I am sorry to hear about your situation. Your landlord will have to take you to court to evict you.

Odds are a judge will give you time to find a new place. So, technically you can be evicted, but probably not any time soon. You should start looking at assistance programs that may help... View More

Under executive order 128, a tenant can use their security deposit to pay rent, so that may be an option to offer your tenants. Furthermore, if a tenant leaves with a balance, you may deduct that balance from the tenants security deposit. But it is CRUCIAL to send your tenant a security deposit... View More

You need to terminate the tenancy of the people that live there now. Even if you do that correctly, they may not want to move out and then you will have to evict them. At this time, evictions are on hold in NJ.

Talk to them first and explain what is going on. If they are able to pay... View More

You are a long way from being homeless at this time. The only way to legally remove you from the property is by eviction. Because of Covid, there is an eviction and foreclosure moratorium.

Not an easy issue to resolve given that you have a compromised immune system and the biological mother has significant restrictions on her contact / access to her daughter. Im guessing that the reason for the non-overnight plan in place has to do with concerns for the mothers mental health issues... View More

The US government is well aware of the situation and that many LPR's are victims of the same circumstance. Even so, contact your US consulate and advise them of your situation.

The Fair Labor Standards Act (the federal laws governing this situation) don't provide a lot of protection against this sort of issue. Under the FLSA, you need only be paid at least minimum wage for all hours of work you perform. So, while your situation sounds unfair, as long as you are still... View More

You did technically overstay since the filing was rejected. However, I doubt it will have any consequences.

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, you must be paid for all hours worked. If the work your employer is asking you to "volunteer" to perform for no pay is the same type of work you normally perform for pay, then you should be paid for this time and any other "volunteer" work... View More

Thank you for your question. We are seeing this same issue again and again, and we understand that there is increased anxiety all around for people who are co-parenting in these difficult times.

In general the courts are not considering "what if" scenarios, they are enforcing... View More

In reality, any lawyer who tells you that he / she can file an emergent application at this time and can tell you how the judge assigned to handle this issue will response, is being disingenuous with you. To begin with, emergent parenting time applications are being... View More
