Look at your lease. Whatever rights the lender or owner may have to inspect would be included within the lease.
Car wreck no injuries
A Tennessee attorney should advise, but your question remains open for three weeks. Instead of losing time continuing to await a response, you should consider reaching out to an attorney to determine what action is required, as time may be of the essence here. Nationwide, car accidents generally... Read more »
Not sure why an attorney in fact would be paid anything by an Estate. But you might start by looking at the Court File at Probate Court. It might list the claims or an accounting by the Administrator/Executor. Read the File verbatim. If it seems wrong, hire an attorney to examine the... Read more »

If necessary you will need to file an Action in General Sessions against the State. It is basically a Declaratory Judgment Action pursuant to Statute, and I believe you will need a competent attorney. This will need to be filed very soon.
We both agree to divorce. No kids together. She is in bankruptcy. She in Alabama and I’m moved to tn a yr ago
Getting your name off the Mortgage/Deed of Trust and/or Note will not be easy. Possibly Wife can refinance it or sell the home.

The court printout of ticket has incorrect address, incorrect DL# and wrong court date. LEO states radar tracked me at 45 in a 30 going there opposite direction. Is there a chance that I can get this dismissed?
Check with Court Clerk about the exact Court Date. Go to Court and be respectful about telling either the Prosecutor or the Judge about the incorrect Citation. Hopefully you will receive a Diversion or a Dismissal.
Remember you are only allowed 11 points on your MVR for the last year,... Read more »
example: tail light was out
Absolutely... LEO's can execute a legal stop for any Rule of the Road Violation they witness. Then other Charges may follow.
they are renting in TN
The landlord could choose to file to evict everyone.
He was found not guilty by prosecutor. His Miranda rights were not read to him. I live in TN now, he is still in IN. I moved for my safety.
It depends on what the injuries were and when the occurred. And if the incident(s) occurred in a state other than Tennessee, you'll need to check that state's law on statutes of limitation.
My ex-boyfriend stole my things and gave them to his new girlfriend I have pictures and I also have text messages saying that he did will that hold up in court
If you took the pictures and can authenticate same, then those may be admissible. Text messages against the ex are also likely admissible as an admission by party-opponent.
My ex wife’s bf was charged and arrested for Agg assault. Her attorney represented her bf in court against her. The charges were dropped. The Same attorney also represents her in a child custody lawsuit. Is this not a conflict of interest or something?
I would not personally do it. But they can if they both waive a conflict of interest.
I actually thought my car had been stolen from Wal-Mart parking lot while i was in jail that night. My aunt finally found out that it was at a different walmart. That is how bad my memory is along with many other issues bc of my brain injury disability
If you mental capacity was in question at the time of the event (the theft) then I suggest hiring an attorney to talk to the District Attorney and request a mental evaluation . Good Luck!
and received a ticket but the officer didn't ask me to sign it on the paper or on an electronic device. Does that mean an automatic dismissal in court since i wasn't asked to sign? Thank you
No. That is only an acknowledgement of the Citation instead of Arrest. You will need to go to Court in a respectful manner. Be polite about the lack of signature.
We had a handshake agreement for buyer(long-time friend) to pay for a commercial van. 2009 Chevy, agreement was $3500, 500/month, never paid. He was supposed to transfer plates and insurance to his name but didn't, so it is still on our commercial insurance. We do not have contact with him or... Read more »
You should be able to get DOS to issue a new title certificate in the purchaser's name. Ask your County Clerk first, then call Nashville. Once issued send a copy to your agent, and try to deliver the title to the owner. Also that is probably a lease with option to purchase transaction,... Read more »
Good samaritan law .could exigent entry be made saying defendant had past history of destroying evidendc3... 3weeks later
Not sure of your question... But the defendant's attorney may be able to file a Motion To Suppress Evidence obtained by an illegal search. It is difficult to prevail and he needs a competent attorney.
Brother was sole beneficiary among myself and 6 other siblings.feel will was coerced undue influence on mother who was in Alzheimer status
In my opinion no... Besides blowing the SOL, there are practical matters to consider. Witnesses will be nonexistent now. And most importantly, the real and personal property is almost assuredly gone by now. I recommend you do a title search on any real property to see if any title problems can... Read more »
A Tennessee attorney could answer best, but your question remains open for four weeks. As a general matter, if it was a public campground with park rangers having jurisdiction in the area, they probably could for a justifiable reason. For a private facility, it might depend on the facts -... Read more »
he waived his extradation right and still have not heard a word about what is going on
I would contact his attorney in NC to see if he can find out. That seems to be taking an extra long time to extradite him but it could be because of COVID as well.
