Question

My 3 sisters and own a house...all 4 of us are on the deed..however I live in the home and I pay for everything taxes ..Insurance. etc...there isn't any morgage as it was my parents home..I want to know if my sisters are by law obligated to help me with the taxes.house insurance or matinence on the house...also since I am paying foe everything do Massachusetts laws entitle me to own this house after so many years...thank you

Answer

You can sell the home and split the profits or you can buy them out. The issue is what is a reasonable rent for the home versus the expenses you incurr.

For instance if the market rent for the home is $2000 a month and the insurance, taxes and necessary improvements that a tenant would not be required to pay are more than the rent, then they should contribute a portion of the difference.

My advice is to make a deal to buy them out at some point if you can afford it. At some point one or more of them may want or need the money from the value of the home.

Good luck

Answer

Thank you for your question.

As co-owners, each of them has the right to use and possession of the property, and each of them has an obligation toward its maintenance and upkeep. As attorney Roth has pointed out, you appear to be the only one living there. Generally a co-owner is not made to pay rent to live in their own home, but if you have excluded the others from living there or refused to make the property productive of income, there could be an argument that you should pay rent. You should really speak with a lawyer who practices in this area and put together a well-reasoned offer to buy out your siblings.

The fair market value of real estate seems to be on an upward trend at the moment, and it may be in your best interest to fix a price sooner rather than later. Do not hesitate to contact our office if you would like to discuss your options.

Question

The father of my two children and I separated and behind my back he signed over temporary custody to his parents and now the kids live with them because he is in rehab. Am I still legally in my rights as their mother to take them since they haven't gone before a judge to get custody?

Answer

You left the children with their dad..........one parent cannot sign over custody of his children to anyone without the other parent's consent or a court order. My questions are, why did he have them, and do you really want custody?

Question

Me and my spouse are getting divorced im a uk citizen and he american. When it is over I will have to return to the uk. My question is will I have a problem when it.comes to taking my son with me? He was born while we were married but im the one who has raised him and im a very competent mother, I have a apartment and job lined up for when I.return to the uk, I have a clean record and refuse to leave my son behind, any help would be gratefull. Incase it.makes a difference our son is 2yr.

Answer

Yes it could definitely be a problem. If he is part of your son's life then your relocation to Great Britain would deprive him of that. You will need to settle this issue before you are divorced. The divorce papers will have to specify that you have fully custody, that you are taking your son with you to Great Britain with his consent, and should include whatever visitation is agreed to. If you cannot agree to this I would strongly urge you to get a lawyer familiar with relocation law.

Question

When I signed my lease I also signed on to a one year internet contract. When I signed I very specifically asked if it was password protected and they said yes. They even had me contact a company to get the "password" and the company said there was no password. They charged everyone who signed onto the internet for $100 but as it turns out you had access to he internet whether you paid or didnt. I contacted them about getting my money back because they lied to me and from the people I have talked to in the building, they lied to everyone that signed onto the year contract. They were really rude when I contacted them about getting my money back. Do I have a case here, should I contact a lawyer?

Answer

You might consider suing "them" yourself in small claims court for

$100 + court costs. (This matter would not appear worth the time and expense involved in hiring an attorney.)

When does Maryland allow children to ride in the front seat of a vehicle?

When does Maryland allow children to ride in the front seat of a vehicle?
Maryland does not impose any restrictions on children in the front seat, with the exception being rear facing infant seats. However, the best interests of the child may be best suited in a seat which will protect them from the dangers of an adult sized lap and shoulder belt - a belt which goes across an adult's shoulders could be at an angle which would severely injure a child (think decapitation) in a collision.

Here's a synopsis of the current MD law:

 Transportation Article 22-412.2 (Child Restraints) Maryland's current law (effective June 30, 2008) requires that children under eight years old to ride in an appropriate child restraint,* unless the child is 4'9" or taller or weighs more than 65 pounds.

Question

We have a court date coming up on 13th and got notice in the mail showing that any documents we have needed to be registed with the court and all witness have to be listed w/i 10 days prior to the court date. We have registed all of our records/evidance and have not witness. The other party stated that they have witness but we have has no record of them being registered. The letter also stated that we will be notified of all witness 10 days prior to the court date. We have not been notified. Can the other party still use them in court? We have not time to prepair for possible question for them.

Answer

If the court is going to enforce the rules they will have to either exclude the witnesses or postpone the case to give you time to prepare for them. Normally one party discovers what evidence and witnesses the other party plans to present in court by taking pretrial discovery, such as interrogatories, a document request, or a deposition.

Question

I am the owner of a condominium in North Carolina. My tenant was fined by the HOA resulting from her ownership of pets. The HOA sent me the fine and I told my tenant to pay it. She recently moved out of the condo (leaving it heavily damaged, and taking the washer and dryer with her) without paying any money. With her gone, am I obligated to pay those fines?

Answer

Yes - you are responsible between the hOA and yourself. The tenant may be responsible to pay the fines as to you but you are responsible to the HOA.

Question

I am having difficulty understanding federal drug conspiracy.

Could someone explain this hypothetical to me?

Let's say Jeff is a large scale MDMA, Heroin, and Cocaine dealer in Nebraska. He sold 50g of MDMA to Adam from Delaware but also sold 1 kg of MDMA, 1kg of Heroin, and 1kg of Cocaine to other smaller dealers throughout the US. Adam sells the 50g of MDMA to people he knows locally. He also has an assistant Matt from Virginia who helps him sell MDMA sometimes by finding buyers. Overall, Matt helped Adam sell about 10g of MDMA. However, unknown to Adam, Matt also helped another guy (a bigger supplier) from Pennsylvania sell 5g of MDMA as well as 10g of Ketamine.

Assume that Jeff knows Adam, Adam knows Matt, Jeff doesn't know Matt and his other sources, and Adam doesn't know Matt's other sources.

Jeff, Adam, and Matt are arrested. The seller in Pennsylvania is not arrested. No one knows his real name. All everyone knows is that he is in Pennsylvania.

Jeff, Adam, and Matt are charged with a federal drug conspiracy.

Which drugs and which quantities will Jeff be responsible for at federal sentencing?

Which drugs and which quantities will Adam be responsible for at federal sentencing?

Which drugs and which quantities will Matt be responsible for at federal sentencing?

Where can Jeff be tried in federal court? Nebraska? Delaware? Virginia? Pennsylvania?

Where can Adam be tried in federal court? Nebraska? Delaware? Virginia? Pennsylvania?

Where can Matt be tried in federal court? Nebraska? Delaware? Virginia? Pennsylvania?

Answer

Pursuant to the Pinkerton case each defendant is personally responsible for everything he or she does and for everything that every other conspirator does after the date that the defendant joined the conspiracy, regardless of whether the defendant knew what the other conspirators were doing and regardless of whether he even knew about the other conspirators. The United States sentencing guidelines base the guideline range on what is foreseeable to the defendant. However the court made the part or very upward or downward from the guideline range.

An experienced criminal defense attorney can help you evaluate the prosecution's case, any defenses that you might have, and any plea offer that might be made, so that you can decide whether to go to trial. Consider seeking a confidential consultation.

My father died many years ago, should I have received his estate even if he never married my mother? No other children or wife existed then ...

Question

My father died many years ago, should I have received his estate even if he never married my mother? No other children or wife existed then or now to my knowledge.

Answer

First, you say that your biological father died many years ago. When? Where did he live at the time of his death? Why did you not do anything about this until now? Was an estate ever probated for your father? Did he have a will? What assets did your father own at the time of his death and how were they titled?

The starting point would be for to go to the probate court in the county/state where your father lived at the time of his death and see if an estate was ever probated for your father. Regardless of whether he had a will, if an estate was probated, it will tell you if there were probate assets and how they were distributed.

The problem is that if these assets were distributed a long time ago, why was no provision made for you since you were a child? Was any trust set up (if there was a will) or was the money paid to the clerk of court?

If no estate was probated, what assets did your father own at the time of his death? If he was not married to your mother, it means that you were born out of wedlock. Was paternity ever established? If not, then you have no automatic right to inherit. There are time limits for establishing paternity. However, the laws will vary depending on the state. Again, the problem here is that a lot of time has passed and it may be too late to try and establish paternity now.

Assuming NC law would apply, if your father had no will and if he was unmarried, your father's assets would pass to you and any children if paternity was established. Your share of the assets, if you were a minor (under 18), would either have been paid to your mother (if she established a guardianship if the assets were over $1500) or directly to your mother (if under $1500) or paid to the clerk of court. If the latter, you can check with the clerk in the county where the estate was pending to see if there is a fund for you.

If paternity was not established, then any assets owned by your father would have passed to his parents if they were alive and survived him. If not, then his siblings. If there was animosity by members of your father's family towards you and your mother or if the father's family was not aware of you, then the assets would have been disbursed and no attempt would have been made to notify you or your mother.

As I said, I would start with the probate court and see what was done if anything. I would check with the clerk of court or entity in the state charged with handling the assets of minors if your share of the estate was paid over. However, if no estate was probated, you might want to talk to your mother or other of your father's family to see what was done and what your father owned at the time of his death and whether there was any kind of effort to establish paternity for you (either through legitimation or some other means). Depending on what you find out, you then might want to talk to a probate attorney who practices in the county/state where your father's estate was probated to find out about the rules in that state.

My guess though is that this is going to be too late and/or your father had little in the way of assets.

Question

credit card funds withheld

our credit card processing company is withholding funds on goods already delivered during our going out of business sale; what recourse do I have?

Answer

Re: credit card funds withheld

If you can't resolve it by negotiation, then ultimately a lawsuit if you feel you are owed money. Feel free to contact me if you think it is worth the cost of having counsel involved, which might get it paid on the threat of litigation, if the case is in SoCal.

Answer

Re: credit card funds withheld

Your relationship with your processor (merchant bank) is contractual. Your starting point is to determine the reason why funds are being withheld.

Once you know their reasoning, then you can go back to your contract, study the relevant provisions (when the merchant bank may decline charges) and form an opinion as to whether there is a breach of the contract or whether the merchant bank is within its rights.

What is the statute of limitation for an on the job injury/accident

Question

What is the statute of limitation for an on the job injury/accident

Answer

Not so simple (like many aspects of law). Two years from the date of injury or when a reasonable person (objective standard) would have realized that their medical problem was work-related. But, after authorized medical/hospital benefits or indemnity checks are provided, the worker gets 1 year from the date of the last treatment by an authorized doctor. I've been helping injured workers for 36 years and I know from experience that some injured workers worry over small details like the Statute of Limitations (S/L) but ignore the bigger issues in the case. For example, trusting the employer and their carrier, the adjuster and the nurse case manager assigned to you is like letting the fox watch the henhouse! They may act like your buddy and you may be afraid to "rock the baby carriage" but that is exactly what they want, and which is the worst thing you can do. I've spoken to at least 100 injured workers who were sent back to light duty or sedentary duty for the same employer and they failed to get lawyer advice until months later when they got terminated or fired. The problem is widespread because the law is written to favor workers who cannot work (they have big cases), and disfavors workers who can return to any work even if unskilled sedentary work (they have little cases). So, the goal of the insurance company from the first day of the injury is to hand-pick the doctors who will treat you but who really are insurance doctors who get most of their patients from insurance companies, and get the doctors to return you to work ASAP and then the carrier tells your employer to make up a job sitting on a chair if necessary just to prove that you are not disabled. Then, months later, when the coast is clear, they terminated you which they have every right to do. Many workers wait until this point to see a lawyer and I've given them the same speech: "I'm a lawyer, not a magician! How can I make a decent case when you went back and worked which proves that you are not disabled? It's black and white....a man is either disabled or not. If he works, even sitting on a chair doing nothing....he is not disabled! Like a woman is either pregnant or not...she can't be half-pregnant! And, an injured worker can't be half-disabled! By going back to the sit-down job, you ruined any chance of making a decent claim. Sure, they'll offer you something to settle...maybe $10,000...maybe a little more. But, your case was worth over $200,000 and by sitting in that made up job, it cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars!"

Please don't wait to get good legal advice from a lawyer who does nothing but handling cases for injured workers. The good ones handle only injured workers and nothing else...they don't represent insurance companies or employers...just workers. If they are board-certfied in workers comp law by the Florida Bar, that's even better. Good luck,

Amount a lawyer would charge to represent you in a reckless driving case

Answer

Depends on the area and the facts of the case, as well as prior history. Lawyers will have different rates, and probably can't quote you an exact price until they know more about the case and the client.

With no aggravating facts, probably between $1,000 and $3,000 is a safe guess.

Question

I own a home and property along with an Equine business, currently the company has been paying for the homeowners insurance and property taxes due to using the home for business needs. I am inquiring on getting a farm liability policy in order to keep myself from loss and having others place their horses on my property when needed. Should the insurance and taxes be paid thru the company or should I be paying thru my personal account? What name should the insurance be in, personal or company?"

Answer

From the facts described in your inquiry, the insurance should be obtained in

your business name if your reason for obtaining the insurance is directly related

to your equine business. Likewise, if the insurance is directly related to your

business, it is deductible for income tax purposes. Depending on the division

of personal and business-related real property, you may be advised by your

tax preparer to apportion the insurance costs based on that division between

business and personal property. If the insurance expense is deductible for tax

purposes, you should pay it with your business account.

Question

What, specifically, are the laws in Maryland regarding recording police doing their job? They are allowed to record us with our consent, but aren't they are public servants. I have heard of a few cases where someone recording the police have been arrested and charged with a felony. If you are doing your job properly then you have nothing to worry about, is my thinking.

Answer

There are only 2 states where it's against the law to record a police officer, Illinois and Massachusetts. In a handful of other states, including Maryland, it is against the law to clandestinely video a police office without his knowledge. In other words, in these states, as long as it's obvious that you are recording to the police officer (and don' have the camera hidden in a bag or some other clandestine way), you may be arrested, but typically it will be for something like breaching the peace or interfering with an investigation. They are bogus charges that will often be dropped.

Here's a few articles on the subject:

Question

A theft sensor tag was left in clothing I purchased. When leaving the store that day, the alarm rand and I was waived through without the clerk looking in the bag. I didnt see the tag as it was in the pocket of my little boy's shorts. When I took them out of the bag and folded them, the nail of the tag punctured my right hand. It was painful for a few days. I did not lose work. Can I bring a case towards The Childrens Place?

Answer

Tough case to bring. Are your injuries significant. If not, perhaps a letter to the store migh result in your medical bills being paid. Good luck.

Answer

I agree. You can bring a case, but it will cost you more than you will recover. Take photos of the tag, the nail, your punctured hand and send those to the store with a copy to the local newspaper. Let the store know you will be reporting to the newspaper how they handle it and follow up.

the workers comp doctor released me to full duty while still injured

Question

the workers comp doctor released me to full duty while still injured

Answer

I do not understand why people who have compensation claims do not get lawyers. You need one. see www.FL-PI-Lawyer.com

Answer

I would check again with the doctor, to see if when he says "full duty" does it mean 40 hours per week, as it might also include some restrictions and limitations too. This is a complex medical and legal issue, which may require more extensive review by an attorney with a specialty in handling workers' compensation matters. That is where I would go next.

Question

I gave a lawyer a $2800 retainer fee for a child custody case and was told at that time that most people do not exceed that $2800 fee. This was back in September, 2011. We had a deposition and went to a temporary trial, but have not yet gone to mediation (and obviously not the final hearing). I have asked my lawyer at least 4 times to send me an itemized bill so I know where I stand with the retainer. I was finally (last week) sent 2 separate bills. One from Sept to Oct of this year in which my retainer fee was almost entirely used up (the bill was printed on Dec 12) and another bill on Dec 14 from Oct through this month showing charges of over $3,000. This seems absolutely unethical to me. In addition... the lawyer also told me not to contact the other parent of my child the day before the trial to arrange visitation... and as it turns out, that advice was used against me in the temporary judgement of the magistrate. I was also billed for a deposition that I never even knew took place until the day of the trial. The deposition was never used in trial but supposedly took place some time in October. I still don't know what questions were asked in this deposition or what was said. In addition to this, the lawyer is charging me $250 an hour for services regardless of whether she is doing the work or her paralegal is doing the work. I have contacted other lawyers who have told me they charge $100 an hour for their paralegals work. I gathered several statements from doctors and therapists to help prove what is in the best interest of my child. However, the lawyer never presented a single piece of evidence at the temporary hearing. I was told this is not the time to present that information or else it was irrelevant. However, the other parent called a therapist to testify at the trial and the magistrate seemed to deem that very relevant to her decision. What are my rights? What is my best course of action? No other attorney is going to be willing to take on a case in which I owe another lawyer $3000. I called 7 different numbers in Florida today (including the State Bar Association). I asked what are the expectations between a client and a lawyer? Surely there is something in writing SOMEWHERE that states what a client can expect from a lawyer they have paid thousands of dollars to? Her answer? (and this is someone from the Bar Association) "I have a lawyer myself... and I can't even answer that question!" I was told it is standard practice to notify clients when you are within $500 of using up your retainer fee. What is my best course of action? I called the lawyer today to go over my bill... I was asked if they could pull my file and call me right back...but, they never called.

Answer

I would be willing to bet that there is a lot more going on here than meets the eye. You sound educated. did you sign a retainer agreement? Was the fee based on an hourly rate of $250.00 per hour or a one time fee of $2,800.00 to accomplish what? If everything you stated above is correct, then I would suggest you contact the Florida Bar - file a complaint against this attorney. The only reason another attorney would not take the case is because as of the court record this is your attorney. That attorney must file a withdrawal of counsel or a substitution of counsel so another attorney can represent you. You can fire this attorney but you will need this attorney to file withdrawal based on being fired.

Question

I work for a cash for gold business. We are required to take all good home with us at the end of the day and ship it out the following day. On Fridays, if we work a Saturday shift, we hold the gold until they can be shipped together on Monday. Recently, my boss has taken an interest in my attendance and says I have the worst attendance and that I call off "sick" too much. Basically implying I am a liar. Then a day later I get a call saying that I have gold missing from my packages. Not only one package but 2. They didn't bother seeing if it got removed through shipping and to be honest I can't prove they got it but I believe they did and now they want me to pay back the amount they paid for it plus what profit they might have made off of it which is more than double what they paid. What do I do? I think they're trying to get me to quit. They never ran investigation on me or anything.

Answer

To be blunt, they sound like a-holes, and if they have no accountability protocols like a receipt system (you sign a receipt for what you get, etc. or what someone gives you) then you may be working for bad people. Think about the total situation. They could be making these claims just so they can turn around and claim some insurance losses. If it smells, get out. Otherwise, you can ask them ro prove it but in Illinois you can quit anytime or they can fire you anytime, for any or no reason, unless there's a work contract or union collective bargaining agreement.

Question

I have been approached with an opportunity to purchase a business, however, the business has just been issued a subpoena from the AG of the state of Kansas. Would I be subject to the same investigation if the business was purchased by myself under different article of incorporation. The investigation is into the advertising practices of the company, which would change once ownership would change hands. I would like to make sure that I would not be under any risk of injuctions or otherwise that would cause me to have to stop business operations when I was not the owner of the business when the subpeona was issued. Any advice is appreciated.

Answer

Of course you would be subject to the subpeona, if you own or possess the records of the business. If you operate the business under the danger company name, an injunction would still be effective. But, if the new corporations merely buys the assets of the tainted business, the new company might be free to operate. Obviously, the value of the present business is worth very little or nothing until the cloud is cleared up. The only real value would be the inventory, equipment and possibly the buildings and grounds. Based upon what you report, the accounts receivable are probably worthless, and the bad will of the company reduces the value of the assets.

Question

My legal address is Florida, but I am in California at least half of the year due to work, but not with a regular address in California. I stay in hotels or couch surf. I want to make up my will and I do not know which is appropriate a Florida Will or a California Will. Does it really matter? Thank you.

Answer

A Florida resident should have a will which is valid under FL law, indicating place of residence and that FL law will be applied. Such will is legal under California law.

Answer

It does matter. You Will needs to be from where you are a resident, and therefore subject to that State's tax laws. There is a huge difference on taxes between Florida and California.

Answer

There are multiple reasons you should select one state over the other, not the least of which is to leave your estate and assets to those you desire in an organized fashion. The state you select and put down as your permanent residence will effect the following: elective share to a spouse or future spouse; qualification variance for Medicaid and other governmental benefits; creditors rights where you could either protect your assets from same or be subject to losing them; certain constitutional benefits to spouse, as well as marital laws that differ; property obligations under California's Community property laws including divorce; income, inheritance and realty tax differences; not to mention jurisdicition of the courts and as to contracts entered into! Hope this helps make up your mind, but the differences should be disscussed with qualified legal counsel.

Question

This is a question specific to a case about which I am involved as an employer; i.e., a trusted employee designed a special system to minimize water intrusion into a warehouse utilizing company resources (company tools, truck, equipment, and designated materials needed for the prototype for the job). I have two questions: 1. Who owns the rights to the "intrusion system".

My second question is this: This same "system" was tested several times before our company (this employee) got it right; whereupon, a field test was performed for company officials to whom we were trying to sell the "system". They approved the design and asked for a proposal; we submitted a lenghty proposal giving them a cost breakdown based on facts and specifications provided us by the trusted employee. Four days after we submitted our price, this 'trusted' employee submitted his own proposal to the company for which we had been working closely to get our design approved...all unbeknown to our company, of course.

Their company officials accepted his lower bid on the project and, subsequesntly, not only gave our employee this bid, but also went back to him to do another lucrative project for them based on the fact that "he was the designer person", even though he worked for us.

We never know until the employee resigned from ouur company; only then did it all come to light.

My third question is this: Isn't there law in place, or a case like ours, where the company that allowed this employee to sell them directly knowing he worked for our company during the entire design process? Should not they also be enjoined in a legal argument that they participated in allowing this guy to surreptitiously sell to them knowing he worked for us? Should they, too, have the responsiblility to be honest with our comapny?

Answer

1. Your company would own the rights to the intrusion system since it was

apparently developed by your employee during the course of his employment

and using your company's resources (in my opinion).

2. Yes, this untrustworthy (former) employee should be liable to your company

in civil damages (even though you haven't specifically asked that question).

3. Charging the other company with conspiracy to defraud, tortious interference in business relations, and/or other torts would require a detailed review of many other factual issues connected with their alleged participation in the matter

and which are not evident from the question.

Question

my son is deployed I have his guardianship for his two children, the mother has left the children and is on drugs we have petinioned the court for Full guardianship.Our fear is she will come get the children agaist our and the fathers wishes.do you think an ex parte would be granted and how long does it take to go into effect?

Answer

If you don't have a lawyer, expect a long list of hurdles and problems. A guessing game about what might happen won't help you. If a proper guardianship for the children is really important, it is worth hiring a lawyer.

Answer

These are complicated issues, very difficult. There is not enough information to adequately respond. However, generally, if you have temporary guardianship and the parents attempt to revoke it there would be a hearing, if you file an objection, to determine what is in the best interests of the children. If the Mother is truly unfit and you can prove it with clear and convincing evidence, then you should remain as Guardians, pending your son's return. In some cases you might even petition for permanent custody, depending on the situation. Ex parte orders are seldom granted for long periods; normally they are granted for safety reasons and a full hearing is conducted when all parties can be present and present their evidence. You need to get a lawyer if you expect to be successful, as parents rights generally trump third parties except in limited legal situations, which only experienced family law attorneys are familiar with.

How many errors can there be in a police report before the ase gets thrown out?

Answer

Unless the defendant hires an attorney, odds are they'll get away with it.

Answer

It depends on what the errors are. If the officer is a terrible speller and every other word is wrong, does that change the underlying facts? No.

Or are they factual errors that cast serious doubt on the accuracy and truth of the rest of the report and undermine the integrity of the investigation?

Question

So I am a Sikh teenager and i am thinking about joining the army, but in my religion one is not allowed to cut hair for religious reasons but in the military one has to, but during WWII Sikhs were allowed in the army with their hair uncut so my question is: if I want to join the army do I have to cut my hair? and if I am rejected may I sue to join a military branch and join one with my hair intact?

Answer

There is no religious exception for haircuts. If you enlist, your head will be shaved. You may not sue DoD or any military branch on the ground that you should be entitled to an exception to regulations based on your religion. Two options are available to you: Enlist and conform to all obligations under your enlistment contract or do not enlist.

Question

When we purchased our home in CA. we took a 1st & 2nd which was a HELOC. Both loan agreements/contracts were signed at the same time. The HELOC was later refinanced and an addt'l $20-30k was taken out for home improvements. Foreclosure on the property is inevitable - short sale has been in process for a year but lender not cooperating. A collection agency servincing the HELOC has now been calling trying to set up a payment plan or they state they can garnish wages, place liens and/or sieze savings accts. Both the 1st and 2nd (HELOC) mortgages were originally held by Citimortgage. Citimortgage has since sold the 1st but still owns the HELOC and has a collection agency currently servicing the loan. Are we liable for the HELOC if it was taken out at the time of purchase? Can wages be garnished? Can they seize our savings accounts? Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide.

Answer

Wages can be garnished and bank accounts levied if they get a judgment.

When you refinanced the property, you destroyed any purchase money anti-deficiency protection that you had, if any, under Code of Civil Procedure section 580b. (Union Bank v. Wendland (1st Dist. 1976) 54 Cal.App.3d 393, 400.)

If the holder of the first forecloses against you nonjudicially, through what is known as a trustees sale, the holder of the first is prohibited from obtaining a deficiency judgment against you, by application of Code of Civil Procedure section 580d. The holder of the second, however, becomes what is called a "frozen out junior lienor" and can sue you directly on the note. The frozen out junior lienor rule would not apply if both the first and second were the same lender, but it appears from your post that the first has been sold to someone else.

If the Citimortgage pursues the matter now, and the property has not been foreclosed, you can raise the security first provisions of Code of Civil Procedure section 726, but that would not prevent a deficiency judgment against you, in the long run.

Question

Hello ! I came in US three years ago by visa K-1 and married the petitioner of the visa. We have a 2 years old child together. my husband never applied for a Green Card for me and called an eligal alient. About a year ago he brought in the house swingers and said that he wants to have fun in the life and if I do not want to be involved that I can leave US and the child will stay with him. He stopped buy food and disconnected my cell phone ,also home phone and internet. He cancelled my bank account , cash he never left me. I am staying at home Mom plus I do not have permission to work . I am also do not drive because I do not have a Green Card .I called police and they said that my husband is mentally abusing me but I have a rights and have to be seeking for the help.

I applied with the immigration lawyer self-petition based on abuse under the VAWA.

We have got an answer that USCIS is looking for strong proofs when it will be real cruelty .Right now I am waiting for the answer from USCIS after we provided some more information to make it clear.

My question is how many chances I have to prove mental abuse and if not then what else can help me to get legal status ?

Here is some more information:

I married a US sitizen who was a petitioner of the K-1 visa

We have a 2 years baby-girl

My husband never applied for the Green Card and forced me to leave

He put cameras inside of the house to watch me from his cell phone

He disconnected home phone and internet with TV and my cell phone

He cancelled my bank account

He is travelling for his job and when he was on his job 4 days every week, he left me $ 20 cash . Any other allowance I did not have.

He asked me to leave US and leave the child after I refused to be involved in relashionship with the swingers whom my husband met online . He payed on that site from his bank card and I printed it out . He also wrote on the swinger s site that he would bring the child to meet them if they will be agree.

He did not buy food for me and the child when the child was on breast feeding.My neighbour bought me food and I have a letters from her and people who bought me the cell phone and gave me money for the food while my husband did not do this . Police said that he was forcing me to leave the house because how long someone can stay without money and the food in the house.

Everything what my husband did to me , I wrote down, I have letters from the people who witnessed that my husband did not buy food for me and the child, letters from people who gave me money and bought me the cell phone to support me , etc.

My child is a citizen of US and my husband does not want her to leave the country but I do not have permission to work because I do not have a Green Card , then how I can support myself and pay rent .

How I can get a Green Card without my husband ?

Thank you.

Answer

The Attorney you hired should be advising you on this matter, including the types of evidence you need to prove a VAWA case, such as letters from friends, relatives, clergy, etc., police reports, letters from therapists, social workers, etc. regarding the abuse you have endured.

The only way you can get a greencard, since you entered on a K-1, is by the VAWA petition. You can leave the U.S., but your husband has custody rights to your child & the Family Court will probably not let you leave the country with the child.

Question

I stopped going to the Reserves drill two months ago because I will no longer wear a military uniform for moral reasons. I have been in for a little over 2 years. I am hesitant to apply for Conscientious Objector status because all of the red tape and bureaucracy involved, and it is very hard to get approved. If I continue to cut contact and never show up I will most likely receive an OTH discharge (from my understanding, correct me if I am wrong). Is there a way to get a better discharge in my circumstance?

Answer

You're presently in violation of Article 87 (AWOL) and if your intent is to stay away permanently you are in violation of Article 85 (desertion). The consequences of either are severe but if you are charged under article 85 you could do prison time. What you need to do is find yourself an attorney who is familiar with military law and get this mess handled. Every day you stay away works against you. Check this out.

Question

can a personal representative sell property of the deceased? In other words is a personal representative the same as the executor?

Answer

Yes, unless the will, trust, or order of the court provides otherwise. Generally,

the PR has power to manage and sell property consistent with the intent

expressed in the will by the testator, same as an executor.

Answer

A Personal Representative is the same as an Executor, Executrix, Administrator or Administratrix. In Florida they created one term to refer to all 4 related alternatives.

Yes, a Personal Representative could sell property that is part of the probated estate. However, they couldn't necessarily do it for real estate, and sometimes they need court approval to sell.

If me and my wife have no kids, no property or anything of value between us two and have been separated for at least three years, How can I ...

Question

If me and my wife have no kids, no property or anything of value between us two and have been separated for at least three years, How can I get a speedy divorce that doesn't cost me two much like under two hundred dollars?

Answer

You can't.

What you can do is go to the courthouse and get some free forms for filing your divorce, serving your wife, and preparing a final decree. You won't have to incur any legal fees.

But your filing fees and service fees will be in the $300 range--or more. If she's willing to sign a waiver of service, you can get it done for just the filing fee, which differs by county, but is usually in the $250+/- range. (Attorneys who claim to do divorce for $300 or so will also charge you extra for the filing fees, so that puts you in the $550 to $600 range.)

The minimum amount of time you have to wait is 60 days from the date you file your petition for divorce.

How do we get out of a lease purchase agreement when we have been put in the middle of a well battle between the landlord and another person using the well and threatened many times by neighbors for no other reason except that the landlord wins so we keep water?

Answer

A lease purchase agreement does not obligate you to buy the property, if written properly. As the tenant, you are not in the middle, even though the neighbor is complaining to you because you occupy the property. You should consult with an attorney, such as myself, to review the lease purchase agreement and advise you of your rights, duties and alternative courses of action.

Question

Can I leave the state with my 3 year old child to flee from an abusive husband? There is an active restraining order currently in place against him.

Answer

Yes, unless there is a Court Order stating otherwise. If he has visitation per the domestic violence Injunction, he might assert that your relocating out-of-State frustrates the intention of the Order.

If the marriage is over, pursue a divorce.

Confer with an experienced family law attorney.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

Call me to discuss the specifics of your case. I will give you a realistic idea as to the likely cost (fees and expenses). Then if you want, we can schedule a no-obligation office consultation.

Question

I have been diagnosised with stage-4 cancer and preparing a will. I have approximately $75,000 in a retirement account and @ 20 k in a savings. I have approximately 5,000 in credit card debit. If there is no probate, can I still spilt up my retirement and savings equally to (siblings and parents after taxes) without having to pay off the credit card debt?

Answer

There is an easier way to handle your affairs. Name your siblings and parents as beneficiaries on the accounts, to receive payment upon your death. There will be nothing left to pay off the credit card, unless the beneficaries want to pay off the balance, but they are not obligated to. And tell them to not let the creditor pressure them for payment, should they not want to pay off the balance or negotiate the balance down to some lesser sum.

Answer

Heirs cannot inherit property without making sure the estate's debt is paid. Otherwise the debt follows the gift.

Question

To whom it may concern,

I was arrested and convicted for a federal crime in san diego,ca i was sentence to 1 year in prison and 3 years of probation,i was not arrested at my residence,and my case was involving aliens i got release november to a half way house and started probation on january,i asked for a travel permot to mexico wich is just a few miles from san diego but they say i couldnt go until i was done with probation is there anyway to change that if the judge made that decision?

Answer

You could file a Petition with the convicting court to seek an order regarding travel that you request, but if your parole / probation officer opposes it, then the court is not likely to grant it. Ask your PO.

Question

visitation

my kids dad has been in jail for the last 7 years and has gotten out and he wants the kids to come 3 hours away for visitation and they do not want to go because they barely know him and he is threatening to take it to court. I asked him to come around and give them the chance to get to know him and I offered to bring them to where he lives but he wants them to come for the entire weekend without me. They don't want to go. What kind of chance do we have in court? Will they be forced to visit him.

Question

My ex boyfriend physically grabbed and threw me out of our apartment while I was trying to remove some of my personal belongings.He was chocking me and I bit his hand,he left and I continued to remove my belongings. He had called the police and claimed I assulted him. They arrested me. At the jail they noticed the scrapes and bruises he had caused and took pictures. The police never asked me for my side of the story they just arrested me. Now I have to appear in court. I can not afford an attorney. Besides being much bigger than me he also had the locks changed on the apartment even though I am on the lease.Please,what can I do?

Answer

Plead "not guilty."

Ask for a court-appointed lawyer.

Question

Should an unmarried couple give a newborn child the father's last name, and what are the legal details of that. The parents live together, however there is no immediate plan for marriage.

Answer

Probably, not a good idea at this stage in matters (my opinion) for

a variety of reasons. Later on, if the relationship

endures, the parents can quite easily have the child's name changed by

filing a petition in the local circuit court entitled "Name Change

for a Minor Child". The petition is available at some clerk of court offices

or online in a packet of forms with instructions and one does not require

the services of an attorney to do it.

Question

my family lives in north carolina and when my grandparents who raised me passed away there will read everything would go to the surviving spouse in the event they both passed everything went to my father and then me. question is, my grandfather passed first then grandmother 4 months later , no will was ever re done and my father inherited everything. if he passes does my grandparents will hold any validity if he has his own will? he is recently widowed and i have 2 step siblings .

Answer

Its not that the grandparents' wills are invalid. However, the grandparents' wills only control the disposition of their assets. Once those assets pass to the beneficiary (your father), they are owned by your father and when he dies, the disposition of his assets will be controlled by your father's will, not your grandparents' wills.

If your grandparents wanted to maintain control, they ought to have set up a testamentary or living trust.

You say you have 2 step-siblings. Did your father ever adopt them? Does your father have a will? If your father has no will, everything will pass to his spoues (if any, as he could remarry intheory) and any natural or adopted children. However, children of his deceased spouse do not inherit by right. If your father has a will, he can leave his assets to whomever he wishes and could disinherit a biological child and include the step-children if he so chooses.

How do you install a car seat?

How do you install a car seat?
Before you install the car seat, you must find the right car seat for your child and also decide where to install the seat in the car. I would recommend installing it in the middle seat because it is the safest place for a baby to be seated. Reading the instructions will also help and watching youtube videos. Firstly, to install a foward facing seat place the car seat in the car and put the seatbelt through the hole in the car seat and place all your weight on the seat and pull the whole seat belt out and let go until the seat belt lock is on and then sit on the seat and pull the seat belt until it is tight. Then you will need to hook the top harness onto the hook at the back of the car and tighten it. Your seat shouldn't move more than an inch side to side.

Question

My employer is the owner of the buisness I am working at. He has been sexually harassing me by forcing me to sit on his lap and always hugging me he has even gone as far as making sexual comments towards me. I have asked him numerous times to stop and have also threatend him withpolice involvment. He always says sorry ans insists that he will stop but continues to do it. I cant afford to lose my job because of this. What do I do?

Answer

Send him written notice(or have an attorney do it) that he must immediately cease and desist his sexual harassment of you which he continues to engage in despite your repeated requests that he stop and which is a violation of federal as well as state law. And, furthermore, if he decides to terminate

your employment after receiving this letter, it will be considered as prima

facie evidence that he has taken illegal retaliatory action against you for which he could incur further liability resulting from your attempt

to persuade him to cease and desist from this illegal and most inappropriate behaviour directed towards your person as his employee.

Question

I bought a business from a corporation that I found out after the sale was dissolved. They presented themselves as still being in business and never disclosed that they were dissolved. In fact, they were still buying and selling as usual. I paid much too much for the business because they falsefied their tax returns and In the course of buying the business the sellers also assigned their lease to me which was way above market value. The land lord was aware - and think might have been envolved in what I consider to be fraud. Do I have a case?

Answer

It sounds like you were purchasing the business, not the corporation. So I am not sure how significant it is that the corporation was not in good standing. The fact that you relied on false financial information is an issue and an attorney would need to review the purchase agreement to see if you waived any rights. Many agreements contain due diligence provisions that state that you are not relying on information, etc.... The lease they assigned was the lease they had. Many leases entered into before the economic downturn are at rates that are no longer competitive, but I don't think they misrepresented their lease. They offered to assign the lease and you accepted it. They did not have any obligation to renegotiate their existing lease. You need to take your purchase agreement and related documents to a lawyer and have them reviewed.

Answer

Depends. If you can prove actual fraudulent concealment and misrepresentation of the books, income, sales, inventory, orders, capital value, etc., then sure, you can sue. If you were simply negligent by failing to conduct an effective 'due diligence' investigation about what you were buying, then a law suit is going to be money and time wasted. Now, if you think you can prove what is needed, feel free to contact me to discuss the actual facts, costs, risks and rewards of suing.

Answer

The "dissolved corporation" part of your argument is a waste of time, as I tried to point out in my previous answer to your mid-day version of your question. As far as the tax returns go, most businesses that "fudge" their returns will be trying to look LESS profitable than they really are. You should have had them give you permission to ask the IRS for copies of the as-filed originals.

As far as fraud goes, you will need to plead and prove a material mis-representation of fact, or concealment of a material fact; that you relied upon the misrepresented or omitted fact in deciding to buy or how much to pay, that such reliance was reasonable, and that you suffered harm as a result of your reliance.

If you can do so based on admissible evidence, a suit for fraud may be worth while, and you should discuss the possibilities with a lawyer. However, the status of the corporation as dissolved adds nothing to your possible complaint, nor is it likely that the overpricing of the premises lease adds anything unless it was concealed. Courts will not compensate you for paying too much.

Answer

Well, the first question is whether you bought the shares of the assets of the corporation. Second, I would assume that you have a written purchase agreement that spells out the various seller warranties on such transferring of assets or shares. So, in order to fully answer your question, you will want to select an attorney and provide him/her with a copy of the purchase agreement. Often your rights and responsibilities will be detailed in the signed agreement.

Question

I am going through a divorce in Texas. I have raises a child since birth I was at the hospital when she was born and I really need to find away to fight for my rights to my oldest child she is what tought me to be a dad. Her rather plays no role in her life and never has and has no intentions of being there for her. My wife and I had a child together also and if something were to happen to her I don't want my daughters seperated. I really need a way to be able to adopt her or something. She is 9 years old and only knows me as dad. I don't want her to go somewhere that she knows nothing about.

Answer

We need a little more information.

The child that you raised since birth - is this a stepchild? Has the paternity of the biological father ever been the subject of a court order?

Question

I work at a restaurant in Southern California, and recently they started taxing all of our credit card tips on our paychecks. Majority of the time we receive credit card tips only, and we are required to tip out the expo, host, and bartender at the end of the night. Because of this, we are being taxed on tips that we aren't even keeping. Is this legal?

Answer

No.

Question

Hi,

I am a pro se litigant who has filed a Motion fro Summary Judgment. The return date was scheduled for March 8th 2012. The plaintiff retained a new counsel who asked for an adjournment stating they did not have enough time to prepare response papers. I objected as the plaintiff has changed lawyers twice so far. The previous lawyer withdrew due to nonpayment of fees. Second lawyer suggested the plaintiff pay and settle. Plaintiff did not like this so hired a third lawyer.

How many adjournments will the judge allow a plaintiff to have? What if he keeps finding cheap lawyers to represent him? What are my options?

Answer

One of the problems with being a pro se litigant is the lack of respect afforded to you by the Court.

There is very little you can do to prevent future stalling tactics. A change of attorney is a valid reason for granting an adjournment. Just be patient for now. Even attorneys must deal with these delays.

Good luck!

Question

My landlord entered my residence by force while my 16 & 17 yeaar old were home city police said she had every right to enter home and because eviction.notice was 15 days past due- that gave her all the right. I had not been served with fetainer

Answer

I assume you are speaking about the 3 day notice or quit. The landlord can not enter by force and can not enter peacefully without giving you reasonable notice. You are entitled to peaceful enjoyment of the until until the sheriff serves you with the eviction notice that comes after an unlawful detainer judgment. But what are your damages? Perhaps a few hundred dollars which would be offset by the rent you owe so you would not really collect anything, just reduce your liability to the landlord.

Question

My husband took a job with a major corporation. We moved several states away for the job. It turns out the company hired many people without having a position for them. They were hiring in anticipation of employees retiring and winning contracts. Neither of those happened. Instead of furloughing these guys, they are forcing them to work out of state and are not paying for their lodging. They are payed less now because of the job they are doing. There are several guys that will probably end up losing their jobs because they cannot afford to pay a mortgage back home and hotel fees out of state. Can the company do this legally?

Answer

Is your H paid as agreed?

Then unless they agreed to pay relo expense

He is getting what he bargained for

Question

New Question:

Does it give a cop probable cause to arrest if they know they are going to write up a report in a manner that that they know the District Attorney will not pick up the case? Meaning they know you will not be prosecuted but want to violate your rights to Freedom anyways, because they can........

Previous question:

How many time does a person have to be arrested for any reason when the DA fails to pick up any charges prior to the cops being considered harassing of the person. I have been arrested 4 times in the prior year, none of the times were any charges picked up. This has happened several other occasions in the past, how many times does it take before i can file against them for putting me in jail when they knew they didn't have a case or just because they could put me in there so they did put me in jail? It seems unfair that they tell another person that got arrested and not charged that they just "feel we needed a time out, not to worry we are going to write up the case in a manner that the DA will not pick up charges against you or her." That fully supports the cops just arresting us because they could and not for valid purposes. Do I have a case against the police in ca. for this?

Previous Attorney Response:

All they need is probable cause to do this. If not then 1 is enough.

Answer

My experience in this area is limited to three years as a law clerk in the public defender's office while in law school. I'd say you haven't given us sufficient information about the circumstances of the arrest or what the police reports allege. The DA's office and the courts are clogged with serious matters. Lots of illegal activity goes unprosecuted. Don't push your luck; next time you may get fined or be given 30 days in the slammer. Or worse.

Answer

I'm a criminal defense lawyer and I've seen situations similar to what you describe many times. Without more facts I cannot tell you whether probable cause exists. Merely because the DA does not pick up the case is not proof that probable cause does not exist. There are many reasons a DA does not pick up a case. In many jurisdictions there are ongoing fights between the police department and the DA over what should be prosecuted and I suspect that is what is happening in your city. You are unlucky enough to be caught in the middle. You might repost your question for a civil rights attorney who can better answer whether it is harassment.
