The contract you signed with Verizon was a service contract which included the price of the phones. When you transferred carriers, you still owed for the phones. It doesn't matter what anyone told you, it's the written service agreement that counts.

I do not believe that the mentioning of your wage jn the grant app gives you any vested rights. Unless you have a written contract for a specific term, you are an at-will employee. As such, an employer can change the terms of employment at any time.

And that document should set out the work to be performed, the costs for that work, and the due dates for payment.
And then the document should state the various remedies for default in payment.

While Rent-A-Center may have remedies if you breach the rental agreement, such as repossessing the rented items or suing for the balance owed, they cannot have you arrested or jailed for non-payment.

It is unlikely you will find any such law. There is no requirement that the signature page be last. In many common contracts, the signature block is on the front and the terms & conditions are on the back.

Short answer is that a mortgage must be satisfied before you sell the house or satisfied at closing. If the mortgage is not satisfied the purchaser will be buying the house subject to the recorded mortgage lien. Please feel free to call my office if you have additional questions.
