    Builder changing contract. My options?

    What you describe is a constructive contract change outside the original scope of work. Personally, I'd track the associated cost until completion (to avoid a hostile environment) and bill thereafter. Finally; If I didn't want to keep that house, I'd sell it after billing cost to complete. It...

    Here's my take on this >>>> Your employer was generous in allowing you to file uncontested unemployment benefits since an applicant must be able to work in order to qualify.

    Assault & Battery Teacher threw object and hit student in back of head

    Speaking only as a layperson on this matter, I think the child is a crybaby. Also, you make no reference to what item was thrown. Perhaps it was a piece of paper. Sounds as though any damage was mental. I can remember being picked up by the hair and slapped across the face in first grade. Not...

    Consumer Law, Warranties Promissory Notes

    Seems to me as though a simple bill of sale with contract language disclosing the terms and conditions is in order. I would suggest re-licensing the vehicle once you secure the title after paying it off and taking the contract to DMV to be recorded. The title will be mailed to your cousin who...
