You can file in California, if the terms of service of YouTube TV allow you to sue at all. There may be a mandatory arbitration provision. You are not going to be able to recover for the things you mentioned. You can recover for the money that you are actually out - around what, $400?

Hello,
This situation depends on the language of the warranty. I would recommend reaching out to an attorney to have the warranty language reviewed.

An Oklahoma attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you are able to consult with a local attorney about your matter, the short answer is that it depends on the legal theory. You are asking about statutes of limitations, deadlines for filing a legal action. In... View More
They told me they would file a warrant to have me arrested in 24 hours if I didn't pay over 2k. This is the 3rd or 4th different lawyer to reach out. I realize that I should stop responding. Is this a scam? I am getting that vibe now.

Without knowing more, it sounds like a scam. This sounds like a common scare tactic that is used by scammers.

per rule 1.710 Fl rule civil procedure, not only atty but also the client MUST appear, but my opponents atty say they only will appear.
answered on Apr 29, 2024
I believe you are mis-reading Florida Civil Rule 1.720 (b). The phrase "deemed to appear" doesn't REQUIRE both the client AND the attorney to appear. The filing of a confirmation of authority required under subdivision (e) would solve any problem; see subdivision (f).

Reach out to an attorney. Unfortunately, car shops are not famous for their use of clear service contracts. If you agreed upon a price you may be able to enforce it. More likely, you agreed to pay an hourly rate. Either way, you may need to consider taking the car back and taking it somewhere else.
Can he do this even though the statue of limitations has expired?

In order to get procedures from a credit reporting agency, you'll likely need to sue them and ask for the procedures in discovery. They will likely only hand them over under a protective order. I would contact a consumer protection attorney that is familiar with the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
