Don't go trespassing, and especially not during the nighttime with the intent to recover property that he thinks belongs to him. If he has a decent attorney, he would probably get away with shooting you dead under those circumstances.
Frankly, this sounds like a matter for civil... Read more »

Most of the small claims courts and local courts have pamphlets which generally discuss ways to collect a judgment and what to file.

It's extremely important for you to file an answer in a case like this, so they do not get a default judgment against you. For this amount of money, it's probably not cost-effective to hire an attorney, but if it was for a larger amount, definitely seek counsel.
And to... Read more »

Two wrong letters won't make it right. Send a new letter giving 60 days, unless doing so will cause the statute of limitation to run, in which case, you do not need to give notice.

You can send a new letter, unless doing so would cause you to miss the 2 years statute of limitation, in which case, you can file the lawsuit with giving notice.

I don't understand your question. Your roommate paid someone else to apply for rental assistance, apparently received it, and is threatening to sue you for it? If your agreement with your roommate is to pay 1/2 of the rent, do that.
The plaintiff (a collection agency) has a retained attorney on record the one who filed the lawsuit, but another attorney claiming to be from the same law firm sent me an email trying to settle outside court. Should I correspond with him considering he’s not the attorney on file? Can he do that?... Read more »

As a starting point, you could reach out to the first attorney to ascertain what is going on in terms of being contacted by more than one attorney. You ask how to proceed... Read more »

I rent a room under a verbal contract. I've been told to vacate. This is sudden and leaves me in a terrible position. I'll be on the street because of this. Is there any law to protect me from this?
If you rent the room on a month to month basis, they have to give you 30 days notice of non-renewal. If the oral agreement is week to week, they would only need to give you a week's notice of non-renewal. If you've breached the agreement in some way, the notice period can be 3 days.
Apt did not use contracted towing company as what’s listed in my contract and outside buildings. They will not tell me a reason my car was towed. Who ever took my car did not leave any information on where my car was taken to. They did not register my car as towed, so it has been stolen. I made a... Read more »
Hello, thanks for your question!
Sorry to hear about that! In regards to the fees that you are being charged, on the invoices you are receiving, there should be a phone or email address that you can reach out to figure out what's going on.

In a civil court or is it just too bad until they refile their tax status
I don't know of any grounds for claiming half of someone else's stimulus check. But then, I also don't know of any grounds to file taxes jointly if you're not married, either.
Walmart claim denied for my injury from work on paper dept. they did not find any evidence of my injury so I want to sue them
This does not sound like an employment law-related matter. You should contact an attorney in your area who practices workers' compensation law to discuss your options.
About 3 months ago, I was provided a presentation on some solar panels. There were several key points in the presentation that convinced me that this was the company to go solar with.

The solar panel company may have violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices/Consumer Protection Act because of their representations to you.

A couple years ago I got a divorce and listed a truck as property for my ex husband. He was making the payments and the truck was always "his". Now he's not making the payments. My name is the only one on the truck and the loan. Legally it's the banks truck until it's paid... Read more »
No, it's not the bank's car. Based on your description, the title made it your car, and the divorce decree made it your ex-husband's car.
In most cases, the decree provides that the person who receives the property is responsible to pay the debt. If he doesn't do so,... Read more »
Back in 2006 in Illinois I appeared in court, and let the lawyer know I did not believe the debt was mine. I did not know what the debt was for, who it was owed to, etc. I was told they would look into it, and did not hear back again. I assumed they realized it was an error (wrong person). Fast...

I have receipts from everything of value stolen, including the tow truck drivers boss that released the vehicle to the transport company stating that she did see my personal property inside the vehicle before it left her lot.
If you believe that you were a victim of a crime then you can report the incident to law enforcement... otherwise, it is a matter for civil court.
A Texas attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for four weeks. When you say you are going through identity theft, it isn't fully clear whether you were the victim... or whether you are being accused of committing identity theft by authorities. If you were a victim and had your... Read more »
