| Posted: 28 Nov 2020 03:52 AM PST Hi, I'm experiencing something that I'm not equipped to deal with and thought I would ask for some advice. I'll try and keep it succinct. I've known this friend for about 10 yrs who lost her job in the San Fran just before COVID hit . She seemed a bit overwhelmed and in distress so I invited her to come stay with me in central California while she sorted things out. She's a trust fund baby and still has her apt in $5000/mo apt in SF, but weeks turned into months and now it's been 3 mo and I can't get her to leave. I hadn't seen her in awhile and since then she developed a pretty bad alcohol problem and after speaking with her mother, apparently she is struggling with mental health issues as well. She periodically blacks out and enters this fits of pure rage. She's half my size, so I'm not afraid physically but what comes out of her mouth is pretty horrible. Finally after watching her almost kill herself or someone else driving very drunk, I just couldn't take it anymore and asked her to leave. She did but came back the next day threatening to kill herself. A week ago, I needed to leave town and she was threatening to break things while I was gone. I told her that if she did, I would file s police report. She preemptively made 6 calls to 911 and said I was threatening her. She even told an officer I would kill her if she tried to leave. Thankfully they recognized crazy and only asked me to help them understand what was going on. I asked them if they could help me get her out and they told me that although she pays no bills, rent and receives no mail at my address, she established residency after 3 days and the only way to get her out is file a 30 day eviction. I honestly feel like she is setting me up for something and I'm kind of afraid. I'm a 190 lbs man and she is a 91 lbs beautiful woman, who even with all her struggles is very smart. I'm literally about to leave the house I pay a mortgage on and rent an Airbnb just to remove myself from the situation. Any advice? [link] [comments]  |
| Can my landlord end my lease to sell the house? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 05:56 AM PST I live in Pennsylvania. I signed a fixed term, 1 year lease that ends in July. My landlord has decided to sell the house and wants me to move out within 60 days. From everything I can find online, she can't do that, my lease stays with the property. Is this true? Can I legally stay in the house? I understand that I may also have the right to negotiate a "cash for keys" situation. Would I be able to negotiate say, I'll move out early but not within 60 days? There is no mention of house sale or the landlord being able to end the lease early in the lease that I signed. Secondarily, am I required to do anything in the house to make it presentable for showings? The place isn't a dirty disaster or anything, but the realtor wants to come to "make notes on what needs to be done for photos and showing." I have a feeling that I am in no way required to do that. Thirdly, am I required to vacate the property for showings? Thank you all in advance I am in a really shitty situation at the moment. I'm finding it impossible to find a new rental in the middle of the pandemic during the holidays and I really don't want to end up staying on a couch with someone for who knows how long. Moving in with family is not an option because I'm a veterinary nurse working in a large hospital and still dealing with the public so I don't want to risk bringing home covid. [link] [comments]  |
| being forced out of our Home Contract. Posted: 27 Nov 2020 11:32 PM PST Hello, me and my dad who is a 59 Year old Vet, are in the process of moving and we ran into a very serious situation where we could be homeless. as of right now we are living in a Poor Condition (Fixer Upper) Trailer that we sold to a family for 10000. We told the family upon purchase that they should be able to move into the home by the 1st of December, we already made an offer on a new house that was accepted and everything was going smooth. We made a Contract saying that we will be out by or before the 1st of December. But the house that we bought had to be fixed up ( orders from the VA) so it could pass Inspection. The people fixed the house and it passes inspection, but it took them so long to fix the house that the closing date had to be Pushed forward 2 times. and we agreed to it because the real estate agent said that we should still be in the house by the 1st of December. The people who own the house also have some things that are left in the house such as a few beds and a single dresser along with some random junk in the basement. (Not a-lot of stuff at all, the house is 90% Empty). We Closed on the house on the 20th of November then 3 days later we get a call from our Real estate agent saying that the owner of the house said we "should" be able to move in on the 25th, so we rented a Uhaul and started packing our things to move on the 25th. The 25th comes around and i call our real-estate agent who says that the people aren't answering their phones because Thanksgiving. Ok no big deal i thought, ill just call them tomorrow. So the next day i call the real estate agent again and ask if we can move in and she says that we have to wait another "week or so and that's not guaranteed" and its already the 27th and the people who bought our house have to be in by the 1st by contract. we explained this to our Real-estate agent who proceeded to say it was ok, but now its clearly not ok. because thanks to her and her False information that we should be perfectly fine. We are now going to be either homeless, or facing a Lawsuit for Eviction. and me and my dad have nowhere to go and we cant do anything because the people whos house we bought still have 24 days to move the stuff out so we can move in. I don't know if their is some law that stops people from just being Homeless Especially a Veteran in this kind of situation, When we got screwed over by our own Real-estate agent and the peoples house we bought Arnt actually living in the house, they already moved to a different house that they are currently living in, so we have absolutely no idea what we are suppose to do.

| My manager reduced my wage without notifying me Posted: 28 Nov 2020 06:52 AM PST I'm located in North Carolina, 25F here. I was going through my pay stubs and realized that my manager (I work for a corporate pet store) reduced my pay by almost two dollars without notifying me at the end of September. I thought maybe I was spending a little too much on Christmas this year because I had less money than usual. I wish that was the case. After realizing what happened, I approached him after stewing on it overnight. I've read that it's absolutely illegal, but he was trying to defend himself by saying I should've expected it by taking another role in the company. The role change was made early in June, so I don't understand why it took until the end of September for my wage to decrease. Others in the company have taken other roles with no pay decrease. He said he just "didn't realize" he needed to change it. I told him what he did was illegal and he accused me of threatening him. I demanded back-pay and for my wage to be re-instated. I did not agree to my new wage. As the leader of the store, he blamed the manager directly above me for not "notifying" me of the changes, but from what I understand no changes can be made until I agree to the new contract. I told him if things didn't go back, I would put in my two weeks. He said to give him a few days to talk to the district manager. I tried reaching out to human resources but they won't be available until Monday. Once my issue came to light, my coworker realized that there was a discrepancy in her wage agreement as well. Without her approval. I have to go back into work tonight and I'm nervous. I can't live on this wage he assigned me, and he told me straight up that I wouldn't see any back-pay. I know I caught him off-guard. What should I do at this point? Contact a lawyer? The district manager? Thank you for reading. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 27 Nov 2020 09:22 PM PST I'm a 20 years old female student living in Quebec, Canada. I moved in with my roommate (33,M) last July. I met him through an add that he posted when he was looking for a roommate. He seemed like a pretty decent guy, no red flags about him so I agreed to move in. He told me he has a cat that rarely comes out of the storage room and is very shy. That's all. Turns out, the cat, Gus, is a living demon. Usually, I'm very good with animals. My mom always said I was gifted because I've always been able to approach, tame and comfort any animal I've ever met. But not this cat. Gus has some serious behavioral issues. At first, it started with him pooping and peeing everywhere in the apartment, especially on the couch. No big deal, just gotta clean it and it's forgotten. It never came out of the storage room, to the point where my roommate had to put his food and water bowls and his litter box in the storage room. I get it, I'm an intruder in his space. I thought if I gave the cat lots of space and let it take it's time, it would get used to my presence. It did the complete opposite. Since September, the cat waits for me to wake up and get out of my bedroom in the morning, and attacks me. It claws my legs and hisses and freaks out as soon as it sees me, and I almost never really notice it first, as it hides and waits for me to get close enough. So almost every morning, I get surprise-attacked as soon as I wake up. I told my roommate multiple times about this, and he never cared. The cat also screams bloody murder every single night, it's so loud even the neighbors hear it (we live in an apartment building). The cat really sounds like it's in agony, it's really frightening. The cat shows ALL signs of anxiety disorder. I've tried every way of talking to my roommate about it, even offered to pay for half of the vet bill if we take it there, but my roommate doesn't want to hear it. He keeps buying essential oil diffuser and catnip, expecting it to magically solve the issue. I suggested once that my roommate put the cat on antidepressants, and my roommate was so offended by it, he kicked me out and gave me 1 month to find another place and leave. He said that clearly I'm not compatible with the cat, so I have to move. I didn't sign the lease when I moved in (I know, foolish), so I found another place and I'm moving in December 12th. I have proof of every single discussion we've had, since we only talk through texting, due to him working night shifts so I barely see him. What makes my blood boil is that this poor cat is suffering, yet my roommate doesn't want to do anything about it. He's never taken the cat to the vet, he's never even held the cat and he never pets it, since it's always in the storage room. Tonight, I was on my way to leave the apartment, when the cat jumped out of nowhere and started attacking me. Since I'm getting used to his attacks, I always wear jeans, thick slippers and my winter coat when I'm outside my bedroom, as protection. But the cat bit my hand and wouldn't let go. I tried to shake it off but it just kept digging his teeth in. Eventually it let go and i ran to the neighbors, screaming that I needed help. I was covered in blood and having a panic attack, so they took me to the hospital. I had to get stitches, antibiotics and I'm on sick leave until December 1rst. The cat bit so deep my muscle was exposed but luckily intact. I still can't move my thumb or wrist because of the swelling. I have proof of all of this (pictures, screenshots). Can I sue my roommate? For what motives? Can I do something about the cat? Can I call someone to remove it from here and give it an proper shot at life? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Nov 2020 08:00 AM PST For background I work in a high end small chain grocery store near Portland Oregon, technically in Clackamas County. I work in a department that directly handles food. I try my best to be careful about Covid as I babysit my sister's children some afternoons. My sister has breast cancer and is in recovery from a mastectomy so staying clean and healthy is important. My schedule has me in the store for a few hours before the store opens. About half the staff of the store do not wear masks or wears masks improperly before the store opens. Everyone in my department are good about wearing masks regardless of weather we are open or not. When the doors open all the masks go on properly. When employees are in the break room or in the back rooms the masks often come off again. I stopped shopping at the store as I don't like the idea of buying food that coworkers have been breathing on all morning. But I can't regulate other departments so I keep my disgust to myself. The only employee that I have a real problem with is the grocery manager, GM, who NEVER wears a mask when the store is closed or not in view of customers. He works the main area of the store and touches everything. Every so often he has to come into my department to set displays or delivering stuff we use. Once in the past, about two months ago, I politely asked GM to wear a mask when in my department. He rolled his eyes and went about his job staying maskless. The day before Thanksgiving GM came over to refill a display, again maskless. I walked over keeping the counter between us to ask him again to wear a mask if he's going to be touching things I have to work with all day. He got very upset and started a profanity filled rant. He yelled about how masks don't work, I need to mind my own business, what my problem with him was, and that I was a bitch. There was a lot of f bombs littered throughout the shouting as well. I told him my problem was him breathing on everything. He shouted "ya, I am" before dramatically huffing great breaths over me and the counter. Between these breaths and his shouting he got spit all over my upper face. I felt his gross spry on my skin and eyes. In addition to my face, be also managed to cover our food counter with his saliva. I left to go wash my face and cry a bit. There was no upper management there yet so I waited about an hour till one came in for work. I reported what happened and was assured by the store assistant manager they would do something about it. GM continued to work his normal shift for the rest of the day. He approached me in the break room later. I didn't say anything and he came up to about three feet away and asked if I was going to "mean mug" him all day. Later that day I went to the store manager to get information about what was going to happen. I was told that it was too busy with Thanksgiving to deal with it and they would look into it later after the holiday. Later in the afternoon I got an email from the store manager saying. "This incident with GM will be taken very seriously. There will be consequences for his actions. As I said, the day before a major holiday makes it difficult to properly process the incident, getting both sides of the story, talking to witnesses, etc. I assure you, this WILL be handled. I did get a chance to watch the video and although there is no sound, his aggression is clear." The next day, Thanksgiving, I got to work and GM is working his normal shift. He had no mask on and spend the morning smirking at me before the store opened. I'm now on my weekend and seething over what happened. I've chosen not to visit my sister for at least a week to be on the safe side. I feel like what happened was illegal or goes against state regulations but I don't know who I could talk to about it. I'm in Oregon, Clackamas County. I feel like the management in this store is allowed reckless behavior that is putting myself and the community at risk. My requests for this to be addressed continues to be ignored. I feel powerless and ignored and dirty. Does anyone have any suggestions about legally what I can do to protect myself any my community?

| Should I report negligence (nursing facility)? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 08:45 AM PST My mom recently had to get admitted to a "skilled nursing facility/rehab" after breaking her leg. She can barely move and has metastasis of cancer throughout her body so she's often in pain and needs assistance. I was not allowed to go in and see her because of COVID and she was calling me crying because she was hungry or uncomfortable. I would be on the phone with her, asking her if she pushed the nurse button and she said she did. No one would even come, it would be like 40-50+ minutes, a tech might poke their head in like "the nurse will come" and no one would show up until I called the facility to complain. This happened almost every day for 2 weeks. I've finally told them to move her to the hospital cause she is so unhappy. They would not do things they said they would. I'm very upset about the whole experience and I wonder if I should report them for negligence. The idea of someone being in that facility that doesn't have anyone advocating for them makes me actually sick to think about. Are there laws about how quickly a nurse has to respond to a call light? I feel like they were just intentionally ignoring it and my mom was screaming "help me" on the phone. She is suffering from some delirium but I don't think that is an excuse to just ignore her and not even treat her like a human being. Location: Kansas [link] [comments]  |
| My "tenant" refuses to talk to me. Posted: 28 Nov 2020 10:37 AM PST This all started in the beginning of 2018 with the passing of my father. I inherited my childhood home from him. When I took over ownership my dad had already had tenants downstairs. A very sweet older couple that have lived down there for the past 30 years. (They also had a son, 40ish years old who didn't live with them but would move back home every time he had girlfriend problems.) My father had a deal with them where their rent was only 440 a month for a 3 bedroom apartment. I told both of them when I moved in I had no plans of kicking them out and I would keep any agreements my dad had with them. A new lease was never written. At the end of 2019 the Husband passed away. Leaving just the mother downstairs alone. By the end of February She was taken away in an ambulance to a rehabilitation center. I talked to the son in person the next day and asked him if everything was ok. He told me him and his siblings wanted to get her back in this apartment and that they are trying to help her walk again. This was all fine with me as long as they kept paying rent I didnt really care. Then March 2020 hit and everything went quiet. In july they stopped paying rent. Then the hiding started. My neighbors Started noticing the son sneaking stuff out of the house in the middle of the night and at times when my car wasn't there. This is when my phone calls and text started. Voicemail after voicemail. Attempts to contact the other kids all lead to dead ends. By October I decided I would post a notice on their door. I'm not gonna lie to you this notice sucked. It was something I found online. My hope was that this notice would help him smarten up and take this seriously and just talk to me about what he's plans are. Instead it completely backfired. " Take me to court you little shit" "Fucking scumload" " you've StOlEn FrOm Me" (just not true) " good luck kicking out a sick woman" 2 weeks later and the mother passed. Again I had no knowledge of her worsening condition because I haven't had any contact with anyone. The son still hasn't spoken to me since February besides some really angry texts. I waited a few more weeks hoping the son or one of the daughters would reach out to me. But I've heard nothing. (Even after I've called and left messages. Even sent letters to the address on the older checks and no response). I dont want backrent. I dont want them to clean the place. I just want them to be done with the apartment. They have definitely come and cleared stuff out But they've also left other things. The Son has threatened legal action so I don't want to just put a padlock on the door and make a whole new situation for myself. I posted a new 90 day notice on the door ( That might even be over kill Because technically there is no one to Evict ) I've called the son about 6 times since then. I've sent the notice as a verified letter to his sister and his workplace. This is all in preparation for the court. I don't want to go to court I just want him to come get his stuff and to be done with all this. The 90 day ends in February 2021 What should I do next? If I wait until February and take him to court is it gonna be the giant headache I think it is, or will it be open and shut? Am i doing everything right? If I just put a padlock on the door and told him he doesn't live here anymore would that work? I'm only 22 this is all very new to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and im open to any questions you might have about the situation. Aslo this takes place in New York State. [link] [comments]  |
| Charged After Being Exonerated Posted: 28 Nov 2020 12:20 AM PST I live in Los Angeles County in California and in March of this year (2020) I was charged with multiple misdemeanors in relation to driving under the influence of prescription medications. I was arrested and bailed out later that night ~3:00AM (the next day). I showed up to court on my arraignment date, but my name was not on the docket. I spoke with a security guard outside the courthouse and he told me to contact the clerk's office since no one that wasn't on the docket would be allowed entry due to Covid-19 restrictions. I contacted the clerk's office and they told me that my case had not been filed and that I would need to call them back after 40 days if I had not heard from them or received a letter from them in the mail. After 40 days, I reached back out to the clerk's office and my case had still not been filed and they told me that I was eligible for exoneration. I paid the exoneration fee and I was told all charges were dropped and I received an official seal with my exoneration. On November 27th, 2020, I received a letter in the mail stating "A complaint has been filed in the 'city' Superior Court by the People of the State of California charging you with the following violation(s):" followed by three misdemeanors that I was charged with on the day of my arrest along with another arraignment date in December of this year. I plan on calling the number provided on the notice to ask questions on Monday, but I'm obviously concerned with the implications. My understanding was since this case was not filed in a timely manner, it was dismissed and I was exonerated. I've tried to look up cases similar to this, but have not had any luck. Do I have any options? I can provide more specific information upon request. [UPDATE]: I found my original exoneration and it was exoneration of bail rather than exoneration of charges. I was told by the clerk's office that the charges had been dropped, but that was information likely told to me in error. Almost 9 months is a long time to hear back regarding a DUI case, but it's very probable that the delay was also related to Covid-19. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 27 Nov 2020 06:44 PM PST (I'd like to note that I'm not in a dire need of advice, but I am quite curious about the legal side of the situation, so I would appreciate your input). Also, apologies if I didn't tag this correctly. I'll try to be as clear as I can:
Now onto my questions:

| Can my landlord suddenly void my lease due to them not obtaining proper building permits? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:58 AM PST In California (San Diego County), I am currently renting/living in a secondary detached unit on a large property, for which I entered a long term lease agreement (I still have years left on the original contract). And I am not sure if it will help/hurt my presented case, but I also have a disability where certain events (such as moving) are incredibly difficult/expensive for me (hence me only willing/able to enter multi-year leases). I have a therapy dog, as well as a cat, living with me on the property. The existing landlord/owner (who currently lives in the main house) is now trying to sell the property. Our lease agreement states in the event of a sale of the property, the existing and remaining lease terms for the secondary unit will transfer to any new owner of the property, in accordance with California law. This is obviously the ideal/least imposing scenario for me. However, there is one major caveat—the unit I am renting was never legally permitted. I was aware of this fact before signing the lease, but the price was great and everything about the unit appeared to be top-notch, so I didn't mind, and it really is/has been a wonderfully solid structure/dwelling (I have had zero problems with plumbing, or electrical, or any other issues with the unit in all the years I have been living in it). Well...now that the owner is indeed trying to sell the property, they have informed me that our lease agreement is illegitimate/void since they never permitted the unit, and so I must move out now in order that they might "have an easier time selling the property." Disgustingly, they even said current Covid19 eviction restrictions do not apply to them or me in this situation, because, once again, the rental agreement is apparently totally null and void since it was for a non-permitted dwelling. Prior to this ordeal, I have had nothing but positive interactions/experiences with my landlord, but I am feeling so unbelievably helpless and bullied right now. I would still prefer not to cause any trouble...and I am trying to remain calm and amicable...but I am also ready to snap... Do I have any legal course of action I can take in order to not be so screwed over in all of this? Honestly, all I really want is just to be able to peacefully stay in the unit I've made into my home, for the remaining duration of the agreed-upon term. [link] [comments]  |
| Family Member Domestic Battery - Illinois Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:12 AM PST My nephew was punched by his father who is an attorney, clothes ripped, thrown to the grown last week. Visible marks and and an ankle sprain. After the encounter, his father went into his brothers room and asked for the brothers car keys. The brother didn't want to give them to him because the father was drunk. The father turned the room upside down, got the keys and left. My nephew that was assaulted called the police. One officer pulled the father over shortly after. Another officer took statements from nephew that was assaulted, his brother, sister, and mother. The officer also took pictures of the room and nephew's injuries Father was booked for domestic battery/bodily harm and has since been released on bond. We don't know what the conditions of release were. The officer did say that he would most likely be told he couldn't return home for 72 hours. While in custody he made numerous calls to my sister (at all hours of the night), trying to tell her that she was wrong. During one of the calls he claims that the jail staff told him "we listened to the phone calls, and your wife is lying." On another call he said "the jail staff let him listen to the recorded calls." I told my sister that he is lying and trying to convince her that she didn't witness what she said in her statement. Since his release he has called my sister and said that everyone needs to recant their statements, or he will divorce her, kick the kids out of the house (two 19 year old twins, one high school). He is telling her and the kids that he will be disbarred and he has hired an attorney that requires a $200K retainer. I told my sister to stop speaking with him, call the responding officer or the prosecutor. Any advice? I apologize for the rambling. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Nov 2020 10:09 AM PST san diego, CA okay so here's some backstory- basically my mom has been dating this guy for 6 years and he is VERY abusive in every aspect (physically, emotionally) . he's broken her nose, her back, threw her face into a curb, hit her so hard she fell into her dresser and gashed her head open, and regularly closed fist hits her. he tried charging and choking me and that's just what i know. this has been going on since i was 14 and i'm now 21. he's also just a bad person even without the abuse. he's never had a job, cheats, gave my mom HPV which lead to cancer and he told her she was lying about the cancer, and once she had to have a hysterectomy he went and had a baby with another woman and told my mom "well it's not like you can have any". and it's made it to where i hate being home and i can physically feel when he's there. i could literally go on for days about how bad of a person he is. legal stuff he was convicted of murder but they never found the gun (he did do it though he's confirmed it). he's had multiple drug charges, found with guns and stuff like that but he ALWAYS gets away with it somehow. you can imagine how incredibly infuriating his LUCK is to me. so anyways a few months ago he got pulled over and had drugs and guns so he was 100% supposed to go to jail for at least two years minimum but because of the coronavirus the the court pushed his (hearing date?) back and I keep asking my mom what's going on with it and she kept saying she didn't know and then recently (maybe a couple weeks ago) I asked her again and she said that she thinks he's going to get away with it. like I don't know how this person keeps getting so lucky but either way I'm sure the court is not allowed to do that but it's like they've forgotten about it, because they're not doing anything! I wish these judges and attorneys knew how bad of a person he is and that he doesn't deserve any luck or leeway. My question is there anything I can do or somewhere I can call anonymously to get them to finish the case or charge him?? i don't know what to do. i don't know anything about legal stuff. but i'm watching my mom slowly die and i can't deal with it.

| Served False Divorce Papers!?! Posted: 28 Nov 2020 06:11 AM PST [New Mexico] My sister is getting a divorce from her abuser but he filed first. We only notice because we looked up public records and there it was on the website. However, yesterday he had a family friend serve my sister, and the document is obviously False and they are trying to pass it as her copy. There's no official stamp, its a response to a divorce, not a petition. On the court website it says a petition was filed. What can we do? I'm going to call the courts on Monday. Isn't this illegal? I believe they think we are stupid enough to accept it and do nothing with it, so he can get full custody of the children. ** Edit They also had a lot of mistakes like address and Name.

| Posted: 28 Nov 2020 09:47 AM PST Identity Fraud Help Location: South Carolina Okay you guys I'm at a loss for direction. I live in South Carolina and my criminal of a brother went and bought a car and put literally EVERYTHING in my name. I've been off at college so I had no idea, but coming home for the holidays I intercepted some mail addressed to me saying i I we backed taxes on a car and that if they aren't paid they're going to suspend my license. This is worrisome because my brother has charges for DUI, open container, and reckless driving and if something happens and I'm at fault I could be held accountability. I was wondering what steps do I take to resolve this? I don't trust him to take the initiative of taking it out my name. Also, I'm more than positive that he's opened similar things in my name since my inconsiderate ass parents literally leaves my social security and tax information out for him take. this is really pissing me off because it's finals week and I have other things to stress about and really just want to get this resolved so I can cut ties with them once and for all because this is the last straw.

| What documents do I need hard copies of and what can I keep in digital form? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 09:10 AM PST I'm a person who likes as little paper and clutter as possible, which has lead me to scanning a large portion of photos and documents. As I continue down this road I am unsure of what I need to keep in physical form for the sake of authenticity where it would be required (like a court or something legal). I do keep multiple copies of my digital files on seperate encrypted drives in different locations, so loss of data isn't a huge concern to me, no more than losing everything in a fire (but then paper would be lost too). My question is what is essential to have in paper form, if anything? I live in Maryland and Pennsylvania. [link] [comments]  |
| My father cashed $15,000 of my checks while I was in jail and says he didn’t. What can I do? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 01:35 PM PST (Nebraska) I was recently in jail for some old charges and while I was in jail there was about $15,000 mailed to my address in several checks. My father cashed the checks (we have the same name jr/sr so that's how I think he got away with it without me knowing) he says he didn't but the bank showed me the signature of the cash slip and it's his. What can I do to get my money? [link] [comments]  |
| Friend might be caught up in Crypto Scam Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:12 AM PST I am posting this on behalf of a close friend of mine, I will refer to him as A. Location: NC, USA It is a long and convoluted story, and I am going to try abbreviate as much as possible: A mutual friend of ours, person B, came to him with the investment opportunity of investing money into a crypto coin wallet and other various business ventures. Over the course of two years A has sent over $10k in personal transfers to person B as capital investments in these projects (he has seen 0 return even when returns were scheduled). The business that B claims to represent has a defunct website and is also inactive with their Secretary of State business filing as of one year ago. Person B claims be be brokering mullti-hundred thousand dollar RE deals in addition to selling A the crypto coin wallet. The transactions are very shady and unprofessional, it seems as if there is a team of multiple people involved in this ring who are probably faking their real identities. I am helping A collect evidence of all transactions and communications between him and B and all other related parties in this matter. I understand that his money is more than likely gone at this point, I am wondering what actions should we take to prevent this from happening to other people? Thank you so much for any help you can provide! [link] [comments]  |
| Rent increase between tenants (and privacy breach!) Posted: 28 Nov 2020 12:00 PM PST This is a question about rent control in Hamilton, Ontario. As well as what to do about witnessing a breach of privacy. My landlord gave me the heads-up that he'd like to put his house up for sale in the next few months, so I've been apartment-hunting here in Hamilton for about 6 weeks now. I don't mind. It's time for a change. I looked at a lot of places and I found a condo for rent that I'm happy with. The owner showed me around and I get the sense that my application will be approved. He bought the condo as an investment last month. He's also new to the landlord role. The realtor managing the process emailed me the application last night and made a huge gaffe. Instead of sending me a blank application, he sent the completed application of the previous tenant. They applied in April of 2019 and paid *$400 less* than the current ask. I know rents in Hamilton are going up, but this is crazy. Is this amount of increase legal? And would you say anything to the owner about the privacy breach? [link] [comments]  |
| Reimbursement from travel agency (Charter flight cancelled) Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:39 AM PST Hi, my friend and I purchased a charter flight with a travel agency in september to go to Nicaragua. This was the most sure way to go since all other flights kept being cancelled last minute. The country's obligations concerning COVID-19 include the fact that our return ticket must be bought before going and the travel agency's conditions were that it had to be a ticket bought with them. So we did. It cost about $2000 per ticket, which is insane but since it was a charter flight at least I was sure it would go off and I'd get back home. Now, the airline company cancelled their flight -- well, they reported it for at least 1 month. The travel agency didn't want to reimburse us at first but finally agreed this is a cancelled flight (I mean, come on, they don't even have a date it was reported to). It may take like 3 months to get our money back. I want a proof from the travel agency that they are going to reimburse us. I don't mind the 3 months wait, I just want to make sure they won't back out of it in three months... What should I ask as a document proving they will indeed give us our money back? Thanks in advance, don't hesitate if you need any more information, I may not have been perfectly clear. Edit : I am in Managua, Nicaragua and I'm from Québec, Canada [link] [comments]  |
| Can I get restraining order against co-parent for harassment? Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:35 AM PST My Ex is constantly verbally abusing me through text messages in completely unnecessary arguments about our daughter. And I don't use the term abuse lightly. It's constant and ugly. Every day and every text has cuss words or terrible insults towards me. It's impossible to communicate with him without being torn down by him. It seems to be escalating. It's not just him being mad. He intentionally lies to me to ruin my day (his words). Is this something I just have to deal with or can I get some sort of restraining order to force him to not constantly be verbally abusive? If so what steps can I take? Background: Divorce came bc he was verbally abusive and mildly physically abusive (shaking or pushing). I left the day he chased after me trying to punch me. Nothing in divorce says there was abuse bc my lawyer told me since I never called the police it wouldn't hold up. I later found out this is false, but nothing I can do about that now. He's since had aggressive body language like he was going to hit me a few times and has threatened me a few times. So history is there. I have a million text messages to back up the verbal abuse claim. Just don't know if texts are enough for a restraining order. Custody is 60/40 with me being the custodial parent.

| Landlord forcing us to move after new tenants moved nextdoor due to my partner being a sex offender. Posted: 27 Nov 2020 04:40 PM PST Obligatory "throwaway for obvious reasons," I'm assuming we're screwed, but it's worth a shot— Anyways, my partner is on the registry in TN. We have one person that shares a driveway loop with us. Our last neighbor was great. She never caused any issues. Ever since these new people have moved in, there have been nothing but issues. We literally haven't done anything to these people. But after they moved in, our landlord started hounding us for things that were just so dumb I honestly can't remember what they all were. I think the grass was too high one time (we live out in the middle of nowhere and the neighbors house was actually higher), my car broke down and I was working on it behind our house and someone called and complained that it looked trashy since I couldn't finish it in the same day... just stupid stuff. Things that she's never had a problem with before. So tonight, I get a call with her saying "I forgot that ___ was on the sex offender registry. I received an anonymous phone call saying that a sex offender lived there and I just can't have that anymore. There are kids living next door now so I just can't have that." There are other families that live nearby and we've never had an issue. Our landlord only owns these two houses, and suddenly knows everything that we're doing since the neighbors moved in, I think it's pretty likely that they made the phone call. Nobody else nearby has anything to do with our landlord. I'm assuming that we can't really do anything since it's her house but it's just already stressing me out. It was a nightmare finding a place for the both of us to live last time. Our landlord has never had any issue with us until these new people moved in. She's always complimented us on how well kept it is, how clean it is inside, we always pay rent on time... it just sucks. [link] [comments]  |
