I asked her why the increase and she told me that she had families on a waiting list willing to pay more. I explained to her that I did not mind the increase and that she just went up and with everything going on that it just seems shady. She sent me a message back stating she would send my final...

I am not sure the question. If you are wondering if the landlord can 1) raise the rent or 2) terminate and not renew - on a renewal - the answer would be in your lease which should have provisions as to how the lease ends- and perhaps renews. There is also generally "hold over"... Read more »
Someone passed a stolen check of mine and made a purchase of over $1000 at a Tennessee Walmart in late 2001. I was not aware of this until June 2020 when I was trying to purchase a handgun and was rejected by the TBI. The information I was given is that there is a case against me in the county...

Most importantly, you need to know if it was only a charge, or a conviction. A charge is not a firearm disability although the TBI will not okay your firearm purchase from a FFL. But a conviction, and a felony at that, will be life changing. Hopefully it is only a charge, and a very good... Read more »
What are my options to keep my house but to get rid of the RV?
Depending on your actual financial and cash flow position, a Chapter 7 might be what you are interested. If the RV is your only debt bankruptcy seems a bit extreme; however, it is what the number say.
Good Luck

There is not enough information to really respond to your question. I am not sure why if you are a consumer the reason you would be dealing with a surety company. But there is probably a good reason. You may want to contact a lawyer - rather than putting a lot of details here.
Do I have a legal right to assist? She barely has enough to get by each month.
Unless you are her Attorney In Fact or other Fiduciary, no, you have no standing. You might check the Deed to see who is the actual owner, so maybe you have an interest. She needs to file a Detainer Warrant today. Actually it may be too late and require Ejectment. She needs a competent attorney... Read more »
You don't say if your creditor is calling for past due payments on an existing loan or credit card, to collect on a judgment already obtained against you, or if the calls are from a collection agency, or a purchaser of your debt from the original creditor. There may be other options if you... Read more »
Both retailer & Mgfr agree defective. But we took the Law Tag off. We did not receive instructions from retailer as to Warranty nor did we receive a warranty booklet/tag upon delivery. The retailer offered 50% but rescinded after we went to TN Div of Consumer Affairs. We purchased $7,500.00... Read more »
At this point, with your post still remaining open, you could try to arrange a brief consult with a Tennessee attorney familiar with consumer law to advise you whether this would be viable to pursue, and your options under arbitration, small claims, or other venues. Unfortunately, the recent... Read more »

You apparently have an attorney. Make him do his job, and do not expect this forum to interfere with your relationship. If you cannot get him on the phone, go to his office until you find him.
The seller is keeping the plate and I don't have another plate to transfer to it. I know the vehicle needs to be insured before I drive it, but if I drive it home without a plate I'll surely get pulled over, right?
Call the county clerk's office where you live about obtaining a temporary tag you can take with you.

Interesting situation. While I agree completely that you should not be charged for on campus services if you are engaged in-line. It would depend on the contract between you and the university. I would first contact the Registrars office by telephone to attempt a resolution
If you mean your tax refund check, then yes. If you mean the CARES Act Covid-19 stimulus check, then no.
Insurance says WILL pay for internal damage due to the poor workmanship. Contractor has been saying he is at fault and will fix, but it's been 11 months and I still have tarps on my roof.
You could sue the contractor. He breached the contract by performing a job that failed to achieve the desired result of a repaired roof. I recommend you consult with an experienced attorney and examine your options in detail. You may be better off if you act quickly. The statute of limitations is... Read more »
I think that I am seriously being taken advantage of .I'm being charged thousands of dollars for a loan I have.

Which state's SOLs do you go by?
The Note, Security Agreement, etc probably contains a term which states which State's Laws apply. If not, then probably the State where the Contract was consummated controls, unless there is another agreement.
They have since sold to another co. Now they will not speak to me. I notified them prior to them selling and said they issued another check. It was not received
You will have to file suit, probably for breach of contract from either the settlement statement and/or the sale contract.
Proof of the agreement will be required and may be difficult to prove. The defendant is the new company who is responsible for the debts of the firm it bought. Proof... Read more »
Our company hired a debt collection agency to handle our delinquent accounts. We have proof that they collected on at least $9150 on one account. They never paid us & we have been trying to get our money paid back to us & they are unreachable. Where do we need to report them & what can we do?
You will have to hire an attorney to find out to to serve the Defendant. Then sue, hopefully in a Tennessee Court, but probably you might have to go to the State where you agreed in writing to litigate. Federal
Court probably does not have enough money for jurisdiction here. There... Read more »

Yes. Juvenile crime is running rampant and the state is cracking down on juvenile crime.

It's up to you, but you could contact an attorney and discuss the matter. Keep in mind that any decisions you make out of anger could haunt your daughter for the rest of her life. Good luck

I gave a credit card company the run around when it was time for payments due to the fact that I was currently going from job to job and wasn’t in any position to pay. My account was sold to a debt collector. Now I have papers to appear in court.
A decent lawyer should examine the Statute of Limitations, any Defenses, Compromises or at least work out a Slow Pay Order. If nothing else he should inform you of Exemptions. Garnishments will follow the Judgment now and in the future.
