Might I suggest that you repost this for New Mexico under "probate" and "estate planning" so you get a response from some attorneys there. It must be done under New Mexico law since there is no will to probate here.

You are requesting a legal opinion on a particular contract's validity. First, no one can do that without seeing the document. Second, this is not a free consultation, but depending on how big the contract or complex it is, this should not cost too much. Third, you need to take this to an... View More

You have a right to have written notice of rulings the Court makes. At a CMC the court usually sets a trial date and a date for an MSC.

What a great question. Seems obvious, unless of course, you are the owners of a Mobile Home park, and you want to force your will on the occupants. So, the Vehicle Code defines "Vehicle" (of course) as: 670. A “vehicle” is a device by which any person or property may be propelled,... View More

To answer your 2 questions directly, it depends on the ages of the people, and trash is considered abandoned. The bigger question here is why is mom allowing herself to have adult movies taken of her by her son, or is he doing this without her knowledge? Something else is going on here that needs...

A wise Texas judge posted on Justia: "You can sue a Ham sandwich." It does not mean that you will win. If he is doing this you may have the right to get his case dismissed by filing what is called a SLAPP motion, because what you did was an exercise of your first amendment rights. If... View More

Only if you want to practice law, LEGALLY. You have to do a course of study (usually law school) then pass a 3 day exam called the Bar exam. (interesting term the "Bar" look up its origin in old English law- nothing to do with cocktails). Once you pass the Bar exam, you can be sworn in... View More

First, you listed this in "uncategorized." If you want attorneys to review this in their specialty area, you need to list properly under "real property." Next, your verbal agreement is worth the paper it is written on, particularly with respect to a real property transfer.... View More

A California attorney could answer best, but your post remains open for two weeks. Unless dockage in the slip was covered in the sales contract, or the seller made arrangements for continued berthing as a courtesy, it's possible the facility is within its rights to order removal of the boat....

You have already done too much letting your child play with the green card, there is nothing more that you can do. His lawsuit is not going to go anywhere. What is he going to do?

What does your agreement with the salon owner say? It would seem improper for the salon owner to collect rent from you and not provide you with the access that you bargained to pay for, even if the failure to provide access is because of Government orders to shutdown. That is not your... View More
