots which also make it tick, there are none to speak of really when it comes to litigation; except of course things like the ingredients in Coca Cola or the KFC’S...

Non-Compete; Non-issue! SWEETJESS1951 . . . Ahhhh! Another non-compete case, and once again my blood boils with irritation at those two-bit clowns sitting in H.R. departments harassing and intimidating honest souls who are only trying to make a living with huge piles of unadulterated...

DOGGED... First and foremost, you cannot "recant" your signature as the witness and your reasoning that you did not have enough information about the will and did not know what you were doing is not going to carry much water because after all, all you did was witness somebody's signature and...

Lawsuit indeed! He doesn't have a leg to stand on; he has no case or claims and tell your brother not to worry about a lawsuit. Even counting for a scenario in which your brother was the LANDLORD when this individual went to Hotel Sing-Sing, his duty would have been limited to packing and...

You Can Avoid The Contract! CONCIENCIA: The best way to approach this dilemma is to first and foremost understand the nature and quality of the subject matter which will then allow you to fashion an appropriate remedial (legal) maneuver based on proper, cognitive, and recognizable statutes...

Lis Pendens or Partition! CHIQUITA... There are two options that you can exercise, both of which are quite drastic but will most probably yield you the desired outcome and bring the matter to a conclusion much faster than the repeated pleadings and requests to your ex-husband to refinance...

You are not an Agg-Fel! TIME... You are wasting time and energy worrying over nothing and you can apply for Citizenship with confidence about a favorable outcome and here are my reason why! You have absolutely nothing to worry about and the very simple fact that you are at home writing to...

Burglary? Felony? HELPPLS: What do you mean, you were charged with BURGLARY? Surely this is not correct, and since when is a $250 shoplifting a felony? I cannot imagine any law enforcement worth his or her salt making such an asinine and hugely ridiculous charge even if they are fresh out of...

No Absolute Immunity! MANSUR: I would say that not only immunity DOES NOT undermine the application of the laws of the land, if anything, it serves to enhance the application of law for the greater good and more desired outcome in criminal prosecution cases as well as instances when self...

She is on thin ice! KNULLIKIN7: The situation you find yourself in is 100% a civil matter and has no criminal implications and the finance company is way out of order for making a threat that sounds borderline criminal itself and I highly encourage you to report the woman from the finance...

B32I3 . . . You are wasting time and energy worrying over nothing; you have been asked to provide Biometrics as it is a must with any application having to do with immigration. It is in fact a good omen that your L.P.R. renewal will be decided in your favor and that is it. PERIOD. Let me...

You become quasi landlord! Well, the tenant who is staying behind simply steps into the shoes of the main landlord and becomes the lame tenant’s principle landlord and as such can sue to recover for all unpaid lease in an Unlawful Detainer action or forceful detainer action, depending on the...

First, let's check for tenacity! CTJNOU06…. Well, I can only guess that your husband was driving through Alabama when the accident occurred, and it is unfortunately the Alabama’s Long Arm Statute that has made it possible for the plaintiff to sue out of state residents in his own state court...

It Takes Three! The answer is NO! An attorney of record not only cannot “quit” in the midst of litigation without notifying the client, he also (technically) needs the client’s consent as well the court’s blessing by filing a Motion to Withdraw as Counsel. Such a motion should evidence...

You have two options! COLLIN45… Of course you can! But let’s call it by its proper label which is “rent adjustment” and not a “deduction,” and you will have to do it right away and without further delay or you will be deemed to have given implied consent to the interruptions caused by...

No Small Claims Court! ALICIA55: The proper way to proceed in this situation is NOT through the Small Claims Court. This is a Landlord-Tennant dispute and as such should be litigated in the right court room which has original jurisdiction over such cases. Therefore the proper venue to...

Finger Prints? KEILFRANK: “Where all this will go?” depends entirely on how far you and your girlfriend are willing to take this matter! For the ex-tenant’s trash talking and what not, you can either consider the whole thing to be just a storm in a tea cup, put it down to experience and...

If you are out, then you are fine! MRLUNA: No; your misdemeanor conviction will have NO adverse effect on renewal of your Green Card, not one bit even though your petition for U.S. Citizenship was denied. And for proof that the misdemeanor will not be a stumbling block in maintaining your...
