Well, it would depend on any agreement you had before, who is going to pay for the inspection. What did you agree on who would pay for it in case a sale would have been made? Normally oral contracts are binding. You can assert a defense, however, because it seems you have not signed a...

if it is her only conviction she will be under the exception. But she needs to watch out.

If you have all the copies and documentation like you describe it you look good.

well, with petty offense he meant that it is not punishable by more than a year. Under California penal law it actually is like you said, an offense punishable by up to 6 months on the first conviction, so you should be in the clear.

First of all, you cannot just become an American citizen. You always first have to become a legal permanent resident, a so called "green card holder." Then you have to live in the United States for at least 5 years (with one exception, if you married a citizen it is 3 years) and then you can...

There are several legal issues here. The advice given above is very good, I would contact the state insurance commission and the contact person in your employer's HR department (some times called health care advocate etc.). Then I would closely review the paperwork you have from the hospital...

Actually, I think you never posted where the crime was committed, which state. It depends on that provision in the penal code. If the maximum penalty for it is below a year, the exception in the immigration law should apply.

What they can do if you violate the CC&Rs is explained in them. Usually they can assess a fine PER DAY of violation, for example $ 25 per day. And many of them love to do that and will pursue it to the utmost, there have been many cases where the HOA actually obtained liens on the houses for the...

Probably. This is what you should get a lawyer for.

This is always hard to say. There is a tort called "Interference with contractual relations" or "Interference with future business relations" and also a tort called "false light" which basically means this: If someone intentionally interferes with the relations between a business and its...

Some details would be necessary to evaluate this. First of all, one would have to know exactly what happened. Why did the axle break? An axle doesn't break every day. This is a major defect. I don't know how the laws of Kansas specifically deal with this problem, but here are some general...

It looks pretty good for you. If this was your first and only conviction and it was only about the bottle of beer, it was what Pennsylvania calls a "summary offense" and therefore you would not have any problems on the immigration front. http://members.aol.com/StatutesP3/18PA3929.html

Propulsion is a misdemeanor of the first degree that carries a maximum sentence of 5 years in prison. I think it is time for you to get a lawyer.

No, your first lineup was correct: You either need to be married to someone living legally in the states, or have an employment visa which you normally only get through an employer or be a student. Relatives other than spouses who live in the US as foreigners cannot sponsor a visa.

May be, may be not. This needs to be evaluated by a professional, one would have to know all the details. You should get as many details as you can and consult a medical malpractice lawyer.

In emergencies you can file for temporary custody where the children are. Since the mother was arrested for violence this would be considered an emergency. The mother definitely should consult an attorney on the further proceedings.

There is nothing you can do concerning the INS. You have to resubmit the application. You might have a malpractice case here against that attorney. How you want to proceed here is your decision, and you would have to think about all the consequences. It depends on the damage you suffered...

Yikes, I seem to be blessed with two good neighbors :) I agree with tamhall, one should try to avoid fanning the fire. The neighbor was within his rights to cut the tree which was hanging over onto his property. Actually it would be the tree owner's responsibility to make sure that won't be...

lwpat is surely right. While in general parents are not responsible for the torts the children commit, there very often is a way to argue a case so that the parents will be liable anyway, mostly by arguing that they were negligent in supervising their children, as could probably be argued here...

Don't we all love these kind of neighbors? Your rights depend very much on your zoning and building code laws. The notice you received should explain some of them, if not, call the city department that sent you the note and ask. Otherwise it is very tricky to make a case. Normally an...
