For example, if I were to put "xyz®" company in a title or in a text IN a Youtube video, would I need to put the ® symbol?
answered on Dec 18, 2017
YouTube videos would be copyrighted, not trademarked, so you wouldn't use either one of those symbols.

Your rights here really depend on what the partnership agreement says and what powers it gives you as the majority partner.
It also depends on whether this is a limited partnership, an LLC, general partnership, etc.

You should hire an attorney to help you with this.

In this type of scenario, it would automatically become a month to month tenancy.
They did not take any action to increase safety such as security cameras or contact the police themselves. Do they have a legal obligation to take action to create a safer environment for the other tenants? If so what civil code would it be under? Thank you in advance!

Arguably, this would fall under the covenant of quiet enjoyment.
However, you should report this to the police, and also write to the landlord to fix the issue.
We clearly were under the understanding that all meant costs related directly to the home.. not their funds.

I am a Pro Se Plaintiff and am unable to find the official guidelines for "taking a deposition", and I want to depose one of the defendants witnesses prior to trial... can I do this without being an attorney, and simply just hire the appropriate reporter for the matter?
answered on Sep 18, 2017
No, you do not have to be a licensed attorney to take a deposition. If you are in pro per, you have the right to take depositions on your own, without an attorney.
Yes, you would just properly notice the deposition, order a court reporter, and conduct the deposition.

If this person continues to harass you, you can file a complaint with BRE.
