Without knowing a lot more information, it would be very difficult for me to answer your question.
My experience is that when the court tells you to file an additional document, they usually tell you exactly what they want. So if you received some kind of notice from the court, I urge you... Read more »

It depends what it is. If you filed for a restraining order, then many counties will set a hearing re: temporary orders. I'd say however the most common practice is for the court to make a determination regarding issuing temporary orders based solely on the papers. Speak with a local attorney... Read more »

It sounds like there was some fraud committed in the changing of the disposition agreement. You have legal rights when someone commits fraud in such a situation. I agree that you should consult an attorney for a consultation as to what your legal rights/remedies are.

Likely not. Towing laws are fairly strict and you should have the right to get your personal items out of the vehicle, including aftermarket items.
We had a trespasser on our property and when we attempt to remove him he kept resisting. We had the key but he kept locking the door back up if we opened.

answered on Sep 16, 2022
If the trespasser was injured when the door was kicked down, then yes, your associate may be liable for the injuries (your remedy should have been to call the police and let them deal with it). You should not be exposed to liability if you did nothing to injure the trespasser (unless you incited... Read more »

If you are on the loan as a co-mortgagee, then if he does not pay the full loan amount you are jointly liable to the lender for its payment. This is the case until you are taken off the loan by the lender.
