supreme court is pending accepting petition but court of appeals denied but is under review for the stay even after denial jurisdiction, how does that work?
answered on Jul 21, 2024
Navigating the court system can be complex, especially with overlapping jurisdictions. When your SA petition was initially granted by the Court of Appeals but later denied for jurisdiction, it means they found the issue to be outside their authority. However, they are still reviewing the stay,... View More

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but you posted last week, and from your question, it looks like you might be under the impression this is a law firm or a legal team. This isn't a legal team. It is only a Q & A forum. Don't lose further time awaiting a response. It looks like... View More

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Based on your financial situation, you could check with the Public Defender's Office. Good luck

It sounds like you're in a tough situation with the IRS. Since you've already provided proof that you were incarcerated during the years in question and reported the identity theft, it's crucial to follow up on their investigation. The IRS should not be holding you responsible for... View More

I apologize to the person submitting the question, but I don't understand how this is a work injury related question. There is no Industrial Commission office in Payson, only in Phoenix and Tucson, and an appeal would be filed there or at the Arizona Court of Appeals, again with locations only... View More
The process went through even though one lawyer represented probate. And also estate..the mediator seemed biased to the other party as this party was an 84 year old recently widowed after 30 yrs

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. You may want to repost this and add the categories of "Probate" and "Estate Planning." That appears to be the substantive area of law here.

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. Attorneys sometimes appear in jurisdictions outside their states by making arrangements with local counsel.

I am not an Arizona lawyer. However, you should respond to the appeal, a short brief on your behalf responding to original brief will do. Check the AZ appellate rules regarding format and filing of briefs.

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking.
If you discovered bank accounts that were not included in the Decree, you can ask the Court to revisit the Decree and include them as after-discovered assets.

I don't know if you are appealing a civil matter or criminal matter. Regardless, the answer is the same: You prepare a "narrative" of what happened in Court, file it with the superior court, and the other party may then object to what you've written. You need to file this no... View More
I was 18 and homeless in 1996, cutting across an open parking lot (privately owned).

It sounds like what you are probably seeking to do is set aside your conviction. While this is not entirely what you are asking, it may accomplish your objectives. A set aside if granted will set aside the judgment of guilt and dismiss the complaint. You should consult an attorney to discuss... View More

I would not file anything without first having a lawyer review it as your filing is likely a violation of the automatic stay. Before you file anything anywhere, you likely will need to seek relief from the stay in Florida.

First, I am not an Arizona lawyer. But perhaps you can file a motion requesting the court to lift the stay, for all the reasons you have noted and any other reason having to do with the appeal. But it seems like the tenant is just stalling for time, so if the stay is not lifted, it shouldn't... View More

If you are represented by an attorney, generally all motions, other filings and court appearances go through that attorney. There have times when a client files his own motions, etc. although that person is represented. But I would not think that should be grounds to strike those motions. So yes I... View More

So unfortunately Arizona law requires proof of judicial bias from sources outside of the courtroom. It makes bias nearly impossible to prove. It might make more sense to appeal the merit of the ruling instead, particularly if the judge ignored the cumulative weight of the evidence. This will still... View More
