That's a stupid reason not to seek a restraining order.

Document the negative interactions. Date, time, what happened. Do not engage. Report instances of assault and battery to police. Petition for a civil harassment restraining order if you have not already. This will help in whatever civil claims action you pursue in the future.

So, your brother is deceased, and you aren't being allowed access to bank statements prior to his death, and he didn't save/print out the statements before dying?

If you do not like the addendum the buyer wants to add, you don't have to agree to it. It is not illegal for the buyer to request an addendum. It is not illegal for the seller to reject the addendum. If the buyer has not paid as agreed upon in the written contract, then the buyer is in breach...

Is your other thread referring to the same property? Oh, you've been busy - transfer of ownership You have someone interested paying cash for your property. Not a mortgage. They don't want to pay cash until they're sure that they'll actually get what they are paying for.

Maybe the buyer suddenly had the epiphany that there was nothing in writing guaranteeing that they would get to use the house any time soon. It would be kind of redicilous [sic] to buy a property, pay a mortgage, and not be able to actually move in. That's your problem. The buyer is having...

The joys of voice to text and/or autocorrect. :D

White space is your friend. So is proofreading. Although, given the content, let's just go with the TL;DR version: "I was SA'd 6 months ago. My property has been vandalized. I'm an emotional mess. I filed a police report. I was able to get an order of protection against the girlfriend of...

If the terms of the lease are violated, then the LL can inform the tenant of the potential consequences. Your mother is apparently the tenant. It sounds like you're not on the lease. The time to get added to the lease as an authorized occupant is before you move in. Your mother violated...

@Rico_2013 's other thread: Parole, Probation, Release - Can I waive my appearance and have my lawyer represent me in court? @Rico_2013 , please don't start any more threads on this legal topic. If you cannot afford a lawyer, the court will appoint one for you. You no longer have a "not that...

@Rico_2013 's other thread: Is it common to ask the lawyer for a discount on the fee if the case is not that complicated?

That's not what happens with an acquittal. Perhaps the initial charge(s) were dropped or reduced to a lesser charge. It sounds like probation. Or a suspended sentence. "Behave well" is defined by the court, not you. There are explicit rules, and you have to follow the rules. You not only...

For renters: Pretty sure if you won't get your security deposit back either, and it will likely affect your ability to get approved for a rental elsewhere. Pretty sure your renter's insurance will deny the claim too.

I suppose whether it is "common" depends on your definition of "common", just as "not that complicated" is a matter of perspective. That said, 1) it doesn't hurt to ask, and 2) if you can't handle the issue without a lawyer, then it's complicated enough. On the other hand, if you have...

Good. But it does sound like you're not amicable (understatement, BTDT burned the t-shirt). So, do keep detailed records about relevant facts regarding visitation. That way you can keep track of patterns and problems.
