If you did not receive instruction to install the 1/4" board, I don't see that you are at fault. I'm guessing they are refusing to pay you for your work. If they do this, call a lawyer who practices construction law in your area.

I see no cause of action. Without a written contract, statute of frauds is violated. Even an equitable remedy for unjust enrichment would not lie. Even if the plaintiff got a default judgment in Sessions Court, it would be set aside or uncollectable.

If you filed a detainer action and sought possession of property you had leased- at the end of 10 days, you can request a writ of possession from the Clerk.

Contract actions usually exclude consequential damages. Tort claims might include such damages. No
small claims court in TN. General Sessions Court might allow it, but it sounds like a breach of contract action, so no.

It appears that the contract will be breached by your working in an ER. Hire an attorney to read the contract and listen to the prospective new jobs. You may get sued in any event and have an attorney ready to go.

Not sure what "paying online" has to do with this. You must pay rent as the Lease requires or modified by both parties. Otherwise you breach the contract and may be the defendant on a detainer warrant.

I joind a trainer program at my local gym, was told that i can cancel any time free. Its a contract. After requesting to cancel, i was suprise to hear a $300 early cancelition fee.
Alghoug i was told there was no fee. What to do
answered on Nov 12, 2023
A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. Written terms generally prevail over verbal ones. One option could be to try to reach a compromise on the fee - getting an attorney involved could cost more than the amount in dispute here. Good luck
Can they give me a move out or eviction date if I do not fill out a contract with them before 7/31/24? Can they increase my rent before 7/31/24 without me signing any new documents? I'm new to Tennessee and really need help. Thank you.

New titled owner takes property subject to tenant in possession. So they should be bound by the
existent lease unless it has some contrary term. Read the lease or hire an attorney to consult. However it is easy to find a reason for a Detainer Warrant.

That is your decision.. But you will not be able to file a M & M Lien, and probably will not get paid anymore. Suit now, or better, filing the Lien now, will probably yield better results.

There is also no law requiring the repair shop to provide them.

You might inform seller you are paying only the actual contract amount of 4.9%. Especially in OH it will be difficult to repossess. Tell them if they have a problem you will call Davidson County Sheriff about the Forgery, which a lawyer cannot do.
