Una de las partes implicadas construyó la pared medianera hace varios años. La otra parte que no aportó a la construcción alega el muro esta cediendo.

La respuesta a su pregunta depende en dónde se construyó la pared medianera. Si se halla en el terreno de una de las partes, ese dueño es quien debe asumir el costo. Si se halla en el medio exacto entre ambas propiedades (o sea, que la pared medianera toca ambas propiedades, ambos dueños... Read more »
HI, im in Texas and I filed a $10g Lawsuit against my Neighbor for harassement, I had her served the Court Papers but she declined to file an answer at all. What are my next Steps?

You should make sure the process server has properly filed the return of service and then file a proper motion for default judgment attaching the required evidence that your neighbor is not on active duty in the armed forces of the United States, and the required certificate of last know address....

You can try to contact a Magistrate yourself by going through the General Sessions Court Clerk, but you probably do not have sufficient information. You can also complain to the Knox County District Attorney General, who might arrange for you and the LEO to swear out a Warrant. Hopefully you at... Read more »

55.1-1204 Section C says Mr Sternberg is incorrect in his answer and he also says perjury and discrimination against protected classes is "irrelevant". Either he didn't read it all or he doesn't care about the law. Let's try again, shall we?

Most of the facts in your question are irrelevant. A contract for land must be in writing or it is void. Depending on where you are, a writing can sometimes be lots of things short of a Purchase and Sale Agreement on the local Board of Realtors form. I think there is one DC case in which a check...

The guy I’m trying to get a permanent restraining order against called in today and was excused because he was “sick”. They rescheduled it. I’m just worried he’s going to keep calling in to avoid the hearing
answered on Oct 4, 2022
It would likely depend on whether he's actually sick [or has tested positive for, e.g., covid]. As you're aware, the courts are rightfully cautious during these times. Your temporary orders, if granted, should remain in place, provided you're requesting they be extended. Speak with a... Read more »

A jail has a due process requirement to provide medications that are necessary. To failure to do so is also a violation of the cruel and unusual punishment prohibition in the United States Constitution. I would petition for review.
I stayed at this Motel 6 before on the homeless program and we were allow to have our pet.But they have made new rules and then Motel 6 has their rules.2 set of different rules for one Motel 6.Iam just wondering if this is legal .
answered on Oct 4, 2022
If the pet is a service animal, they cannot discriminate and prohibit you from having the service animal. However, they can likely prohibit animals that are not service animals.

Technically speaking, no, they do not. However, if the police intend to question you--and use those statements against you--they must read you your "Miranda" rights, which includes admonishing you of your right to remain silent and that anything you say can, and will, be used against you...

Some places of public accommodations want evidence that your condition is genuine. This can be in the form of a letter from your doctor.

A MIchigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. There probably is case law, but maybe not on the level of specificity described in your post.

Your question straddles a number of categories. I can only speak for the civil part; a criminal defense attorney could address criminal aspects. In my experience, it is the judge who makes decisions on dismissals. Your question includes the word "only." I can only say that I haven't... Read more »

In this scenario, I'm guessing the medical people will have a different story - but if you can prove this happened, I believe the medical people would be liable both civilly and criminally for false imprisonment and battery (at least), and potentially liable civilly for malpractice.

It would depend on what happened after the officer saw the medication and the syringe. If you are saying that the officer used that observation to extend the traffic stop for the tail light to investigate into drug possession--there may be a Forth Amendment issue here. The USSC has said there are... Read more »

In and of itself, I don't see there being a problem with a juror being an old classmate of the judge. The primary consideration for a juror to be seated is whether or not he/she is able to be fair and impartial under the present circumstances. If the juror was an old classmate of the... Read more »
My dad's car was taken for driving on revoked from a 2nd DUI he got in 2007, they never charged him & the police drove off in his car, is that legal??
answered on Sep 29, 2022
If no charge was made by the LEO's, and no Forfeiture Warrant was issued, then it is an unlawful taking. But did Dad own the vehicle? I suspect more occurred here than what facts are stated. Driving on Revoked TNDL may be a charge in the making, which can take 1 year to initiate. The owner... Read more »

If they told you to call the following day, were they telling you to call about release of the vehicle from impound?

No, unless your written lease agreement specifically provides that this is a reason you may terminate your lease early. That would be an extraordinarily uncommon provision.
