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.

You have three issues that need to be decided in order to answer this question.

1. Who actually has title to the property? Often, when I hear that multiple siblings are the owners, the property belonged to one or more parents, who died and there was no probate proceeding. All of that has... View More

Buy the book - there's no problem with what you described.

The answer to this question will be found in the documents, and your post is not at all clear what is happening.

Is the sale on a contract for deed, or has the property already been conveyed, subject to a note and deed of trust? Are the son and/ or girlfriend tenants? What kind of... View More

I suggest you talk to them and try to work it out. But yes, damage to any part of the property would be grounds for locking you out.

If you pay your rent into the registry of the court every month during the appeal, those payments will be applied towards any judgment the landlord recovers against you. If you don't, your appeal is likely to be dismissed.

There's nothing unusual about a bankruptcy trustee looking for evidence that property is exempt.

Unless you were adopted, you are not an heir. If you are not an heir, are not a beneficiary in a will, and have no other documents giving you rights to some of your aunt's property, then you have no rights to any of your aunt's property.

At some point, the county will probably foreclose on the property. If they don't get enough from the foreclosure sale to satisfy the outstanding taxes (and penalties and interest) you'll still be liable for whatever is unpaid.

Instead, you might want to look into arranging an... View More

While I agree that they sent more information than was probably necessary, you don't have any apparent damages as a result of this action, and no claim arises from the facts you describe.

The self-proving affidavit on a will must be signed with the testator, two witnesses, and a notary all present at the same time. The date on the document should reflect the date they all sign. The date the document was printed doesn't matter.

All property acquired during the marriage is presumed to be community property, regardless of who is on the title. If you're getting a mortgage, the lender will require her to sign the deed of trust whether she's on the title or not.

You can certainly buy property without your wife being on the deed, but she will likely have a community property interest in the property anyway. You can buy property with a mortgage, without her on the note, but the bank will almost certainly require her to sign on the deed of trust, which... View More

The answer depends on who owned the property at the time of your parents' deaths. If you and your sister owned the property, then your parents' death doesn't give anyone else rights to the property. If your parents still owned the property, then all of their heirs (either under a... View More

Sounds like her new landlord is in breach - which may be because the former tenant refused to move. Without knowing more, it's impossible to say what the best solution would be, but I'd start by talking to the new landlord.

If the case is pending in Texas, then presumably there's no case in Georgia in which to file a motion to compel.

An affidavit of heirship does not transfer property, but merely gives notice of who the heirs are, which depends on the factors mentioned by Mr. Cucci. It should be filed in the county where the property is located, and there is no deadline for doing so.

Protected from what, exactly?

If the refinance happens and you don't sign on the note, you would not be liable on the mortgage, however the lender will almost certainly require that you sign a deed of trust to secure the mortgage loan. That means that even if you're not... View More

If you don't own the property, your landlord will hold you liable for damages to the house. If you hurt anyone in the process, you could be liable for battery, and it's probably an assault on your wife anyway, even if you don't hurt her. Don't do it.

The lease is the contract, not the summary. Where the two conflict, the lease controls.
