QUESTIONS

  • Can I be charged rent if I do not reside in the house anymore?
  • I am currently renting a mobile home in a 55+ community. Our trailer is old, but the tenant does not want to do any repairs on it. Our AC is only getting down to 86 degrees, and has been 92 degrees inside for the past week. Is this legal? I also have pets.
  • I am trying to deliver a notification that I intend to garnish my evicted tenant's wages or bank account. He would not tell me his address, closed his bank account, does not have a car, and lost his job. How do I deliver the notification?
  • my son was 18 and his girf 17yoa when she got pregnant..it was consentual and both parents talked about the situation. my son has been supporting the baby but has no legal custody. exgirf and father have been harassing my son about giving exgirf money as child support and my son told him no and exgirfs father told son that he is pressing charges on him because daugh was 17 and he was 18 when she got pregnant. he has proof of support of child with receipts. what can he do?
  • Can my landlord claim any damages and keep my security deposit if the house is in foreclosure?
  • A lady with 7 cats and 2 rabbits has lived in my home for the past 3 years. Nothing signed but has been month to month. I gave her written notice 12/1/15 that must leave no later than 1/31/16. She has not done a thing to move out. What can I do if she leaves but does not take her animals?
  • We owe a nursing care facility 10,000 dollars. I have been sending them 20.00a month. I received a letter from them with a check for the payments I made. They are refusing my payments because they are saying the payments are too low. This is all I can afford to send. Are they legally allowed to refuse these payments? Thank You
  • I thought that expungement meant the clearing or erasing of one's record, but it doesn't mean that in AZ. What does it mean? What is the point of it?
  • My landlord sent me a 5 day pay or quit notice to my place of employment, along with a copy to my work email,I work at a large company of about 2k, mail is not given to us directly. It is opened by a mail room clerk and then distributed (if they feel it is work related) to the appropriate dept managers. My work email automatically sends acknowledgements when you open an email. So I know my landlord received this acknowledgement. My question, is can my landlord send me this 5 day notice to my place of work? Is the signature from the mail clerk acceptable in court?
  • I was arrested in August for marijuana possession. I was with a group and we were detained while the officer questioned us. We were not read our rights and I told the officer the joint was mine to eliminate my friend from getting into trouble. I was taken to the police station and was held for a few hours but they never read me my rights. I was then realeased to go home. I have since moved back to California and am trying to find out what is going to happen. There is no case filed and the court told me not to worry about it but the police said they have a year to file. What can I do?
