Hi, there is more information needed to answer this question properly. The State of Florida can acquire properties in foreclosure for unpaid taxes and other surplus lands pursuant to the Murphy Act. Please provide additional information.

The word "precedents" refers to reported (generally appellate) court decisions. Such decisions normally interpret statutes. So, no. Whether members are required to participate would depend on the governing instruments of your organization.

It is impossible to say whether you have a case without reviewing your contract and warranties. You likely need to follow warranty instructions.

Interesting issue, but your post is very puzzling. If your ex is suing you with counts of unjust enrichment and equitable lien, I imagine he has an attorney either representing him or advising him (if he's not an attorney himself), and if so, how can he afford that if he has no income or...

The advice that you need is obtained by scheduling a consultation with a probate attorney. If you have inheritance rights that are being disregarded, you may contest the probate case. Act quickly.

If the stay has been lifted, the original writ can now be enforced by the sheriff. No new writ has to issue or be served. The sheriff will show up when the landlord schedules the writ to be executed. It could be any day now that the stay is lifted.

You can download a copy of the document and verify that the other party has signed it. There will be a digital time stamp with the other party's signature if they have in fact signed. Follow the Digidoc instructions to retrieve the signed document.

It can but you should see a real estate lawyer to make sure that type of deed is in your best interest. If not done correctly it can cause you more money and trouble than it's worth to save a few dollars. You should also check to make sure it would not accelerate your mortgage and the total...

No, don't sign the warranty deed. And the agreement probably is not adequate either. A mortgage note secured by a mortgage is the proper way of doing this. You need to consult with an attorney.

Having been accused of violence in the course of breaking up a fight doesn't sound like discrimination on the basis of being in a suspect category (race, etc.). So, unless the mobile home park's agreement proves otherwise, they can get rid of you.

Grantee's mailing address is wrong rather than the address of the property conveyed? There's no issue if it was some sort of scriveners error in the address. You can file a corrective deed.

Vanished from where? A lawyer would need to review the deed and your LLC documents to give you advice on this matter. There are not enough facts to even provide general advice.

Do you mean Fla. Stat. 720.305? There is no 720.350. The statute of limitations on a claim against a homeowners association for breach of contract is five years. There is not enough information to determine if your civil rights have been violated because you can waive your civil rights by... View More

Yes, if your daughter is on title to the property, any judgments against her are also against the property. I have seen cases where the property is lost to the judgments of a child who was placed on title. Also, if she has prior judgments against her, they will have already attached to the... View More

You can remove him as an officer (president) by a majority vote of the board but he will still be a director. All business is conducted by a majority vote of the board. No director has more power than any other. A president just has more duties but not more authority.

In Florida, property acquired during a marriage is considered marital property, and is subject to equitable distribution during a divorce.

It is possible to take out a second mortgage while a first mortgage is on the house. The deed to the house is delivered to the homeowner regardless of whether the house has mortgage liens on it. It is not the same as a car title where the lender holds the title until it is paid off. To determine... View More

If the tree is diseased then, yes, hire an arborist. If the tree is not diseased but causing damage to your property (actual not potential) then you would need to decide if it is worth litigating. You would need to engage in pre-suit mediation first.
