can seller just terminate the contract
answered on Oct 5, 2022
I suppose I will answer the second question. It depends. While it is harder for a seller to terminate the contract, it is not impossible. It all depends on the contract. Because we cannot look at the contract, this question is impossible to answer. If the seller terminated the contract and you... Read more »
Will the person get anything if they separate after 10 years of being together ? What if new house has both people on the deed ?

This is a little confusing and more information is needed. Speak with a local attorney. [I litigate cases. Anything posted here must not be construed as legal advice, nor as grounds for forming an attorney-client relationship. You should seek an attorney for formal legal advice and representation.]

The selling of the property should not automatically end your tenancy. If and when it is ended -- e.g., to make substantial renovations or to completely demolish the building--you must either get one (1) month of rent reimbursed to you, or have your last month waived if you are protected by AB1482....

Now the current owners are threatening civil lawsuit eventhough I didn't know about the lien with the coast guard. I had the boat registered thorough the DMV. The broker was the one who looked up all liens against the title.
answered on Oct 4, 2022
You may be found to be a bona fide purchaser and seller--unaware of the lien--and you may not be bound by its terms. This is a complicated case, and I would highly advise speaking with a qualified lawyer.

The first step in any potential infringement action is to take a look at the product/service/method and compare it to the patent and then put a strategy together.

One needs to be competent to sign a legal document. You did not describe the extent of the injury. An action to appoint a guardian would be required if the injury made it impossible for the seller to be deemed unable to understand the nature or terms of the documents to be signed in order to...

No. That would be a private contract matter between the consultant and the hiring company.
From an auction bidder's perspective, do each of these types of real estate tax foreclosure types (for example EOS, EXE, Sale, resale, PLURIES) have the same redemption period?
I'm referring to the auctions from the Tax Code from Chapter 34. TAX SALES AND REDEMPTION, from the... Read more »

If your question is looking for a "redemption" period after a f/c sale. There is none! Once it is sold at foreclosure, it is the property of the buyer, 100% in fee simple. While there may be some other legal issues of the property you buy at a f/c sale, it is a different legal process,... Read more »

A Missouri attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. This is a complex matter.

If only mom's name is on the lease, it is likely only Mom can file claims related to the lease.
Little to no damage on the unit but the building, pool and surrounding area has suffered significant loss.
answered on Sep 30, 2022
No one can answer that in this online forum. It requires a review of your purchase agreement. You will need to hire a real estate lawyer to review it. Honestly, you should not purchase real estate without one.

No, unless your written lease agreement specifically provides that this is a reason you may terminate your lease early. That would be an extraordinarily uncommon provision.
This is why you never allow other people to enter your unit when you are not home. You should always remain... Read more »

I'm negotiating with a private party selling a used vehicle, and we agreed on a price via text message. It's a week later, and now they say they have a higher bid and are asking me to counter offer. Can I seek damages via small claims court for any price I pay over the original agreed-upon price?
answered on Sep 28, 2022
It would depend on, among other things, whether a legally-binding agreement was formed by the text messages. More information is needed, so speak with local attorney. [I litigate cases.

I want to be sure I’m protected if the buyer defaults, or fails to maintain the business. The business is a franchised restaurant so there standards that need to be maintained. If the agreement includes a down payment, would I retain it as well?

There is always some level of risk involved in every business transaction. Providing owner financing and the nature of the franchise relationship will need to be taken into account. You can't eliminate risk, but you can manage risk by contemplating these issues in an asset purchase... Read more »
If SOL expired before wage garnishment was issued is it legal to take my money?

The statute of limitation to collect on a judgment is much longer than 5 years. The 5 year SOL applies to bringing the lawsuit. You have no statute of limitation defense.
