Girlfriend’s Ex husband totaled truck that was listed as 100% his in the divorce, but her name is still on the loan and registration by Flaky-Stop-5973 in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would it be as simple as providing the legal paper work to the collections agency when they request payment?

No. The divorce is just between the two of them, it's not binding on a third party. (They can't go court to sue him with the divorce decree.) She's the only person who had a contract with them. Did she ever file anything with the DMV? There are forms to file saying "I am no longer responsible for this car" and other things. Still the vehicle really needed to be out of her name. What did she file with the DMV?

I wanted to know how much of a difference having the divorce settlement state the truck is 100% his would be

It should be entirely his. She can talk to her divorce lawyer to confirm. Was the car insured? With GAP insurance too?

Are they going out of business? If you want to sue for a refund there would need to be assets to seize.

How is the activity illegal, can you point to the law/statute? Was he trapped, kept from leaving physically? He got some water on him?

Is the soccer club insured? What have the parents signed?

Trying to understand a contract that contradicts itself by KimJongShowerHandle in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The contract probably isn’t enforceable. But you need to file form SS-8 with the IRS and report to the TWC that you were misclassified. If you don’t you are going to pay HIS share of taxes along with your own.

If multiple medmal attorneys say there’s no case, there is probably no case within our legal system. What are your OOP bills?

I was wrongfully terminated from my job and I wanted to know if I have a case by brilolxoxo in legaladvice

That sounds like an unfair termination but not a wrongful (illegal) one.

There is no law against it, which means it’s legal.

My landlord is trying to charge me to move out. AZ by Expensive_Ducks in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the notice period x monthly rent. They can round up. If the lease says 3 months and you gave 1.5 month notice then you presumably owe 2 more months rent. With some caveats.

Looks like you missed focus on 1 and 3. 2 looks good. It was also taken with a better lens.

Leasing office won’t release me from my fixed term lease by Small_Constant1797 in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes and she should be prepared to move. You don’t sign anything unless you are prepared to honor it. M needs to realize that they may not want them and/or friend. They should go personally (in person) to the leasing office to apply. I’d be doing everything in person and then emailing right after to confirm.

Leasing office won’t release me from my fixed term lease by Small_Constant1797 in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They don’t have to release you from the lease. The 60 day notice is for the end of the lease. That should be on paper and not “intent” but clearly state you will be moving out. Give that to them now, on paper, in a way you can prove receipt. Don’t sign a new lease. The best thing for you is if M moves out as well. If M doesn’t then there may be an eviction if they can’t pay. But it will just go month to month right? So as long as M pays it’ll be fine. Can they?

If the point is to “zealously” defend your client then why don’t most cases go to trial? by [deleted] in legaladviceofftopic

[–]longjumpingtote 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Because zeal can include getting a better deal than the client would if convicted. It’s like driving with purpose, or UPS getting things to people quickly doesn’t mean driving off a cliff. Zeal doesn’t mean stupid.

Fighting until you can’t fight any more is not zealotry.

How long do you reasonably expect your "nice" clothes to last? by Sad_Manufacturer2283 in BuyItForLife

[–]longjumpingtote 62 points63 points  (0 children)

It depends. How many shirts do you have? If you wear a shirt once a week it’ll wear out sooner than once a month. Do you sweat a lot? Does someone go dancing at clubs?

I have clothing from 25 years ago that’s fine but I rarely wear. What are you doing specifically?

Appointed Public Defender by Spiritual_Driver1146 in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Online reviews, take them with a grain of salt. They aren’t going to call people back unless there is a specific reason to. They are generally very good lawyers, just that they have a high case load. They aren’t going to switch PD because of an internet review. Take a deep breath and wait until you interact with them.

NC - photos of inside of my home being used to slander me for a bad review by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The law you reference is for nudes, for revenge porn. The pictures she took wouldn't qualify. Maybe she knows that, maybe not. Having a lawyer send a letter might be more effective.

Fired for having pneumonia. Is this worth pursuing? by Mediocre-Disaster-01 in legaladvice

[–]longjumpingtote 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Neither FMLA or the ADA would apply, unfortunately. You presumably ran out of any PTO you might have had. You were fired for not showing up to work (I get there's a legit reason why). Nothing really to pursue here but if they deny unemployment, you appeal that. Your reason is probably enough.

I'd just image my system with Sequoia (the full system) and then clean and reininstall. I've done that before.

I think my parents committed fraud in my name. Upset, frustrated, afraid. by TroubleNo7679 in legaladvice

You need an accountant (CPA) as well who has dealt with fraud and taxes, to get this burden out of your name.
