I received a check from Collier County school Board I cashed it and that I was called two weeks later and they told me it wasn’t supposed to receive the check and now they’re demanding that I pay it back or face legal repercussions.
Yes. You knew you weren't supposed to receive the money.
The posed question is: If a comm. tenant adds an addition and the A/C doesn't carry the new space, who is responsible to ensure that it does? The tenant or commercial landlord?
That's not the way the law works. Before the first spade of dirt is turned on the new addition, all these details are specified in the contract. A/c is not required by law for either commercial or residential tenants.
I filed summary administration and homestead exemption. One of the witnesses to the will checked both boxes - one for personally knows the decedent and one for presenting license. The judge threw it out. As it turns out, there is not enough money in the estate to need probate. I was told by the JA... Read more »
Of course she isn't going to tell you. That would be giving you legal advice, and she cannot do that under any circumstances. You'll need to consult with a lawyer.
Do I respond to the probate lawyer who sent me the objection? My email address is msmini1023@gmail.com
There's no response to the objection. You have the option of filing a civil lawsuit in the appropriate court (county court if the amount of your claim is $8000.01-30,000; small claims if your claim is no more than $8,000.00; and circuit court if your claim is $30,000.01 or greater). You should... Read more »

Whomever could be an heir or beneficiary under his Will should retain an attorney right away.
that my mother willed to the trust. New wife wants share. Does she get share of full estate, or just share of his half? This was not an a/b trust, and he was able to revoke, modify, etc...what happened to my mother's half??
You will need to retain an attorney. Nobody online can read the Will or can know what's really going on.
I passed a background check to live here. 8 yrs now
You don't mention who "they" is, or what application it is.
Was given a a 15 day notice that they don’t wanna rent to me cause I asked to have it repaired
Or perhaps they want to terminate the lease in order to make repairs that would be impossible with someone living in the place. In any event, it doesn't matter why the LL gave you the notice. He did. Now you must leave.
Can a pm legally do this? Agree to renew a yr lease, then retract it?
Maybe, it depends on whether the tenant relied on the first text to his detriment.
The property containing my unit and 7 others in 4 duplex buildings has been sold. The rent shot up but I guess that's to be expected, the thing is the new owners are demanding that we immediately sign a lease. I and many of the others tenants have been here a long time and no longer have a... Read more »
Yes.
is that correct?
I have no idea what you mean by "good standing", or whether the LL sent a notice that complied with the statute, etc. Need more facts.
If you have a lease with the old landlord, the new owner must honor your lease. When your lease expires, you must leave unless the new owner and you enter into a new lease. The owner is not obligated in any way to let you stay 1 minute after your lease expires. It's up to you to find a new... Read more »
In Florida.
Well, did they? The check either cleared your bank or it didn't. If it cleared your bank, they're mistaken. If it didn't clear your bank, you still have their money. If you are located in Virginia and the property is in Florida, you'd have to look at your lease to determine... Read more »

Eviction. If you are the landlord and don't know this, you need to hire an attorney, asap. If you are the tenant, the last thing you want is to have an eviction complaint filed against you, because it will make renting anything decent very difficult for several years.
If I'm listed as deceased on the doc does the doc have to be refiled with the court?
You are being sued in foreclosure because your mother, who is deceased, had a mortgage with the lender at the time of her death. You should answer the foreclosure complaint and deny the allegation that you are deceased. The plaintiff can decide whether to amend its complaint. If you were not a... Read more »
First showing of property, three weeks ago. landlord casually mentioned he would repair anything, like electrical outlets if needed. At least 3 in one room don't work. Impression is he knew bout them and didn't plan on fixing them unless pushed and would fix them himself. Also, sink looks... Read more »
Just find another place. Do you really need to ask for legal advice for something like this?
I would like to know what they are asking for the percentage rent paragraph.
In addition to base rent, Tenant shall pay percentage rent of five percent (5%) of revenue in excess of natural breakpoint (the “Breakpoint”). The Breakpoint shall be set using an 8% occupancy threshold... Read more »
Sounds like this is a term of a commercial lease. If you are going to rent commercial space and you don't know what this means, you need to hire an attorney to represent you. having competent legal representation in commercial lease negotiations is a cost of doing business.

Can I remove these things I have provided, the (bed, dresser , tv with fire stick) since he is getting evicted and is not paying rent.
No. You have to wait until he is physically gone. Arguably, removing these items would be considered self-help, and that is forbidden by statute. (Maybe you can remove the TV, but not the bed or the dresser)
I signed a lease to move in on the 13th(its now the 19th). The landlord refuses to let me move in because he is in the hospital, and wants to be there when I move in. I'm now homeless because I signed a lease for a place I can't move in.
I went to the house to see if anyone was... Read more »
