    Why did you resurrect a nearly 5-month old thread without reading it?

    Collection agency seems to be telling me they sent ppwk, but they have not

    Best not to use acronyms (?) that aren't well-known. You understand that this doesn't tell us anything, right? I'm not sure what the antecedent of "this" is, but nothing you described could reasonably be called "predatory." Protect yourself against whom/what? Why do you (apparently) think...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Target, banned

    Leave. Unless someone affiliated with the store told you something about a ban, there is no reason to think you are banned. You mean the ban that you have given us no reason to believe exists? Despite your use of a question mark this sentence is not a question. If you intended it to be a...

    Settlement vs Board Minutes?

    Depends on the terms of the settlement agreement. Specifically, it depends on whether the settlement agreement imposes any relevant obligations on the defendant(s). Beyond that, you seem to be seeking a generalized discussion about a body of California law with which most California lawyers...

    Settlement vs Board Minutes?

    That language imposes no obligation on the defendant. If you have questions about your situation, I suggest you consult with the attorney who represented you in the case.

    Settlement vs Board Minutes?

    I've been litigating cases as a lawyer for more than a quarter century and, as a paralegal, for another 10 years, and I've never seen or heard of such a provision in a settlement agreement. The antecedent to the pronoun "their" is unclear. However, I can tell you that the Brown Act does not...

    Signed a bill of sale that the car would be fixed and the next day all lights came back on the dash

    That's not just small claims court. If you win and the defendant doesn't appeal or pay voluntarily, you have to enforce your judgment. Here are the basics: How to collect a judgment | California Courts | Self Help Guide. As for the merits, here's what I'm seeing: "[unchecked box] Contingent...

    Signed a bill of sale that the car would be fixed and the next day all lights came back on the dash

    Your recourse is small claims court. Your likelihood of success depends on the exact language of the bill of sale.

    Legal definition of a building

    "Covered bench area" is WAY too vague to be meaningful. Please describe it. Also, "considered" by whom and for what purpose? Why are you asking? Also, since you're posting in an area relating to criminal law, please consider that this is a public forum and that, if you've been charged with a...

    Is This Really a Problem?

    It matters a lot in what state these people live. In at least some states (e.g., California) a spouse is married person is not allowed to designate anyone other than his/her spouse as beneficiary on a life insurance policy unless the other spouse consents in writing. If a policy exists in...

    Could this be considered retaliation?

    Paragraphs would have been nice. Before I try to read your gigantic block of text, I'm going to point out that "retaliation" isn't some magic word. No one who posts here regularly is from Alabama, but "retaliation" is only a legally meaningful concept in a couple of contexts. Rent...

    Constitutional Law & Civil Rights plaintiff attorney needed

    Posting on an internet message board is not a good way to find a lawyer. No decent lawyer would troll for clients that way. What? Violated by whom? How? The cited constitutional provision does not confer any rights on any individual. It states as follows: "No State shall enter into any...

    Does lease agreement supersede CCP 1161(2)?

    When was the lease signed? On what date and for what month did you receive the most recent rent payment. There is no way for anyone here to intelligently interpret something we haven't read. Query: what did you think this provision meant when you inserted it into your lease? What...

    Are Signed Offer Letters Binding?

    Liable for what? If you lie on your resume, you're subject to being fired, and you wouldn't be eligible for unemployment insurance. If an employer fails to disclose an intent to change the conditions of employment, it's subject to the employee quitting, and the employee might be eligible for...
