If you have a right of survivorship, like Harris said it will be right on the deed, you do not need a new deed. The property vests at the time of death. Your mother cannot take the house because it is your house. In fact, the house is not even part of the estate.

You should have had an opportunity to see the will before waiving your right to a claim. Did you ever sign one of those waivers?

They probably could have been a little more courteous, but under the circumstances I do not think they were at fault. You will have an opportunity to negotiate the ticket to a lesser offense on your court date.

Tell me if I am wrong on any of this: Your mother willed the house to you and your sister. You didn't want the house, so you decided to sell it. In the meantime, Jim has been living here for several years with your mother, and then for several months while the will was going through probate. In...

Why wouldn't this brother simply buy the sister's share in the house, and then only have to take out half of the greater mortgage, and instantly have half of the home's equity paid for?

A couple years ago in Florida the feds settled a 4th amendment claim brought under Bivens for $62,500. HOLLA!

Bivens 403 U.S. 388

Your stepfather was not obligated to maintain the property over the years with the possibility of the house going into probate in mind. Further, the money to repair the house was taken out of the estate, which is then split evenly. In other words, the money to repair the house never was your...

State v. Pando, 284 Ga. App. 70 is a good place to start. That was a similar "knock and talk" case that said the cops need "sufficient evidence of either a valid consent or exigent circumstances necessitating a warrantless entry into the premises." Exigent Circumstances: "A classic example of...

This stuff is a little outside of what I am most familiar with, but I do know a couple of your answers. You should be aware that this process is a royal pain. -yes you do need a board of directors -they must meet regularly and keep minutes -you need to create by laws -you must have an...

I don't know of any laws that are specifically aimed toward those who willingly advertise for illegal enterprises. There may be something buried in the U.S.C., but I'm not aware of it. And under Nye, to aid and abet "it is necessary that a defendant 'in some sort associate himself with the...

I think you should delete this post, and not talk about this publicly, even anonymously, until everything in this case is done.

Wow. That is awful. You say the criminal has "admitted" to the charges, but has he plead guilty? I ask this because the only way your visit could have any effect is if he pleads not guilty and your girlfriend takes the stand. The attorney at this point may, unfortunately, try to paint a picture...

There may be some recourse under an unjust enrichment theory, but your case is very complicated since you were volunteering, MAYBE with the expectation that you would be hired, and because you are dealing with a non-profit. I would google some attorneys in your area that specialize in employment...

You need only to look at the recent heat Craigslist has been taking for its erotic services section. Craigslist argued that the 1st amendment and net neutrality laws protected the company from advertisements of illegal services that were posted on its site by third parties. It didn't fly, and...
