the hoa sent a warning to the property manager/landlord about a broken blind, they did not give me the warning stating they do not have to, however when the hoa followed up for compliance they seen that it was still broken and issued a fine, which was passed to me.
Don't pay the fine. It's up to your landlord to pay it. If your landlord wants to be reimbursed by you, the landlord will have to be able to demonstrate that you were given notice and that your lease requires you to pay it.
A report from the HOA's engineer states that the HOA's replacement window and my current window is the same in kind and quality.
I replaced my sliding door and window in 2016 to impact windows (cat 5 and up). These hurricane window standards have not been changed. The condo docs... Read more »
It comes down to this: do you want the HOA to be responsible for damaged windows or do you want to assume the responsibility? If you want the HOA to be responsible, don't sign the agreement.

Consult with a family law attorney in North Dakota.
I had a special set hearing scheduled and the plaintiff filed a motion for an enlarged extension of time due to COVID 19. Can I make the plaintiff produce medical documentation if I believe they are lying and just attempting to delay the hearing?
By the way, the question contains a redundancy: "enlargement of time" (which sounds like something a physicist such as Einstein might have theorized about) and "extension of time" mean the same thing.

in the trust. I own other 50%. How can I remove him if he can be trustee. Property in FL
Yes, the fact that he has filed for bankruptcy protection shouldn't really affect his ability to carry out his duties as trustee. If you feel there are grounds under state (non-bankruptcy) law to remove him you can apply to the state courts to remove and replace him.
He wants to stop paying child support even tho Hunter’s never stayed with him longer than 2 weeks. I don’t think he’ll stay down there too long. If the judge orders payments to stop, how difficult will it be to get child support now that his dad moved from Kentucky to Florida?
If an Indiana court has ordered the father to pay child support, it would be up to that court to modify the support order, if that court finds that child support should be modified. In the mean time, the person to whom the support is payable can contact the Florida Department of Revenue to assist... Read more »
Fireworks were stolen from the firework tent I run. My employer is refusing to pay me.

The word "bedroom" is defined as... Read more »
2 time property has been up for probate having character issues with the children and they will not produce a will for my house or property and I’m in the will and my taxes are paid theirs is not I own half of their property and paid but they blocking me thru conflict
What you are trying to ask is very unclear, but if the property was transferred by deed (from the decedent who owned the property) before the decedent died, a will would probably not have any effect upon title to the property.
Their names are still appearing on the tax records . How do i have their names removed. Can i file a warranty deed to do this?
Contact the tax appraiser's office and ask what, if anything, you need to do.
Me and my ex recently divorced. Papers haven’t been signed but judge ruled. We still have a joint account, which the stimulus was deposited into. My ex transferred the entire amount to his own account and left me with nothing.
