If you already own the land, you already have a deed which covers everything that is permanently attached to the land, or that becomes permanently attached to the land; this would include a house (assuming it's not on wheels). If you're buying the land, then yes, you'll need a deed,... View More

I do not know how a property would be "accidently" put in your name, or how anyone could sell property (by auction or otherwise) that they had already transferred to someone else. Take your contract, payment records and any notices you received to a lawyer for review.

If you are asking for someone to explain a particular case to you, (and presumably, determine whether and how it affects your situation), you need to consult an attorney. This forum is for general legal questions.

In general the issue in a case is the particular legal question before the... View More

The short answer is yes, you have to pay rent. Your obligation to pay rent is separate from your landlord's obligation to do repairs, and if you don't pay your rent, you'll get evicted.

There are procedures that must be followed to complain about the failure to do repairs,... View More

You really have at least 4 questions -

1) Is the original debt collectible? If it's more than 4 years old, and they don't already have a judgment, it may be uncollectible.

2) Does the collection agency have proper authority and documentation to collect the debt? If... View More

No, of course not. Without some basis for why you would ask this, there's nothing more that I can say that would be relevant and helpful. If you have a lawyer, ask them. If not, I suggest you visit with a probate lawyer in your area ASAP to address your concerns.

This is definitely a scam (clear based on several indicators) and you should not communicate with that person at all.

Lots of things went wrong here. The landlord/seller is trying to impose a penalty on the buyer, without incurring any damages, the Buyer isn't complying with the agreement, and the tenant is interfering in the contract. Buyer needs to pick up the equipment, the tenant needs to get out of the... View More

You may have a claim to to title based on the agreement, and partial performance. Talk to a lawyer in your area and bring the agreement, and your records of payment.

I have no idea how an employer would enforce a requirement to "come to work in a good mood," but they could certainly insist on certain behaviors which might suggest that a person is in a good mood, such as being polite to customers or co-workers, greeting customers at the door, smiling...

First, I recommend that everyone Always keep their own records of payments made, either by making the payments in a way that generates a record (like a check) or by keeping a copy of the payments made. That way you are never in the position of having to look for a receipt.

As to whether... View More

There are rules that govern when in-state and out of state tuition should be charged. (When I was in school, after being employed in Texas for a year, I qualified for in-state tuition - so I paid out of state tuition for only the first year, and then switched to in-state tuition.) Here's a... View More

Temporary orders won't be effective after a final decree is entered, so it doesn't make much sense to request temporary orders at this stage. Of greater concern is the terms of the final decree, and whether it recognizes your separate property. You need a lawyer to review the situation.... View More

If you are the party appealing the eviction, you can dismiss the appeal at any time.

It sounds like you have a trespass claim against your neighbor, and damages from any unrepaired trench on the property, as well as the cost of providing water to your neighbor, and possibly for the cost of installing a new water line and meter. Depending on the circumstances and expense, there may... View More

Absent a written agreement otherwise, all assets acquired during the marriage are presumed to be community property. Property acquired by gift or inheritance is separate property, but the person claiming that they are separate would have the burden of proving that. If community property was used... View More

It's doubtful that you could assume complete control of a product line of the original LLC simply by starting a new LLC, and even taking a new business opportunity from the original LLC may be problematic. Presumably you would also need to have ownership of that product line & branding... View More

Under the circumstances, you might want to consider filing a missing persons report with the police. In order to get a divorce, she'll have to be served with a citation, so you'll need to know where she is.

I can't tell whether you actually had a contract, or were just discussing and negotiating an "opportunity." In the meantime, it doesn't sound like you "lost" $800, but rather that you set up an LLC that you can't use for the deal you didn't get, and you can... View More

The appeal is pending, awaiting the Appellee's brief. After that is filed, the appeals court will review the briefs and issue an opinion. No one can give you a prediction as to what that will be without reviewing the whole case.
