balcony door and stateroom door was opened and the wind tunnel effect opened the closet door violently onto my head, face and eye. There was a sign on the door that indicated not to open both doors at the same time but nothing about the closet door opening and injuring someone. Closet door was very... Read more »

Im a liveaboard at a marina in Contra Costa County, California. The owner of the marina violated the current law which says no liveaboards in Contra Costa and has a number of tenants living on their boats at his marina. Due to one tenant causing problems with other tenant, the marine sheriff have... Read more »
This is not an admiralty or maritime question. Best check State landlord tenant laws.
Based on the limited facts, any admiralty/maritime issues involved were not clear.

I am being deprived my due process
Additional information is needed. Due process is a broad area and the manner in which your rights are being violated is not clear from the facts at hand.

I went shopping at Wal-Mart last month and purchased a keyboard along with 3 other items. I went thru self checkout and paid for my items. Upon leaving the store an employee said something to me which I couldn't hear since I had headphones in watching a video. I walked to my car and headed home. 2... Read more »
Walmart may have a video. Also if you know which register and the time you probably can get the computer records of Payments.
Hire a lawyer who can help you obtain them
At bottom of ticket, it states "no signature required pursuant to 32-1-4(a)", but that code appears to be stating that the violator would be deemed to have given a written Bond to appear, not waiving officers' need to sign the complaint. Violated Montg. Municipal Ord. 1-9 adopted 32-6-65
This was posted under Admiralty/Maritime, but I was unable to find anything under maritime laws pertaining to the listed statute(s). It looks like it involves violation of a Montgomery Municipal Ordinance. Consult with an Alabama attorney, as it probably requires a prompt response/appearance where... Read more »
Can he arrest him while the ship is in international water? The ship is registered in Liberia.
The officer should call ahead and make arrangements for arrest once the vessel hits port in Hawaii. Arrests are fairly common upon arrivals. Also, during the period before reaching port the validity of the warrant can be confirmed. There are often mistakes in the system and the warrant must be... Read more »
So I sold my boat and promised new owner the slip as well since it was fully paid for the remainder of the summer season. As suggested by the owner of the marina stating that it would be more appealing when selling a boat. So now that boat its sold the marina's owner is no where to be found for me... Read more »
This does not involve maritime law or admiralty. You need to consult with a local attorney about breach of contract issues
When I go to court? I am wondering about the fine and the consequences of a class 3 misdemeanor
This is something that needs to be discussed with a Virginia attorney who practices criminal law. Good luck

If you are the seller (transferring the llc to the buyer) what are you required to do and when? If you are the seller what are you required to do an when? I.e. register the llc in your name, etc...
Depending on the size of the vessel, this can be a complex transaction that can involve state-specific laws in a number of different areas. It is something that needs to be discussed in detail with an attorney who practices in the jurisdiction. Good luck.

We are defrauded at birth and made a corporation under Admiralty Law.
The registration of live births in America and throughout the former British Empire, most of Europe, is used not to simply record the birth of babies, but to name commercial "vessels" after those babies. This... Read more »
This does not appear to be something the average maritime practitioner dealing with ship collision, ship arrest, Jones Act, cruise ship, boating accident, or salvage cases would know about. A tax attorney might have deeper insight.

Sorry, but this does not sound like a maritime question. Also, the naming in issue did not come through. Please try trademark and copy write experts. Thank you and best regards. Tom Evans Maritime Lawyer Please see Justia disclaimer.
This question needs to be presented to a tax attorney - try to repost, adding Tax Law as a category.
Tim Akpinar
Unfortunately, the federal appellate courts have cancelled that out in maritime cases. They apply a watered-down “reasonable care” standard instead.
That reasonable care standard applied in maritime law is prevalent in tort law in general. If you have a case pending, your attorney could outline for you why the protection afforded by the standard is not a weak one, if it is examined thoroughly by an experienced maritime practitioner. If your... Read more »
In terms of templates, it could depend on the preferences of the Nevada broker handling the sale. While they could be similar in general characteristics and basic issues covered, templates could differ from broker to broker.

In October 2018, I sold my California LLC which only asset was a boat (wholly owned by my single owner/manager CA S corp). Licensed yacht brokers handled the sale through a maritime attorney. The deal was a straight up deal, llc for cash. The same maritime attorney represented both buyer and... Read more »
You are sailing in unchartered waters--at least for me. In addition, there are some important facts missing from you question that prevent lawyers from advising you. Finally, competent lawyers do not answer questions about what might happen in the future. Too many possibilities.
I would like to know if I could use Idaho vehicle codes in California and vice verse since its state to state.
What do you mean by "vehicle codes?"
is still in its slip not moving, can the marina be sued? So the question is about liability issues a marina might encounter
by allowing boat overhang in the slips.
annegwynn1@gmail.com
The degree of overhang could be a factor. If the smaller boat was moving, it's likely that it would be confronted by the argument that the other vessel was not moving. Maritime law applies a presumption that serves in favor of a non-moving vessel in encounters with moving vessels. The degree of... Read more »

You could repost the question simply under Traffic Tickets. There were a number of different headings here, which may have served to discourage your question being picked up until now.
