In Delaware, the statute of limitations for filing a civil lawsuit regarding real estate fraud is typically three years from the date the fraud was discovered or should have been discovered. This means you have three years to initiate legal action from the time you become aware of the false... View More

The contractor claims to have reached out to the dumpster company and he claims they are not returning his calls. I... View More

In your situation, where the contractor you hired caused damage to your property through a subcontractor (the dumpster company), you typically have the right to seek compensation for the damages. Since your contract was with the contractor and not the dumpster company, the contractor is generally... View More
My vehicle was towed from a shipping center in new castle County Delaware, I was parked there overnight but there were no signs indicating any enforcement. There were only fire lane signs

It would appear that parking in a fire lane in PA is a towable offense. Don't need additional warning signs about towing. Probably Tow Company called by Mall Security.
This is a slip and fall lawsuit where the defense attorney is having a difficult time reaching plaintiff witnesses for deposition. So instead, he stated that he would speak to them on the phone.

He may interview the witnesses to see what they have to say. With their permission he may record the calls. Some states allow recording without permission but jurors tend to think that is unfair and sneaky. If the witnesses testify at trial, and say something contradictory to what is in a recorded...

can't proceed to trial?
answered on Dec 5, 2018
Evidence would be necessary to go to trial, but it’s possible there is evidence if an ambulance responded, you were taken to an emergency room, there was a police response, a property adjuster inspected the damage to your vehicle, etc. Without knowing what happened, it’s difficult to say what...

The results for stratysbotrys and other toxic molds have came back in high numbers. I had swab samples and air testing both done. I have contacted the county, health department, fire marshal, attorney general and not one of them can seem to help me. My landlord is not cooperating with me at all... View More

You can sue the landlord considering you were under his premises while the mold accumulated! That is a premises liability suit depending on the time frame the mold was formed.
I demanded a person that made me a damge.When his lawyer ask me what was the damge I confused and told him,by mistake, a wrong answer. My lawyer was angry with me so I suggested him to say the judge that I have a reason for my ''huge mistake''(as my lawyer said) and that reason... View More

I'm sorry but I do not understand your question. What I can tell you is that when you have a lawyer, it is his duty to answer your questions. I suggest you discuss this with your lawyer.

Can you give us more information? Which Court? What's the case about?
answered on May 12, 2014
Please explain what led the repair facility to sell your vehicle, and what notice you received in advance.
They continue to smoke in the house and we are constantly smelling smoke coming through the walls. I've called their rental company, asking them to stop. They stop for a while, then start up again. They are also on a month to month contract. I've called the rental company 2 times in the... View More

Your question raises some interesting questions. Bringing a lawsuit to recover money would not solve your problem, so the best remedy for you would be an injunction. The issue would be whether the Court would consider smoking a nuisance. As far as I know, this issue has not been addressed by a... View More

Who tricked you? What was the affidavit used for? Are you asking if the affidavit is valid, or are you asking whether it is legal for someone to trick you like this?
answered on Jan 6, 2013
The answer is "Yes," but if the attorney representing the defendant discovers that the corporation is not in good standing, the attorney will file a motion to dismiss. If the corporation fails to become current with franchise taxes, the Court will grant the motion.
The case is in Delaware

Once briefs have been submitted by all the parties, there is no time limit for a judge to render his decision. I'm assuming your case is a civil case rather than a criminal one. Judges are very busy, and there are times when it takes many months before you receive their decision. Waiting can... View More
