A North Carolina attorney could advise best on this, but your question remains open for two weeks. Dealing with the matter privately or publicly is up to you. Check the wording in the application for the appeal, particularly in terms of whether the determination of the appeal panel is binding.... View More

Of course. You don't think you get to blow off a ticket without bad things happening - do you?

Ordinarily, such an accusation would be considered a civil wrong. If verbal, it is slander. If it is in writing, it is libel. You could consult with an attorney who handles defamation cases, but keep in mind that such civil tort cases are not necessarily handled on a contingency basis the way... View More
He also claimed it wasn’t in a collision . A pre purchase inspection found it was falling apart, many codes hidden, and there was evidence of it having been in a collision. Is this legal in NC?
answered on Aug 20, 2019
No, it violates federal and likely state laws. If someone bought it they need to contact the consumer division of the AG's office.
I asked the builders agent twice and I was told it simply did not work out for them. I believe there was an affirmative duty to tell me if anything involved a defect with the house, so I assumed it was a problem with loan qualifying. I had studied the radon maps for this county in NC and did not... View More

Stop listening to the nosey neighbors--who probably do not want you to purchase the home because you are planning to rent it out. Happens all the time.
Bottom line: You will be unable to do anything about the alleged radon problem--and apparently unable to sleep--unless and until you find... View More
Both my wife and I are on the deed. No writ is against her. Is our home safe from florida writ? We have 2 vehicles with no lein, both our names on titles. Can they be siezed?
We appreciate your time. Thank you

Your home is safe, so long as it is titled as "tenants by the entirety". Your vehicles could potentially be seized, if you have not properly exempted them. Contact a Florida attorney regarding Florida's exemptions process.

Which state does the “usuary” law (s) apply? The resident’s state or the lending company ‘s state?

Penalties for usury are applicable in the resident's state. However, if the loan is usurious in the lenders state it may apply to you as well. Hire a lawyer to research it.
Original note was 144 payments of 550 due on the 15th monthly. I'm threatened with foreclosure all the time. He's changed my due date with no new installment agreement. I only have 4 payments left, but his balance reflects a balance of more than 3 times the amount I truly owe. I have 3... View More

It sounds like you may have uncovered a despicable collection tactic used by some individuals to steal property from borrowers who are not paying attention along the way. According to your facts, the total amount you agreed to pay (beginning nearly 12 years ago) is $79,200 ($550 times 144); and... View More

You can sue virtually anyone for virtually anything. The question you ought to be asking is - is it worth my while and what are my odds of success. Based on your description, it is likely not worth your while because the odds of success are likely less than slim and none. However, it never hurts... View More
I have an old debt with a landlord in Ohio from 2014. A judgement was issued in Ohio in2015. I completely forgot about, as I had zero communication with the debtor in the past 3 years.

This would be an easy problem to solve if it did not involve two separate states. If the bank levy was filed in the state of North Carolina you should hire a NC lawyer to help you. If the action was filed in Ohio, you need an Ohio lawyer. Do not try to defend against this levy without a lawyer.

Seriously? Has he been threatening you from jail?

Will sheriff give notice and how soon can sale take place in N.C.?
answered on Oct 11, 2018
The creditor will have to have a Writ of Execution issued. Then the sheriff will have the authority to seize the house to satisfy the judgment. The timing depends on how soon the clerk can issue the writ and how fast the creditor gets it into the hands of the sheriff. The creditor may also object... View More

I am really hoping that the real reason it appears you have done virtually nothing to see your children in ten years is that you simply did not have the financial resources to do so. If that is the case, there is certainly no shame in that (assuming you have also done whatever else you can to say... View More

Find where the association was formed and who the service agent is and sue them just like any other entity.
I wanted to ask if it’s possible for someone to sue you for sleeping with their husband if you didn’t know? I didn’t know this guy was married and his wife messaged me on Facebook threatening to fight me and sue me. I read that it’s possible in North Carolina and I’m kinda scared. I’m only 19

At 19 you likely possess nothing worth suing for and should likely be more afraid of the threat to 'fight you' than the threat of being sued.
