Yes, there is a time limit to file a lawsuit. The exact time limit will depend on what causes of action you state (e.g., which consumer protection laws you invoke). It would be rare for the time limit to be less than a year, but acting sooner is always better.

A forged deed is not valid. You can file suit to challenge the forged deed and regain possession of your property. The notary may also have liability, and the notary probably posted a bond in the amount of $10,000 from which you might recover. You should consult with an attorney because the... View More

A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. A criminal attorney should advise on this, to prevent any violation of laws involving impersonation or related crimes. Good luck
After a national bank allowed a fraudulent account to be opened in my name I froze my credit with all three bureaus and added a fraud alert. Weeks later, another national bank ignored the freeze and the fraud alert and opened new accounts in my name, along with obviously suspicious activity.

You may have recourse against the national bank that ignored the credit freeze and fraud alert. You could start by filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) or with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) if the bank is a national bank. You could also... View More
What's the outcome of relieving this charge

Not sure what the circumstances are you're asking about. But if you are a victim, your first call should be to the police. They, in conjunction with the prosecutor, will determine what charges are appropriate.

I'm unsure what you are asking. If your concern is that a call you made was reported inaccurately, that's one thing. If you're saying you never made a call, then that's a whole other thing.
The information you received through FOIA are reports, which are always subject... View More

Best to face this head on. Otherwise, there will be a warrant for your arrest.

Someone has stolen my social security card I know who stole it and that they still currently have it local authorities said all they can do is nicely ask him to mail it to me.
answered on Sep 24, 2021
The problem is, for the police, there is no proof they stole it or are using it - either of which would be a crime. Your best bet may be just to apply for a replacement card, and disassociate yourself with this person.
I need to know what to do in order to get the police to do something about this felonious crime.

A durable power of attorney terminates upon death of the principal. Once your mother died, you had no power under the POA. If you believe someone forged a document submitted to the probate court, you should contact the court.
