| [Update] My children and I are safe from our abuser! Posted: 16 Apr 2019 10:59 PM PDT Original post >> https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/b0gnel/i_am_afraid_for_my_life_and_those_of_my_children/ In late March the MPO hadn't been approved yet and my husband came home from underway on a Monday. Thanks was uneventful because we had a friend over. But Tuesday night he came home and was pissed about the MPO his command had informed him we were seeking and badly hurt my arm in anger while I was nursing our infant. In the morning when he was gone and it was safe to do so o called the police and they came and made a report. They didn't arrest him and said my injuries weren't sufficient for an arrest but at least I got the report. Luckily that same day my advocate at the family advocacy program called me and FINALLY got the MPO approved for 30 days. My husband immediately broke it by emailing me a threatening email saying I would regret this and he had nothing left to lose. Because of this, my advocate spoke to the Navy Marine Relief Corps Society and requested on my behalf that they fly me to my mom. I consulted with an attorney first who advised the same thing. So on March 23 we flew to Hawaii. I stayed at a DV shelter for two weeks during which I was able to get a TRO against my husband. I asked for a continuance at the hearing to give time to serve him and my next hearing is in June. My time at the DV shelter was only for two weeks and then we were staying in a tent on my mom's patio, but were told by her landlord she would get evicted if we stayed. A Redditor came to the rescue and lent us 500, which with what I had on my own was enough to pay first months rent on a place. We now have SNAP, TANF, a house, a car that was donated to us by a loving woman, and have the ball rolling on getting child support. I am in contact with his command. His MPO is up on May 1 but other than the first threatening email he hasn't contacted me, although he did send some threats to my oldest son's cell phone. I am currently looking for work but I'm doing okay. I want to say I understand why some women don't leave. The police didn't arrest him. Can you freaking believe that. His command took far to long to get the MPO. We ended up homeless for almost a week. It's been terrifying and overwhelming. But we are safe. And now we can begin to heal and rebuild. I could not have done this without the overwhelming support and outpouring of love I've gotten on here. Thank you everyone for the encouragement, resources, advice and friendship. My children and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are all truly angels. Edit: I'm getting a lot of people asking about how they can help. I put an Amazon wish list link in the r/bestoflegaladvice thread for this. You all have done so much for me already. Thank you for everything. [link] [comments]  |

| HOA has requested everyone to submit documents proving immigration status of everyone living here. Posted: 17 Apr 2019 07:09 AM PDT Location: New York. They say it is to comply with "US federal laws" and failure to do so will result in the property and residents being reported to ICE and a potential fine. So, is there such a law that requires HOAs to become immigration officers? And secondly, do we need to just comply? It seems ridiculous. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 09:56 AM PDT California Using a throwaway This happened yesterday Driving down a 3 lane road, I am in the middle lane, light a head of us abut 1/4 mile up turns red, everyone starts slowing down, but still moving ~30MPH, douchebag in a ridiculous lifted truck to the right of me as a "prank" honks his horn. Not any horn, but a fucking train horn. Scared the shit out of me Here is what happened:
No tickets were handed out to those of us in the accident as the cops wanted to take their time concluding their investigation, but we were all told that tickets are coming. The guy in the truck did get a ticket for having using his train horn as that's illegal My main question here...Am I at fault here? What can I do to pin the cause of this on the guy in the truck with the super loud horn? Some quick googling says that his modification is be illegal (as evidenced by the ticket he received), but are his actions enough to make him at fault? [link] [comments]  |
| [CA] Can a daycare refuse service to a homophobic Christian family or is that discrimination? Posted: 17 Apr 2019 08:03 AM PDT I hope this is the right flair, if not I'll change it. New to this sub so I apologize if I break any rules. Located in Los Angeles, CA. I work for a family run daycare. It's a super diverse facility- we accommodate families of all backgrounds (different income levels, religious beliefs, ethnicities, etc). That's a big draw of our daycare and we have a somewhat long waiting list of families trying to get their kids in. We accept students on a first come, first serve basis. I gave a tour yesterday to a couple who were super friendly at first and seemed to like what we had to offer. However, when we were walking back to my office to discuss further, the moms (they're a lesbian couple) of one of our kids were there to drop off his lunch. They politely introduced themselves and gave a little testimonial to the parents about how great the daycare is. The second they left, the parents I was giving a tour to started going off about us allowing "gays" into our daycare. Saying they were being rude by coming over to us during the tour, asked if their kid was gay or spreading those ideas around, if there are gay people who work here, etc. I didn't answer their questions, instead I asked if that was a problem. They said they're a devout Christian family and being around gay people compromises their values. We state on our website that we respect the religious beliefs of families' and can accommodate them, and it seems these parents took that to the extreme. I explained to them that we're an incredibly inclusive and diverse community and they should find a different childcare facility. I said we don't appreciate attitudes like theirs and it's not a good fit. They blew up at me and went off about how that's discrimination, I can't deny them childcare because they're Christian, stuff like that. They eventually left but threatened a lawsuit. They're framing it as if I told them no because they're Christian, but obviously it's because they're bigots. Do they have any legal ground here? Would it be discrimination for us to ban them from our daycare? Any help is appreciated. Thank you. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 07:30 AM PDT About a week ago, someone rings my doorbell to tell me that my car was hit. Apparently this person had been hit first and they took off so they chased them all over Chicago trying to get a picture of their license plate. Unfortunately for me, this resulted in the person losing control of their car and crashing into mine. Once that happened, the person that was originally hit took the picture they needed and the stolen car sped off. Turns out, after finally looking at their car, there was no damage anyway, hooray. So, the police come over, write a report, give me an exchange card, I call my insurance, let them know what happened, I send them a picture of the license plate, they say they'll let me know what's up later. They call me back this morning and say that the car was stolen and the guy was arrested. To me, that sounds great, we know who did it, we have proof they did it, just pay for my car and I'll call it a wash. Turns out, no, this guy doesn't have to pay for anything. I'm sure he's paying all of the damages to the car they stole, sure, but nothing to me. My insurance is telling me I have to pay a $250 deductible and I won't have a car for who knows how long while they fix it. A few weeks ago, this wouldn't have been a huge deal, everyone gets screwed sometimes, sure. But five days before I was hit, I became unemployed. Now, $250 is a big deal. Now, not having a car for a week is a big deal. So, please, if someone could give me insight as to why it works this way or if there's some kind of action I can take, that would be really helpful. Is my insurance wrong? Is there something I'm totally missing here? It just seems crazy to me that this is the end result. Thanks in advance for any and all replies. [link] [comments]  |
| Employer reduced bathroom time for everyone and won’t accommodate my medical issues Posted: 17 Apr 2019 03:16 AM PDT I work for a major bank in their call center. I've worked here 2 years. It's actually been a pretty good place up until three weeks ago. They issue is a metric they call availability which measures how often you are actively in a call (not just at your desk, but actively speaking to a customer). Measure was 92.5% of your time is actively with customers. It was this measure for years, up until three weeks ago, when it was changed to 100%. We are now told that bathroom breaks must be done during our paid breaks or lunch. I only work 6.5 hours per day, so I only get one 15 min paid break. I do not get a lunch or any unpaid time. Additionally, it takes 2 min to log out of the computer and 2 min to log back in, so that 15 min is really 11 min. So, I now only get 11 min to go to the bathroom/get water/eat and only once in the entire day. I have severe irritable bowel syndrome and it's medically/physically impossible for me to go to the bathroom that fast. My manager said "while we'll work with you as much as we can, everyone must meet this expectation. There are no exceptions." Is this really allowed? Location is Minnesota [link] [comments]  |
| Foreclose a private mortgage in MD Posted: 17 Apr 2019 09:05 AM PDT Many years ago, my father purchased a small house in Frostburg, Md (both his and my name were put on the house-2011?). I lived there when I attended FSU. Heads up - the home is only worth $35K tops so use your imagination. Shortly after graduating, my father found out that he had stage 4 cancer and wanted to sell off assets (willing to making ANY deal). He found a buyer and sold under a private mortgage agreement where buyer pays $325/month over the span of 5 years with a balloon of $15K due in August 2019. I only knew the bare facts as they needed my signature at the title sale table (I wasn't expecting anything from it as it was a nice gesture that my father did to help me with school expense- that's all). (2014) Two months later, my father died and I was left to sort through the pieces (now holding the note on the private mortgage)... I notified the buyer of my fathers passing and informed him that the agreement/contract would still hold (as my signature was on it). He has paid monthly for the past 4 years (normally late- its been a headache to say the least). I have kept dates, records and emails of every transaction. I have the deed in my possession as well. He is roughly 5 months from the balloon now and he has stopped paying entirely. He has not answered phone calls or emails and he will be 30 days in default in roughly 2 days. No communication. How do I go about foreclosing a private mortgage??? - I know that at 30 days, I can send a letter of default by certified mail. How long before I can file with the court? timelines? Can I do a NON- judiciary foreclosure by myself (seems much faster) or does it still require a lawyer??? I'm 90% sure there is a point of sale clause in the contract that would allow it. -> Lastly, I am terrified of how much legal fees will be to foreclose...for literally a house that I don't want, worth almost nothing, 3+ hours away (fee to hassle factor). Is it charged by hour or can they give me a ballpark quote number to take care of the legal paperwork? edit: why am I being downvoted? I have been nothing but accommodating to this man. I would be willing to restructure if he would only communicate! [link] [comments]  |
| CA My Instagram account is being harassed by people trying to buy my account name Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:22 AM PDT I didn't know where else to turn so i came to LA.People are trying to buy my account because they like the username. I don't have an absurd amount of followers or anything, they just like my username.I've blocked over 60 people and I get hundreds of emails weekly for password resets and its just so annoying i don't want to deal with it anymore. I've tried to contact instagram but my inquiry doesn't fall within any of their predetermined categories so they haven't been too helpful. I was hoping someone here may have better advice on being able to stop this harassment. Of course the other alternative is to just sell my account name to someone.. I've read into using an escrow for this? Any advice on stopping the harassment? If not, then on how to properly sell it? I've also read its against the ToS of Instragram to sell accounts.. So there's that.... edit: Breaking ToS is not illegal is it? Source [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 01:51 PM PDT Hi r/legaladvice, A student made false allegations out of spite for reporting her to the school administration for being in my room and following me around the school as well as continuously spamming my email and social media. Following the day I reported her, she reported that I kissed her (untrue) so I was placed on admin leave. I am still getting paid for the whole school year, and have not had any financial loses. However, the school district is so backed up with similar cases (400 or so as they told me) that it could be a 6+ month investigation, and due to not being able to finish the school year, it seems I will have to redo a whole probationary year again with my sponsors for my certification if they do not drop me based on the allegations. I was already told by the district I cannot return to that particular school if the investigation finds me innocent (which it will), so I already lost a school and a position in which I was very comfortable in. Also, I feel I have lost respect within the community, as when I go shopping or to eat whenever I see another staff member or student they turn pale and pretend they do not know me or tell me that the entire campus has wrote me off as a pervert, which I believe this falls into defamation? There is no evidence that the student and I had physical contact (kiss) and in fact I have a 10 minute recording of the student telling me that her family is asking her to lie and say that I assaulted her so they can get some sort of financial reward. I know that this ten minute recording more than proves my innocence, and proves her family conspired to take me specifically down to go after the district, regardless of how sullied my name becomes. Is there any legal action I can take against the student (18) or her family? I feel like the student defamed my name and cost me a comfortable position in a school I loved, and I hate the fact that the student and their family will not suffer from any consequences. This is in Texas, by the way. [link] [comments]  |
| Just received a strange phone call from a lawyer Posted: 17 Apr 2019 03:53 AM PDT Hi all, could you please share your thoughts on this weird thing that just happened to me. I have just received a call that sounded quite dodgy from an anonymous number. It was someone calling himself a lawyer. First of all his voice was strange so that put me on the alert already.. anyway he claimed that there was an important matter to discuss, asked if I knew a list of names (which I have never heard of) and then proceeded with listing a series of offences like extortion and scam saying that they were very serious and carried onerous fines (?) He said he got my number from the embassy and local authorities because "that's what they do in serious situations such as this one" so he knows the country where I live in and the one where I am from. That embassy thing sounded like bs to me so at that point I just hung up and said never call me again. He tried once more and I didn't answer. Now this whole thing sounds really bogus, I can only think of a bad joke made by some bad person maybe in my old circle of friends or something. Needless to say I have never committed any offence and I don't even know what he was talking about. Am I a target of a bad joke from a malicious person or could this actually be a lawyer trying to milk some cow or even scam someone? [link] [comments]  |
| Do i need a lawyer to vaccinate my child when his mother refuses to do so? Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:33 AM PDT Location: Michigan My girlfriend is due in July, and she refuses to vaccinate for measles despite 42 cases in Michigan traced back to unvaccinated people. I believe it's a public safety hazard and its in the best interest for my child and the community, but she won't listen to me, stating that the research she's done is better than what I've done. If I chose to vaccinate my child without her consent, would I need to get a lawyer? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 04:00 AM PDT I have a couple of ads up on Kijiji for my old prom dresses. Yesterday I got a call from a "No Caller ID". I answer it. It's a friendly man asking about the dresses for his 16 year old daughter. He asks a load of questions about the dresses. When were they worn? What accessories did you have? Were there alterations made to the dresses? Everything seemed fine. In my ad I said that the person can try the dresses on. He asked for the address and I stupidly gave it to him. He mentions that because this girl is only 16, what's the living situation like? Do I have roommates? I say it's just me and my cat, no need to worry about boys coming in if shes trying the dresses on. His entire demeanour changes. His voice lowers and is dominating. He says that he now knows where I live, knows I live alone, and if I don't follow his rules, he will come to my house and hurt me and my pet. He will "do things" to me if I don't obey. I'm panicking. I'm total shock. I feel like a fucking fool. I ask "who is this?" And he won't say. He keeps repeating the fact that I have to "play his little game" and that my first rule is to not hang up. As I'm on the phone, just shocked, I go and lock my doors. He said "are you going to listen to me and play by my rules?" Or something like that. I hang up. I call the police. They eventually come and say they can't do much but not to really worry. He's probably some creep who wanted pictures or money or something. No report was filed. That's okay and I appreciate their help anyway (really). I'm still so scared. I was shaking and sobbing all day. I slept over at a friends house. I have no idea who would do this or what he wanted. I am wondering if there's a way I can contact my phone company (BELL) to get the information of who called me (as it was listed as "no caller ID") ? Or, I thought about contacting Kijiji to see if they would send me the accounts of people who have viewed the ad (there are only a handful). Does anyone have any experience with trying to track an unknown caller in Ontario? Or does anyone have experience with extracting information from Kijiji for purposes as such? I'm just terrified to go home. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you for reading. [link] [comments]  |
| Step-Daughter Changes Beneficiary on $500k investment account to screw Step-Momo Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:15 AM PDT Hey guys, I apologize if I'm using the wrong flair on here (also mobile and first time poster). I'm really hoping that someone can give some advice on US law; I'm a Canadian; it's my American resident mom who's in this situation. My step-dad (Mom's husband) passed away on March 16, 2019. She thought she was close to her 2 step kids but as soon as their dad got sick in December 2018, the tables turned. My mom did the best she could to maintain a civil relationship with them. The daughter had access to Step-Dad's computer & passwords for bank accounts, investment accounts, and everything through Feb-March 2019 (important as this type of investment account is managed online). My mom only got the stuff back after Step-Dad passed away. Mom had a bad feeling about the situation because crazy shit started happening - the executor of the will (Step-Uncle) decided to go on vacation the last week of Step-Dad's life, and missed adding my Mom's name to Step-Dad's accounts, then demanded that Mom pay for Step-Dad's cremation, funeral, and meal afterwards on the day of Step-Dad's funeral. when Mom got the computer and passwords back, the bookmarks for all of Step-Dad's accounts had been deleted. All through this, she was told that she is 100% beneficiary and the will has her as the sole beneficiary. When Step-Dad passed away, Step-Uncle said that each step-kid (2) get $100K each from the $500k investment account. Today Mom called the investment company and was told that she gets $100K and the other beneficiaries listed are the step-kids (so they're getting $400k). They mailed out a confirmation letter in March 2019 which Mom didn't receive. She suspects that Step-Daughter made these changes on the online account management of her own accord; she hasn't found out if Step-Dad signed anything for it yet. Any suggestions on what Mom's options are? Eg contest it, sue Step-Daughter, so on? I don't know much about US law so any advice is appreciated. Thanks so much! Edit: typo in title - oops! UPDATE - last change to beneficiaries was made was March 13, 2019, 3 days before Step-Dad passed away when he was in palliative care. He didn't have access to his computer & Step-Daughter had his computer at that time. [link] [comments]  |
| Aunt took my grandmother after grandfather passed and won't allow anyone see or talk to her Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:23 AM PDT So after my grandfather recently passed away my Aunt(mom's sister) took my grandmother to stay with her temporarily without telling my mother. Up until this point my grandmother has been taking care of herself as well as my disabled grandfather for many years mostly independently with the help of my mother who visits and helps out every weekend. My Aunt who lives 3 hours away would visit at most once a month(more often once every 3-6 months). Upon my grandmother temporarily staying with my Aunt she immediately took my grandmother to the bank yo have a Power of Attorney signed and signed on to my grandmother's bank account as joint account holders. My mom was able to talk to my grandmother occasionally on the phone for the first couple weeks where my mom expressed concern that my Aunt would try to steal her money. My Aunt has a history of bullying, manipulation, and generally very vicious behavior. My Aunt has now disconnected the land line which was my grandmother's on only form of communication and has blocked my mother's calls. My mom has become very stressed and anxious over this and does not know what to do. Her sister had bullied her repeatedly through out their life and this is pretty much par for the course. This is in Washington State. Any advice would be very much appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 05:59 AM PDT Vehicle broken into overnight at hotel property parking lot (not on street). Several other vehicles broken into. Multiple serialized items stolen. Police report filed that day. I found the exact items (they're identifiable and unique) on letgo. How do I proceed? I also used public records, context clues in the ad and social media to track the person down to an address. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:42 AM PDT Edit: I understand that his job probably had strict rules about reselling. And by recourse I guess I mean can he try to get his job back on the fact that he never would have gone through with this transaction if he didn't get permission from his manager. It seems crazy that he's fired without warning. He is charismatic and is someone who closes a high a mouth of sales for the company As I said in the title, my dad was working for a luxury watch brand. He had been unemployed for a long time after his shop went out of business (but constantly looking for work) so when he got this job about 2 years ago he was elated. He has put his heart and soul into studying about watches and I've never seen anyone (his coworkers included) who are as passionate about the brand as he is. A few months ago he purchased a vintage watch at full price through the company. A little while after he had unexpected expenses - but the watch was beyond the return period. He had no choice but to put it up for sale. I believe this company thinks he was intentionally trying to flip the watch - but he was selling it for exactly what he paid. 10 minutes ago he just got an unexpected phone call from HR telling him that he was not allowed to buy that watch in the first place and are now firing him. He tried to explain that he asked permission from his manager (who left the company) and that he would like HR to speak to his former manager to confirm but they are not interested. My dad thought he was acting within the rules of the company. He got explicit confirmation from his former manager. Should he have been entitled to a write-up or warning? I feel sick to my stomach because my parents don't have much money and at their age it will be difficult to find a new job. My parents are moving at the end of the month and are now having to make the move with no income from my dad to support them. Edit: this is in New York State [link] [comments]  |
| Company telling me I owe them money after a year of me working and months out of spite Posted: 17 Apr 2019 08:15 AM PDT [Canada, Ontario] So story is, my last day of working for this company was on January 19th. My official end date with the company was on February 8th. Anyhow after last day on the 19th I had not received my check. I went in person on the 26th and informed them I had not received my paycheck. I was told they'd look into it. My from what I can tell from my letter of termination I was decided to be terminated on February the 8th for reasons unrelated this issue. Anyhow now after months of being unable to get into contact with them due to their services never picking up or returning my calls, on April 15th I showed up in person and once again informed them I had not received my last pay check. Now, today on April 17th called me back and sternly told me the following; - I had not received my January 19th paycheck because I in fact, owe them "a lot of money" (never would say how much) due to overtime which was a result of over pay. - They will be taking action and sending me a letter to payback all the money I owe. If I fail to do so, it will be sent to collectors There are a few things here that seem to be eating at me and doesn't seem right.
After saying all that the payroll representative just said a "smart" remark which was "oh you feel targeted that you got money that you never deserved?" and hung up the phone. So right before posting this the payroll representative just called me back. All she told me was; Her: "We could have always taken action but we willingly chose not too" Me: "So then why did you guys suddenly change your mind?" Her: "Because now that you've decided to come back to us we have an obligation to inform you and must take action against this" Me: "But you just said you guys knew about this from the beginning throughout my year working but willingly chose not to take action so there really is no "obligation". You could have called me, sent me a letter, etc, or even informed me while I worked for you guys. If you guys are doing this because you guys felt you wanted use my last paycheck to that debt all you had to do was inform me. I don't see why you guys would just take it, expecting me to just shrug my shoulders not knowing where my pay was then when I ask about it you guys wanna suddenly tell me I owe you 'a lot of money' that you guys now suddenly want me to give back due to systems in place that you guys knew about but never wanted to take action to fix or adjust" Her: "Well I'm not gonna stay on the line so you can hold me and use what I tell you against me" After that she told me if I wanna discuss this further I can come in but will not be talking to me over the phone. I asked her if she could atleast tell me how much money this "a lot is" which should be "a lot" considering it was for a year. But true to her word she said she does have all the information but refuses to talk about it via phone and then threatened me saying whether I wanna give them the money they are now asking for is up to me but appropriate consequences will arise. So I'm no Law expert which is why I'm here and I am aware if you owed money to company due to over pay you're suppose to pay it back obv. But the way they went about this, is this even legal or perhaps is there a way I'm able too fight this? What are your thoughts and recommendations? At this point in time I don't even have any money to give and am currently undergoing the process for EI -It was caused because of an error they were fully aware of throughout my year working there - All the employees from my department got this money as well, even though they first tried denying it - I was never informed this was money I was never suppose to have - They stated they WILLINGLY chose not to take action including simply informing me of this even after I left the company - They just suddenly took my last paycheck from me without even telling me they're taking it for the money they say I owed causing me to believe it was just never sent to me or something - Now that I finally got ahold of them MONTHS after leaving to ask them about last paycheck that I never got they suddenly change their mind out of spite and tell me they want the money [link] [comments]  |
| [Texas] Square fraudulently linked my company with another business and charged for their bills. Posted: 17 Apr 2019 09:23 AM PDT Square has illegitimately tied my business account to another business I have no part of and never heard of. Square never notified me when they tied this company to my account, nor will they provide me any documentation showing the connection between the two accounts. But, they sure were quick to pull $1455 from my account when they felt they were owed this amount by the other companies bad business dealings. They have not answered any of my emails and I feel helpless. How can I get my money back? [link] [comments]  |
| [MO] Seller of our house took the stove despite it being specified in the purchasing agreement. Posted: 17 Apr 2019 12:42 PM PDT My wife and I recently bought a house from as a for sale by owner. The seller was good to work with and we've had no surprises. At our final walk through, we noticed the stove was gone and he told us where we could buy a cheap one. We both thought this was weird but didn't raise the issue. The next day we closed. I went back through the purchase agreement and it states "The Parties agree that all fixtures located on or in the Property, including but not limited to storm windows, screens, shades, blinds, heating systems, HVAC components, stoves, air conditioners… shall be included in the sale of the property." My question: is it too late to raise the issue or should we contact him and negotiate the return of the stove or compensation for a replacement. Thanks. EDIT: Well that worked out nicely. I sent him the purchase agreement and pointed out the language that explained that the stove should have stayed. He agreed, apologized, and is going to return it in a couple days.

| Posted: 16 Apr 2019 09:48 PM PDT Hi, /r/legaladvice I briefly worked at this locally-owned dog daycare (15 employees or so) in California. I could not stand the boss at all because of her micromanagement tactics and overall extremely controlling/negative behavior, so I put in a 3-week notice in March. My last day would be the 3rd. On the 2nd, she cancelled my shifts via the notification app for the 2nd and 3rd but did not contact me. I did not come in to either shift, but called twice after not receiving my last check (I normally got direct deposit). I never signed anything or received word that I would have to pick up a physical paper check. I filed a wage claim after 10 days of no communication. Today, she finally responded to me and sent me an email. This stuck out: "I understand that you finally made contact to inquire regarding your last paycheck after leaving us in the lurch and breaking our equipment. You will need to return all company property if you want to pick up your last paycheck." I did clerical work typing notes on a computer. I never had any complaints and there is zero way I broke anything. She is only now claiming this. I do not have any company property. She is trying to hold my last paycheck hostage and not respond to the wage claim until I comply/respond to her completely false claims. Not sure how to proceed from here. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Apr 2019 09:05 AM PDT I posted a few days ago but it didn't get much traction. If my landlord breaks my lease (ends at the end of July), that has nothing to do with lack of payment, can I pursue damages? The only information I can find is eviction and lease breaks for non payment. [link] [comments]  |
| MA- Minor fender bender, but with a $$$$ car Posted: 17 Apr 2019 07:53 AM PDT I had a minor collision in a parking lot this weekend, but unfortunately with the other party driving a super expensive luxury car. I'm still not convinced I'm at fault, but I think legally I would be. Given the small scale of the damage, we'd discussed me just paying for it out of pocket, but now some things are seeming sketchy. He was driving this car with dealer plates, claimed to not have a registration because of this, and had a MD provisional driver's license. Is this all actually as shady as it seems? Should I just go through insurance to cover my bases? Help me, r/legaladvice! You're my only hope! [link] [comments]  |
| Landlord Tenant Security Deposit Posted: 17 Apr 2019 10:22 AM PDT California law states security deposits are due within 21 days of end of lease. If the deposit is 2 days late can landord still deduct for damages or do I get a full return? If I sue the landlord for not returning full deposit due to being late can the landlord still counter sue for reimbursement of damages? [link] [comments]  |
