It looks like you submitted the question without completing it. Is this someone you know? Are the police involved? As with any case, complete facts will assist in a thorough analysis of your case and any potential resolutions.
A California attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It's really up to you - an attorney couldn't make a decision for you. Without knowing anything about what your dispute involves, here are some issues that could be worth thinking about in making your... Read more »
Yes. Use a form request for dismissal.
You can contact the Los Angeles County Health Department and report the infestation. They will most likely come out and do an investigation or evaluation and take remedial steps to stop the infestation, because it is a health issue. Then you can inform the landlord of what she should have done.... Read more »
I am a plaintiff in a small claims case and I won a default judgment since the defendant never showed up. The issue is I sued the wrong party. What must I do to have the case dismissed? It has been more than 30 days since I received the Notice of Entry of Judgment.
You have 2 problems, dismissing the first case and filing a second case against the real party in interest. You can file a form "Request for Dismissal" without prejudice in the first case. Get a copy on the Court's website under "Forms" - State Judicial Council forms. In... Read more »
I was contacted by a law firm representing US Bank. For a credit card that was open in 2005 and payments made on it until 2008. A balance of 5000 was never paid. I have no recollection of this. It has never been on my credit report. It could have been opened by my ex wife. We were going through a... Read more »
it is likely past the statute of limitations but an attorney would need to review what you are receiving and get more facts to further advise you.
The answer will depend upon what information, evidence and oral or written documentation you have to support your claim for "not finishing paying a car loan". You would want to schedule an initial 30-minute free consultation with an attorney of your choice to discuss the supporting facts... Read more »
Plaintiff paid down payment plus payments for a year believing she would be paying for the car to completion then defendant took the car. Plaintiff is suing for the down plus payments made. Defendant original offer to the plaintiff included 200 dollar payment to the defendant and a belief that it... Read more »
There are many issues not explained here. A contract has to have certain specific details, but it doesn't necessarily have to be written if it's only for a few hundred dollars. If the details were properly explained in an oral agreement, then there was a contract. Not having the... Read more »
I did some work at her house. She didn't want to pay what the price was. Left the work and now she is accusing me of stealing her house deeds.
Anyone may make any type of accusations: the facts are these are just allegations.
She may call the police yet, the police will investigate that matter and in order to charge would need to gather enough evidence for the charges to be approved.
Secondly, calling immigration would... Read more »

that depends on what the Bail Bondsman wants, to secure your presence in court.

call me and I will give you the numbers of... Read more »
My car was impounded once before for not being registered. I had no issues getting it out.. it’s my fault for not having it registered I understand that 100%. I went to aaa to register it the day after I bought it but they told me I would need to go to the dmv since it was a lien sale but first I... Read more »
more info is needed.
you just added new info.......that is why lawyers are reluctant to give advice via internet or phone.
if it was not registered you bear some culpability AND if you got a citation and did NOT notice it was to the wrong person, you have more culpability.... Read more »
I had a leak in my ceiling in the apartment I rent. They rushed me out put me in another apartment but they damaged a lot of my property and a lot of it with sentimental value including an airplane propeller that my ex-boyfriend UPS to me when I got my bachelor's degree from flight school he...

This would not be an intellectual property question, but there's not really a law in regards to this. This would be more appropriately a question for the insurance company that was used to fix the ceiling. As far as I know though, most insurance companies don't give any additional value...

Couldn’t remember if I was supposedly served by summons UD around time I was severely sick or if I found it on my door as landlord had posted 2 violations of lease. Minor noise an corrected it. And stated number two. I asked. They brought number one noise complaint 3 days apart after being a... Read more »
Filing an Appeal is a technical and difficult task, even for an attorney, and you need to hire one to protect your rights. The problem is that an appeal is a "review of the record" of the trial, and what you are mentioning in your post is the evidence that you should have put on at... Read more »
And agrees to give you until that afternoon. But as soon as you leave to get the part he tows the vehicle
Unless the gas station owner was the government, this is not "Civil Rights". Sounds like you have the perfect case for Small Claims. Take all the receipts for paying to get your car out.
They didn’t offer additional coverage, knew I had nonowners & loaned a vehicle. Vehicle was damaged & nonowner policy won’t cover it saying they should’ve never let me drive away with it. Am I responsible for the damages to the car? Or are they because of negligent entrustment?
Normally "negligent entrustment" is when someone entrusts property to a third person who then injures you. Claiming to be the incompetent person to whom the property was entrusted is an interesting legal theory but it may not fly in court. You don't say how the car was damaged.

Sue them. Breach of Contract, Small Claims. Be sure to have the Sheriff serve the complaint on them.
Yes, absolutely. Once you win the Small Claims case, the court is done with you unless you have other matters, like an examination of judgment debtor. This falls into the category of "enforcement of judgment" and there are forms to do that, like obtaining an abstract of judgment which... Read more »
I recently purchase a home and hired a home inspector and had the property inspected and decided to move on with the sale. After living in the property for almost a year I hired an electrician, so I could add an outlet for my TV when the contractor saw my panel he refused to work on my property. He... Read more »
The statute of limitations for negligence is 2 years, breach of contract 4 years, but sometimes different periods apply to certain professionals, such as home inspectors. IMO you need to get your electrical problem solved first, and RETAIN THE OLD PANEL AS EVIDENCE. Take lots of photos showing... Read more »
Contractor says I need to file a lien on the homeowner but I’m not sure who is responsible when generally I’d be paid by the contractor.
Dear Unpaid Subcontractor: Your options for getting paid are two-fold: (A) a breach of contract claim against the General Contractor and/or (B) a mechanic's lien processing against the Homeowner. Clearly, you are not "required" to pursue the Homeowner (as intimated by the GC)... Read more »
Loaned a vehicle under the premise she was going to pay me for it.
You will likely need to hire a lawyer in the state your sister lives in and sue her.
