The last line of termination states upon my death this power of attorney shall terminate upon actual knowledge or receipt of written notice therefore by the agent.explain please
You are correct that the financial POA terminated on the death of your brother. If you do not have any joint accounts to pay the bills with you should notify the billing companies that he is deceased and you have no way to pay his bills. If his assets are substantial enough you can probate his... Read more »
My son was not successful in raising the assigned $150 for his Missouri public school newspaper. Upon receiving his report card, he noticed this was a heavily weighted part of his grade (1 point for every dollar raised). So much so that his grade dropped an entire GPA. I enquired with a few...

You raise a valid point. But the school would probably argue that it was not taking money, but basing performance on raising funds for a project. The other parents may have seen the dilemma and decided it would be easier to simply pay the money and be done with it. The problem is that it would cost... Read more »
Yes some states require a valid picture ID like an unexpired passport with photo id. For the immigrant spouse.
There is a loan company in a near town that repetitively sends me adds in the mail that I have on a number of occasions asked to stop sending me adds, I have asked them a number of times to remove my address and they still have not.
You can sue for unsolicited calls, text messages, and junk faxes under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) because it provides a "private right of action."

Any possibility of a case due to the xray techs negligence
I hope your infant is okay. It's possible there could be grounds for a case, but that would depend on what a medical examination shows. Thankfully, the injuries here appear to be minor in nature; I hope that's the extent of it. These cases can be difficult because unlike older claimants, infants... Read more »
I was told that only the prosecutor can pursue the person who sued me in civil case and lied under oath, because perjury is a crime.
If that is true, how can I be sued for a CRIME, if not by the PROSECUTOR, in CRIMINAL Court????
Ok. To try to be clearer.... OJ Simpson was tried for... Read more »
I’m not following your post. Perjury is a crime and you seem to understand that a prosecutor prosecutes criminal cases. Some acts can be pursued both civilly and criminally. Think OJ Simpson.
My landlord violated our lease agreement on several things.
You should do some internet research to locate an attorney near you who does free consultations. You should be able to find out your options with a short meeting.

Whether you are an independent contractor or an employee, it sounds like you are owed money. Your options are to try to get paid on your own, file suit on your own, or hire an attorney to try to get you paid or to file suit.
I was in a child custody case.
My husband passed away and his family legally by default got temporary custody and my daughter saying that I was a drug addict I was not a good mom because of my drug use. I had all clean UA's to clean hair follicles and they dismissed the case before trial... Read more »
Contact an attorney in your area, put down a substantial sum, and go for it.
First of all the liens are approx 10 years old. Secondly, they are for credit card debt in only my wife's name. I would like to know how to get those removed. The property is in both our names and has been for 28 years in springfield missouri. The liens are from judgements against my wife. I was... Read more »
It sounds like you already received good legal advice. It the judgment has not attached as a lien, then there’s no lien to remove.
Their is no longer any contact. Shes under 18..
Assuming you mean transfer on death (and not the vernacular) no--she has no legal interest in the vehicle until you pass on to the next life.
My grandmother use to live in Chicago il , then her Poa moved her to Missouri .
Check with the court that handles probates in the vicinity of where your grandmother passed away. If a case has been opened to probate her estate, the will must be lodged with the court.

Me and my sister obtained a lawyer but our brother did not. Is he now excluded from any inheritance or would the estate be equally distributed?
The relatives estate will be distributed to his or her heirs regardless of whether they are represented by an attorney.

The terms of the lease control what you can do, not what the landlord says. If that clause is in your lease you can terminate the lease early if you pay the penalty.
The judgement is from a car accident where I hit a rental with no insurance. I didnt go to court so I got a default judgement. I have no idea what I owe and my drivers license has since been suspended. So this in return has cost me a lot of legal trouble. I'm supposed to be paying an attorney of... Read more »
First, if your attorney won’t return your calls hire a different one, assuming you can pay.
Second, I’m not sure what you mean by “remove” the default judgment. If you seek to have it removed from appearing on Casenet, that is not likely to happen. If it was a default judgment... Read more »
The other person told me at the scene they would sue me if I didn’t pay for the repairs within a week of receiving the estimate.
They sent me the estimate but it says their insurance covers it. So do I contact their insurance company to reimburse them?
A Missouri attorney could advise best on how an insurance carrier would handle this, as insurance practices are governed by state law. But your question remains open for two weeks, and you were concerned about responding to the other person in a week. As a general matter in many jurisdictions, auto... Read more »

Yes. Have your lawyer send them a cease and desist letter.

A "legal" eviction requires a court case and judgment against you before the landlord can have the sheriff execute on the judgment and return possession to the landlord. It sounds like you were given a notice to vacate from the landlord and that the landlord will likely file suit if you don't... Read more »
