Questions Answered by Terrence H Thorgaard
Q: Is my daughter's father allowed to make changes to her extra-curricular activities after years of not being involved?
Answered on Dec 15, 2018
It appears from you question that he already has the right to visitation on certain weekends. If this is so, he will not have to take you to court; he can control her activities during the time he exercises visitation.
Q: We purchased 2 puppies from a pet store. One is sick with a genetic, hereditary skin disease that will require alot
It's called "Ask a Lawyer". What that means is that you are supposed to actually ask a question.
Q: How long does probate generally take? I'm visiting Florida for a week to handle my father's affairs. Is that enough time
No, depending on what kind of probate case you are doing it probably will take a lot longer than that. But in general you don't have to be present in Florida to " go through probate".
Q: I left out of state and my parents stayed in my apartment my landlord doesn’t want to add them to the lease
The landlord doesn't have to add your parents to the lease. Is your landlord threatening to evict them?
Q: Can a motion granted by the appellate courts judge, be dismissed by a bankruptcy court judge?
No, probably not. Your terminology makes your question somewhat confusing, but the order granted by the state DCA would probably not be subject to collateral attack in the bankruptcy court.
Q: How long will a grand larceny warrant stay active in indiana if no arrest is made?
Why didn't you ask your question in Justia › Ask a Lawyer › Indiana› Criminal Law ›? And what does this have to do with Florida law?
Q: If someone is being paid under the table by their employer, what are the legal ramifications for the employee?
More importantly than state law, the employee needs to know how federal laws, and particular income tax laws apply. It appears to be taxable income and employment taxes probably also apply.
Q: Is there a way to word an Easement Agreement so that the Dominant Tenant is responsible for County taxes in that area?
Answered on Dec 10, 2018
Yes, it appears that all of this can be done in a properly-worded agreement. But you need an attorney to be sure that it is done properly.
Q: If I did not sign a contract for an apartment, am I responsible to still pay fees to the property management?
What did you sign? In the title to this. you write that you didn't sign a contract, yet in the body you write "Need to cancel a lease …". Which is it?
Keep in mind that a lease is a type of contract, and that some other form of contract may apply which would otherwise require you to pay the fees. That is why is important to know what exactly you signed.
Q: I heard that a sole proprietor just files personal taxes, is that right?
Personal income tax return, rather than an income tax return for a partnership or corporation? Of course.
Q: Before the divorce, my ex wife and I purchased a home together. Our divorce agreement with the court shows that I own a
What do you mean "controlling interest" or "majority owner". Unless the property is owned by a corporation owned by both of you, each of you own a half undivided interest in the home.
In any event, the divorce agreement should indicate which of you should have possession of the home. If it doesn't, file a motion to amend it.
Q: I have my childs father on child support and he wants to open an account for our child that only the two of them have
Yes, he would still have to pay the child support, because normally child support is payable to the child's custodian (such as yourself), not to the child.
Q: My mom dies with a Nevada will with no property
No, you don't need to be concerned. It looks like the only property passing under the will was personal effects and probating a will is usually not necessary for that. As far as a will contest from your sister is concerned, it's a matter of "put up or shut up"; when and if she actually sues you, get an attorney.
If there are any mementos which you feel your sister should have, offer to give them to her, but you don't have to.
Q: I just got out an abusive relationship, he put his hands on me in the middle of the night so I left without any of my
You file for child custody where the children have lived for the past six months. That would appear to be Louisiana.
Q: I need some legal help with this situation
What "worker" gave you a key? Depending on your answer, you could probably be arrested for trespassing.
Q: How can a neighbor be allowed to build his dock on part of an existing dock past another person's property line?
Yes, your parents would probably need to go to court to order the neighbor to remove the encroaching portion of the dock. Did the neighbor get a permit for the construction?
