You can file a motion to show cause with the court asking why she should not be held in contempt. The court will likely force her to enter into a new parenting plan that allows for regular visitation.

Sounds like excellent grounds for divorce. Your location says that you are in Pennsylvania. If that's the case then that's where you will need to file and get advice from a PA attorney. Let me know if you're in Ohio so we can help.
My husband and I purchased the cabin. There was a verbal agreement that the seller would help us find a mover. I told him we would need help with getting a mover the first time I spoke to him.

It doesn't sound like you were defrauded. The seller gave you the names of two moving companies. Unless there was something specific in there about him actually having to help you move, it sounds like he held up his end of the bargain. You'd be better off just contacting new moving... View More
My lease ended on 26 June. I am due to move out on 15 Jul. My previous landlord texted me with the sum of pro-rated rent ($875) for my last days on 26 June. On 27 June, the new landlord demanded full rent ($1800) for the month of July (1st - 30th). He said my old landlord was not in a position to... View More

Your new landlord doesn't understand how contracts work. The lease, in this case, an oral month to month lease, can exist and be enforceable when both parties make a promise to do a thing to the other. Your old landlord's promise was to let your rent for part of the month. Your promise... View More

As a matter of Ohio law, this is not illegal. Ohio is a one-party state for recordings, which means only one person has to be aware that the interaction is being recorded and consent to it to have the recording be legal. Her recording you at work may violate a corporate policy resulting in... View More

A prescriptive easement (adverse possession is for ownership, not use) requires 21 years of continuous use, but there are other easements that your son may qualify for. He could have either an implied easement (if the use was ongoing even prior to the separation of the parcels) or he could have an... View More

Unlikely. If there is a true ownership dispute and control over everything then the court will likely appoint a receiver to manage the company while the dispute is resolved.

No. Once a lawsuit is initiated you can go through the civil litigation process, which does not result in the business being shut down. Even if you win it is unlikely that the business would be shut down.

You may have a cause of action for fraudulent nondisclosure. This will depend on whether there was an inspection contingency in the purchase agreement that included an inspection for sewer lines, which is unlikely as that is not commonly inspected. If you are able to prevail then you may be... View More

This is municipality specific. Some cities require a licensed realtor to act as property manager. Others require nothing at all. Check the municipal and county regulations to see their requirements.

You will need to go through the commercial eviction process. Because there has been no payment, you can post a three-day notice to leave and then file an eviction action in the municipal court where the property is located. You will need an attorney to file on behalf of your company if the property... View More

Step one is to file a police report. You will likely need it as a prerequisite to challenging the debt or seeking contempt against your ex. Alert the finance company to the fraud and challenge the debt with all three major credit bureaus (transunion, experian, exquifax).

So long as you are involuntary unemployed through no fault of your own, you can request an administrative review of your child support order to seek a reduction in support. If you quit, or were terminated for cause, you will likely not be able to seek a reduction.

No. You are what's called a bona fide purchaser, which means you took possession of the purchased property without any knowledge, actual or constructive, of any other ownership interest in the property (the dog). As a matter of law, you do not have to pay the lease. You may want to consider... View More

You can't "waive" child support because it's for the children, not you. What you CAN do is seek a deviation of what the child support would be down to zero dollars. The court will likely accept it so long as everyone is agreed.
