It depends on the nature of the job and what a reasonable time for completion of that particular job is.
In a contract, the parties usually must explicitly agree on a firm completion date if it is important to the parties when the work must be performed. The phrase used to describe this... View More

I ordered from Ubereats for delivery and didn't receive it. I asked for a refund and they ask for a picture of the delivery. They got a picture of the ground because they didn't deliver. Then told me that it does not qualify for a refund because the order was not in the sent picture.

1. Uber Eats' refund policy: According to their terms and conditions, Uber Eats typically offers refunds for orders that were... View More

If government has strong entanglement in the business (e.g., they benefit from the business in anyway), under free speech clause, 1st Amendment, they cannot deny their service based on your review.
But, if they are private business, you have no protected constitutional right against them.
answered on Jun 6, 2024
I think a hybrid of both answers works here. They can deny you access to the business for NO REASON at all. They CANNOT deny you access for an improper reason like say, the color of your skin. Denying access for a negative review can indeed be seen like a retaliatory response and therefore, it may... View More
answered on Jun 6, 2024
In California, private businesses have the right to refuse service to customers, but only under certain circumstances. Denying service based on a negative review could potentially be seen as retaliation, which is not a valid reason for refusal of service under California law.

This sounds a lot like a scam and you should notify law enforcement, Zelle, and CashApp.
In an ordinary purchase of the used car, you would pay the money to the Seller, the Seller would sign the title over to you, and you would take possession of the vehicle and title. If you were... View More

To determine if you can cancel the burial service despite the clause stating a 15-day period, start by reviewing the contract for any exceptions or additional clauses regarding cancellations. Sometimes contracts include special provisions for unexpected situations or changes in plans.
