Call the police and report the RV stolen.
The police may tell you that this is a civil matter and they will not help you. If the police tell you this is a civil matter, file an action in replevin.

It sounds like you relied on the firm's promise, and you relied on the promise to your own detriment. You may be able to sue under a theory of detrimental reliance.

Q: A mechanics lien has been filed on a property of ours, we disagree with the charges.
Kyle Persaud's answer
You may subpoena the manager to show up in court. You can present the text messages in evidence. You may introduce anything into evidence that has "any tendency to make the existence of any fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action more probable or less probable than it would be without the evidence."

Doak Willis' answer
Before an attorney could give competent advice in answering your question, they would need to see a copy of the contract that was signed by your daughter. Since there are time constraints that attach to some contracts entered between people or companies, you should tell her to seek out an attorney quickly and show the attorney the contract signed and give answers to the questions the attorney may ask of her surrounding the signing of the contract. That attorney should be able to advise her of...

Doak Willis' answer
Anything is possible if everyone agrees. However, since you state the contact was signed without your having read it to insure the accuracy of the contract, you will be bound to the terms if the seller insists on it being followed.

If your boss stopped paying you for coming to work, you would quit and find a new job. If you are not paying your attorney, your attorney can withdraw from your case. If your attorney withdraws from your case, you will be required to hire a new attorney.

You can search to see if a mechanic's lien has been filed on your property by searching in the land records division of the Court house where the property is located. There is a fee for copies. If the creditor makes an attempt to foreclose on the mechanics lien you should be notified by a summons.

This is a great question. Generally judges are disinclined to allow a non-attorney to participate in proceedings. However, there is the authority to allow an agent under a power of attorney to participate on behalf of his or her Principal.

Q: Am I legally obligated to a lease that I did not sign, but was listed on as an occupant?
Doak Willis' answer
Since you did not sign the lease, a contract was not formed between you and the landlord thus you can not be held liable for your ex-roommates failure to pay the rent.

Q: I've been buying my home for two years and landlord wants me to move
Richard Winblad's answer
Your question did not have all the facts necessary to give a more solid answer. However, it sounds like you had a contract for deed or lease to own agreement. You should have an attorney review the agreement along with any other writings (emails, texts, letters, etc). If you have an interest in the property the "landlord" is actually a lender and would need to foreclose upon the obligation. This could only be done if you are in default. Visit with a local attorney.

Q: Is my lease breakable?
Doak Willis' answer
Just because your husband's application shows rejected and your SS# is wrong does not invalidate your lease. The landlord and tenant act of Oklahoma sets out what the landlord is responsible for in the providing of certain things in your leased premises. They cannot start a new lease without your signatures. Demand a copy of that lease. Request in writing to the landlord to fix whatever conditions warrant in your leased premises.

Reece B. Morrel Jr's answer
With the limited facts you have given, it is hard to determine what is going on - but, I am suspicious.
First of all, it is common to have taxes "withheld" in a variety of transactions. These can include withdrawals from retirement accounts, winnings from slot machines, etc. And as an example, it is common for retirement withdrawals to include Federal withholding of approximately 30% and State withholding to be around 10% - which is less than the 50% you described.

Q: HOA is making me remove my wooden rail chain link fence.The covenants don't specifically say no chain link. Can I keep?
Gary Johnston Dean's answer
Before deciding to "Stand your Ground" against the HOA, consult a local real estate lawyer about this issue. It will be much cheaper now to get a good answer, than later. If he believes you are correct, a letter from him to the HOA should settle the matter. Good Luck, and thanks for visiting Justia.

Lease agreements generally have some provisions which permit a landlord to "inspect" their property. Without reading the lease, I can't give a good answer. Read it yourself, and if you think the landlord is abusing your rights to privacy, and want to terminate your lease see a lawyer for advice.
You can also write your landlord and point out any lease provisions he is violating, and ask him in writing to stop, or give notice of intent to terminate the lease. It will have very specific...
