**** I am going to defer to Jacksgal (here's a first!) because I really am not familiar with Civil demands. However, I am going to say that 3x 75 is still 225 and no attorney from Florida is going to come to SC to sue for that. I'm off to research, maybe I'll start with Jack's site.

No. You can't. The school has a right to set their own rules.

This is at best a civil issue. His threats as I understand them are not about violence but about legal action. Further he is based in the UK so you would be hard pressed to be truly concerned about stalking. Anything that you put on the internet is PUBLIC INFORMATION and unless it is behind...

He is broke but he hired a lawyer? Yea right.

If you have only been there two months I would put the surgery off if your DOCTOR thinks it is safe. Someone around here will let you know about the FMLA and if it covers this.

I'm always amazed at those who expect "non-judgmental" legal opinions. The whole body of law is about JUDGMENT. You can not separate the two. What people do not understand is that the attitudes that we are reacting to are the reason there is a problem. Many times that reason is the core of...

While I"m glad you aren't the culprit you fundamentally misunderstand one major concept: It simply doesn't matter if she agreed to screw the entire La Lakers team at Mid-court during half time. She is a child and anyone who has sex with her is dead in the water. There is no "Moral" out...

First, the storage fees can not exceed the value of the vehicle. Secondly, he has a duty to mitigate the damages. He is aware that the property is in impound it is his property, he denied the tow, he is responsible for the impound fees. Third: Army is right, you are going to owe for...

There, in Army's answer is the KEY. Your total answer is only: I live in XX County and the insurance company has improperly sued me in YY County. Defendant Motions to Dismiss the Plaintiff's Complaint for improper venue. Ignore the rest. :-)

First rule of lawyering: There are facts and there are opinions about those facts. Lying about the facts will get you in trouble, having your own opinion about those facts won't. Tickets are evidence of a criminal charge. They are not proof of civil liability. If you can not beat the...

I like the idea of telling him that you will just take the apartment on July first. He will certainly balk at that and then you can say, fine, I'll take it June 10th if you stop trying to screw me! You are from NYC and he is from Texas, I'm a southerner who speaks Northern pretty well. Never...

Never ever close down a company when a lawsuit is threatened. Assuming you absorbed any company property and personal property when you did so, and I mean paper clips, then you have effectively commingled company and personal assets. I would withdraw that paperwork and keep that LLC going...

I didn't do a lot of research on that, I was researching something else and was surprised that it seemed to fit so I threw it out there. Interesting.

People are always asking if it is "legal" to do this or that in contracts. Unless something is a crime or against public policy it is legal. In this case you do not yet have an agreement unless you have signed the lease. You have two choices: 1. Acquiesce to the silliness of his demand or 2...

She is an ex-paramour, I don't care how much you trust her word, get it in writing that she will take over the payments on the condo so that she is liable to you. You can either 1. Decide how much equity you deserve from the condo and affix a lien to it for that amount plus say 4% interest to...

The proximate cause of the storage fees is your friend's decision to decline the tow. You did what you were suppose to do by having the car safely towed to his place of business. His refusal is his own stupidity. You are likely responsible for the cost of the tow from the site of the accident...

The survey pin locations are memorialized in your recorded deed at the Court house. They are nice to have for the surveyor but completely unnecessary for the survey. Still I would do as Army said and complain to their main office. My guess is that they will replace them. The road repair...

I'm going to answer the same questions Army did but with a slightly different take. You answer to the court who's address is printed on the Summons. The Summons says something like you must file an answer with this Court within 30 days or face a Default Judgment. At the top of that summons...

Moose, I think the US Supreme Court may not agree with you. I was reading this in connection with a case I was working on and I'm pretty shocked. Look at this: Steagald v.United States, 451 U.S. 204, 101 S.Ct. 1642, 68 L.Ed.2d 38 (1981) (officers possessing an arrest warrant for one...

It seems I've heard of that case. It was a big one in CA.
