While technically writing graffiti on his car may be a criminal act, if can be easily cleaned the police probably aren't going to do anything about it. Why not ask them?
The local high school is somewhat near another elementary school, and many parents use the HS parking lot as a drop off point for their students. The HS PTO says this is no longer allowed. Are they legally allowed to do this, as the HS is publicly funded?
answered on Sep 7, 2021
The school board would make the actual decision, but it might very well defer to the recommendation of the PTO.

Florida is one state and Arkansas is another. Laws are different in each. You might get an answer if you ask it in Justia > Ask a Lawyer > Arkansas. It doesn't have anything to do with Florida law.
He is fixated on harming me. I'm frighten terribly!

Was listed and had showings the following day. We also had written agreement by text between landlord and their listing agents to extend the lease until after the holidays (1/1/2022). Is that a valid agreement in the state of Florida?
answered on Aug 6, 2021
The landlord doesn't need to give written notice to show the house, just reasonable notice, unless the lease or rental agreement provides otherwise. And yes, a text message would probably be regarded as a written agreement.

I am unsure what you mean by "garbage digging" but there is no expectation of privacy in garbage placed outside of a home, meaning you can dig in the garbage can and get whatever you want from it.

I would look on the online docket for Escambia County. Or another county would probably work too.
Should I trust a family member taking my child to the doctor?
answered on Jun 28, 2021
It is not clear what you mean by this question. If you can trust the family member taking your child to the store or anywhere else, why wouldn't you be able to trust that person to take your child to the doctor?

Evidently the house is in Florida and you are in Georgia. Consult with an attorney where the house is located; a Georgia attorney cannot represent you in Florida litigation.
