| (MA) Wedding venue closed down permanently without notice and won't return deposit Posted: 22 Mar 2020 07:36 AM PDT My fiance and I were due to get married at this venue on May 30th. We had a signed contract back in February of 2019 and had placed a large deposit of $10,000. Obviously, with everything going on we were starting to except the wedding to either get canceled or postponed. What we didn't except is to find out that they were closing their doors permanently by reading an online article. Apparently they were having major money issues that nobody was aware of and they just couldn't survive any disruption in their business. This was last Thursday we found out and the article says that they laid off all their employees the day before on Wednesday. The only contact info we had was for our wedding coordinators who I'm assuming also lost their jobs. I've tried calling and emailing them, but have not been able to get a hold of anyone. We've basically been ghosted and they still have our money. For anyone wondering, the deposit was paid in the form of three separate checks. What can we do at this point? I haven't been able to find contact info for the owners online. Should we file in small claims even though our amount exceeds the MA limit? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:49 AM PDT Employer has already cut us from salary to hourly wages because we had to transition to a three day work week due to COVID-19. They are indicating that if they have to shut down completely, we will not be able to use our vacation time and/or will lose all our vacation time if we file for unemployment. I have gone through California's department of labor website but have not been able to find any relevant information for our situation. Was wondering if anyone had any insight on what is employee are entitled to whether we work for a small business or not and/or if you can send any link where I can educate myself further in the matter.

| Posted: 21 Mar 2020 03:15 PM PDT Sorry I meant April not March The above. Someone else bought our building in January, and they have been gutting units non stop. Frankly me and my family only realized how shitty this building was after we moved in (a lot of cockroaches, and no attempts to solve the problem). I told him we could be out by June, and he told us that on April 1st, anything in my unit will be removed, my family will be removed. My car will be towed if it is still here after midnight on April 1st. I am 100% sure what he is doing is fucking illegal, however the landlord tenant bureau seems to be shutdown to the coronavirus. Can someone tell me if push comes to shove on April 1st, will the police side with me? or should i start preparing alternative arrangements? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:55 AM PDT She's in isolation, the hospital wouldn't take her, saying "30 days ago we wouldn't have let you leave the hospital with you symptoms, but we have to keep our beds available for the most severe cases". So she's home and I'm her only care. I don't know what to do about my job, if I'm fired we're both going to suffer a lot, financially in addition to the disease. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:02 PM PDT Okay this is a lot of context. I do a mild form of sex work, where I spend time with men who are very submissive, and they want me to control their lives. I have never touched any of these men sexually ever in my life. It mostly involves going to dinner with them and them giving me money, gifts, etc. This is not only for me, bit my roommate has come with me to these events before, these men have paid for dates with me and my boyfriend, etc. I am fairly open with all of this with everyone in my life, even my fairly conservative parents. I've told them these fans of mine send me these gifts and payments, they think it's weird but whatever. That's the background. My roommate moved in, lied to me about getting approval from the landlord for her dog. Caused a huge upheaval and then abandoned the lease rather than rehoming the dog. As my roommate and I had been friends for years, I covered first month, security, and brokers fee (totaling $3750). She paid half of first month's rent, and now she is abandoning the lease without giving me time to find someone else by April. She also posted a huge Facebook status misrepresenting the situation to get people to bash me and harass me. Her cousin, a paralegal, got in touch with me to try and mediate. My roommate wants to be removed from the lease so she is not liable for future rent. I told her that if she signs a contract agreeing to pay me for the rest of first month's rent, April rent, and broker fee ($3100 total) over the next 5 months that I would take her off the lease. However, she has continued to make things very difficult. She is supposed to move out tmrw. Her cousin got in touch with me again today saying she didn't agree to pay April rent. I said okay, I am not comfortable removing her from the lease and the legal liability until the contract was signed or if she didn't agree to those terms we could go to small claims court. Her cousin then said via Facebook messenger to "remove her from the lease, or we'll tell your dad about your job." I informed them that blackmail is a felony and that this was harassment. Her cousin continued to say that "daddy won't like your Instagram" etc. So I blocked her cousin. At this point what are my steps. How can I protect myself legally and financially from these horrible people? I want to remove her from the lease so she no longer has any legal claim to the apartment. However, if i do that then she won't be liable for April rent. Should I just cut that loss and take her to court and see if the court will still have her cover it? Will the court take this attempt at blackmail into account? Can I press any criminal charges for harassment or blackmail? Please help. [link] [comments]  |
| (OH) Is This Disability Discrimination? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 06:35 AM PDT So I just got written up by my property manager. I had signs put up on my front door: "Immunocompromised person lives here, to prevent COVID-19 exposure, please leave all deliveries at the door." And "Hard-of-hearing person lives here. Please knock loudly or contact me by phone if you can. Thank you for your patience." My landlord removed them and wrote me up for "making unapproved alterations." NO WHERE in my lease does it say I can't have something outside on my front door. In fact, I had a big Halloween decoration on my door for almost two months last October/November and that was never an issue. These signs lasted three days before they were taken down and I was written up. As section 8 partially pays for apartment since I'm on SSI, should I contact HUD? Is this discrimination? I don't have a light-flickering doorbell yet, and I legitimately can not hear someone knocking at my door unless they knock really, really loud. And with the other sign, because I'm having to semi-quarantine myself right now, I've had to get a lot more delivered that usual. Before the sign, delivery drivers weren't paying attention to the delivery instructions and doing no-contact deliveries, which is why I put the sign up. I'm trying to save my life here; catching this virus would be lethal for me due to my disability. So again, is this discrimination? I can have a Halloween decoration up for months, but not a medically needed sign to alert people coming to my door of these things? I tried to contact my landlord about this, but I can't. I've been having issues for a while now with being able to contact the management office. Just last week I was locked out of my apartment building because they installed a keypad lock on the doors while I was at a doctor appointment and didn't tell me the code. I had to wait in my car for hours for a neighbor to come out because all the phone numbers I have to contact them have been disconnected, including the after-hours maintenance. The office is also never open during posted open hours. I had to ask multiple people in my building what the code was and most of them also didn't know. We were locked in the building all weekend, unable to get back in if we left, until we finally found someone in the building who knew the code. If I hadn't found out the code from a neighbor, I still would be either locked in or out of my apartment building. I haven't been able to talk to them about that whole disaster in itself, let alone the sign thing. I'm so frustrated about everything here and I'm not sure how to proceed. [link] [comments]  |
| Someone stole my $2,000 mountain bike from my apartment complex bicycle storage room Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:44 AM PDT The lease states that were not allowed to store our bicycles in our apartments, so the only other option is to store it in the bicycle storage room. The room is locked and requires a key fob to get in. Every tenant has a key fob so it could have been anyone who lives here or even a worker who works here because its a new building. Someone else had their bicycle tire pump stolen the other day as well. There is a camera right outside the room that faces the area so they likely were on camera unless they covered it up. I've contacted my landlord and the apartment manager. I've also filed a police report online. I won't hear back from any of them until hopefully Monday. If i dont get it back im planning to go through my renters insurance to get compensation. From a Google search, it looked like they would cover it. Just wondering if there is anything else I should do. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 01:02 AM PDT I've been working on starting an earthquake preparedness company for the past half year or so, and as a result have cases of hazmat coveralls (blood & viral resistant), goggles (some non-vented), and packaged pairs of gloves, etc in storage. I was in the process of evaluating gear to see what I what brands I wanted to sell, and then COVID started. Unfortunately, the storage company I've been using decided to bar access as of Thursday night -- with no warning given to any tenants, not even a call or email! During the weeks prior, they gave me multiple assurances over the phone & in person that they would make arrangements for possible gov-mandated changes/restrictions. On Thursday at 6:45pm (after the govenor's announcement) they told me that they would give 24 hours notice to allow people to get their business supplies out, at the very least. But then when I showed up to get my stuff Friday morning, there was a sign on the door saying "Closed due to Governor's Coronavirus Order". Now, the corporate office is saying their lawyers told them not to let anyone in. (Meanwhile, the other storage facilities in the area are classifying themselves as "essential businesses" and staying open.) Thankfully, out of an abundance of caution, I took some stuff out before then, but I live in a studio apartment, so I could only fit so much. For the past few weeks I've been packing up PPE "care packages" and mailing donations of these supplies to various health care workers (including ICU hcws & infectious disease docs), CERT members, and other high risk people, and I would like to continue to do so. Having this stuff sit, inaccessible, for months while people die from lack of protective gear would be both maddening and tragic. What kind of lawyer might deal with this type of situation? My ideal resolution would to get access for one day so I could move all my stuff out and end my leases there. That way on top of donating much of my product, I don't also go bankrupt from continuing to pay rent for months for units I can't even access. I can move to a unit at one of the other storage companies blocks away which are staying open. (I need somewhere to divide up and package this stuff for sending out.) Thank you in advance for any suggestions! --------- Also, The 3 reasons why I think the storage company's refusal of tenant access might perhaps not be in keeping with the CA governor's order (which what they used to justify not giving access on Friday):

| CA - Landlord wants to show property during Stay-At-Home Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:48 AM PDT As the title states, we are in California currently under Stay-At-Home. The rental house was sold to an investor who wants to show the property. We have been provided a 90 day to vacate. One dilemma is that we are unable to even view new rental properties. Those who we have contacted have told us they are not exempt from Stay-At-Home and cannot show properties to prospective new renters. The realtors had even told us to deny entrance against the lease as this should not be happening. Apparently evictions have been halted so they believe it is a safe move. I like to play everything by the books and do everything right but risking the safety of my family against the orders of the state seems to be an unnecessary risk. I know the landlord has the right to show the property given notice but do state laws/orders take precedence here? Can I make any legal request for the landlord to abide by state orders while the Stay-At-Home is in place? [link] [comments]  |
| Pandemic, self Isolation and bedbugs Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:32 AM PDT So I am currently on lockdown for corvid 19 and last night I found a bed bug in my apartment (two bites over two weeks). I had written one off as a spider bite but now I have found a living adult bed bug. My landlord had previously hidden the fact that my upstairs neighbor was being treated for bedbugs. She had shown up one day claiming to be spraying for roaches. Now I am in lockdown because I work in a high volume restaurant and there was an infection listed to have visited my bar. She wants to spray on Tuesday and as the requirements go, I am supposed to pack all my belongings in bags and have some one tromp through my apartment and spray the place down. My 2 month old furniture will definitely be ruined and I have no where to bring myself or my pets. Can I pass the charges for a professional cleaning to be done of my place after the spray to my landlord? Are they responsible for putting me up? Someone help. In toronto Ontario [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:20 AM PDT Hello Everyone, I was recently contacted by whom was going to be my new employer and advised that they were rescinding the employment offer that they made to me due to the coronavirus situation, they claimed that they put on a hiring freeze and will not hire at all until everything goes back to normal. I had already put my two week notice to my current employer about 8 days ago so basically only had one more week to go before joining the new employer. I would like to know if this is legal? Since I was technically almost finished with my onboarding with the new employer and now they take the offer back. What can I do if my current employer does not want to keep me? Can I sue the company that took the offer back? What are my options here? By the way I am in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Thank you for your help! [link] [comments]  |
| Temporary unemployment requirements Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:06 AM PDT Hi, so like many of us I'm in a tricky position employment-wise due to the current pandemic. My office shut down until further notice on Thursday. I work for a federal contractor, currently on a government contract in Tennessee USA. During the shutdown I will receive no pay, only benefits. My company is huge - at least 10,000 employees. They are still paying those who are working from home but no one from my office as our jobs require us to be on-site. My SO and I purchased our first house last year. We can't continue the mortgage payments for long on one salary. I've received no word beyond the fact that I'm not getting paid during this time from my supervisor. Does continuing to receive benefits disqualify me from receiving any sort of state assistance? *Also if I'm not being paid but the company is providing my normal benefits, will I be seeing additional deductions from my paychecks in the future for coverage during this time? My supervisor has been useless during all of this. Thanks for any clarity y'all can give me on either of these matters *edit: grammar, location [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:29 AM PDT Basically she was told she needed to be out by the first of April. I stuck up and got her another month, only to find out a week later she was talking to other men. As such I said that she needs to be out by the 7th, one week longer than my parents who pay the bills and havent got rent this month were going to give. Her dad told her she should fight to stay because she has rights as a tennant. Never dealt with this before so I have no idea how true it is. Shes lived here for the past year and 4 months, but again, never signed anything or got a single thing in writing. [link] [comments]  |
| Does my landlord have any permissions to paint before I move out? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:51 AM PDT [Ontario] We've put in our 60 days notice and intend to move out by may 1st. The property manager called me and started going on about how he will get in contact to come in and inspect it and start painting early april. We have animals and with the moving dont really want to have to deal with him in our place painting. Does he have any legal right to do so? In the lease it says they can come and inspect for damages or fix damages as need be. I don't see how repainting would be able to fall under this but if it does that would be nice to know [link] [comments]  |
| Lost my restaurant job from corona, unemployment claim denied Posted: 21 Mar 2020 05:34 PM PDT So my restaurant job is shut down like everyone else's, and we're all laid off. I applied for unemployment right away, and got a letter in the mail saying my claim was denied because I didn't make $2600 in 2020. I think, that can't be right, I work at a really upscale place in Westchester, NY and I definitely made more than that in the last 3 months. All of our tips, including those we received in cash, are included in our weekly paychecks. I worked on average four nights a week, but since winter is our slow season (and we were even slower because of the virus) managers made lots of staff cuts (for instance, 6 servers are on the schedule, but three are contacted and told not to come to work that night). I look at my last paystub, and realize they're only counting my hourly wages, not the tips that make up the majority of my income. The hourly tipped wage in my area of NY is 8.65. Is this really happening? I'm going to submit a request for reconsideration, tomorrow and I've included my most recent paystub (which has all of my earnings there from this year to date), as well as printed correspondence with managers where I was asked not to come in (slow nights because of corona). Do you think this will work? Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 01:07 PM PDT I got a letter from my extended warranty company for my car that says they can no longer follow the contract at the stated price, and prices will rise $150-$500 a year. I just bought this warranty in November 2019, and it's a 20-year extended warranty. I'm going to call tomorrow, but I want to be sure in what I say to them. I thought if there's a contract, you have to follow it to the end? I may have the contract itself somewhere, but I've since moved and would have to do some digging. But (as someone with no knowledge of contracts/anything legal) in general, are they allowed to just say they can't honor my contract I just signed 4 months ago at the price I signed at? Edit: I bought the warranty in MD, I'm now in NC. I'm not sure if that changes anything. [link] [comments]  |
| (NYC) Work threatening to not rehire if we get laid off and file for unemployment. Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:56 PM PDT My apologies for the bad formatting, I never really make textposts. I work at a cafe in NYC that's a part of a small local chain (~20 total locations in NYC/NYS) We are currently still open because we can serve take-out and do deliveries under the current lockdown rules. A few days ago, a higher up had told my manager that if the laws change and we do have to close, we will all be laid off and rehired once we are allowed to reopen. But, he had also told him that if we file for unemployment during that time that we will not be eligible for re-hire. In case this does happen, is there no laws or anything to protect us? Because if this happens we will no longer be employees anyways, so it seems like a sort of loophole to not have to pay us at all. [link] [comments]  |
| Neighbor cut my hedges to the stumps Posted: 22 Mar 2020 02:12 PM PDT https://imgur.com/gallery/iT10PT9[yard pictures](https://imgur.com/gallery/iT10PT9) Background info: massachusetts. We have lived here ~1 year. angry-neighbor is a landlord and doesnt live on site; many student renters in multiple units. my house, and other-side neighbor are single family homes. we have/had big tall hedges for privacy on both sides, on our property, and inside those a 4ft fence as the previous owner had a dog who could escape through the hedges. The back fence is taller and was financed as a joint effort by back neighbors and previous owners. longer-term, we planned on changing out the hedges as they are difficult to maintain, but have especially kept them tall on angry-neighbor side for privacy from the dozens of loud renters coming and going from that house, and knew the 4foot fence wouldn't be enough. ————- So, we finally have a day off (medical workers are currently pedal to the metal during the COVID crisis) and look in the yard to find the angry-neighbor has hacked down almost all the hedges on that side and piled the severed branches between our houses (along with an old couch, bookcase, broken door etc) and the fence doesnt really look stable without the hedge backer, not to mention the hedges are clearly ours as theryre mirrored on the other side of the property. ——— as we are currently in a state of emergency and many city offices are closed right now, i'm not sure if i should engage with angry neighbor or wait until i can have the land surveyed and an answer as to whether hedges count under tree law, and whether my fence can be reinforced. ———— BTW he is nicknamed angry neighbor for this story as the few times we have seen him doing work on his rental property, he's yelling and swearing and hollering at anyone who gets close (tennants. we have never spoken to him) I do not want to create animosity with a next-door owner, but really don't have time to fix my fence to keep my pet safe, and figure out a privacy replacement while working crazy hours. pictures of both sides of yard included. I don't want to get too close to take stump pictures in case he engages. the hedges look much nicer in the summer with leaves :) ————- tldr: neighbir cut my hedges and destabilized fence. are hedges covered under tree law? Is my fence his responsibility to fix now? what should i do immediately while practicing social distancing? [link] [comments]  |
| Employer and Union Wage Dispute Posted: 22 Mar 2020 02:08 PM PDT Hey there. I'm in quite a pickle and I have no idea what my legal options are. For transparency, I already have hired a lawyer, but given the COVID19 nightmare, my lawyer is currently not seeing anyone in office, they are reviewing the documents and information I have provided. I will follow up with them later this week. I am a nurse in Idaho. I was an LVN for 13 years prior and have recently graduated and passed my boards. I am now an RN. I have been working at a local hospital for the past 7 years. This hospital is part of a larger system. After my graduation, I applied and was accepted for a fellowship program in a specialty unit at the main hospital in my city. Both hospitals are owned by the same parent organization. The hospital I was at is not part of the local nursing union. The new unit I was hired in is. Without going into specifics, my new job would give me an approximate 7% increase from my prior wage I was receiving. I gladly accepted and started my new job. I am thoroughly enjoying my new role and enjoying the challenges this unit has brought professionally. A month into my new role, the HR department called me up and said there was a mistake in calculating my wage. The union contract does not take into consideration any prior experience as an LVN. HR said that my new wage would be what a starting RN with zero years experience would. This equates to a 22% reduction from my PREVIOUS wage and nearly 30% reduction from what I was offered. I did not accept or sign anything stating i was agreeing to a wage adjustment. I don't know what to do. I cannot financially drop down to the adjusted wage. I left my job in good faith that I was going to be paid this salary. I cannot go back to my old job because it has already been filled. I cant transfer to a different department because I would still be bound by the union contract. Unfortunately, the other hospital in the area does not have a similar specialty unit that I have been wanting to get into for years. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| (Colorado) ex-Wife got blackout drunk with my children present Posted: 21 Mar 2020 10:04 PM PDT I'm going to try to make this short. At 5:30 PM I dropped my daughters off with their mother for her scheduled time (Saturday->Tuesday). She got a hotel room for the night near where I live (apparently someone died of COVID-19 in her apartment complex so she wigged out and didn't want to stay there) and planned to spend a few nights there with our daughters. At approximately 9:00 PM I get a call from one of the hotel staff telling me that the cops had been called and that she appeared to be so drunk that she couldn't get up and was incoherent (this is from my perspective, I'll include the fuller story below). I got there as the cops were showing up and they eventually asked me to go up to the room to get my daughters and I took them home after waiting around for a bit to be excused by the officers. The fuller story, and I'm piecing this together from my two daughters (7 & 4) and the hotel staff, is that they ordered a pizza and when it was delivered, she was so incoherent that the delivery driver actually called the cops because she was worried about her welfare. In the meantime, my oldest daughter became so scared that she left the hotel room and started running up and down the halls until she finally found a staff member to help her (thank God I drilled my phone number into her). After police and fire show up, she refused all medical treatment and they left (they told me she didn't meet the bar for them to take her without consent). What are my legal options here, especially in the short term? If she demands the girls back tomorrow morning, do I have to give them up? I'm legitimately scared of what might happen in the next several days. Over the long term, I can apply for a restriction to her parenting time and I plan on doing that ASAP although with this COVID-19 thing going on I don't know what the courts look like right now. ** I should note that she never had a drinking problem when we were together (split February 2019), but she apparently enrolled in AA about a month ago due to alcohol abuse. Thank you so much for your advice. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:42 AM PDT I have a friend who works full time in Georgia and is paid by the hour. He has been told to not come to work for (at least) 3 weeks. But he and many coworkers were told they are "on call" and are not allowed to leave town at all. They will not be paid. There was no such thing as "on call" with this job before now. The job involves animal care, but other employees are staying on site to care for the animals. "On call" seems to mean that you might be called in if an employee that is here gets sick. Does this type of "on call" go with both being unpaid and the vague travel restriction? They told employees 2 weeks ago that anyone traveling more than one hour away would have to quarantine for 14 days before returning to work. So it seems like the travel restriction has more to do with health concerns than simply having the employees available in a timely manner. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:19 PM PDT Hey quick question. So my gf opted out of the 401k plan at her place of work, but her job has been taking money out of her checks for it still. She called today to figure out the issue and apparently they have an account for her for the 401k but none of the money goes into it since she opted out. We live in Kirksville, Missouri. I feel like she could sue for this but I'm not 100% sure about it, and wanted to get advise before proceeding? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:28 AM PDT So he's alleging our home is unsafe because the boy gets bit with mosquitos and sometimes has small bruises. He also gets similar bruises at their house. The problem is, they've been taking pictures and mounting a case. On the other hand, our lawyer says he's got a mountain of contempts including this last huge one where he's keeping the child against our will indefinitely during 50/50 visitation. We're also using the fact that he drinks to access on a daily basis and his two domestic violence's against him. One of the domestic violence's was against the mother while she was holding the child. He's also claiming that the fact that I'm a convicted felon is a problem for them. Our lawyer is not talking to us much, but I think the only thing he has that matters is photo evidence that a 3 year old gets minor bruises. I just want an unbiased opinion because when the our lawyer does talk to us he acts like it's a landslide. So I'm just wondering who's got a stronger case. His side says bruises, bug bites, felon boyfriend. Our side says domestic violence, alcoholic, and repeated contempts for not returning the child on time. [link] [comments]  |
