I buy the product from a source that is allowed to make the sticker or decal and I put it on a product to sell. Do I still have to get a Craftman license to be able to sell that with that sticker on it?

There isn't enough information here to fully answer your question.
It does, however, sound like (depending on a lot more information) you could get in trouble for copyright and/or trademark infringement, fraudulent misrepresentation, or something else.
I have contacted the BBB sent and the claim was resolved being that I was given assurance of my product being where it needed to be at a certain date and they emailed me (this was about 6 months ago) so..

An Oklahoma attorney could advise best, as your matter could involve elements of state consumer law, but you await a response for two weeks. If you are contemplating handling the matter yourself, small claims, which you have already included in your categories, could be the most economical solution... View More

I would have to see your contract, but it appears as if they did not follow the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. They cannot threaten criminal charges, or negotiate in my opinion negotiate for further payment only to repossess. You need an attorney to look at the contract and then potentially... View More

You have cited a stat statute that governs litigation in the state courts. The city utility is not suing you for the ancient bills you never paid; they are telling you to pay your ancient debt or go get your utilities elsewhere.

There is a larceny by fraud charge that may apply, but it is really more of a civil issue. If the vehicle is $10,000 or less, small claims court may be an inexpensive way to get a judgement on the person and gain access to any assets they may have. Boeheim Freeman Law... 918-884-7791

Oklahoma Courts look unfavorably at non-compete agreements, and certain types of these agreements are unenforceable. That being said, it's not absolute. Your son needs to contact an attorney immediately. If he has been sued, he may need to respond to the lawsuit or risk a default judgment... View More
I own the business but not on the lease. How can I get back into my business that the leesee doesn't own?
answered on Jun 29, 2019
Since your not on the lease, you had no legal right to be on the property thus have no legal standing to avail yourself of the Courts for any type possession of the premises. You should contact the owner of the property and ask permission to be able to go onto the property to clean out the premises... View More

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the larger amount of money invested in a business by an investor does not mean the investor "automatically owns part of the business." However, you are throwing legal terms around without fully explaining all the important details underlying this... View More

Yes of course she can do it as you just told us she did. Contact the police and the lady immediately to clear up the matter. It would be best to have an attorney speak for you.

Part owner of 1 clinic partner got mad at me and started operating new place under same name but II after it. Am I entitled to same payout as with 1st clinic?
answered on Jan 8, 2019
Quite frankly, I think the "payout" is the least of your concerns right now.
Obviously, the place to start is with whatever contract, operating agreement (LLC), partnership agreement or shareholder agreement (corporation) you may have. These documents frequently make reference to... View More

Welcome to the murky waters of employee vs. independent contractor.
Part of the problem is that you have several agencies - both federal and state - with overlapping jurisdiction.
In Oklahoma, you have the IRS, the OTC and the OESC just to name a few.

My residential business has the word "homes" in it but I would like to start running commercial projects that excludes the word "homes". How can I do so without getting a new LLC, insurances, etc.?
answered on Jul 13, 2018
It sounds like you currently have an existing LLC. If so, this is a relatively easy process.
You need to surf over to the Oklahoma Secretary of State website, and look for the Trade Name Report.

Unfortunately, you did not provide enough facts to enable us to answer the question.
That decision is left to the owner of the property.
If she leases the property, then I would recommend that a review of the lease is in order.
What is the level of responsibility that a seller has if he dissolves an llc after selling property with a general warranty deed in Oklahoma in terms of liens or title disputes?
answered on Mar 16, 2018
I would speak with your title insurance company about this. In most cases, it is the title insurance company that ends up handling problems with deed warranties rather than the seller individually.

Whether you have any legal recourse depends on the contents of your contract with the organization and with their own established past practices. You should take your paperwork to an attorney familiar with contract law and review it with him or her in detail.
