QUESTIONS

  • My adult probation officer informed me that she was "required by law" to receive a notarized letter from my employer - I asked if there was a standard format letter I could review and she said no. I have no issue verifying employment through typical means but I feel a letter that is arbitrary is a bit unfair. I just want someone to show me the "required by law" part???
  • My trial was scheduled more than 10 months after the Plaintiff filed a lawsut. It has been over 2 months since my trial and there has been no ruling. Can I file a post trial motion to dismiss based on the 10 month rule in Az? This is a civil debt matter and I filed everything in a timely fashion. At trial the judge halted the trial half way thru as he said he was unfamiliar with the new amended AZ laws. It has been over 365 days since they file a complaint and over 2 months since we both gave him our memorandum of case law after trial. Question is should I wait for a decision or file a motion?

  • I have been living in my unit since July 2014. Now I did not have roaches before I moved in but once I moved in, I started seeing them here and there. I did notify my leasing office management about the issue and have had my unit sprayed 4 times. It seems that everytime I call them about this issue they just say oh ok will put you on the list and than hang up. Now I have 3 small children including a infant and the roaches are increasing. What can I do about this issue and if its not resolved, can I get out of my lease?
  • My mother lives in Phoenix and has Title 14 Guardianship of our 6 year old nephew. She wants to transfer it to us in Texas. The child's mother agrees with the plan and will give consent. I believe ARS 8-874 applies here. Where do we find the paperwork to motion for appointment of a successor and affidavit (assuming this is the correct path to take).

He is enrolled in school and school activities and after school activities and is doing very well.
