My wife's children seem to feel they have the last say as to where we live. My wife has Parkinson’s and dementia and for the most part is bed ridden. Although we live is assisted living “I” am the one who takes care of her. We both agreed long ago that neither she nor I wanted to enter a... Read more »
Not unless one or more of your children has been appointed guardian of both of you.
At my request, my mother is helping me to fill out the legal forms and file them online. Do I have to name her as a "non-lawyer" on the legal forms?
Does the form ask for that? If not, no.
They have a pre-approval for a mortgage.
I just find out they have a home to sell, this was not put as a contingency on the contract. Now their lender wants them to sell their house first....is this fraud on the my contract with them? They have 15,000 in escrow to purchase my home. Thank you
No, it's not fraud, it appears to be a mistake in the drafting of the contract. Whoever drafted it might be liable to them, but you should be able to enforce it, if that's what you're asking.
What legal obligation does the developer have not to interfere with the Quiet enjoyment and undisturbed use and enjoyment of my home? Who is responsible to insure the excavation of the land (treated for decades with insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers) does not pollute the air or water?... Read more »
The first thing I would check would be to determine what stage of the permitting process the proposal is at. Check with your local zoning authorities.
While technically writing graffiti on his car may be a criminal act, if can be easily cleaned the police probably aren't going to do anything about it. Why not ask them?
they quoted: Under Article 113 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act, saying "If you wish to assert dissenters’ rights, you must deliver to the Company, no later than [30 DAYS AFTER NOTICE]" which has expired.. I'm curious if someone sends a notice saying you have 30 days and... Read more »
If it's a Colorado corporation, you probably should ask your question in Justia > Ask a Lawyer > Colorado.
I filed a supplemental petition to modify the parenting plan and child support to reflect the timeshare actually received. (She pays bare minimum and does not pick up her days.) I served her these motions and filed with the court, but she has not served me with the proper response. All she has... Read more »
Contact the judge's assistant and ask if you need to schedule a hearing or, alternatively, if the judge will rule on your supplemental petition without a hearing.
legally binding. When I did not receive a copy, I requested through the sender to provide the cert. They were unable to and couldn't find it. When I contacted Docusign to receive a copy, they informed me the contract was voided and that there was never a cert to provide. Even though I signed,... Read more »
It the other party to the contract (the "sender", as I understand you) says that they don't have it, get that in writing. If they later find it, with your signature, get a copy of that. I'm not sure how Docusign can decide the contract is "voided", if they are not a party to the contract.
I received a phone call today from a law firm stating I was being sued by a bank for a debt from 2003. The law firm had my social security number, previously used last name, current address and phone number and advised that they'd been contacting me since March, and that collections had... Read more »
Yes, the SOL is generally four years. See:

comments from one of their own employees?
You mean sued successfully? Probably not. The prospective employer doesn't need any reason not to hire; employment is "at will" of the employer.
The local high school is somewhat near another elementary school, and many parents use the HS parking lot as a drop off point for their students. The HS PTO says this is no longer allowed. Are they legally allowed to do this, as the HS is publicly funded?
The school board would make the actual decision, but it might very well defer to the recommendation of the PTO.
It's three minor children, three mothers. Two live in SC and one lives in TX. He wants to get joint custody so that he will be able to see and care for them with no problems.
He's probably going to have to file three suits for visitation, each suit where each child lives.
It can be hand-written, I suppose. There is nothing magical about machine-printed documents, they are just more convenient. But it would depend upon the judge; he or she might insist that it be "typed" so that it would be more legible.
in 2001 i left my boat at the marina unable to pay rent yesterday i got letter to pay money
No. The statute of limitations is much shorter than that.
I moved on the 20th of this month. I paid a full months rent. When I moved in the place smelt like cigarettes, the flooring wasn’t don’t properly. There is a gap between the flooring and the walls in all the bedrooms and living room. The furniture provided was scratched and damaged. The second... Read more »
Very few rental properties are perfect. When you moved in you should have inspected the place; if you didn't you are probably responsible for the rent payments for the duration of the lease.
We moved in 1 year ago after relocating from NJ, we signed a 1 year lease with the property management company. This company is telling us the landlord is no longer using them as management as of September 22nd (19 days from now) which is our lease end date as well. They told us he won't... Read more »
Unless your lease has a provision which provides for automatic renewal on the part of the landlord under certain conditions, it terminates at the end of the year, so no, you have no right to notice of non-renewal.
They now want him to sign a medical release. Should he sign the release?.
The only reason for him to sign a release is if they pay him all the compensation to which he thinks he is entitled.
We stopped talking haven’t had any contact for months and I’ve been taking care of the card making on time payments there is a balance due and he just froze the account and took me off the account as of today. If I don’t pay that amount that’s left owed now on the account could I be held... Read more »
It's true that you probably aren't responsible to the credit card company. But, in theory, you might be responsible for your former friend for what you may have charged.
Why am I being held responsible for a stray dog and what are my rights? We have had the police at our home several times because of the dog. Animal control said they're to full to take it. The humane society isn't accepting dogs. A cop threatened me with going to jail of I didn't... Read more »
What is your question?
No, you don't. The written notice to vacate will give you so many days, depending on how frequently you are required to pay rent.
