Without seeing the bank account information and car titles I can't guess as to the ultimate outcome of the suits, but you can sue anyone for anything. I am guessing that the bank accounts were joint with right of survivorship accounts and if so then they pass outside of the estate, the car is... View More

Yes, but there are some steps you will likely need to follow. You are likely in a bailment situation where you will be required to take reasonable care of his property for some period of time and to provide him with formal notice to make arrangements to pick it up. If so, typically 30 days is... View More

If the persons who are legally obligated on the lease have a written lease agreement, that agreement controls. Typically that written agreement says how many people can occupy the premises and who is authorized to reside there. That written agreement states how changes can be made. So, your first... View More
Essentially I was promised the same type of equity the owner had as part of my total compensation. This is in writing through emails and recorded conversations.

It depends. The primary issue will be what does the written document say about the "equity" and the effect your termination has on it. You should consult with an employment attorney as soon as possible.

This is the functional equivalent of asking us to teach you how to rebuild your car's transmission if you aren't a mechanic. There is simply too much information to covey in a forum like this. Your best bet is to consult with a local attorney. That said, in essence a 50 (c) usually... View More

I had a question about jurisdiction that I was hoping you could help me with. Long story short - my son's father filed for custody in one county. I live in another county.

Asking the question in a different way isn't going to yield different results. Without seeing the paperwork, our best guess is going to be - who knows. You say the child support was voluntary but then mention Orders and Motions -which indicates you likely are not using the correct... View More

Typically jurisdiction is where the child has primarily resided for the last six months. If you had court ordered child support, the order likely would have stated where jurisdiction is and that would likely still be proper assuming the child did not primarily reside anywhere else for more than...

Frankly, yes I want his arrest to be a problem for him. We're fighting for custody so isn't that the game we're playing? "I'm better fit than you" No blame-game here (I made the decisions that led me here) but he is painting a inaccurate picture. Simply put - in the... View More

If he was charged but not found guilty, that isn't really a problem for him. Courts care about convictions, and sometimes about pending charges, but don't care about charges which were dismissed or where the person was found not guilty.

My son's father alleges that I am "on probation for felony conviction" and that is true. However, that is misleading (in my opinion) because he was actually charged with the same crime and arrested with me - just I was convicted and he was not (I was on probation so I was in a bad... View More

Essentially want you are saying is you want his arrest to be a problem for him when it is convenient or beneficial for you - this is likely not gonna fly with the Court. Another way to think of it is, regardless of what you believe to be true, do you really want to present evidence in court that... View More

A North Carolina attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. It can depend on the region, as different cities or towns can have different ordinances. Further, there could be conditions in DMV inspections in some states. Good luck

They marketed it as a completely new event, changed the price, and refuse to offer deposits back. They have offered other options such as transferring it to next year, pay for the new event, or lose your deposit. It seems pretty reasonable that you should get your money back if they cancel an...

This new world comes with new problems. Without knowing about the event, the terms and conditions related to the deposit, or any agreements you have with the event, it is very tough to give you an answer. An example may help.
