I am being sued on a medical bill from eight years ago. I did sign a promisory note when my insurance stopped paying, but this was in nov. of 2000. I haven't heard anything from these people in almost eight years. what is the statute of limitations in Louisiana on medical bills?

I'm sorry, but neither I nor anyone else on a message board can give you specific legal advice. I am not licensed to practice law in your state.

Good day CBG,
Our court day is soon approaching and I was hoping you can give me a kind advice.
My friend "Kate" left her 15 year old daughter and my 14 year old (her daughters friend) in the car with the key in ignition for AC (it was too hot in August); doing quick grocery shopping.
"Kate's" daughter decided to move the car one space further, then got scared of punishment. My daughter felt bad for her and volunteered to move the car back, causing an accident.
"Kate's" insurance will not pay, as she did not give permission to my daughter to operate her car. "Kate" is being sued by the plaintiffs Auto Insurance Company for negligently entrusting her car to my daughter and leaving the car running with the key in the ignition. Ironically my car is covered by the same Company.

My daughter is being sued as well for operating the vehicle in a careless, reckless and negligent manner as the agent/employee of "Kate". I know she didn't do it with any of the stated intentions; it was an innocently stupid accident. Did "Kate" in fact left her car "unattended" with two teens in it? Please advice how we should plead and if there is anything that can help us lower the payment. We do understand that we most likely have to pay. This happened in New Jersey. Thanking you in advance!

Hi, I recently sold a motorcycle, my buyer had issues with it, and now is sueing me for a ridiculous repair cost, even though I offered to help him fix it for 1/4 the price the shop quoted him. After he took ownership he had mechanical difficulties, crashed the bike due to his own negligence(not directly because of the aforementioned mechanical issues), had the estimate for damage done after the crash, and after he had had ownership for a week. My full story is listed under the "small claims" category. Any help with advice on where I stand legally is appreciated. Thank you.

I signed a contract reserving a boat slip for summer 2008 and sent a $1000 deposit, to reserve it. This was due on Feb 1st.

I had unexpected surgery in April and called the marina in April to let them know that I could not put my boat in this year. I asked that the deposit be applied to summer storage. I received a invoice for summer storage on July 1st.

They told me because I notified so late that they would charge me a for the slip until they could rent it.

There was no language in the contact that the deposit was non-refundable or that any terms with conditions such as prorating. It does say - If you do not want your slip to notifying them so they can open it up to their waiting list.

They wrote this to me today:

There were a few other customers who sent deposits and wished to break contract for various reasons. To be fair to all, we rent the slips available based on dates the customers called to advise us, first come, first serve. Those customers notified us as early as February and March and were aware that we would return deposits based on re-rental date of the slip. For your information, we were able to return some deposits. Others forfeited based on ability to re-rent until later in the season.

Can they do this without it being spelled out in the contract?
