QUESTIONS

  • Can employer push you to quit so that you cant claim unemployment?
  • My ex is supposed to pay court ordered child support and has not done so for a little over 19 months. Am I supposed to file paperwork to have it on the record, or does the state automatically know that he owes me back child support? I don't even know if he is working currently.
  • The ac went out in our house rental at 1:30am, so I had to get myself and two small children to a hotel. We ended up staying for two nights before the AC was repaired. The landlords said they won't/don't reimburse for the hotel. I'm confused because it says in the Tenant/Landlord act that money can be withheld from rent if substitute house has to be found if the rental is uninhabitable. I have receipts for the hotel and I took the amount off the rent & now the landlords are looking to either late fee or evict me. Can they do that?! I really scared as I have two small kids & no where to go.
  • When arrested for hindering or interfering ,the officer failed to read me my Miranda rights.Are these grounds for a dismissal?
  • Can my landlord impose a fee because I own a washing machine? This fee was not indicated on my original rental contract I signed 9 years ago. This fee was implemented AFTER they built a laundry room. Their excuse for charging this fee is that the water bill is higher, which wasn't an issue before they built the laundry room.
  • I want to Petition the court for Grandparent's visitation. The only closely related forms I can find all relate to cases that are already being and have been litigated to some degree or another. The kids' parents were never married and there has been no legal steps taken by either party for formal custody, support, etc. Do I need to just write my own petition and start from square one? As far as I can tell the Superior Court is the proper venue...I would hate to petition the wrong court! Thank you for your help.
  • I moved into an apartment in April and had specifically asked the manager if they had bed bugs and he said no..I asked about roaches he said a few here and there well both myself and neighbor have them she is more infested than I am but I'm a cardiac patient on blood thinners with other health issues is it the landlord responsible to provide the extermination services
  • Is it legal for my landlord to put on the lease that I am responsible for the repair or replacement of the house's appliances? Stove, fridge, washer/dryer. They are not new.
  • I rent with three other people one is planning on moving out by law is she required to give me a certain amount of notice before she moves?We agreed on end of month but she decided to move out tonight the end of the 18th with only giving me 4 hours notice.
