You must review AirBnb's terms and conditions for resolving disputes. They have a process that you agreed to when you reserved the unit. That process entails first contacting the unit owner with your proposal for resolving the issue (for example, demanding a full refund), then there are... View More

Sorry to hear about your ordeal. You are basically asking if the traffic magistrate can convict someone who shouldn't be found guilty. That's the same as asking if the magistrate has the power to make an incorrect decision. The answer, unfortunately, is yes, and the magistrate is... View More

You inquiry is vague as to what you mean by "events created...". If you have been damaged/injured by the unlawful act of another, you can sue in small claims court for up to $8,000 plus court costs, and in some types of cases, attorney's fees and prejudgment interest are awardable... View More

You need to either schedule a consultation with an attorney or contact a government consumer protection agency. For the latter, you can dial 311, the Miami-Dade County switchboard, and say you need to make a consumer complaint, or contact the Fla. Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Yes. If the overdose was by medical staff, it's a potential wrongful death claim based on malpractice. If an illegal drug voluntarily taken, it's a potential wrongful death claim based on negligent supervision, but the claim would face some hurdles. If malpractice, consult a lawyer... View More

First step is to try to amicably resolve the problem. Have you spoken to the neighbor about how bad the smoke makes you feel? Beyond that, you have two separate issues, the cigar, which is legal, and the marijuana, which is illegal in Fla., unless in use under a medical prescription. One option... View More

To obtain reliable legal advice, you'd need to schedule a consultation with a lawyer to review the contract, communications, etc. Generally in this kind of situation, if the contractor says, "pay the overdue balance now, or else....", the contractor in essence is making a new... View More

Sounds like you haven't contacted the insurer to address the problem. Why not? The sole fact that your mother died should not be a reason for the insurer to cancel the policy. If there were some misrepresentation or faked signature in the initial application or renewal process, and that... View More

To add to Mr. Clifton's and Mr. Apkinar's answers, while you GENERALLY cannot re-file a case with the same causes of action after the limitations period has expired (even though a dismissal is without prejudice), there are exceptions to that general rule, such as the equitable tolling... View More

Generally, no, if there’s not a loan problem, such as the lender disapproving the loan. However, whatever cancelation terms are in the purchase contract would apply. Ask the dealer what provision of the contract enables the dealer to cancel. If there's no logical answer, the dealer is... View More

Regarding the Covid issue, possibly, if it was foreseeable that you'd likely contract Covid if forced to remove your mask, and there was no rational justification to force mask removal. That may or may not be proveable. Regarding removal from the shelter, their reasons would have to be... View More

It depends on what section of the city code applies. For some appeals of this nature, there would be an "up-the-ladder" process within the city administration. For some other appeals, you must instead file an appeal or a petition in the Circuit Court, which is more technically complex... View More

Depends on what caused the object to fly, and on the ability of the HOA to prevent it from happening. They are not automatically liable for someone, not an employee of theirs, hurling something, nor for the wind causing an object to fly if that occurrence was not foreseeable or preventable. If...

Generally, yes. The initial issue for an Account Stated suit is: Did the creditor give you presuit notice of the debt, and did you fail to dispute it? If the third party debt buyer didn't give you presuit notice, or it did give notice but you disputed it, that would be an issue to examine.... View More

Depending on the basis for seeking sanctions, the type of sanctions sought, and whether the issue is related to any issues on appeal, that may be possible. However, it is not possible in this online forum to give a definite "yes" or "no" answer to your question, which depends... View More

I assume you mean statute, not statue. There probably is no statute that is specifically addressed to fraud on the court, but there is plenty of case law (published appellate court decisions) on that subject. Also possibly relevant to this issue is Fla. Statute Section 57.105(1), which is a basis... View More

Sorry to hear about your horrible ordeal. You cannot obtain an online answer to the question, "How likely am I to win?", for this potential case or any other.
