How do I fix a stop and seize plate in the name of a deceased family member?
I don't know what topic to put this under which I apologize, because I feel like this is a unique situation. Also sorry for writing a long post, I just need to explain everything so you know the full aspect of the situation. Which I appreciate in advance you taking the time to read it and answer my question and concerns.
So my grandmother had gotten sick from a stroke and ended up passing away one year ago. Before she got sick she had given me her new vehicle, but I was making payments on the car on her behalf so I couldn't transfer the title until it was fully paid off.
So I finished paying off the car and when the title didn't come we decided to look into it and found out there was a stop and seize on the plate because of a lapsed insurance on my grandmother's name, but that was because she wasn't driving she was in a vegetative state and ended up passing away. Also I currently I have Geico insurance under my name registered to the vehicle with the same matching Vin and everything written on the insurance card.
So now the problem is that the registration is expiring next week and there's no way for me to renew it even online because of the stop. So how do I go about fixing this issue so I can then get the title so then the title and insurance can be transferred to my name properly and everything? Because I use this car as my daily driver even to get to work and things like that. I don't even know how long the stop and seize has been on the car, but I've been driving it until we just figured it out now, which I'm surprised that the credit company which was car manufacturers own credit company or the DMV never sent us a letter to tell us that the insurance was going to lapse.
Also some additional information so you know. My dad was given the full rights by the court to his mother my grandmother, and the credit company has these records for more than a year as well. So with the credit company it's under her name, but with my dad given full legal rights to talk about and handle everything with this account with full authority. My dad is also the cosigner on the car as well from the get go when they bought it new at the dealership. We also have an official death certificate from the state for my grandmother, as well as documentation that my dad has full legal rights of my grandmother his mother from the courts.

Theft and Larceny: Charged with Felony for Theft when They Stole from Me First
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Kentucky
1) I worked for a Contractor as a Subcontractor, however the IRS would reclassify me as an employee.
2) While removing an item from home, minor paint rub damage occurred to exterior door.
3) Door was to be painted anyway so I made arrangements with customer to paint door free of charge.
4) Contractor found out and he chose to replace the entire door, when a paint job would have remedied the problem.
5) Contractor kept a considerable amount (1000s) of my wages without my consent.
6) I had a few tools of the contractor in my possession that I retained as indemnification against the loss.
7) Contractor took tools of mine from customer's job site without my consent and has not returned them.
8) In the last email I sent to him I offered a settlement amount of my wages for his stuff or that we could just keep what each other had and go our separate ways.
9) Contractor never responded so i assumed he chose option 2.
10) Contractor never demanded surrender of his tools regardless if there was a settlement or not.
11) Contractor filed criminal theft charges on me a month later.
12) Contractor did not state in police report that he kept my wages or that we had been in negotiations. The only thing he stated was that I quit and took tools.
13) By Kentucky law, contractor committed theft of services because he allowed me to work for 2 weeks knowing he was going to retain wages. Basically the law states that if he allowed me to work knowing that my services were only for profit, he is guilty of the exact same level of violation that I've been charged with.
I have no criminal record and this whole thing has me sick to my stomach. Obviously I need legal council and I am in the process of that. Just looking for some professional opinions to hopefully abate the anxiety that I'm going through.

Giving Notice: How Much Notice is Required to Move Out if There is No Written Lease
My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Pennsylvania
In Pennsylvania Landlord-Tenant Law, I can't find anything regarding this specific situation. The landlord and tenant have no lease, no written agreement, and have operated by meeting in person and paying in cash with handwritten receipts for years.
My question is how much notice is required for the tenant to leave? Right now the tenant gave about a week's notice, with the offer of paying half of next month's rent as a courtesy. I'm not sure whether this is
fair/legal or not, so I thought I'd ask here.

Collection and Enforcement: Is Collecting Child Support for a Child Over 18 and No Longer Isn School Fraud
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Missouri,
My question is the custodial father has continued to collect child support on 2 children. One graduated High School but did not go o to college. The older child moved out and has a full time job.
The younger child (17) moved back in with the other parent, has now reached 18 and is not in school. She is also employed full time. The custodial father refused to give the 2nd child any of support but continues to collect child support over a year now. Calls to child support enforcement have been to no avail. The answer is there is no recourse to recover the support collected by deception. An abatement has been filed to stop the support on the 2nd child but he collected 18 months on the older child after he turned 18. What steps can be taken to stop this and return the undue support. There is no money for an expensive law suit. He has money to keep the fight going in court which can not be afforded by the other parent. Is this there no recourse for him not reporting the child not in school? No school records have been filed or requested by child support enforcement.

Construction Contracts: Contractor Performed Work That Was Not Authorized
My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: California
Background
I'm having a problem with my septic system and have had a contractor at my house for the past week. He never provided me a contract but verbally quoted me prices. Things started fine and I paid him for some early work. However, red flags were raised when he delayed fixing the system by performing non-essential work before getting the system back online. I was partially to blame in the first instance because I verbally authorized the work and just assumed he would do it after getting the system back online. I will, of course, pay for this because I authorized it but i determined to be more cautious going forward.
Problem
Last Thursday the contractor recommended another $1800 of non-essential work. We discussed the options including do nothing and an $800 alternative. Not only was this work non-essential but I was not even sure it was an improvement and decided in my mind that I would get a second opinion before making a decision. I clearly instructed him to not perform the work but to finish diagnosing the system. To make the point clear, I went on to state that I don't want to throw good money after bad and am looking into connecting the city sewer as an alternative.
On Friday he performed the $1800 job without authorization.
Question
According to my calculations there is about $2000 of work I verbally authorized and he performed but has not yet been paid for. There may be additional work that he performed that I did not explicitly authorize. I don't know if he ever completed the work to get the system functioning and he never quoted me any prices for fixing the essential problem because he never fully diagnosed it - or at least he did not discuss it with me.
What are my legal options?

Construction Contracts: Contractor Performed Work That Was Not Authorized
How to Respond to a Judgement
1st in foremost i want to add i know all about debt collection as i have sued and won in small claimes. This matter is in regards to a complex debt matter. I have recently received a letter in regards to a default request, affidavit,entry & judgment (sum certain) that was granted in favor of the plaintiff which is a bank i had a car loan for.
Note:1 i live in Michigan currently.
2. my initial contract with the bank that financed my car was in MICHIGAN
3.at the time i voluntarily gave up my car 4 repossession i was living in NC
4.the repo company called 1 of my family members and lied stating they were investigators trying to find me and not a repo company. My family member gave them my whereabouts and shortly after, my vehicle was then repossessed.
5. i never received notice about when where and how much my car was auctioned off because the banks obviously didnt want me to buy it at auction. My car wasnt sold at a COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE MANNER welll under market value
6) I received a notice from a debt collector to collect on the money owed from the bank. Once i sent a debt validation letter to the debtor ...i found out they gave the bet back to the bank.
7) obviously they couldnt prove the chain of title
8) i called the bank recently to gain info and they referred me to a bet collector attorney. I asked was he 3rd party he said 2nd/3rd while hesitating...
Anyways he stated that they served me back in 2015 I believe but at an old address because i was living in NC at the time and just had a child and my 2nd surgery. I told him he didn’t properly serve me and he reluctantly agreed. And i have a witness in which i will provide to court if beed or an affidavit of truth. Then i asked the bank for the dates when they tried contacting MY PHONE NUMBER and they stated they called every1 trying to get hold of me, including my old job they knew i wasnt employeed with anymore at the time. They cant prove that they called me but yet they had my same number on file TO THIS DATE.
9. i gave the bank my new address in Michigan and thats when I recently received the letter for judgment.
Questions:
1. how can i respond to it, should i file a motion stating i wasn’t properly served and the lawyer knows i wasnt served because the letter got returned proving i didnt receive it or sign for it.
2: how much can i sue for in damages for them not selling my car in a commercially reasonable manner?
Emotional distress etc
for them not notifying me of the auction date,time price it was sold for etc.
3: for me not knowing i was being served and the repo lying to my family memebers stating they were investigors looking for me, not repo. Or even calling me stating they were an insurance company trying to just take a picture of the car at my address in NC.
4: can i sue for the bank for not showing they own the debt after not showing chain of title buying the debt back from the debt collector they sold it from.
Note : with all do respect i would like an answer from a very skilled attorney in this matter that knows about debt validation requirements as well as myself. Because some attorneys don’t understand the complex of proper debt validation and FTC violations in regards to the car auction issue.
Thank you so much in advance

Criminal Records: Was I on a 5150
My question involves criminal records for the state of: CA
I recently turned 18, and got in an argument with my a**hole father. He got angry because I interrupted him while he was watching television, and came into my room and started screaming at me and standing in the doorway (the only exit). I told him I was going to leave and asked him to move out of the way to let me leave, but still blocked me in threateningly. He then disabled my car, which I have the title to under my name, so I couldn’t leave. The argument got heated, and he started grabbing the guns in the house, which scared me. He then called the police on ME, telling them lies and such. I called as well to ensure my safety, and to let them know the situation from my side.
When the police arrived, they didn’t even talk to me. The talked to my dad and then came and made me get into an ambulance. They said I would be on 5150, which would mean no gun rights etc. However, they thought I was fine so sped up the blood/urine tests. I talked to the psychiatrist and she told me I was completely fine and let me go less than 4 hours after being admitted to the hospital. She said I wasn’t on 5150, but I heard that the other codes such as 5152 etc also take away your gun rights. Was I on one of those? How can I find out? If I was, how can I get rid of it, as it was completely undeserved?

Determination of Fault: Seinfeld Parallel Parking Situation
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Pennsylvania
This involves the assignment of responsibility in a situation similar to the one in Seinfeld Ep. 39. I was reversing into a parallel parking spot when a pick up truck pulled in head first behind me in an attempt to prevent me. I came very close to hitting him but managed to sneak past him into the spot. As the driver drove away he yelled, "You came this close to getting sued". I doubt he was an attorney or anything, but that made me wonder what would have happened if I had hit him. Would I have been at fault, because the reversing car always is responsible? Or would he have been at fault for recklessness?

Federal Offset Program
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: New Jersey
My ex in in arrears about $800. She is expected to pay $18/week. On the iPhone application it says she was referred to the federal offset program. So after about a week of googling I figured out what that means and that I should be in receipt of some of that money within 21 days, but it has been about 3 months. I don’t want to “enforce” the order because she is living out of state and we don’t want to get dragged back to court for visitation and custody issues, I just want to know how to get this money if it is actually in some sort of escrow

Paternity for a Married Couple Without Consent
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Oklahoma, and Arkansas possibly more. We will see. The mother was my fiancée and left me to pursue her relationship with her husband, though she is still married technically to her first. Sh wants me to give her a car, support her financially, and rent a house for her and her violent felon fake husband/ second husband. I’ve inown her six years, she did this but without pregnancy thankfully then with her her Shane. Husband number two marri d her in North Carolina and likes to rob pharmacies, they both have extensive criminal histories but only his is violent fel Miss. She has had her three other children taken away by DHs or child or protective services for n two different states so is trying Arkansas for thiS pregnancy. Should I support her in all this, the child is mine most likely as he was hospitalized and then in jail for meth or beating her again I can’t remember which. My family has basically shunned me for having a woman pregnant that is not committed to me. Should I support her if only business and finaicwlky through this pregnancy though they still insist on him signing the birth certificate or should I just walk and tell them to leave me alone. If children or protective services get invOlved in taking the child away as before with her meth head dope head boyfriends/ exes and her be My the same, could I prevent an adoption or get custody if the state takes over. Should I care or even try when she just wants money and a car and a phone and she her from me with no friendship or anything? That’s her marriage recovery rules for you all god bless their hearts fighting in love he trenches for true love! Gotten oove em.

My question involves court procedures for the state of: tx, I entered into a agreement to go to rehab for ptsd for 3 months with my parents estate. I ended up satisfying the terms of the agreement to receive the check and now they are withholding my check and trying to add other terms to receive it.I have proof that I completed the terms of the agreement plus have the agreement in a email. Is this good enough to enter into arbitration for? The check is for more than 10k but less than 20k so I couldn't go to small claims over it.

Amazon Set Default Payment Method As Their Credit Card, Can I Dispute Late Fees
My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: California
I signed up for a Chase Credit Card through Amazon's program. Upon approval, Amazon updated my default payment method to the credit card without notifying me. In addition, I had never activated the card through Chase. I had made a few purchases through Amazon with the assumption that my payment method had not changed. I didn't get the statements, due to them being at a private mailbox (my fault). When I noticed the late fees showing on my credit report, I immediately contacted Chase and paid off my balance in full.
Can I dispute the negative credit score as a result of the late fees due to Amazon setting the Chase Card as my default payment method without me confirming the selection in addition to me not activating the Chase Card?

Evidence: 3x Macbook Damage Seeking Compensation in Full
My question involves court procedures for the state of: Indiana & New York
So this all started back in April of 2016. My ex took a hammer straight thru the screen of my 2015 MacBook Air 13.3". I filed a police report, but we just went separate ways & I moved to New York shortly thereafter.
Once in NY attending college, I decided to have my MacBook repaired to utilize for assignments.
A small kiosk in the local mall charged me $260 & we called it a day.
Once the man returned the MacBook, the screen no longer had a hole in & seemed great, but he told me he had lost screws for the back (only received 3/10) & that the laptop was having difficulty turning on.
I thought nothing of it because he demonstrated with the charger plugged in that it still turned on.
I paid & left.
Fast forward to a week ago (June 2018) & I want to Fix my laptop again. Every time the charger moves the laptop blacks out & dies. Ever since that day.
I take it to my local shop (in Indiana because I have moved back home) & they diagnos it for free.
All the connectors to the battery & motherboard had been broken & the battery placed under the motherboard.
It was out of their power to fix, so he reccomends me to another shop.
I ship my MacBook out & the new shop begins working on it. $101.89 in the end.
The man calls, says he couldn't find the parts I needed so he just manually wired all the connectors back in place & he said it worked just fine.
Upon receiving the laptop, I plug it in, turn it on (oh& all on camera too, fresh out of the box, in case of this) & the moment I touch the charger to see how good a job he did. . . . . it died same as before.
I called. Explained. Asked for a refund. He said they don't do refunds because you pay for their time, not services.
& that's where I am. An $800 laptop with nearly $400 of repairs that have gotten us nowhere.
Who can I sue? NY guys or this guy? Both? Do you think I have enough evidence? (Written letterhead from diagnosis store owner of his observance & written statement from last guy on what manual repair he did, as well as every receipt from NY to now)
Statute of limitations is good for both states.
Because they are a shop with services, will they win, even tho their services did nothing for me?
What about compensation for a brand new laptop? The store owner even said he has never seen this damage & it might be unfixable. Could I get service charges & a laptop compensation back?
Thank you
So this all started back in April of 2016. My ex took a hammer straight thru the screen of my 2015 MacBook Air 13.3". I filed a police report, but we just went separate ways & I moved to New York shortly thereafter.
Once in NY attending college, I decided to have my MacBook repaired to utilize for assignments.
A small kiosk in the local mall charged me $260 & we called it a day.
Once the man returned the MacBook, the screen no longer had a hole in & seemed great, but he told me he had lost screws for the back (only received 3/10) & that the laptop was having difficulty turning on.
I thought nothing of it because he demonstrated with the charger plugged in that it still turned on.
I paid & left.
Fast forward to a week ago (June 2018) & I want to Fix my laptop again. Every time the charger moves the laptop blacks out & dies. Ever since that day.
I take it to my local shop (in Indiana because I have moved back home) & they diagnos it for free.
All the connectors to the battery & motherboard had been broken & the battery placed under the motherboard.
It was out of their power to fix, so he reccomends me to another shop.
I ship my MacBook out & the new shop begins working on it. $101.89 in the end.
The man calls, says he couldn't find the parts I needed so he just manually wired all the connectors back in place & he said it worked just fine.
Upon receiving the laptop, I plug it in, turn it on (oh& all on camera too, fresh out of the box, in case of this) & the moment I touch the charger to see how good a job he did. . . . . it died same as before.
I called. Explained. Asked for a refund. He said they don't do refunds because you pay for their time, not services.
& that's where I am. An $800 laptop with nearly $400 of repairs that have gotten us nowhere.

About a year ago my teenage daughters accuse my husband I'm now divorcing of molestation I have three other children by this man and when they accused him I placed temporary custody with her father who was supposed to have supervised visitation but under the circumstances I felt it was necessary the same day my grandma died and I moved to Indiana with three other children my husband was arrested and sent to jail . Since then my first husband has refused to give the girls back was originally supposed to pay me child support but I gave them my house so the girls would have a place to live instead of living with his mom . So he ended up with my child support card he owed me $40,000 in back child support because he refused to pay for six years now or year later when I found out that he had the child support card I canceled the monthly payments because he had the girls and I had no money to go get them or take him back to court to remove them from him to get them back in my physical custody I had a new card sent to me he still owes me that back child support he makes $4000 a month and I make 1500 a month I'm a single mother of three and he's married with only one other child other than our two he threatens to file for child support against me if I took the backpay away from him . I'm on food stamps and Medicaid to the government for me and my three children he's not any he's not on any government assistance at all what am I obligated to pay . And what do I do about the fact that he refuses to give them back when I have full custody and won't even let me see them for a visit or anything . And at this point my 15-year-old says I'm dead to her and that she wants nothing to do with me and that she looks way better now than she ever did with me because he makes so much more money and can spend so much more money on them then I can .

What Are the Steps to Fight a 22350 Violation(I Already Got the Traffic Survey)
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: San Ramon, California
Hi All,
I was driving on Norris Canyon Road west bound which changes from 40 mph to 25 mph. I missed the sign saying that it changes to 25 mph. At the first stop sign after the speed change(1000ft after the speed change sign), there was a cop on the side street and as I stopped and continued through the intersection, he followed me and pulled me over right away and said I was speeding. He said he clocked me with his Lidar at 42mph. I haven't got a speeding ticket in a while so I didn't know I was supposed to try to ask for the Lidar readings.
So now I have a 22350 violation and wonder what I should do. On the violation notice, it says that if I want to do traffic school, it will be $433... =( I also requested for the engineering and traffic survey and have attached it below.
With the information I provided, should I attempt to fight the ticket claiming that I was driving in a safe manner and also quote that the traffic survey says that there is a design defect? If so, what are the next steps I need to do? Or should I just pay for $433 and do traffic school (I am really low on funds right now because I recently had to help out my family with some financial issues).
Thank you!

Repair and Maintenance: Can Landlord Charge for Missed Appointment Fees from 3rd Party Vendor
My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: California
I rent from a property management company, and they always have been absolutely terrible with communication. They are incredibly unprofessional as well, so I'm not sure how to handle this.
On 5/21, I submitted a request in writing for maintenance of my pool pump, as the timer wasn't shutting off causing an electric bill in excess of $400.
On 5/26, my leasing agent emailed me the information for a vendor who would be reaching out to me. And he did, but I was in Anaheim for work that week. We spoke on the phone, said we'd schedule another time once I was back in town, and hung up. I called him about 3-4 times since I came back home, leaving voicemails that remain unanswered.
On 6/20, my leasing agent emailed me saying she had spoken with the vendor and we hadn't been able to link up.
This morning, 6/29, I get an email from her again with an invoice from her company and the vendor, stating, "I got an invoice for 2 missed appointments from _________, which this will be your responsibility to take care of. Please submit balance with rent."
She hasn't responded to my follow up emails with questions and stating I am disputing it. For one, nothing was "missed." He never answered my calls and never came. For two, there is absolutely nothing in my lease re: charges for missed maintenance appointments or anything even remotely similar. I scoured it a dozen times to look.
Is this legitimate? What can I do?

Divorce Decree
My question involves a marriage in the state of: Florida
I am not 65 years old as of yet BUT, I have officially retired this year due to health reasons as well as have vested 38 years in the company. I could have retired at 30 years. My rights as a "Retiree" states that I can elect to carry over my health insurance or not (COBRA) . It was free while I was an employee but now since I retired it has a cost in which I cannot afford. I have a son that is under 18 years of age, which I still pay child support on.
In my divorce decree, under Medical Insurance (Maintaining Current Policy)….. it states..... "The Husband will continue to provide health insurance to the benefit of the minor child for as long as said policy is reasonably available to him through his employment".
Since my retirement, my x wife is going after my pension. So this now means that I cannot afford to keep my son on the health insurance, Family Plan, plus pay child support, and pay the pension to her.
Can I elect to take him off of the plan and my x wife pays for his health insurance on her own?

Child Support Arears
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Florida
My company took out my child support payments directly from my paychecks starting from 2000 to 2018. Sometimes I would be short in the paycheck of $$40 or so (no more than that ) and I would pay my x wife back then, in cash, check or money order.
My child just turned 19 and has graduated from high school. I hired an attorney to end the Child Support order. I come to find out that the ledger showed an open amount of back payments that of course I DID make, but I have no proof of. Who keeps receipts for 19 years? The current ledger on May showed a balance of $3667. I paid this amount in full. Now when I went to close out the case for the payment, the Magistrate is stating that there is a 74 page ledger which is STILL showing some gaps of payments that I would still owe.
If I didn't pay my x the difference back then, why didn't she take me to court? Oh, maybe it's because I DID pay her the difference. I am sure that if she is put under oath, she would have to admit that I did pay her.
How can I defend myself with this after 19 years??? Where are MY rights to this, if any? Thank you

Is It Legal to Have Two Insurance Policies for Two Different Cars
My question involves insurance law for the state of: Texas
I’m trying to get insurance for my boyfriends car and I am just an added driver on another insurance and the policy holder is my mother. Am I able to get his car insured under my name and still have my car insured on her policy? Or would they interfere with each other since my name would appear on both insurances?

Driver's License Issues: Why a Drivers License
My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: Wisconsin.
Why does one need a Drivers License?
If the law states “The term “motor vehicle” means every description of carriage or other contrivance propelled or drawn by mechanical power and used for commercial purposes on the highways in the transportation of passengers, passengers and property, or property or cargo. and that “A passenger is a rider who has paid a fare on a train, bus, airline, taxi, ship, ferry, automobile or other carrier in the business of transporting people for compensation.”
So if I’m not operating a commercial vehicle and being paid by other occupants of said vehicle why does one need to purchase a drivers license? Not trying to be cheeky just looking for an honest understanding of the law by someone who is a professional. I do hold a valid drivers license.

Speeding Tickets: California Hoa/Power of Attorney Use of Radar Gun
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California
1) I live in a California POA (HOA) community.
2)The association was granted the authority to implement the California Vehicle Code (CVC) on private roads via county resolution in 1980. This resolution specifically states the request from the POA for this resolution was to place speed limit signs and also clearly states "BE IT RESOLVED that upon enactment of this resolution, the provisions of the Vehicle Code shall apply to the privately owned and maintained roads in the <name of POA> Subdivision.
3) Each entrance to the community have prominent signs advising that the California Vehicle Code applies and citing the County Resolution number.
4) The current POA Rules & Regulations document state, under the Roads and Parking section, "California Vehicle Code requirements apply and are supplemented by the following rules and regulations:" followed by a list of the speed limits, and some special rules around parking, RVs, etc. A second paragraph states "Roads owned by the Association are subject to the provisions of the California Vehicle Code."
The Vehicle Code, under the Rules of the Road section, includes includes a paragraph stating that "When radar is used, the arresting officer has successfully completed a radar operator course of not less than 24 hours on the use of police traffic radar, and the course was approved and certified by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training."
The POA claims this Vehicle Code requirement does not apply to them and thus none of our POA officers that use the radar have received any approved and certified training. There is minimal training conducted by "senior" officers to new officers ("senior" being undefined, turnover of officers is pretty high).
Let me make clear I understand and completely support the POA's authority to set and enforce speed limits in the community. This benefits us all in improved safety. And being somewhat of a "Techy" myself, I believe in the accuracy of radar guns IF the operators have been properly trained and the radar properly calibrated. So my question: Does the POA, which very clearly makes the point that the Vehicle Code applies, have the right to use radar to issue speeding citations when the officers have not undergone the certified training required by the Vehicle Code?

Articles and Bylaws: HOA - Handling Unapproved Changes to Homes
My question involves real estate located in the State of: Washington
My HOA board has become aware of a number of instances where homeowners have constructed items without approval, where, if sought, approval would be denied. In many cases these are items not disallowed by the CC&R’s, but up to Board discretion. Due to the large lot size, the Board has generally become aware of these items a number of years after they were constructed. During that interval, the home may have been sold to new owners. The question the Board has is if these past constructed items can or should be grandfathered in, and approval for such items denied on new applications going forward? Does lack of retroactive enforcement create a precedent for future violations? Is there alternative action the Board should be considering?

Sales Agreements: Getting Out of Lease to Own and Paying Off Rest of Car
My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: tx,
traded a grand Cherokee for 20,000 and used 30,000 cashiers check to put on the car. The cash value of the vehicle was 90,716$ and it says amount financed was 60,239.91 which confuses me because its not including the value of the jeep. The dealership said at the end of the 36 month term I could buy the car for 36,000 .Is it possible to just pay the Boolean payment and be done with monthly payments and be out of the least so I retain ownership of the car instead of the finance company? its my understanding that leases don't lower the value of how much you pay at the end of the term, so I think it would be beneficial to buy it.am I correct?

Website Manipulators
It appears that a few senior members here have been able to manipulate this website. They have learned how to turn off their green 'online' light when they are actually online. They also changed their profile page to not show when they were last online. These members are jk, ebayuser and TG from years ago, to name three.
My question is why is this allowed by the Moderator and Admin. Are they aware of this? This website was set up a certain way to furnish certain information about other posters. If showing when you are online is an option then maybe we all should be shown how to be more anonymous as they are doing. My opinion; play by the rules or leave. We enjoy enough anonymity already without 'hacking' the website.

Heirs and Beneficiaries: Will Downs Syndrome Sibling Inherit Through Virginia Intestate law
My question involves estate proceedings in the state of: Virginia.
My parents are living in Virginia, only hold assets in Virginia, and intend to not create Wills. After the second of them dies, how or will my brother with Downs Syndrome inherit through Virginia intestate laws? There is no guardianship or Asset Power of Attorney in place for him. My parents are currently Agents for him under a Medical Power of Attorney, but that's it. If they change nothing then what will happen when the second of them dies?

Modification of Custody: Father Has Custody but Takes Care of Son Poorly
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: California
I'm a noncustodial mom of an 11 yr old boy (going on 12 in Sep.), he resides with his father in alameda county and I live in Carmichael. We have recently moved from WA to CA when his father was offered a job at TESLA. He didn't know much about his schedule at the time and now he works nights instead of days, and most of the weekend which is suppose to be my time with our son. So now visitation has become extremely difficult and expensive as he refuses to meet halfway anywhere saying his schedule doesn't allow it, and insists I pick Daniel up either in Fremont by taking Amtrak or by coming all the way to his house in union city (I don't have a vehicle). Not only is this expensive but it also eats into a lot of my visitation time as a commute on Amtrak is 2 hrs both ways. So I've been thinking of some sort of modification to the parenting plan, we no longer have anyone to moderate differences, and there are several points in the type of care my son will receive between us. To this day his father has never taken him to a dentist (he's had custody for 5 yrs) the only time he's taken him to the doctor is when he's had to update his shot record, which has been frequent enough, he's changed schools 3x in the past 5 yrs, for this school year alone he had to get 5 shots at one visit bcuz his father does not regularly take him to get check ups. His hair cuts and buying new clothes often falls to me. To boot his father does not spend much time with him bcuz of his work schedule, often when I call his father is asleep or my son has been left with one of the housemates his father just met since we've been here this past year. He's had custody now for 5 yrs, he got custody bcuz after the divorce I became homeless while he was able to live with his family and I have struggled to become financially stable for a number of years. Not sure what more info anyone may need, maybe the living arrangements? He won't have his own room with me but he doesn't have one w/ his father either. Could I at least get joint custody and more visitation at this point if not a change in primary custody? Also, I don't have money for an attorney, will be doing this work myself whatever happens, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I'm a noncustodial mom of an 11 yr old boy (going on 12 in Sep.), he resides with his father in alameda county and I live in Carmichael. We have recently moved from WA to CA when his father was offered a job at TESLA. He didn't know much about his schedule at the time and now he works nights instead of days, and most of the weekend which is suppose to be my time with our son. So now visitation has become extremely difficult and expensive as he refuses to meet halfway anywhere saying his schedule doesn't allow it, and insists I pick Daniel up either in Fremont by taking Amtrak or by coming all the way to his house in union city (I don't have a vehicle). Not only is this expensive but it also eats into a lot of my visitation time as a commute on Amtrak is 2 hrs both ways. So I've been thinking of some sort of modification to the parenting plan, we no longer have anyone to moderate differences, and there are several points in the type of care my son will receive between us. To this day his father has never taken him to a dentist (he's had custody for 5 yrs) the only time he's taken him to the doctor is when he's had to update his shot record, which has been frequent enough, he's changed schools 3x in the past 5 yrs, for this school year alone he had to get 5 shots at one visit bcuz his father does not regularly take him to get check ups. His hair cuts and buying new clothes often falls to me. To boot his father does not spend much time with him bcuz of his work schedule, often when I call his father is asleep or my son has been left with one of the housemates his father just met since we've been here this past year. He's had custody now for 5 yrs, he got custody bcuz after the divorce I became homeless while he was able to live with his family and I have struggled to become financially stable for a number of years.

Neighbor’s Video Camera Pointed Directly into My Backyard
My question involves personal property located in the State of: California
My neighbor has placed a video camera from her second story bedroom window pointing down into my backyard. Specifically where my children play basketball. There is no question that this camera is pointed directly into my backyard only. I know some cameras are used to monitor your own property and may catch portions of the neighbors property. That is NOT the case here.
We have had some previous trouble with her in regards to her being annoyed by the kids playing basketball and her stating it to be inconvenient to throw the ball back over when it goes over the fence. She has admitted to throwing a ball into the canyon behind our houses.
I have never had any expectation to get our ball back immediately...and I have told my kids once it goes over, hopefully you will get it back sometime within the next day or few days...whenever the neighbor comes across it. I also try to be very conscience about the times they play - as to be understanding that she works from home. Not too early, no screaming and not to play for hours on end.
Despite this, seems she felt it necessary to place a camera on them.
I feel this is incredibly intrusive and unnecessary. I have attempted to speak with her but she refuses to answer when I knock on her door. The local police are not much help and honestly I hate to bother them over this when I know I would rather them take care of the more important crimes! They have stated that unless it points into a bedroom or bathroom, the law is kind of grey in regards to this new technology.
What do you think? Do I have any privacy rights? Any legal action I can take to make her take it down or at least point it away from where my children play?
Thanks

Ownership Rights: Right Away Rights
My question involves personal property located in the State of: Missouri. A house that was built in 1880 has a set back of three feet that narrows to 14 inches in one area. A neighbor built a new fence that meets city codes but obstructs the right away for maintenance, even with a ladder, to the 1880s house. The 1880s house is a three story, well maintained, historic home. Do they loose right away rights for maintenance purposes because the neighbor chooses to build a fence?

How to Prevent Abusive Parents from Accessing School Records
Demographic/Geographic info: located in suburban Missouri. My high school is a public one, part of a K-12 district. I'm also planning to attend a four-year university after high school.
Hey there everyone.
I turn 18 in a little less than a month. I've grown up in an emotionally/psychologically and physically abusive home for my entire life, something that is well-documented by numerous mental health professionals and my school's social worker/crisis interventionist. I'm working on putting together my escape/exit plan, and hope to be out of my home by the end of August 2018 (I have steady employment, and am doing well in school- I essentially raised myself). Not only do I plan on leaving my abusive home soon after reaching the age of majority, but I also do not want my abusive mother to have any access to my school or medical records whatsoever after I am gone from the home & am of legal age.
This school year, I'll be a senior in high school, and will be 18 before starting the academic year. In MO, you're typically 17 or 18 as a senior, so there are a fair amount of 18 year old seniors- though the majority of them have normal relationships with their parents and live under the same roof, thus making "who has access to my records" not an issue in most students' daily lives.
I'm somewhat familiar with the process of transferring the 'ownership', per se, of medical records from parent to child upon turning 18, and it largely seems more simplified (once child turns 18, is considered a legal adult and thus in control) when compared to school records.
Legally, I know that I have the right upon turning 18 to be the sole accessor of my academic records, but how exactly do I go about the process of officially barring my birthgivers from being able to pull my records, having access to InfiniteCampus (our online grade portal), having access to report cards, etc?
I've done a bit of digging into the ins-and-outs of FERPA, and have some knowledge regarding independent vs. dependent status in regards to the parent-child relationship. When I file for FAFSA later this year, I'll be eligible to file as independent- perhaps FERPA operates in the same manner, i.e. independent status = parents are not considered in the equation. (Please, of course, correct me if I'm wrong here.)
I've looked far and wide through my school district's website and manuals in a search for info on this specific situation, but haven't found anything. I know that this is probably more of an issue that I should take up with my school's administration in specific, but I want to ensure that I know the legal rights that I have to academic privacy.
Please feel free to ask questions if you need more info in order to find a solution/recommendation. Anything and everything helps.

Heirs and Beneficiaries: Fiance As Beneficiary
My question involves estate proceedings in the state of: Iowa
My fiance passed away in 2004. I received a letter from a company in 2007 asking for an updated address or if deceased, beneficiary information. I called the company and reported to them that he was deceased and that I was his fiance. It didn't go any further than that. I'm still wondering if I am entitled to his pension because we lived together for 5 years and were planning on marrying. My question is am I too late to check into this or could I even be considered his beneficiary? I do not know if he updated this information prior to his death or not.
Thank you for your help!

Financial Transactions: Recently Deceased Husband Forged Wife's Signature on Mortgage Refi- Loans
My question involves personal finance in the State of: Texas. My husband and I have been separated, living in different cities for past 10 yrs. he died last month. I discovered he forged my signature on a first and second mortgage loan on our marital home. During our separation he lived in our marital home and did not maintain the house or property. The house requires major repairs before it can be lived in or sold. I am presently living in and paying for an apartment, also paying the 2 monthly mortgages payments plus utilities for our marital home which I cannot afford. I have already spent several thousand dollars on clearing out/cleaning the house but more work is required before its inhabitable. I'm 70 years old and cannot do most of work required and cannot afford to continue paying for help. Am I responsible for the repayment of these loans? I did not sign the loan application or contract and had no knowledge of the transaction until after my husbands death. Immediate suggestions greatly appreciated.

Changing from Straight Lane to Turn Lane
This happened in Florida. Was in forward lane and was supposed to be in turn lane. Forward light was red. Left turn signal was green. Indicated left turn waited till no traffic. Crossed single solid white line into left turn lane and turned though intersection. Cop pulled me over said it was an illegal left turn. Can't find and law saying it's illegal to cross solid white line as long as its safe to do so. Any thoughts.

Land Rights: Can Fences Be Built Within an Easement
My question involves real estate located in the State of: California. It has come to my attention that my neighbor has a 60 foot egress/ingress only easement through the middle of my property. His driveway is only 10 feet wide and he has a subsubstantial entrance gate that's openning is 8 ft wide. Due to the topography of the land he can not widen the road on the east side and would have cut into the west side hill. This driveway has been in existence since the mid 1968. My home sits 30 ft below his driveway grade to the east. So I installed a fence along the east side of his driveway for privacy and secuirty. He is suing me saying I can't have a fence in the easement. This is my property, am I allowed to use the land with the easement as long as I don't restrict his access?

What Legal Documents Are Required for an International Student to Work in America
Hello
I’m a 16 year old student in Canada. And I want to work in the entertainment industry in America (most likely California) as let’s say a minor acting role in a movie.
If I do get this role:
Would I need to get a work visa or some kind of legal document?

Deductions from Security Deposit Despite Positive Balance in Utility Fund
My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Nevada.
The property management company pays the water/sewer utility and asked me to maintain a balance in a "utility fund" to fund the bill which varies around $120@mo. They always sent me the invoice from the utility company with my running balance. On the closing statement they had taken the final utility payment from the security deposit even though the utility fund contained over $550 and provided no accounting on the utility fund refund which was very small.
The refund of unused utility fund was $457 short. The forwarding address I gave them was out of state. Now they will not respond to email and won't take my call. This is a large company that manages dozens of homes. I did a web search on the company and there are similar complaints against them for a similar amount. Since I live out of state(which I suspect they were checking for) suing them in small claims court would be difficult and the amount is not enough to travel back for. I know Landlord fraud is very common but it stings to know they just kept my money. Other than suing them is there any recourse?
Thanks

Parking and Access: Los Angeles California - Duplex Neighbors Taking Up Half of Shared Driveway
My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: California.
Hi everyone and thank you in advance. I'm in Los Angeles county.
I live in a duplex, my upstairs neighbor is currently blocking half of the driveway with a second vehicle in front of her garage which is right beside mine, the entire time I have lived here (3 years) we've been able to turn around in the driveway to park, now I have to do a 4 point turn every time I come home from work and they do not.
As far as I know the entire driveway is supposed to be open to our use, not just hers. I have ignored it for a week but finally, I asked her to move the car and she threatened to take me to court over harassment (she's and extremely volatile type of person). I have reached out to the landlord who basically stated she "cannot and should not get involved" and that we just need to be corgial or find a single family home (sigh).
There is no HOA. Here is what my lease says:
"The right to parking is included in the rent charged pursuant to paragraph 3. Parking spaces are to be used for parking properly licensed and operable moto vehicles, except for trailers, boats, campers, buses, or trucks (other than pick-up trucks). Tenant shall park in assigned spaces only, parking spaces are to be kept clean. Vehicles leaking oil, gas, or other motor vehicle fluids shall not be parked on the premises."
I've asked the landlord to define the "parking spaces" as per the obviously generic lease she used, have gotten no reply on that.
She is not blocking my garage directly, but again this is a shared driveway and she has been taking up half of it for a week and refusing to move it now. It makes it much more difficult for me to turn around in the drive way so I can back my car into the garage. I need to turn around because the very small driveway on the side of our house I don't want to back up through, it's much easier to drive straight out of it.
Thanks for your help.

Trespass: Neighbor Has Claimed My Front Yard, What Options Do I Have
My question involves real estate located in the State of: PENNSYLVANIA
My neighbor has claimed he owns half of my front yard and has installed metal spikes and rope along this new boundary. He is dumping manure, tearing up the soil, and digging on "his" new land. I pulled a copy of the deed registered at the county courthouse and survey, all showing that this is clearly my property. When I approached him calmly to resolve, he lost his temper. He showed me a "map" which he pulled from the county tax assessment office and hand marked up new boundaries, claiming this is somehow legit. He is stating it is his word against mine and that I need to hire an attorney.
I called the township police, who said this is a boundary dispute and that I need to go through the court system. I've contacted a real estate attorney and have an appointment scheduled, but it is staggering to me that nothing can be done in the interim. How is this not trespassing such that the police can remove him? What is to prevent him from destroying the property by the time the issue is resolved in the courts? It feels like we are powerless.

Transferring Title: Do I Need to Sign a Paper for Branded Title That Dealership Messed Up on
My question involves vehicle registration or title in the state of: Illinois
I purchased a used 2012 vehicle from a dealership back in 2014. I have since bought a new car in February of this year and traded the 2012 car in. At the time of the trade in the first thing the sales man said to me is that there was a issue with the way the millage came back and that there was a milage discrepancy., after reviewing the car fax, I told the sales man that it was there error. He told me that it was there error and that no worries they would get it corrected. I have now started getting phone calls on my personal phone and at my job from the dealership, stating that they sold the car and that there was a mileage discrepancy that they discovered that was actually accurate, and want me to sign off on a paper that states That I purchased the vehicle from Obrien Mits . That the title issued is branded with "not actual mileage". The odometer reading of 32,783 was in fact "Actual Milage".
That no fraud is or was intended.
Do I have to sign this? And why wouldn't the dealership be able to fix there mess up?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Auto Insurance: Is it Unwise to Switch Insurance Companies After an Accident
My question involves an injury that occurred in the state of: WV
I was hit by an uninsured driver and she admitted fault. I had a shoulder injury that will require surgery, my mother had a broken collarbone. I have significant uninsured motorist coverage and will be attempting to settle with my own company. My question is my policy expires soon and I have found a much better rate with a different company. Is there any reason not to switch companies or would it be easier/beneficial to continue with my current company until the matter is settled?
Thanks in advance.

Father Given Sole Custody
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Texas. Though it seems like none of my business it is, due to the fact that the father is my S/O. He was granted Sole custody by the judge after the mother ran away with the child to another state. It's been a few months since he has seen her and he has hardly talked to her due to the other parent not allowing it to happen. With his sole custody being granted he was also given approval to pick up his child in the other state at 6pm . My question is, is she allowed to refuse to hand over the child? There are ordered papers showing that he's holder of sole custody. We have all of the paperwork that we were told to take with us. We just want to be prepared for anything and everything .

Privacy: Can You Make an Ex-Employer Purge Your Employee Records
My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Massachusetts
Am I able to force an ex-employer to remove my personal info? I am referring to soc sec, name, address etc. I have no retirement money or pensions with any of these companies.
I have worked for 3-4 companies that use ADP payroll services. My information is still on file w ADP. Some of these companies I have not worked for in over 10 years and others it's been 3 years. I read that according to the Civil Rights Act that employers need to keep an ex-employee's info for 1 year and other sources say 3 years. ADP has told me that they want to keep it longer than 3 years - in-case the ex-employer gets audited and will not tell me how long they intend to keep it.

I have worked for 3-4 companies that use ADP payroll services. My information is still on file w ADP. Some of these companies I have not worked for in over 10 years and others it's been 3 years. I read that according to the Civil Rights Act that employers need to keep an ex-employee's info for 1 year and other sources say 3 years. ADP has told me that they want to keep it longer than 3 years - in-case the ex-employer gets audited and will not tell me how long they intend to keep it.

How Do You Block Trustees from Hiring Someone on Behalf of the Beneficiary
My question involves estate proceedings in the state of: Texas,
Am a contingent beneficiary to an estate in Texas. Over the last several years upon which I started to benefit from the estate, the trustees of the estate hired what I equate to baby sitters of my brother and I. One of which was compensated over 40k quarterly. I find this to be extremely unessary and detrimental to our portion of the estate. The people hired have zero accredition and are incompetent in doing their jobs. The way the trustees have it setup is that a portion of our distributions are locked up, due to these people’s employment. How do I put an end to them hiring people on our behalf permenately? As I find it to be detrimental financially.

Probation and Parole: Probation Drug Testing and Urine Dilution
My question involves criminal law for the state of: INDIANA
So I am on home detention for 45 days. I am off on July 18. Anyways, I am prescribed klonopin for anxiety. It hasn’t been showing up on my drug screens the past three times. I drink tons of water so I am wondering if my urine is technically dilute and that’s why I’m testing negative? Anyway, they sent my urine to the lab. So now I am wondering if it will come back dilute and they can’t test it? I’m really worried because I took an Ativan which is in the same class as a benzo. I only took one, 2 hours before my test with two bottles of water so I’m not even sure it would show in my urine?

Use and Enforcement: Private Road Maintenance Agreement to Build on Land
My question involves real estate located in the State of: SC Aiken County
Purchased a lot with cash last year, used a real estate agent.... Fast forward and I've contracted a builder to build a home but we seem to be having some issues regarding a Private Road Maintenance Agreement... I did't know even know ANYTHING about it until we started working with the builder, it was never brought up during my purchase (I assume since I paid cash??). I provided the deed that was sent to me showing the ingress and egress and we all moved forward with the contract. Now it comes up last week their attorney (not selected by me, builder incentives required me to use their chosen one) says we need a private road maintenance agreement in order to build (and there's not one on file with the county, I checked). The lender will require it. The lender just needs to be sure they will have access to my lot in the event of a foreclosure which the ingress and egress would allow correct??
I spoke with the attorney yesterday and came away even more confused, he looked it up real quick and found out 1 person "owns" the road, they've been paying the taxes. There are 3 other houses there, 2 since the 70's and 1 build in the late 90's. I have yet to speak with them about it but honestly, I'm trying to avoid that if possible.... So wouldn't all of this come out during the title search when I bought the land? I did purchase Title insurance on the land if that helps.
I know it's good to have something legal on file regarding the road maintenance but at this point I'm just looking to get the house started.... I've reached out to the attorney that closed on my deal last year, haven't heard back yet. I'm hoping he can clear this up or at least explain it to me better.... In regards to the Deed, here's what it says about Ingree & Egress......
Together with ingress and egress over and across Kimberly Lane as referenced on the aforesaid plat.
Help me out guys, what's the deal here?

Speeding Tickets: Robic Stopwatch Speeding Ticket
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: PA. I was recently stopped for speeding. The Police Officer stated I was traveling doing 77mph in a 55mph. After receiving the citation from the Police Officer, I looked at the citation and was going to ask a couple of questions. I did ask the Officer what their badge number was and the Officer stated and I quote, "I don't have a badge number Sir." I was also going to ask what is a stopwatch as I have never been stopped before this way but the Officer got in the squad car and did a U turn and left. Upon looking at the citation, I noticed that there was a few flags that popped up. The number of Miles timed stated .38 miles. The number of seconds timed stated was 181 seconds. The Officer was sitting back off of the road at 115 feet from the 1st line that went across the road. The Officer was 189 feet away from the 2nd line that went across the road. It has also just got done raining previous before my traffic stop so the road was still wet. I was finally stopped a 1.25 miles away from where the Officer was sitting at. The Officer said I was doing 77 in a 55. When the Officer clocked me, I was passing 2 cars that were going 45 mph. After the Officer left, I went back and took pictures of where the white lines are painted poorly across the road. It looks like somebody went across the road bent over painting the lines with a spray paint can. Also the guard rail across from the road from where the Officer was sitting at also had a vertical white line painted on it. This is 1 foot before the white line painted across the road. Also where the Officer was sitting at, there was high grass and weeds. I also took pictures of this as to it would partially obstruct the Officer's view. Is a Robic stopwatch classified as an electronic speed timing device as such because it uses batteries? Does an Officer also have to be trained and certified to use a Robic stopwatch for enforcement of speed? I have also been reading online doing research and are the white lines painted across the road considered to be timing strips? Any input is truly appreciated.

Modification of Support: Being Served for Downward Mod
My question involves a child custody case from the State of:
I can't believe I've never posted here before for child support? lol.
If a court summons says "serve no less than 8 days before court date" and it's served on the 9th day, does that mean I don't have to go?
I could go anyway, only because I want to see the judge laugh him out of the room because he hasn't paid me in two months and wants a downward mod. LMAO.
Also, do I have to be served personally or can it go to anyone in the house?
If anyone in the house, Can it be served to a minor child? and more specifically, what if the minor child is the child who is the subject of the support?
Thanks so much. :)

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: New York
Hello everyone. Im a father of a six yrs old being raised by lesbians my ex wife married and had a child with a woman and my son calls her “mom” since he was three years old. We got back together twice but we didn’t last two month. Unfortunately in one occasion there was domestic violence on my part because she only got back with me when she separated fom her and than got back together
Well now she being married for a year and six months with her and had a child and my son is being raise on a homosexual environment. Im seeking to modify custody to get full custody of my son based on this. I did some research and heterosexual parents usually wins.
I dont pay child support because im seeking full custody but I had to pay because the court cancelled my driver license which is not fair
I understand she’s paying all of his expenses and private school but he is my son. I understand I had the opportunity to be close to him and ended in domestic violence but it was bc she used me.
Mom says I manipulate him because i said shes not mom (stepmom)and shes not his family. Hence, mom doesnt even speak to me I had to speak with stepmom who I tried to alert her how bad of a person her wife was and she defended her by saying to only focus on my son and I just stopped conversation.
That was a year ago and I havent see him in a year and had not communicated because im not going to comunnicate with stepmom.
I want full custody and need advise thanks

Education Law Issues: Can a Private School Withhold Transcripts
My question involves education law in the State of: Arkansas. Our son has autism and was placed in a private school by us. During his time there he was bullied. It was an ongoing battle with the private school. Realizing we would need to place him elsewhere we began an IEP procress (which included the principal and private school teacher). The school stated in meetings there was no adverse affect to my child, though I reminded them of the bullying via emails with them and videos. We have since pulled our child from the private school. The withdrawal form asks if records should go to new school or parent. We marked parent with our address, since to date our son is not enrolled anywhere. The private school is refusing to release the records to us. They advised us they do receive federal money so they can do as they wish. We do not owe them any money. In fact, they overcharged us and we are waiting on reimbursement from them.

Purchased Show Dog from Seller, They Want to Renege. Options
My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: California
Details:
-Put down $1,000 deposit for show puppy over a year ago with a breeder in California
-Seller had 1 breeding that didn't take, 2nd breeding 6 months later produced 1 dog, which we wanted. We proceeded to give the seller the other $1,500 for the animal with the understanding we would pick the dog up at 12 weeks
-Seller sent contract stating we had purchased the animal. Seller provided an endless stream of text messages and emails with pictures of the dog claiming it was ours.
-Seller contacted me today to state she was no longer giving me the dog because of seller's "medical issues". In truth, seller simply doesn't want to give up the dog because the dog has turned out better than she expected, and she anticipates turning it into a very profitable show dog
-I (buyer) offered various remedies, including assisting seller with a future breeding of her existing dog while she's recovering from shoulder surgery or pick of litter should we ever decide to breed the dog.
-Seller was not willing to come to a compromise, and claims she can simply wash her hands of us by sending us back the $2,500, $1000 of which she's had for over a year and $1,500 of which she's had for 2 months
I have a contract that says the dog is mine, god knows how many text messages affirming the dog is mine. I've paid for the dog in full. I want the dog. I've been waiting over 3 years for this animal and turned down numerous other opportunities for a fur baby explicitly to work with this breeder, which I now understand to be a monumental mistake.
My question is, do I have legal remedy to get an injunction or to force the seller to give me the dog? I understand in the eyes of the law, a dog is considered property, and by that metric, the property belongs to me but is merely under the seller's present stewardship. I don't care about the money, I was interested in getting into showing. There's an obvious breach of contract issue at play here, but I want to make sure my remedies aren't merely monetary (especially since damages are almost impossible to calculate given the future worth of the dog) and I can demand my property be given to me before pushing this matter.

Debt Collectors: Asked to Pay 2.8 Year Old Medical Bill
My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: South Carolina.
I received a bill from the doctors office from 2015 (2.8 years ago) asking me to pay $1171 for the IUD birth control procedure that was done at that time. It was a long time ago so I don't have all the detailed paperwork from that time but I clearly remember getting a bill for a few $100 after the procedure was done and I paid it off within a few couple of months. I also remember being told by the doctor before the procedure that there was some Obama plan at the time that concentrated on birth control and that my bill won't be as high due to that program (that's all the details that I remember). After the bill was paid I have not heard anything afterwards from anyone.
Today I got the bill saying that I owe $1171 and it's 9 months overdue. It is not a collection agency bill or a past due notice, its just a regular bill. I contacted my insurance company and they said that they actually don't cover those procedures so they received a claim in 2015 but just didn't pay anything on it.
I know I received bills and paid some amount after the procedure. I don't think they can contact me nearly 3 years later and request $1171. What should I do?
PS: I may have the old bill for a few $100 that I paid them before and I will look for it.

52-3 Oakland County DWLS Reduced to No Ops on Person,
My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: Michigan.
My son had a DWLS ticket reduced to No Ops on Person on May 17. On June 14th he was sentenced by Judge Nicholson to 12 months probation, Substance abuse courses, 8 WWAM days, Drivers Safety Course, Random Drug Testing, and $905 in fines and costs. this seems extremely excessive for the charge. He is 20 years old, lives on his own, pays all of his own bills, paid all fines and costs, has already been on Pretrial Services since May 4,2018. We were told Judge Nicholson just does this it is how she is. Every one we spoke to in the court building says they can not believe he received all of that for a No Ops Ticket. We had an attorney he did try to argue this sentence but she was having no part of it. She is holding him on 2 violations 1. missing a test that his colors were not even called for that day however she refuses to look at the letter from the testing site it was their error and they put it in writing. 2. he worked 10 hours and drinks a lot of water on midnights went to test right after work, test was negative however again sent to a lab for ETG testing which was not even ordered he was ordered to have a UA and PBT testing. The result although negative for drugs and alcohol showed 19.8 a diluted sample since it was below 20. every test prior and every test after has been negative however she said "one can still dilute" she would not even consider that he has always had negative samples so why would he dilute. This just seems so extreme and so unfair. we were also told no lawyer will stand up to her because they have to work in her court room. i am at a loss of what to do or how to help him. he is ready to just give up and go to jail because the daily calling the testing line to see if they called his colors, working 50 hours a week on midnights and trying to do the community service, PO meetings, and all the other requirements are just exhausting. how can one judge and one court make such extreme rules. He is scheduled to go out of town for work on July 15th but because he is under 21 (21 august 1, 2018) he needs to have a parent or guardian with him. he lives on his own, his own place, pays his own bills, works his own job, he is over 18 and being an adult however they will not let him leave because he is under 21. Any advice?

Traffic Lane Violations: Unsafe Passing on Right Shoulder
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California.
I was driving back to Nevada and going down highway 58 from the I-14 through the Mojave Desert. Upon passing the city of Borax and coming into Boron the two lane highway turns into a one way highway both north and south bound. On that same stretch you near a few gas stations. I was stopped due to the light at the intersection being red. At this point I had to utilize the restroom and saw a Pilot on the right hand side of where traffic was stopped. There were 3 motorcylces driving on the right of the shoulder, and at this point the light was turning green when I decided to drive off the paved road and into the dirt road so that I may get into the Pilot parking lot. I saw the cop in the line of traffic about 3 vehicles ahead of me, but in that moment I honestly didn't realize that what I was doing was illegal. I proceeded to pass him and went into the parking lot of the truck stop. Then I realized the flashing light behind my car as I was parking. I immediately started to question if I was even speeding, but I know I wasn't I was driving super slow in case anyone else decided to make a right turn ahead of me. Needless to say he gave me a ticket. I didn't argue or ask questions, honestly the only question I wanted to ask the officer was if he would mind following me into the restroom so he wouldn't think I was trying to run off.
Is there a limit of driving that one is allotted to move pass the right of the lane? I would like to show up to court and plead not guilty, but I am not sure what my chances would be. I need some advice from anyone that has gone through the same. I know an officer in my state and when I told him the story his response to me was "the officer must have been pretty bored to pull you over for that." https://www.expertlaw.com/forums/ima...1ScFa2IWD.webp
What should I do? Do I just pay the fine and do the traffic schooling or fight for something I honestly didn't know was going to be an issue?

I didn't argue or ask questions, honestly the only question I wanted to ask the officer was if he would mind following me into the restroom so he wouldn't think I was trying to run off.
Is there a limit of driving that one is allotted to move pass the right of the lane? I would like to show up to court and plead not guilty, but I am not sure what my chances would be. I need some advice from anyone that has gone through the same. I know an officer in my state and when I told him the story his response to me was "the officer must have been pretty bored to pull you over for that." https://www.expertlaw.com/forums/ima...1ScFa2IWD.webp
What should I do? Do I just pay the fine and do the traffic schooling or fight for something I honestly didn't know was going to be an issue?
Traffic Lane Violations: Unsafe Passing on Right Shoulder
Bankruptcy Exemptions: Can I File Bankruptcy
My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: indiana
i don;t want to but we may be forced into filing bankruptcy. However, I have some questions... My husband is retired (72) and on social security. I am 64 and on social security disability which just started last year. We have a tax liability of over $10,000 that we are making payments on and have for several years. We tried a debt consolidation loan company not realizing that we would be charged taxes on all the write offs of credit cards. We thought we were doing good by using savings to pay them off. but it bit us in the butts. we still have an open credit card account for $12,000 that would not negotiate and we ran out of money. They are still trying to collect from my husband's social security income. But we still haven;t paid. We are also paying off hospital/doctor bills as we are able even though they are all in collections. in April my husband had a heart attack and 5 bypasses. We are anticipating a large hospital bill not covered by insurance on that. He was in the hospital for over 30 days.
We are thinking that once we receive all his bills we may have to file bankruptcy as we can never get out of all this debt. We still carry about $10,000 in active credit card bills that never were negotiated and that we live on to pay for medical prescriptions. Yes, we both have insurance but it does not cover all and our out-of-pocket costs are high for my medical issues. My husband and I both lost our jobs (he around 2007 and me around 2001 and 2011) We made good money and saved but it didn't seem to be enough and we used most of it on debt reconciliation and then living expense.
We own 2 older vehicles (2001 Chevy Blazer and 1998 Chevy truck). We also own our own home but have a $40,000 second mortgage on it that we are paying off. We also own a lake cottage which we are selling on land contract but we have yet to see the first payment on it ($3,000 this year and 2 $5,000 payment every year thereafter until paid for a total of $65,000). how would that cottage that we are selling on land contract figure into the bankruptcy? could they make us call the loan in and use it to settle debts before we could do the bankruptcy/
Thanks.

1 officer complaint ticket for providing false name,
1 for driving while on revoked list

Can anyone give me any advice because I cant afford a good lawyer so it will have to be a public defender. Secondly, If I decide I don't want my license back do I still have to go to court? And lastly, what am I looking at as far as punishment?

Criminal Investigations: How Long is the Average Homicide Investigation
My question involves police conduct in the State of: Anywhere really
How long does the average homicide/murder investigation take. I'm reading up on the CSI Effect where they say an investigation can take between 2 weeks and never. I know some cases a suspect is found and proven guilty (either by circumstance or confession) but I feel the people on other forums stating it only take 2-3 days to solve a normal case are exaggerating.
If any one could help that would be amazing!

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: NC
Was test driving a vehicle purchased from an auction. Car was delivered to me that had an issue that was supposedly fixed beforehand. wanted to test drive it for verification so took it for a quick spin and got pulled over. The car had a plate on it which belonged to another vehicle I did not know about. This car was for someone else and I was trying to help them out as i'm a mechanic, the purchaser has no license.
I was charged with operating vehicle with fictitious tag, misdemeanor with option to appear in court or pay the fine. Question is, if i pay the fine, will this misdemeanor still be on my record? or would it be better to take it to court? have no problem paying up but if the charge is still gonna be there, i'd rather take it to court. I called the local courthouse but they were less than helpful really, bouncing me from dept to dept and rushing me off the phone with short ended answers that didnt answer my questions
Also, does this impact my license in any way? points?

Appeals: What Documents Are Necessary to Be Transferred to Appeals Court
My question involves court procedures for the state of: Florida
I received an injunction in a matter involving my ex-wife. She filed a motion to hold me in contempt and the court entered an order in January 2018 holding me in contempt and imposed fine (which involves some division of properties we jointly had) as requested by her. I filed for rehearing within 15 days after that order. Then I paid that fine also. However, she filed another motion in March 2018 claiming that I did not fully pay the fine. There was a hearing held a few days ago, at the same time, in June 2018 on my rehearing motion as well as on the motion my ex filed in March 2018. The court rejected my rehearing motion but setup another date, in July 2018, to complete the rest of the hearing on my ex’s March 2018 motion as she requested additional time as she lost some documents on her way to court.
I am planning to appeal on the order entered by this court in January 2018, holding me in contempt.
Does the motion filed by my ex in March 2018 and any matter based this motion play any role at the appeals court OR any matter on the motion on my ex’s March 2018 is completely irrelevant at the appeals court? This is important as, in the future, I need to request the lower tribunal to transfer the required documents to the appeals court. I wish to know what documents are relevant.

Two Violations on One Ticket
My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Indiana
After nearly 20 years of driving, I got my first ticket a few weeks ago. I ended up getting two violations, first for failure to stop at a stop sign (6pts) then failure to yield to emergency vehicle (8pts). I’m still trying to decide whether I should contest the Failure to Yield, however for now my question is, if I plead guilty or lose the case should I try to contest that part, would I end up with 14 points or would I only get points for the larger of the two? I know I still have to pay for both violations and everything. But, I had read in a couple of posts when researching, that this was how it worked. But I couldn’t find anything specific to Indiana. Just wondering if anyone could answer this? I have no problem paying the fees if I violated the laws, but the points scare me, because it’s at 16 or more that a license can be suspended and I’m almost there with one ticket! I know I can do the defensive driving course and get 4 points back if need be. But I was hopeful after seeing the posts that 2 offenses on one ticket only charge you with the points of the greater offense in some other states. I could be understanding wrong, but if this is true I would feel better about it.
Thank you so much!

Online Services: Instagram: Sale of Colourful Horses
My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: Oregon
Sales can be/are made worldwide, but most commonly within the United States
I have an artist friend who uses Instagram as a method to sell artwork of custom, coloured horses, called "Original Creations (OCs)." In her Terms of Service, she states that if there is a period of inactivity (6 months) in the OC not being used (example: No newly drawn art pieces, or projects posted) by the customer, she reserves the right to revoke the OC, with or without a refund, depending on the situation.
It is a major topic that keeps springing up within her art community, debating if it is legal to revoke a creation, after its sale, for a period of inactivity.
I have the intention to make the responses public. If that is not allowed, or you do not wish to have your response shared, please let me know,
Thank you,
Midnight Mustang

Fraud: Is It a Crime to Lie About Being a Student to Receive a Discount
My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
Suppose you are not currently a student but claim to be a "student" in order to obtain a discounted entrance rate for students at a movie theater or museum. The business did not ask for, and you did not provide, any student ID or any other evidence that you are a student, so you did not provide any false or outdated document. Have you nevertheless committed a crime?

Drunk and Impaired Driving: Drunk and Standing Outside the Car
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Ohio'
My friend's car -driven by another person- struck a parked car. The officer arrived and documented both the passenger and the person standing outside the car were "highly intoxicated" but no tests indicated on the police report. Person outside the car stated she was not driving and had been in the back seat but officer documented both doors to the back seat were locked. Also open beer containers noted in front seat cup holder. Person standing outside the car had no license. Also supposedly a person nearby saw a man run off from the accident. The passenger was injured and required surgery . My friend's car was totaled.
Also my friend's had no car insurance. It seems nobody was charged with anything but reading several pages of reports the officers seemed to suspect the person standing outside the car. Can this person be charged??

Job Benefits Does COBRA's 20 Employee Condition Refer to Currently or Size at Termination Time
My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: any
Federal COBRA requires employers to offer continuing health insurance coverage to terminated employees if they have 20 or more employees. (Let's disregard states' mini-COBRA for now.) Is this "20 or more employees" referring to the size of the company at the present time (at the time when a terminated employee might receive coverage), or at the time of the employee's termination? Suppose a company had more than 20 employees, but then it terminated most of them at one time, so that after termination it has fewer than 20 employees; would this company be required to offer Federal COBRA?

How Can We Find Out the Her Boyfriend
Disabilities and Accommodation: Disabled on Ground Floor Noisy Family Placed Above Us Fed Up
My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Texas
Here's the story. It is long. I am desperate for how guidance with how to proceed. I am a disabled single mother of one autistic adult child and and 11 year old. I am disabled with a brain tumor of the 8th cranial nerve. I am SSD (single sided deaf) on the left and have hyperacousis on the right. Hyperacousis a debilitating hearing disorder characterized by an increased sensitivity to certain frequencies and volume ranges of sound (a collapsed tolerance to usual environmental sound). A person with severe hyperacusis has difficulty tolerating everyday sounds, some of which may seem unpleasantly or painfully loud to that person but not to others. Hyperacusis is often coincident with tinnitus. Due to my hyperacousis, I also suffer with severe anxiety and panic attacks. This is triggered by noise and hearing more than one sound at a time and in turn causes confusion, dizziness, and anxiety, panic attacks. I also suffer from severe debilitating spinal stenosis. I can not walk very long and I am not supposed use stairs. My daughter is autistic and she has the same sound sensitivity due to being autistic. She also suffers with severe anxiety and panic attacks.
We moved into a brand new apartment complex on December 20, 2017 on the ground floor. It is government subsidized. When we moved in, we informed the management of our health conditions. On January 31, 2018, a family moved in above us. This family has a young child. Since the day of move in, the child has been constantly running back and forth, pushing furniture, dragging furniture, knocking things down, etc. I spoke to management. When speaking with management, they asked if I had talked to my neighbors. I said no. They said it would be a good idea if I spoke with them first. I really don't like approaching people I don't know about something like this. I could not take it anymore, so I went upstairs and even brought some clothes to offer that was going to be donated to see if they could use them. I was very polite and told them of our health conditions. I explained that I cannot take the noise and that I am very stressed. My daughter has had several meltdowns from the noise. The lady was very nice and told me that if there is any noise bothering us to let her know. The noise stopped right after I went up and that night was ok. It started again in the morning. This continued for another few weeks. I decided I would let them know for the second time how this is bothering me. So I kindly let them know again. It stopped and restarted again. I let a few weeks pass again. Still no change. I was trying to relax one day and could not. I went upstairs for the third time to ask them to please stop. These people have a blatant disregard for us below. It is complete disrespect. I've been up there to speak with them three times. I have spine issues and I cannot keep walking up and down stairs. My daughter got very upset and she banged on the ceiling. I told the management this and they were like well if it works....good. I have decided that I will try one last thing. I will write a nice letter explaining how and why the noise affects us and to please cease with the noise. I will also mention that this will be my last communication. I have informed them kindly about this and they continue to disregard us. I have a friend in real estate that I told her about this. She said that I have a right to ask for another apartment. I would like this, however feel we should not have to move. My 11 year old son does not want to to report them. He is afraid for his safety. My son should not have to feel like this. This is absolutely crazy to live like this. I have decided to write to someone here as well as call the Tenant's Council Monday morning. We do not know how to deal with this. We are afraid of retaliation. It has been tormenting us for too long.
Please advise.
Sincere thanks :)

Successor Trustee
My question involves estate proceedings in the state of: arizona
A successor trustee is supposed to resign if s/he can't do the work, not hire/name someone else to do it in his stead.
If the next trustee discovers that the previous one DID hire/name some one else, what recourse do they have to remove that person and take care of the estate? How would they go about it? Would that be worth time and money, as the estate itself is small--less than 500K?
