I do understand the gravity of cosigning. She makes more than enough to pay the rent. They require proof of 3x rent in monthly income which she cannot meet. I have no worries about her paying and we both have excellent credit. Thank you

Trying to find flexibility with this policy: "One member of the Oversight Committee must be present to supervise the tabulation." I am trying to see if "presence" can be interpreted as meaning digital presence / video conferencing. This is for a Rutgers University policy
answered on Nov 26, 2019

Fined me $156.00 plus costs when the maximum fine was supposed to be $100.00. This was on 3/24/2016. Thank you.

Generally this is a no point ticket but you should always check with NJ MVC the phone number is available online. Lastly the judge can always fine you from $50 to $200.00 on these tickets when you go to court.

I bought a vehicle about a year ago, inside of it had a handicap placard tag. I never threw it out and kept in the vehicle.

If the statute involves jail I suggest that hire a good lawyer traffic and criminal lawyer. Some towns and... View More
