General statute of limitations for debt collection actions on a contract is six (6) years. If it is a credit card or open line of credit then it is potentially three (3) years. It seems likely that your loan would be a six year statute. Now because your loan has been transferred between different... Read more »

Plead the usury and fraud in the foreclosure action against you as affirmative defenses and file a counterclaim for overpayment.
Timestamp on video is different from what police says when crime was committed. Reports show Feb 2nd 2016 a control buy was made. Video shows it was 9/26/2009.
No. If they have the confidential informant there to testify to the actual date it happened and also the police officers, then it will not matter what the time stamp on the video says.
Only an Alabama attorney is qualified to answer your question, as it involves state law. But it remains open for four weeks. As a GENERAL matter when it comes to basic and elemental terms in statutes, their meanings often tend to be straightforward. If a matter involves the need for high-level of... Read more »
Is it a scam? It also says court info will be sent to by the USPS but has no link to any thing and it says the lawsuit like I knew about it?
Probably, but without more information, it would be almost impossible for any attorney to assist you.
For example:
1. Is the email from a recognizable email address (e.g. larry@deweycheatemandhowe.com) or is it from a nonsensical string of letters and numbers (e.g.... Read more »
Materials because it was not completed on the original date . The original date changed because of weather related situation . Does the contractor owe me the money back for materials
Yes he owes you for the materials if he never completed the job. You will have to sue to get it back but you can also get attorneys fees and court costs.
check if you signed anything that would allow them to do that.
the application may have included an authorization to do that.
In 2014 I co-signed a student loan application for my stepson. His mother and I got divorced later that year. All during the plan this “Sallie Mae Bank Inc” loan showed as being in a “Closed” status on my 3 credit reports. Now that I have completed the plan and received a discharge the... Read more »
You can contact the credit bureaus regarding this but the bottom line is you are still obligated on the note. Was it not dealt with in your divorce?

Just about any attorney could write the letter you describe. I don't know what kind of working relationship you have with the shop, but it's possible that it could be more practical to simply contact them yourself in a less confrontational manner and ask them what is causing the delay and...

I recently found out that several accounts (signature loans, credit cards) have not been paid by my (now ex) finance. Bankruptcy appears to be my only option. However, I am having to come up with the money to pay an atty.
Is litigation the same as a lawsuit? Can this turn into a... Read more »
Yes, litigation is another term for a lawsuit. If collection actions have been filed against you, then you will have been served with paper legal documents: a Summons and Complaint, either by certified mail or process server/sheriff. This is required for any lawsuit to move forward. Telephone... Read more »

How can any attorney on here answer the question without reviewing the lease, the payments and all other issues.
Did you call landlord?
Also you can only file for bankruptcy once per 7 years is this correct and how can they take my income as a 1099 independent? Is there another way to stop the creditor from taking my income other than bankruptcy?
A person who is a judgment creditor can garnish your wages or income. Remember, because they have a judgement against you -- the portion that they are able to garnish is theirs, not yours. If you have filed bankruptcy within 7 years you can't file again. They can also garnish your bank... Read more »
This is in Alabama and the bank is capital one for one judgement for around $1,200 which is being garnished as a regular employee and I have another judgment for $2,000 something that can’t be garnished because I’m already being garnished I never went to court for this. If I was as a 1099 or... Read more »
Changing your employment status from regular employee to 1099 independent contractor will NOT stop or prevent a judgment creditor from seizing part of your paycheck. In fact, changing status will INCREASE the amount of the paycheck--which should bring a smile to your judgment creditor's ugly face.
Over the weekend we were served with a wage garnishment , but the money was already taken out of our bank account in February . This is the same court case number and amount that was already deducted in the February withdrawal. We never received a garnishment letter from the withdrawal in February... Read more »
Unless the earlier garnishment was insufficient to repay all of the debt underpinning it, I cannot think of a reason why the garnishment has re-appeared. If you want to get rid of it--temporarily--close the bank account; and do not open another account at the same bank.
I wrote up a contract stating terms and conditions payment date and total amount owed we both signed but had no witness or notary is this contract legal and how can I get my fourwheeler back since we are no longer friends and I have someone willing to get it out of my name and in theirs.
It appears the contract is legal which means you can enforce it in an Alabama court.
Water damage, stained ceiling, mold, dirty air vents, exposed wires, broken tiles, torn wall paper, chipped tile, missing cover plates, an unsecured door lock. reeks of smoke/weed, no shower head, dirty kitchen cabinets...
Go back to the landlord and tell him that you will not move in until the defects are fixed. You might need to hire an attorney in the county where the apartment is located.
Purchased a sampler 3 days ago and on contract it does say no right to rescind, however this morning as I was looking through the offering in detail we realized that we would only be given access to a few properties in a few locations, not access to the vast inventory as we were told in...

My recollection is that sample packages do not have the typical recession rights as a true timeshare purchase. That being said, you may still have some options if you'd like to get an attorney involved and depending on how the purchase was structured.
