The answer to this question depends on whether your brother left you his half through his Will, or through a trust, or by deed. Depending on which instrument he used, you will need to examine the instrument itself. If he left it through a Will, it is likely a probate action will be needed in... Read more »
I am an employee of a tax-exempt Catholic Parish in Wisconsin. I am considering doing a series of trivia nights through an online platform during COVID-19. These would be to raise money for the youth group, the mission club, etc. There would be an entry fee paid by credit card or debit card... Read more »
There is more to it than this, but generally, there are specific state and federal rules against hosting a lottery (i.e. a game of chance). If you're hosting a game of "chance" (as opposed to one of skill) there must be a "No purchase necessary to Play" option for EVERYONE eligible to play.... Read more »

Generally, any Addendum to a lease is enforceable if the Addendum is properly made part of the lease, properly executed by the Parties and does not contain a provision prohibited by existing law.
Yes, it is possible. You will want to review the Wisconsin LLC Law under "SUBCHAPTER XII MERGER; CONVERSION" - Here is the statute: https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/183/XII/1207. If the other company is not a Wisconsin LLC, the steps may be different, but every jurisdiction I can... Read more »
You could repost this under the Military Law section. It is not an ordinary appeals matter in a civil court. You could also consider reaching out to military law attorneys you find under that section, or ones you find on your own independently on the outside to see if they could offer you a free...

I moved out end of June 2019. I got my security deposited back within the 21 days as expected. I just got an invoice dated April 2nd 2020 for cleaning that supposedly happened on June 30th 2019. It doesnt included a receipt or anything proving they brought in the cleaner either. Can they still... Read more »
Arguably a landlord may return the security deposit in full and then seek contract damages. This makes some sense for the landlord because if the tenant challenges a security deposit violation then the landlord can be on the hook for double damages and tenant's attorney fees. In this case, if you... Read more »
You should repost your question in the Military Law category. You're asking about something which is outside normal civilian appellate practice. Good luck

Generally a landlord is not liable for noise caused by a tenant unless the complaining party is another tenant in the same complex who is being denied quiet enjoyment of their unit. Otherwise, noise complaints are properly directed to local law enforcement.

I am looking to break my lease in Wisconsin but my landlord is saying that my only option is to sublease and that I cannot break my lease
A tenant may choose to break the lease. The landlord is then under a duty to mitigate damages - essentially to try to re-rent the unit. The tenant may then be held liable for the months in which no rent was collected from the tenant or the new tenant, the difference between the new tenant's rent... Read more »
I never moved in, I called to cancel it before my moving date. But they said I'm liable to pay the rent until someone re-rents. But they rented two same units, same price, and same style, not mine. What happens if I stop making payments?
Thanks in advance
Assuming that the lease is enforceable, which may only be determined after review by a qualified attorney, you may be liable for the full contract amount. The landlord is under a duty to mitigate damages and to work to re-rent the unit. That duty does not necessarily mean that the landlord has to... Read more »
Your rights and obligations under the contract can only be determined after reviewing the entire offer. Generally, a buyer may only use a valid contingency to terminate an offer. Simply deciding that the market conditions are no longer ideal to move forward is not typically a valid reason to... Read more »
I filed a report with Federal Consumer Protection Bureau
I would need more details to be able to assist you. I recommend looking for a consumer lawyer that offers free consultations and calling them up for advice.
No. The conditions of bail are not violated by declining to accept an offer made by the District Attorney. You have the right to fight the case, which includes having motion hearings and a jury trial. You have the absolute right to advise the District Attorney that you are rejecting the offer.
It’s likely that the employer misread the document or was influenced by the mere fact of the arrest. What you refer to as a background check is a document prepared by the Wisconsin Department of Justice Criminal Information Bureau (CIB) based on fingerprints taken when you were arrested. The fact...

Yes. In Wisconsin a judge can order indefinite income tax refund intercept if the ticket is not paid by the deadline set in court, usually within 60 days of judgment.
can i send the example of the t shirt for reference? dog theme is purely general, no negative/positive undertones,
The issue here may not be one of trademark but rather the right of publicity. Snoop is a celebrity whose name, image and likeness have monetary value. If someone else uses that for monetary gain they could be liable. Feel free to email me at tania.williams@williamsfirmpa.com for a consult so... Read more »
It was a hazardous wire in front of a TV, then said student accidentally broke the TV would the student then have to pay for a replacement?
It could depend on the school district. Many districts across the nation would let it go, treating it for what it was, an accident. Students should not be held accountable if their conduct was accidental. Further, there could be insurance to cover such losses. Your question remains open for four... Read more »
