QUESTIONS

  • I was arrested for possession of a controlled substance and released on OR, missed a court date and brought in in a warrant. I was released on supervised release. I left the state and never went back. It has been 20 years. I want to get it cleared up because it comes up when my fingerprints are run for employment and concealed carry permit. Is this past the statute of limitations? Is the law different because I left the state?
  • I want to move out of my mobile home. The does not want to buy it off me but I've had people who wanted to previously purchase it off of me. They do not want to take applications from the people who want to buy. Can they legally not accept applications from people who want to purchase and keep me paying lease space?
  • Summary: My landlord sent me a notice to vacate from the residence using a text message. Is a text message a legally binding notice to vacate? Full: I have been a tenant for 4 years at the residence. My lease expired July 13, 2018. We did not renew the lease this year, so I've been paying month-to-month. I got a new out of state job and scheduled the movers for July 13. She suddenly sent me a text message on May 30 to vacate by July 1. She did not give me notice that she was looking for a new tenant. I have never been late or delinquent on rent payment. What are my legal options?
  • Is there a 3 day release from jail if not charged rule? But if the jail lists charges on the inmate, doesn't that mean that they have been charged? And if the preliminary hearing is scheduled, doesn't that mean that they have been charged, but not necessarily indicted? On major methamphetamine trafficking charges, isn't it unlikely someone would get out on the above-mentioned 3 day "rule"? Without a bond? Just turned loose?
  • Disabled people living in a rented mobile home but now landlord wants us to paint the porch and power wash the mobile home
  • How does my granddaughter get an annulment? She has no income.
  • We have bees outside our office that keep getting in. We have contacted the landlord to remove and they will not respond. We have ask in person, by phone and in writing.
  • i pay rent for the property my home is on but the land lord makes me pay property taxes to her every year is this legal
  • I have been divorced for over three years. I have primary physical custody of my children but share legal custody with my ex. We live in two different cities. My son is autistic. Can we legally register my son to attend school in the Tempe district even though he is only at his father's home in Tempe 30% of the time? Or do we need to revise the physical custody agreement in order to legally enroll him?
  • We mailed in our divorce documents to the court, and when returned signed by the judge it doesn't have an Atlas number, or child support commence date. My ex wife claims she has it and it isn't given to the father paying child support. Did the child support not actually become obligatory? I have been paying directly by check because I have never recieved any further correspondence or direction from the court. Thank you!
