There's a habitability problem at this senior's complex. When I report anything to the manager, she thinks I'm a problem. I have a letter with all of the details, and pictures, I'd like to send you, if I can have an email address.
Yes, they can do that. Is it legal. I would say no. Contact the nearest lawyer to you that litigates habitability issues and get an appointment. Best of luck.

You can go to the local county recorder's office and look up the deed and obtain a copy by paying a copy fee per page. If you are unable to do that, you can hire almost any real estate paralegal or attorney to obtain a copy for you. Some real estate agents have the ability to do this as well.... Read more »
You should have recorded your deed right away, so that you had "staked your claim" for the public to see.

Talk to the landlord about this situation. Unless I miss my guess, your former roommate cannot just leave and let her boyfriend move in--because his name is NOT on the lease. Your landlord will know what to do.
Yes, you need a Probate process (unless your mother used a special deed to pass you the house upon her death).

I am saddened when I read yet another story about someone (in this case your dad) who engaged in do-it-yourself estate planning and it failed, to the detriment of the intended beneficiaries. It would have been way cheaper for your dad to hire an estate planning attorney to do this right than it is... Read more »

How did he get this done without my permission and without my knowledge. Who knows how many times he's done this then puts the money back in later. The $30k has been put back. This still has to be illegal to do. Is there criminal charges for this? And right now he is stealing half income from every... Read more »

someone has to read your partnership agreements papers if there are any.
I feel I can do anything I want as long as I notify the other beneficiaries. But what form i use to do this and how i send it by mail or what? And if they dont want me to how will they let me know? What happens if they dont agree and if i insist? What is this called?
With full authority under the IAEA, you have the authority to sign a deed in connection with a sale transaction assuming you have the consent of all beneficiaries, but not the authority to make a distribution of the estate without court approval. If you do not have the consent of all... Read more »
If by quitclaim, you mean sell, then you do not need a special order for the sale to proceed. However, you still have a fiduciary duty to the beneficiaries, and you must follow the mandatory procedures, such as giving proper "Notice of Proposed Action".
Our contract specifically stated we will settle through arbitration out of court. They told me through email if I don't turn in keys by yesterday, they will start proceedings today.

This should suffice under what is referred to as the doctrine of merger, however, a close examination of the documents will confirm my opinion.
. I found two errors after the fact, i.e , 1 paragraph, the defendant was accidentally named plaintiff and another paragraph states in part "plantiff had never received from X party" It should read "other" party. Will this effect verified complaint? Do i need to amend?
No one can predict whether or how errors in the complaint will affect your case. If a jury thinks that the errors are material, it can affect your credibility, since you swore that the complaint was true.
You can file an amended verified complaint once, as a matter of right (no court... Read more »

FYI: Most written contracts are intentionally written because the parties want the contract to be "binding."
There is no such thing as a "partially binding" contract-- unless there is a term in it that says it is "partially binding." I hope that clears things up for you.
