Long story...complicated a bit! Please be kind, this is a very emotionally disturbing situation, only serious answers please.
I'll try to sum it up...
Married in arkansas, resided together in Missouri.
Married almost 4 years, I was a single mother of 3 going back to college when we met, and i had my own home.
we married, I sold my home, we bought a $300,000+ home together.
I had to quit going to college and work full-time because his promise to pay my tuition after we married was not fulfilled.
I quit working all together 6 months later at his request because he works away from home and wanted me home when he was not working.
June 2007, he moved out and got an apartment in arkansas, putting much of the blame on his children, stating they do not care for me.
Has spent much time here in our home since then, with many unkept promises of moving back.
He took a job in Asia 1 year ago and while claims to be working 3 months on and 3 WEEKS off, I just found out that he has not been working all that time and in fact has an asian girlfriend with which he is residing, believed to be in Thailand. yet he will not admit this.
He has since let the mortgage get behind, his vehicle was even repossessed this week.
Although I have had suspicions of all of this, I confronted him manytimes and it was always denied.
I lost my part-time job this week because of emotional upset and inability to work. and have discussed many times about geting a full-time job and each time he simply refuses and says there's no need.
the emotional upset is because i had not spoken tohim in 7 days, got suspicious, found internet profiles(facebook, myspace) with many asian female friends, learned he's learning the language, etc. I called the vessel he was supposed to beon and he had left 1 week earlier. learned he had been in bangkok, had lasik eye surgery, then was supposed to fly home on feb. 11th, move home permanently, catch up the mortgage, then on the 11th i got an email from him stating he wasn't coming home. 5 days went by with no word from him, he claimed he had been in jail for hitting the doctor while at his lasik check-up. Now today, 5 more days later, he confesses its over!
I have no money, a home that will eventually go into foreclosure, an unfinished degree with student loans to pay, 3 children to support, no means to go to the doctor for some type of help with my upset and nervous situation.
His job is a contract position, no taxes withheld, all checks deposited into an Asian bank account, possibley in Singapore. His income averages $150,000 per year. He claims he doesnt have a passport anymore either.
I have suspected, but he will not admit to anything and I'm afraid he may be seeking citizenship in an Asian country and am unsure as to whether or not this will make me responsible for all of our shared debt.
What are my chances of getting spousal support, at least temporarily?
Should I go ahead and file for divorce now? or only tryto seek spousal support and let him show that he is the guilty and abandoning party by waiting for him to file?
***PLEASE***before any snide and hurtful remarks are made, please be aware that the only thing I am guilty for is loving someone who happens to be quite manipulative, hurtful, selfish, quite convincing, and someone whom I have always been able to trust and who I thought was my best friend as well. I am not a stupid person, I am very trusting and have always been an honest person. I am however, obviously a terrible judge of character. This situation has completely turned my world upside down, so please only serious answers from those who have serious educated answers.
I do plan to get an attorney, but have to have finances first and am trying to get a sense of what I may be up against.
.MO %26amp; AR divorce laws, legal advice about spousal support, adultery, home...any lawyers?
WAY, way, way too long.
Shorten this question and you may get more answers to help you.

I need some semi-legal advice on possible charges for a kid breaking into their own house. Details inside.?
Okay, my boyfriend may be having a problem and I need to know what can happen ASAP. He's over 18 but not 21, and last night he got home a bit late. He still lives at home, and his mom's been trying to shove him out the door, figuratively, by making his daily life at home a living hell, and last night he had to work late and ended up walking home. He gets home, and the door is locked (his mom refused to give him a key). So he knocks on the door, can't figure out if anyone's actually home or not, goes to her room and knocks on the window, hoping she'll wake up, because he doesn't have a cell phone and lives virtually in the middle of nowhere. Still no answer, so he tries to figure out if he can get inside through the side door.
Apparently, his mom was awake all along, and she yells through the door for him to go away or she's calling the cops. Using his name, so she knew damn well it was him.
If she calls the cops, because ten minutes ago she threatened to, because he somehow damaged the door (I don't think it was very badly or he would have been able to get inside), what's going to happen?
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND:
He DOES live there, his mom DID know he was going to be home late, and she DID know it was him outside.I need some semi-legal advice on possible charges for a kid breaking into their own house. Details inside.?
Wtf kind of mum is that? I woulda kicked that door in then kicked the biches face in, kicked her out and see how she likes it.

I need real estate legal advice?
My husband's aunt approached us in April, asking us to purchase a house for her. It's the house she wants to retire in, but she currently owns 3 other houses and can't afford a 4th mortgage payment. She offered to put up $75k for a down payment; all we had to do was make the mortgage payment and xfer title to her in 10 years. We said ok.
We ended up renting the house from the sellers for June and July because escrow took much longer than expected. Escrow closed in August, so we only paid 1/2 months rent. The 1st mortgage payment wasnt due until October, so we had 45 days with no rent due.
3 weeks after escrow closed, his aunt calls and demands that we pay her all of the rent that we didn't have to pay for August and September. She said that if we don't pay her the rent, we need to leave and she will find someone else to buy the house for her.
Can she legally make us leave? The title is solely in our names. And we *NEVER* agreed to pay her any rent! What should we do?I need real estate legal advice?
If you are in sole title to the property she has no rights at all, especially if she gave you a gift letter for the $75,000 which specifies that the funds were a gift that did not require repayment (most standard lender gift letters specify this).
Technically, what she did was ask you to perpetrate loan fraud by taking out a 30 year loan when you would be transferring title to her 10 years into that note term. At the time of transfer, the ';Due on Sale'; clause would have kicked in and to be in compliance with the terms of the deed of trust, she would have had to refinance it anyway.
She doesn't have an executed rental agreement so you don't owe her rent. Congratulations, you just got a home!
She is not only dishonest, she is greedy and deserves whatever loss she takes. That said, to preserve family relationships, if possible, I would give her a 2nd lien position predicated upon your ability to negotiate acceptable repayment terms for the amount she advanced you on the sale.I need real estate legal advice?
what a nice aunt, glad mine isn't that nice. If you are the only ones on title you should sell it and pocket her 75k. That will teach her to bust your balls over rent.
Never ever do real estate business like this with family, it aways ends in disaster.
Once the deed to a property has been transferred, it is legally the property of the new person it title. There is nothing that can legally be done to reverse the transfer of ownership (as long as the deed was properly prepared, notarized, witnessed, and recorded).
If there was no rental agreement during the escrow period, then she can not come back to you NOW and demand any monies.
Looks like you are the proud owner of a home and your hubby's aunt is SOL.
And I agree, doing business with the family is like cutting off a finger.....Ouch!
You are legally entitled to the house but I think you need to rethink the situation you got into with her because it sounds like a nightmare. Good luck.

I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
Ok heres the deal my boyfriend brother had a car that he didnt want anymore so, he asked if we would take over the payments. The car is still in his brothers name and we had it over a year now. Recently his brother got a divorce with his wife. When this happen she had a drango so he asked us to take over the payments. We probably had the drango for five months now, this is in his brothers name too. So heres my question he just lost his truck cause he couldnt afford the payment now he wants one of the vechles back do we legally have too. I really need some legal information on this.I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
You are in a bit of a pickle.
Both vehicles are in the brother's name, so technically he holds the lease, and by extension all rights to the vehicles.
When you took over the payments. the right thing to do was to have the lease changed over to you too.
Legally you have no rights in this instance, and the favor you did the brother has no legal bearing on your position. He can take back either or both vehicles by law.
The only bargaining chip you have is that you can refuse to continue the arrangement on both vehicules should the brother decide he wants one back.Given that he probably wouldn't be able to keep up the payments on both, he might decide to let things be. If that is the case, insist on having the leases transferred to your name so that this situation can't repeat itself.I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
The vehicles are in his name, but I would think that if you can show proof of payment on them you would have rights as well. If her couldn't afford the payments on his truck and there is still money owed on the two you have, how does he think he can afford the payments on either of them? Your best bet is to contact a lawyer for your advice, but I think you have a good case IF you can show that you have been making the payments on both vehicles. Good luck.
Any deals made, should be but in black and white,
on paper, and the titles should have been changed
to your name.
If he lost one truck, because he could not make the
payments. He will lose the one, you give back to him too.
If the titles are legally in his name.
If you intend to go to court, keep all paperwork of the
payments you have made.
The same will happen again, if you don't get the title
put in your name .
Proof of payment will do you nothing at all, the problem is that it is still in his name and by law it belongs to him..........
Whose name is on the title? Yours? I didn't think so. Your only hope will be to let a judge decide this. How could you ever get yourself in such a mess?
Damn.

PLEASE i desperately need legal advice ?
This is my story in an email to michael moore , ive used it here just to save time in writing it all over again please help me i dont know what to do or who to talk to
%26lt;-------------------------------
Mr. Moore,
Thank you so much for all of the work you’ve done opening people’s eyes to the serious issues we face in this country and in the world. For turning the media back on itself as a valuable tool to reach across the country. I am going to try and keep this as short as possible for some chance that you might actually be able to read it, and if you want details I could write a novel full of them. My name is Anthony Percivalle I am 25 years old and after getting my degree in computer science in upstate new York I decided to come down here to south Florida to pursue another degree in 3d animation. I am attending a school called digital media arts college (www.dmac.edu, although the site is not informative to say the least) I have been here almost 4 years now for a degree that should have taken 2 and a half. They claim like a lot of other private school to have “industry professionals” and “24 hour lab access” All of my teachers are students at DMAC that were hired straight out of our own program to teach ( and get paid a lot less than an industry professional , for some reason in a school with a handful of administrators $30,000 a year from over 300 students just isn’t enough to hire decent teachers) they make up most of the teaching staff.
When I got to the school DMAC was new and didn’t even have desks yet. Over the past almost 4 years I have seen the entire faculty change over and over. The financial backer for the school left, all of the department heads have changed a few times. The offices aren’t ever even in the same place they were the semester before. Let me say that this is a one building school 3 floors. And im not even aloud on the 3rd to use the “motion capture studio open to all students” When I started inquiring about the things going on here I was shut out. I had a meeting with the president ( a graphic designer who failed in the industry and started the school with the man who started the golf channel) She completely controlled the whole conversation and told me to leave when I asked to see some work that qualifies my teachers as industry professionals or even any of her own work. For the past 3 years I have been emailing and setting up meetings to no avail. Most of the time the people who arrange the meetings don’t even show up or show up really late, tell me how they disagree and then smil in my face and tell me to come see them some time. Funny thing is that all of the upper level staff( 1 guy named adres) has a company that he runs that is more important than his job. He is involved with several other teachers producing a video game at the school for their own financial benefit. He’s told me on numerous occasions when we’re are around people to come and see him anytime yet every time I’ve been to his office a million times and when he is there he’s on YouTube or some other recreational website and tells me he is busy?? For 30,000+ a year I think he should at least be in his office by 10 am. I now have over $100,000 in loans through salliemae from going to this school and I am 2 semesters from graduating, if they let me. I can no longer afford to live down here without working full time and although I have a decent job as a field tech fixing driving simulators but it’s just not cutting it. Unlike a lot of my peers I don’t have anyone to help me. I am at my whit’s end with the school. They won’t answer my phone calls or emails and they walk away from me when im on campus its completely insane and frustrating. I have no medical insurance and I dislocated my thumb and tore a ligament but I cant go get surgery to fix it and using my hand for the past 5 months has been excruciating. I want to leave this place and just start working full time to make money to survive, but ive invested so much I really don’t know what to do or who to talk to because I feel like im shouting in the dark here
They changed the entire curriculum while I was there and even told me that I must not have gotten taught what I was supposed to. I am tired of all-nighters and countless hours in my chair teaching myself what I could have learned for free. for nothing, no encouragement , no reviews, I can’t even get my grades from my teachers. They show up 20 min late to class, but on the day of finals I had some car trouble and was 2 minutes late and I fail my class for the semester??? I am usually not one to complain Mr. Moore and I always put forth my best, hard work, honesty and determination is what’s lacking in a lot of people these days and it’s sickening, everyone wants to be a millionaire for doing absolutely nothing . I could have went to medical school and made 3 times as much as an animator for this amount of money.
I have bunches of emails and conversations to back all this up. The presPLEASE i desperately need legal advice ?

yes - why don't you go for some psychological help so you can quit exposing yourself and quit worrying about what will happen when you finally do end up in jail (and you will, no doubt)?

Can someone give me legal advice asap?
I am now dealing with CAS/CPS. Okay, they were called and found no abuse or neglect said there were no concerns. Then when they accessed my sons medical records seen that two months ago I mentioned my spouse used cocaine. Well he has no quit but they want a hair follicle test done now. He will not pass cuz it's not been three months yet. My concern though is with his son whom lives with us. CAS said they are now going to involve his mother but would not go into detail on the phone. Will they take him away from us? My spouse has joint custody of my stepson with my mother in law. CAS took him away from the mother years ago due to neglect. My mother in law lives next door. Would it be best to send him next door to stay with her until all of this is resolved? We do not want to lose him or any of our children. My spouse never did the drugs around them and would come home after the kids were in bed so they never seen it. They would be home with me while he was gone away. Please I need helpCan someone give me legal advice asap?
i do not wish to comment much on this in public; but since your mother-in law has joint legal custody, you should MOVE your stepson into her care and he should stay there. Do as they say, and DO NOT leave your children alone with their father. I do not know why , for the life of me, you would tell anyone about the cocaine use, but the damage is done. Illegal drug use by a parent is reason to remove your children. You need to get a legal aid attorney ASAP. They have probably have petitioned an ex parte Child In Need of Assistance in order to remove your children. In most jursidictions you will then be notified when your fisrt court date will be. Email me if you want to know what will happen next. It would have been helpful to know what state you are in.Can someone give me legal advice asap?
If you were to present the option of letting your son go to the Mother in law's house while they conduct their investigation and are very cooperative, then come court time that will reflect well on your behalf. They can not just take him away without court proceedings, so that is the best place to present your case as the CPS will when power struggles. Hope this helps.
You're asking for legal advice on Yahoo! Answers. You're much better off asking for legal advice from a lawyer. No matter how well-intentioned and experienced many responders may be, you are only getting opinion. Please speak with a lawyer.
Your husband should deny that he used cocaine, tell them the Dr got it incorrect, maybe he said he had used once, some time in the past.
You could have been lying to the Dr when you told him your husband used cocaine.
He may pass the test, if he is afraid he can try that soap they sell at the head shops, I attended a class on drug use and the lab tech that talked about hair tests said that the soap works, but it is very harsh on the hair. Bleaching the hair can also remove the residue of cocaine from it. To not be too noticeable he could try home dye in his own hair color. I know a woman who tried, and it worked for pot. She left the dye on for about 2 hours, but I don't know if that is necessary.
If they believe there is drug use in the home they might take the kids, or at least let you place them with a relative, but if you sent them away then you might look suspicious.
If you look at what has happened in Texas with those 400 children you will see that the state is capable of taking children with no evidence of any wrongful behavior. Once they get into your life be afraid, be very afraid.
Why would your husband use cocaine at night, doesn't it keep you awake??
The way that hair is tested is the same as a urine test. They cut some hair from the base of the neck, usually because it won't show as much. then they measure about an inch or less near the root, pulverize it, and disolve it in liquid, and from there the test is the same as urine testing. They like to use this type of test because the drug will stay in the hair until the hair grows out, unless something happens to the hair to allow the substance to be washed away.
It's hard to say. If the child was already moved because of neglect, they would be reluctant to send him back to his mother. On the other hand, I doubt they'd leave him, or any of the other children, in the same home as a drug user (even if he's quitting). Is your husband in treatment? That would probably be the single best point in favor of the children staying in the home. Otherwise, all the children may have to go to your mother-in-law for the time being. And it doesn't matter that you think that since the children were asleep, the drug use isn't as serious -- CAS doesn't care if the children were watching or not, since they'd still be at risk. I'd recommend that you not use that defense, since CAS would think you're trying to justify or minimize the severity of the drug use.

If you were to present the option of letting your son go to the Mother in law's house while they conduct their investigation and are very cooperative, then come court time that will reflect well on your behalf. They can not just take him away without court proceedings, so that is the best place to present your case as the CPS will when power struggles. Hope this helps.

Your husband should deny that he used cocaine, tell them the Dr got it incorrect, maybe he said he had used once, some time in the past.
You could have been lying to the Dr when you told him your husband used cocaine.
He may pass the test, if he is afraid he can try that soap they sell at the head shops, I attended a class on drug use and the lab tech that talked about hair tests said that the soap works, but it is very harsh on the hair. Bleaching the hair can also remove the residue of cocaine from it. To not be too noticeable he could try home dye in his own hair color. I know a woman who tried, and it worked for pot. She left the dye on for about 2 hours, but I don't know if that is necessary.
If they believe there is drug use in the home they might take the kids, or at least let you place them with a relative, but if you sent them away then you might look suspicious.
If you look at what has happened in Texas with those 400 children you will see that the state is capable of taking children with no evidence of any wrongful behavior. Once they get into your life be afraid, be very afraid.
Why would your husband use cocaine at night, doesn't it keep you awake??
The way that hair is tested is the same as a urine test. They cut some hair from the base of the neck, usually because it won't show as much. then they measure about an inch or less near the root, pulverize it, and disolve it in liquid, and from there the test is the same as urine testing. They like to use this type of test because the drug will stay in the hair until the hair grows out, unless something happens to the hair to allow the substance to be washed away.
It's hard to say. If the child was already moved because of neglect, they would be reluctant to send him back to his mother. On the other hand, I doubt they'd leave him, or any of the other children, in the same home as a drug user (even if he's quitting). Is your husband in treatment? That would probably be the single best point in favor of the children staying in the home. Otherwise, all the children may have to go to your mother-in-law for the time being. And it doesn't matter that you think that since the children were asleep, the drug use isn't as serious -- CAS doesn't care if the children were watching or not, since they'd still be at risk. I'd recommend that you not use that defense, since CAS would think you're trying to justify or minimize the severity of the drug use.
I need help and legal advice for child custody issue in the Philippines?
I have a very beautiful daughter in the Philippines, she is 3 years old. Her mom constantly uses her to get money from me. I send her $300 monthly, but almost always she comes back and asks for more. When I can't give it she waits a day or two then tells me that our daughter is sick or has a fever and was rushed to the hospital. I'm still married to her mom, who also tried to put me on child support despite the fact we're still married and I send money. This woman on occasion has threatened my life and safety of my family. She even sent a ';friend'; over to my house who she met online. I have txt msgs where she claims to have given my daughter away and even a few where she claims my daughter died, according to her my daughter died twice. My wife ';died'; once before as well. I would like to get custody of my daughter if possible. I've only seen my daughter once, I very much want to be in every aspect of her life not just financially.I need help and legal advice for child custody issue in the Philippines?
Keep every single text message, letter, bank statements -anything as evidence to prove all this and contact a lawyer firm to see if this can be dealt with even overseas.
Your daughter shouldn't be with her because she sounds very unstable and and dangerous.
Also my mum is Filipino and she took me to the Philippines last year - I saw how much poverty is going on there and if you know that your daughter is living in a bad envrionment then you can also explain this to your laywer.
Good luckI need help and legal advice for child custody issue in the Philippines?

Concerned Granddaughter Looking for Legal Advice in maybe a Negligent Doctor Case?
Please only answer if you are somewhat educated in the legal or medical field.
My Grandfather is currently in the hospital. The doctors say he has a blood infection and it has damaged his pace maker and they are considering removing his left leg (because that's were the infection is coming from as far as I can gather) They also told us if he would have been dead in a few days if they had not found this blood infection.
Now, for the last six months or so he has been experiencing these seizure like episodes, I know they are not real seizure, but that's the best way I can describe them because of the way he shakes, from head to toe, during which he has trouble breathing yet he can still talk. They can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 45 minutes.
Last year after getting most of his left lung removed from cancer, he got a blood infection and the doctors had to take out his artificial left knee and gave him a pick (sp?) line where he had to have antibiotics every 8 hours and after about three months they gave him a new knee.
These 'shaking episodes' started shortly after. His old doctor kept trying to give him different medication, ( to stop the shakes) nothing seemed to work. My grandfather asked him to take some of his blood and test it, but his doctor told him ';You don't need a blood culture (sp?) If you had a blood infection you'd be dead by now';
Finally, my Grandfather decided to get a new doctor. He went for an appointment on a Friday (20th) and he got a call Saturday (21st) morning telling him to go to the hospital. He had a blood infection.
So, now to my question (thank you for taking the time to read this and get this far) is there anything I can do to make sure that doctor doesn't do anything like this to another patient? I live with my Grandparents and I have watched my Grandpa suffer and it just makes my blood boil to know a simple blood test would have told us what was wrong with him.
Again thanks for your help. I tried to write as much as I could that I thought would help.
Any information or ideas are most welcome.Concerned Granddaughter Looking for Legal Advice in maybe a Negligent Doctor Case?
I'm sorry for everything your grandfather, grandmother and you are going through. Since he's currently in the hospital under the new doctor's supervision, talk with one of the hospital's social workers about getting a referral for a malpractice lawyer to handle a potential case against the original doctor. Make sure they understand you're not talking about the hospital or the current doctor and they might steer you in the right direction or explain to you why you shouldn't pursue it since they would have all of your grandfather's medical info.
I hope you grandfather gets better quickly now that they've identified the blood infection. But those can be very difficult to treat. My best thoughts are with you all.Concerned Granddaughter Looking for Legal Advice in maybe a Negligent Doctor Case?

Plz.give me a legal advice?
A criminal,vijay singh had demolished my boundry wall in bihar in night .my father had filed criminal cases against them and they are chargesheeted in two cases under 379 and rioting.To take revenge they also filed fake cases against my father.after 1 year lower court had ta ken cognisance and summoned my father.they charged my father ,who is of 67 years old,retiredgovt.servant that he had stolen his legal books and beaten his family members in completly fake case.
Plz.guide what in this my father can do to ?Plz.give me a legal advice?
if your father can file another criminal case and contempt petition, then it would hamper their criminal case. you mention in your case that to take revenge the respondents have file fake case and thus, it is amounts to clear contempt of Court. you first file an FIR in the police station concerned. take advise of good lawyer. but keep it in your mind clearly that u have to accompany your father as he is in his old age and you have fight a lot. In a state like biher where terror activities are at peak, they may provide harm to you also. So be vigilant and all the best. you may contact a number of advocates in delhi who are bihar residents.Plz.give me a legal advice?
Alone Contempt proceeding will not be of much help, as such engage a Private Detective, to prove the Opponennt was a real criminal, and has Criminal records,besides, many people he has terrorised, and or suppressed with his Might,and collect rlevent informations documents that leads to, your sucess in the case. As it is well known in Bihar, the LEGAL RAMBOS, who has the Political supporters, as such caution is very important. to save your skin.
The best way of suggestion, I would like to offer, is, get the matters between both of you, be settled, out of court. The settlement be reduced to, in writting and signed, by both parties, in presence of witnesses. Or else, there can not be any fruitful result enjoyed by any of parties for unlimited periods of time to come in future. Thanks.

Reporting a person giving legal advice without a license?
I need to know how and where to report a person (a LSW) giving legal advice without a license in the State of New York. How can I do that? I've already searched the NY State BAR association but found no link, no email, no info on how to do it.
ThanksReporting a person giving legal advice without a license?
Mediators can provide advice and state their opinion, however they cannot do so an imply they are doing so as an appointed member of the court staff and specifically directed to mediate by the judge handling to case.
Anyone can offer to listen to a dispute and get paid for doing so, as long as they make it clear they have no legal standing with the court system and they must only express their opinion and suggest what they would do were they faced with the situation being discussed....If on the other hand they represent themselves as officially representing the court and a specific judge and they are no, you simply file a written complaint to the State Bar...The Bar will call you or send you specific forms to be filled out and sent back to them....At some point you will be asked to give a statement....If this doesn't fill your need, you can always hire an attorney to represent you and file an action against the so called mediator.Reporting a person giving legal advice without a license?
If you genuinely feel this individual is over-stepping her boundaries you can discuss the matter with a superior, request another mediator, or discuss the matter with your states DA or Attorney General if it's substantiated.
But keep in mind, many LSW's work as family law/court appointed mediators, (and other areas of mediation.) Though they are not there to practice law, they are there to advise and discuss the different points of law that are relevant to the case and relating to each side.
It is up to the parties involved whether to take that advice and come to an equitable decision or not. They are also paid for those services. Their fees are usually split equally between the parties involved.
Though this individual may be aggressive in her manner and you may disagree with her methods, with all do respect, it sounds like she is just doing her job.
Is the person charging you for the advice? If so, then go to the DA with it and ask them. If this person isn't charging you, and you know he/she is not a lawyer, it is just a matter of this person giving you an opinion and it is your job to verify it, and it was your choice to listen to it, so I would doubt you have a case.
It is like me. I am not a lawyer, I am just telling you what I would do, and I cannot be held liable if you follow my advice.
Mediators in New York State are not required to be attorneys. As a mediator, she can advise you of her understanding of the law and explain why you should accept her determination. If you don't like her determination, unless it is binding arbitration, then you are still free to take your claim to court, where you may be represented by a licensed attorney and a judge/jury will rule on your claim.
A mediator is an independent agent hired by opposing parties to assist in the adjudication and resolution of a given issue. A mediator does not have to be a lawyer or a licensed professional. If both parties agree after the mediation, they may enter into a binding agreement. The mediator is usually hired by a commission set up under law for a particular jurisdiction (ex. family court, labor dept). The mediator may charge a reasonable fee to both parties. Todd Crawford, Esq. New York.
Thats laughable. It's merely advice. The person giving it is not forcing them to take it. If that were the case 99% of us here in this forum would be reported.
I find it ironic that you wish to report someone not licensed to give you advice and come to a forum filled with non licensed users.
Mediation is not legal advice, nor is it considered the practice of law. The NY State Bar just won't be interested in your complaints.

I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
Ok heres the deal my boyfriend brother had a car that he didnt want anymore so, he asked if we would take over the payments. The car is still in his brothers name and we had it over a year now. Recently his brother got a divorce with his wife. When this happen she had a drango so he asked us to take over the payments. We probably had the drango for five months now, this is in his brothers name too. So heres my question he just lost his truck cause he couldnt afford the payment now he wants one of the vechles back do we legally have too. I really need some legal information on this.I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
Legally the car is his. He owes you what you paid for the vehicle after you subtract the devaluation amount of one year. It probably devalued at a rate of $400 per month. Just consider it a lease and give it back based upon money paid versus devaluation. Next time take out a loan and title it in your own name. I need help on legal advice on two cars we now have can someone please help?
I'm not a lawyer, or a judge, ok? But this one is easy, you don't own the car. Do you have a sales contract with him that states you own the car as long as you are making the payments? Do you have the title to the car with him as lienholder? If the answer is no to both questions, you don't have any legal binding argument to keep the car. Consider the payments you made to be ';rental'; payments as you used it during the time period you were paying on it. It's still his car.
If the vehicle is registered in his name, and if you have nothing in writing, you have to give it up. Just look at the payments you made as rent on the vehicle while you were using it.
Don't enter into such an informal deal in the future. You voided the insurance coverage on the vehicle, if there was any. Have an accident and you are not covered.
You do not own the vehicles. The Brother does. You could take him to court for the money you paid on them. Family financial dealings should always be in writing since they are always the first ones to try and rip you off.
Go to small claims court no lawyers needed the judge will listen and make a decision.

Teen in need of legal advice?
I know I posted this once already but I got only few answers.
I am 17 and have been living with my boyfriend since our baby was born. (8 months ago) Recently my boyfriend and I got into an argument. (The first actual argument in 2 years.) And my mother has it in her head that I need to move back in at her home with the baby. She came over yesterday morning yelling and screaming exaggerating and twisting almost everything I said. I stayed as calm as I could. Later that day I went over to my mothers house to talk to her because she would not answer my calls. I talked to her calmly, she yelled at me and slammed the door in my face. She has told me that she is going to get an attorney and make me move back in at her house.
The main points are:
Im 17.
I have been living with my boyfriend for 8 months.
We have a child together.
I have a job.
My mother has gotten the law involved
and I would like to know what I could do
or what the steps are to being emancipated.
Please do not copy and paste paragraphs from a legal website.
I just want to know the basics of everything.
please and thank you
-MixyTeen in need of legal advice?
I think your mom can do it only TILL your 18Teen in need of legal advice?
Well if you're trying to get emancipated your mom has to agree to it if you are under 18 because you are still a minor. But until you turn 18 your mom has full legal liability over you so she can make you move back home.
At this Point the police will be hesitant to get involved. This would seem to fall under a civil matter excuse the pun. You mother would have to go to the state and have them declare you an unfit mother. That is a very difficult process. I think she will calm down after a few days, then let her talk first. If this is her first grandchild she will be very protective, to the Point of your above situation getting out of hand. I think she realizes trying to drag you home months before you turn eighteen is a futile gesture. Show her you can take care of your child and that you are a good mom and you will be fine.
If you are under age and not living at home that is called a run away. You need to check into becoming emancipated.
You are already emancipated.
if u turn 18 soon i wouldnt worry
Depends on the state you live in.
Odds are you are a runaway and still under her control.
Emancipation? Probably not First you need to live in a state that permits emancipation; not all do. You need a job, the ability to support yourself financially and socially, a place to live, a plan for the court for conducting your life, usually your parents permission, and a court order.
You are in a pickle. Here's what you do: tell her to calm down, or she won't be able to have any part of the child's life. She can't force you to let her see the baby. She can't even force the baby to live there with her, even if she can get you back there. You can leave the baby in the care of its father. In fact, if he had half a mind to do so, he'd be able to get primary custodianship of the child due to the turmoil that would ensue at your mother's house. It would be a bad environment for the baby.
Your mother has a legal right to force you back in, but that doesn't mean she should. You'll understand why she would do so just as soon as your baby starts telling you ';no';. You may be able to talk to her parents in hopes of getting them to calm her down.
At the end of the day, you're almost 18. At that point she will have no rights whatsoever. If she pisses you off, there's nothing stopping you from leaving and not talking to her ever again. Remind her of that.
I am 17 and have been living with my boyfriend since our baby was born. (8 months ago) Recently my boyfriend and I got into an argument. (The first actual argument in 2 years.) And my mother has it in her head that I need to move back in at her home with the baby. She came over yesterday morning yelling and screaming exaggerating and twisting almost everything I said. I stayed as calm as I could. Later that day I went over to my mothers house to talk to her because she would not answer my calls. I talked to her calmly, she yelled at me and slammed the door in my face. She has told me that she is going to get an attorney and make me move back in at her house.
The main points are:
Im 17.
I have been living with my boyfriend for 8 months.
We have a child together.
I have a job.
My mother has gotten the law involved
and I would like to know what I could do
or what the steps are to being emancipated.
Please do not copy and paste paragraphs from a legal website.
I just want to know the basics of everything.
please and thank you
-MixyTeen in need of legal advice?
I think your mom can do it only TILL your 18Teen in need of legal advice?
Well if you're trying to get emancipated your mom has to agree to it if you are under 18 because you are still a minor. But until you turn 18 your mom has full legal liability over you so she can make you move back home.
At this Point the police will be hesitant to get involved. This would seem to fall under a civil matter excuse the pun. You mother would have to go to the state and have them declare you an unfit mother. That is a very difficult process. I think she will calm down after a few days, then let her talk first. If this is her first grandchild she will be very protective, to the Point of your above situation getting out of hand. I think she realizes trying to drag you home months before you turn eighteen is a futile gesture. Show her you can take care of your child and that you are a good mom and you will be fine.
If you are under age and not living at home that is called a run away. You need to check into becoming emancipated.
You are already emancipated.
if u turn 18 soon i wouldnt worry
Depends on the state you live in.
Odds are you are a runaway and still under her control.
Emancipation? Probably not First you need to live in a state that permits emancipation; not all do. You need a job, the ability to support yourself financially and socially, a place to live, a plan for the court for conducting your life, usually your parents permission, and a court order.
You are in a pickle. Here's what you do: tell her to calm down, or she won't be able to have any part of the child's life. She can't force you to let her see the baby. She can't even force the baby to live there with her, even if she can get you back there. You can leave the baby in the care of its father. In fact, if he had half a mind to do so, he'd be able to get primary custodianship of the child due to the turmoil that would ensue at your mother's house. It would be a bad environment for the baby.

The thing is I have not photos but as of right now they still have the sighn on the floor of left hand side befor you get to the four way.

Please Help! Looking for legal advice on paternity during a divorce!?
I separated from my husband in October of 2008. He immediately moved out of state. In April 2009, just as I began the divorce process, I got pregnant. It is now October, and I am still trying to get the divorce finalized. Even though it is a No Fault/No Contest Divorce it is taking too long and I am now afraid that I will still be married when the baby is born and they will legally name my supposed-to-be-ex-husband as the father... If we are legally divorced when the baby is born, can they still make me name him because I conceived while we were married? Does the fact that he and I have not even lived in the same state since last year change anything? I am overwhelmed by the legal distinctions here....Please Help! Looking for legal advice on paternity during a divorce!?
Laura, if you are divorced they cannot make your ex the father on the birth certificate--but they can if you are still married when the child is born. This is what I suggest and did for a client in a similar situation. Get a lawyer and make sure they will represent you and that you can do this in your state. File a petition that when the child is born the man you are divorcing is not named the father on the birth certificate. Better yet if the father agrees file a Petition to have him named the father on the child's birth certificate. The basis of the petition is that since you lived in an entirely different state than the man you are divorcing it is an impossibility that he was the father as he had no physical access to you to get you pregnant. File the Order at the Court House and get 2 true and attest copies (You will have one for the hospital and another for the Bureau of Vital Records.). You will tell them that they are ordered by court to either not put the man you are divorcing as father on the birth certificate or to put the man you want on the birth certificate. Also advise them in a letter written by your attorney that if they fail to do this they will be turned in for Contempt of a Court Order.
***This may not be allowed in your state so it is critical you talk to a lawyer where you reside.
****Everyone who says that the woman can name any father she wants on the birth certificate is WRONG. The law prevents this as if they could do this thousands of celebrities would be named as fathers just in the hope of child support. Assume you can prevent the guy you are divorcing from having his name as father on the birth certificate. Then you will either have to have a man come forward and agree that he is the father or prove paternity by blood test. Could you imagine how stupid it would be if anyone could just name anyone they want as the father on the birth certificate (Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
Btw, in PA (and I am pretty sure OH and NY too) the courts will let you divorce while you are pregnant. Also if you are married (and in the process of a divorce) in PA when you have a baby--unless you do as I suggested your husband is named as the father on the child's birth certificate. The courts will not allow people to make a bastard of their child and change the father on the birth certificate or even order a paternity blood test unless there is a very good reason (for example: the person you want named as the father AND the person named as the father on the birth certicate BOTH agree)Please Help! Looking for legal advice on paternity during a divorce!?
You should have remained true to your vows until the divorce is finalized.
';Getting Divorced'; and ';Divorced'; are NOT the same thing which means you CHEATED on your HUSBAND and got pregnant...
The child was conceived during a lawful marriage, whether or not the child being born while the marriage is still lawful will not change the legal paternity. In order to NOT have your HUSBAND named as the father of this child, you will BOTH need to contest to the paternity and have a test performed. The state will then want to prove the actual paternity for child support reasons. The CHILD is entitled to support and the state will not allow be happy if you should need government assitance now or in the future without knowing the responsible biological father.
I feel horrible for this child... Such a dysfunctional world he/she is coming into...
If your husband pushes the issue (unless the divorce is final) he can have his name put on the birth certificate, but if he doesn't you can put whatever name you wish on it. But most states will not grant a divorce while the wife is prego.
No matter what he is still the father of the child, and has rights unless you feel that you and your childs life is in danger. I would suggest you get your lawyer to see if he can speed up the process, but he will still be legally the father. Paternity will probably have to be determined for the courts.
Regardless of whether or not the divorce is final when the baby is born, they can't force you to name him, or anyone for that matter, as the father.
they cannot make you name the child by him, especially if the divorce is finalized by the time the baby is born. The child's name is the mothers choice.
You CAN NOT get a divorce while you are pregnant! YOU get to name the baby and do not have to have anyone sign the birth cert.
The birth certificate lists the fathers name, not the husbands name.
In Texas they courts will not usually divorce parents when the mother is pregnant, even if the baby is not the husbands.
The husband will have to sign a paper that he is not the father. and the father will haven't o sign an acknowledgment of paternity.
Example, my friend was married. had been separated for 3 yrs and living with another man. had a child by the other man, the father had to sign papers to acknowledge the child and the husband had to sign h e was not the father.
she was getting divorced at the time of the first pregnancy, and the case got dismissed for want of prosecution. her attorney let the case stop because he knew the courts were not going to divorce them. there is a section that says there are no children expected, and even with a no fault no contest divorce, someone still has to go in front of the judge and answer questions. one will be there are no children of the marriage and none are expected.
if you have an attorney he should be able to help you understand the way it works in your state. if you do not, i hope you know he (the husband) still has to be served with the papers, or sign and notarize a waiver of citation.

UPDATE ON RENTER IN NEED OF LEGAL ADVICE?
In late March to early April of 2008 my family signed a 12 month lease at a house in Tucson, AZ. Not soon after we found out that the previous owners had not been paying there mortgage and that the home was being repo'd. On 9-29-08 the house was sold at auction and today we received a note on the door saying that we are going to be evicted .
Now, my question is, can this be legal? We still have at least 6 more months on our lease. I would also be glad to hear some suggestion on what actions I should take.
NOTE: another thing that might be helpful to you is that we are not renting from the previous owner we are renting from a property management company.UPDATE ON RENTER IN NEED OF LEGAL ADVICE?
Sorry to hear about this. My friend went through the same thing last year. Unfortunately once the foreclosure goes through and the courts sell the property at auction then your lease is terminated on the date of sale. My friend tried to fight this for 6 months and still ended up getting evicted. It is best to just move on. If they have already delivered an eviction notice then you should take this time to find something else. You have no choice in this matter and fighting it will only cause you more headaches. You may have a case against your landlord for misleading you and not making you aware of the situation, since it sounds like he has kept you in the dark until you have no options. Good luck. UPDATE ON RENTER IN NEED OF LEGAL ADVICE?
The good news is that you don't have to pay the last 6 months of your lease.
The bad news is that you have to find a new place to live 6 months earlier than you wanted.
Yes its legal. You can ask the company that you signed the lease with to put you up some where temporarily or give you a comparable house to finish out your lease in. I would try for the last one, you signed a lease with xyz company for 12 months for a 2 bedroom/2 bath house in abc city, ask them to find you another 2 bedroom/2 bath house in abc city for the remaining 6 month lease.
Yes, it's legal. If the mortgage wasn't paid, the bank has the right to take over. Your lease is not their problem.
You could technically sue either the management company or the owner for not informing you of this. But I think it would be too much hassle. Just get out of there.makeup tips

Bad head injury - seeking legal advice?
I suffered a serious blow to my head. I was told I has a concussion by my personal MD I have pre-existing dental caries and my teeth in general have not been in great shape. However after the head injury,which partially also was a blow to my mouth. I have noticed loose teeth towards the upper front of my mouth. They were not loose before the trauma and accident. I told my Dr.they were not loose before the blow. However he simply wrote dental caries on my medical records? Does he not think a serious head trauma-mouth injury could loosen poor quality teeth??? How can he make a claim like this?
Thx in advance for any help!

I need free IMMEDIATE legal advice in regards to whether or not my landlord can evict me--and how soon. Help?
I was told by my landlord that I must vacate the premises of my apartment, but am being told that I have at least 60 days before that can legally occur. I am unsure of my legal rights and obligations. I signed a short term sharing agreement, but have nowhere to move to, and no place to move my belongings. I am worried that if I vacate the premises without removing all of my belongings I will lose them with no recourse. Can anyone help me? I live in PA, and am not sure of the legal parameters. Please help! Thanks!I need free IMMEDIATE legal advice in regards to whether or not my landlord can evict me--and how soon. Help?
this will basically depend on whether you're paid up or not. if you're not paid up on rent, you can be evicted in five days. but if you're fully paid up, then there's a longer legal process generally necessary, assuming you have a written legal agreement in the first place.I need free IMMEDIATE legal advice in regards to whether or not my landlord can evict me--and how soon. Help?
Why are you being evicted? Did you get a written notice of eviction? Has he gone to court to LEGALLY evict you? What does the agreement you signed say about being evicted?
I highly doubt this person can just kick you out in 24 hours. They have to follow the law, otherwise, you can sue them. Also, you are right, if you vacate, but leave your stuff to get it later, they can change the locks or make it near impossible for you to get your stuff. You would then be able to take them to small claims and sue them for your stuff or the value of it.

Can i have some legal advice? brother in prison accused for something he hasnt done?
my brother was at home. His freind called on his mobile and told him there is a fight going on, so he rushed over. As soon as he was there the police arrived 10 seconds later.
so the police arrested all of them (there were 10 guys) including my brother. my brother was unaware what actually happened. he just arrived at the scene and got arrested along with other guys
apparently there was a gang rape. the victim was too drunk and cant identify who raped her. (i know this is awful)
but i know my brother will never ever do this. he is way smarter than that. he was in tears saying how he never was involved etc.
the police cant find any evidence on him. but they still kept him locked up including the other guys which i dont care. i care for my brother and know he isnt this sort of brother.
can they lock him up even if they dont have any proof/evidence? he has been there for 3 weeks. i thought police cant lock someone for more than 2 days especially when they dont have evidence.
apparently the girl voulunteered to go out drinking with few guys my brother knows. now she is oblivious to what actually happened
my brother was just at the wrong time and wrong place. but they wont release him even though they cant nothing on him.
anyone out there can advice?
sensible answers please. i really dont need people saying horrible comments. really not in mood. i just care for him, and i know he is innocent. his bloody freinds not even admitting he has nothing to do with it.Can i have some legal advice? brother in prison accused for something he hasnt done?
well my father is serving 15 years in prison for a rape he apparently committed in 1984... there was no dna on her AT ALL and they just did him on circumstantial evidence. he is only 2.5 years in to his sentence and he is living thro hell. his freinds and other witnesses were not rbought forward to support him. trial was a sham and now his life is ruined.
he would have had to have been charged following interviews to have been sent to court to be RIC'd. police would have carried out investigations prior to charging him. he will have then been sent to court, RIC'd and sent to a remand prison..... assuming he has gone not guilty he can remain in custody till the trial... he will not be compensated for any time spent if he is released. he can apply for a release on bail but his solicitor needs to do this. and it will be based on a bail address away from the scene of the rape and not to contact any witnesses.
this girl sounds dreadful. she obviously does not reaise how much ruin she is putting on someones life.Can i have some legal advice? brother in prison accused for something he hasnt done?
until they sort out who was and who was not there, he should be able to make bail.
was he read his rights?
he was arrested, what are the charges? they have to tell him and he is allowed a phone call to lawyer preferably.
they are not going to just let him go because then all of his buddies are also innocent and will be free also.
wrong place at wrong time. get a lawyer and go for bail
a lawyer would probly get him out of this. Get a lawyer and my guess is that if she cant identify him and they have no proof that he did anything then he sould be released. Goodluck!!!
answer mine pleasehttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
When there is a fight, the worst thing that can happen is for nosey people to turn up. If your brother minds his own business, he will not get into trouble.
Incidentally, the prisons are full of people with sisters who think they are wonderful.
He is entitled to a solicitor,get one. They must have carried out a DNA test which will prove his innocence and if he hasn't actually been charged,that is false imprisonment.Don't accept it,make a fuss but above all get a legal team fighting his corner...........
They can check his location by the mobile phone call, the time it was made and the mobile phone mast it went through, then the time taken to get to the location.
The police probably correctly assumed that anyone rushing over to a fight in response to a telephone message only wanted to join in. Normal people would either watch from their house window or from a distance.
Are you in the United States ?
Is your brother charged with a crime?
In order to hold him,they must charge him.
I think you need to hire a good attorney.
You need to get him an attorney ASAP. No, if he hasn't been charged with anything, he shouldn't still be in jail!! Unfortuanately you need to get him an attorney right away to help him out.
sorry don't have any legal advice, but surely they should be able to check phone records to ensure he was called and he couldn't have been there for the whole time
Get a solicitor fast. If cant afford one get the duty solicitor.
He needs a solicitor
Does anyone have a good recipe for mushrooms with pork?
Given that this question is on the UK and Ireland Answers section all of the answers from the USA (as always) are irrelevant.
There is only one way he can have been locked up this long and that is if he has been charged. No one, even terrorist suspects, can be kept in custody without charge this long.
Therefore, you will have to wait until he has appeared before a court - whether he is guilty or not is the court's decision to make.
What I will say is that, in all my 30 years as a policeman, very few families found it possible to accept that a family member committed a violent crime. And if you speak to anyone in prison, they are ALL innocent.
Maybe he is innocent, maybe he isn't, but you are going to have a long wait to find out. However, as the police cannot keep you in custody this long without charge, there is something he isn't telling you I am afraid.
The general consensus seems to be that you need to get him legal assistance. I'm betting that if they have gone through all the appropriate avenues in their efforts to investigate this incident, justice will prevail and your brother will be released. Unfortunately the amount of time required to get him out at this time seems to be indefinite. Rape can sometimes be hard to prove. Pray that they've got a DNA test and that the evidence from it won't incriminate your brother.
Good luck.
First off, you have to look at things uncritically - your brother has been arrested for suspicion of a crime. The powers that be have some reason to suspect your brother. The annals of crime are full of guilty people who seem sincere in their claims of innocence, and who have friends and family who could never understand how their loved ones could do horrible things. No offense, but I don't know you or your brother, and I have no reason to believe your brother is simply innocent.
Your question is, to say the least, suspect - many people post questions like yours and ignore or disclaim the most important detail - why the police have acted the way they did, why did they make an arrest. Obviously, the police had some evidence or they wouldn't have arrested him. Does this mean that people aren;t arrested on trumped up charges? Hardly. But you're going a step past that - you're claiming he was arrested when the police had no reason to.
You need to face the fact that the police found some evidence...somewhere. If you think you're doing your brother any favors by ignoring the possibility that he's guilty, think again. Your brother's defense will have to deal with the evidence against him. And so will you.
They must have some sort of evidence or he would not be on remand in prison. The evidence would have gone to the Crown Prosecution Service who will have decided that there is a case to answer. He would also have been provided with a Solicitor who would not let him stay there if there was no evidence.
Sorry Dear, but this is the way the UK law works.
He needs a lawyer to get him out!
You're innocent until proven guilty so rest assure if what you say is true it's not possible to prove him guilty. It sounds like he's being detained with little to no evidence against him and without a lawyer it will be hard to get him out.
These are potential felony charges so he can get a public defender which I'm a little unsure why he hasn't done already.
He may well have been in the wrong place at the wrong time but the fact remains that he was there.
When the police arrived then they would have arrested everyone they believed was involved.
The fact he was there is enough to get him arrested.
They have a relatively short time (can't remember exactly what) to charge a person. Once charged then the person can be held ';on remand'; until trial.
Sounds like your brother is on remand awaiting trial. This means that the police and the CPS believe there is enough evidence to get a conviction and have charged him. So they obviously have or think they have something ';on him';.
He would have been given access to a lawyer when charged and he should take advantage of that.
The lawyer should try and get him out on bail but if the charges against him are serious then the police would challenge that.
You are asking an impossible question because everyone who gets arrested claims innocence. Unless she can identify him, his buddies testify he was there, or forensics find his semen there, the prosecution would not have much of a case against him. He will likely stay there until all the DNA evidence is analyzed and they can determine whether or not they have enough evidence on him. Until then, your brother will have to sit in jail and reassess his selection of friends.
Rosy... You can't say he is innocent if you were not there, and only going on the fact you know your brother. He was a part of the problem as he was an accomplice, just being there. its called aiding and abetting. The fact is that if these are your brothers friends, then there is a question as to the company he keeps huh? They can keep him until a court date if they choose. The old saying innocent until proven guilty is just a saying. The law as you see everyday is made to protect the guilty. Look at OJ! Hopefully when the time comes they have semen samples. This may sound like a mix up to you, but in reality its a serious crime servable by a prison sentence. You may want a lawyer. When your looking at time, you don't fool around. If you thought you had reasons to suspect you have cancer, would you just ignore it, or get a professional opinion. Sorry that's the facts. Good Luck! I will keep you and your brother in my prayers.

Bad news and good news for you:
1. they can lock him up on charges alone. They don't have to prove it yet. If you are in a state that requires indictment, they can lock him up while he is waiting to be indicted, and from the time he is indicted until he goes to trial.
2. He has a right to bail...within 72 hours of his arrest, he should have had a bail set. If you can pay this bail, he will be out of jail pending indictment/trial, etc. If you can't pay this, you can talk to his public defender and have them make a motion for a reduction of bail. In this case it sounds like a possibility.
He is in Jail,not prison. If there is no evidence he will be released. The state has the preponderance of the evidence.
so the police arrested all of them (there were 10 guys) including my brother. my brother was unaware what actually happened. he just arrived at the scene and got arrested along with other guys
apparently there was a gang rape. the victim was too drunk and cant identify who raped her. (i know this is awful)
but i know my brother will never ever do this. he is way smarter than that. he was in tears saying how he never was involved etc.
the police cant find any evidence on him. but they still kept him locked up including the other guys which i dont care. i care for my brother and know he isnt this sort of brother.
can they lock him up even if they dont have any proof/evidence? he has been there for 3 weeks. i thought police cant lock someone for more than 2 days especially when they dont have evidence.
apparently the girl voulunteered to go out drinking with few guys my brother knows. now she is oblivious to what actually happened
my brother was just at the wrong time and wrong place. but they wont release him even though they cant nothing on him.
anyone out there can advice?
sensible answers please. i really dont need people saying horrible comments. really not in mood. i just care for him, and i know he is innocent. his bloody freinds not even admitting he has nothing to do with it.Can i have some legal advice? brother in prison accused for something he hasnt done?
well my father is serving 15 years in prison for a rape he apparently committed in 1984... there was no dna on her AT ALL and they just did him on circumstantial evidence. he is only 2.5 years in to his sentence and he is living thro hell. his freinds and other witnesses were not rbought forward to support him. trial was a sham and now his life is ruined.
he would have had to have been charged following interviews to have been sent to court to be RIC'd. police would have carried out investigations prior to charging him. he will have then been sent to court, RIC'd and sent to a remand prison..... assuming he has gone not guilty he can remain in custody till the trial... he will not be compensated for any time spent if he is released. he can apply for a release on bail but his solicitor needs to do this. and it will be based on a bail address away from the scene of the rape and not to contact any witnesses.
this girl sounds dreadful. she obviously does not reaise how much ruin she is putting on someones life.Can i have some legal advice? brother in prison accused for something he hasnt done?
until they sort out who was and who was not there, he should be able to make bail.
was he read his rights?
he was arrested, what are the charges? they have to tell him and he is allowed a phone call to lawyer preferably.
they are not going to just let him go because then all of his buddies are also innocent and will be free also.
wrong place at wrong time. get a lawyer and go for bail
a lawyer would probly get him out of this. Get a lawyer and my guess is that if she cant identify him and they have no proof that he did anything then he sould be released. Goodluck!!!
answer mine pleasehttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
When there is a fight, the worst thing that can happen is for nosey people to turn up. If your brother minds his own business, he will not get into trouble.
Incidentally, the prisons are full of people with sisters who think they are wonderful.
He is entitled to a solicitor,get one. They must have carried out a DNA test which will prove his innocence and if he hasn't actually been charged,that is false imprisonment.Don't accept it,make a fuss but above all get a legal team fighting his corner...........
They can check his location by the mobile phone call, the time it was made and the mobile phone mast it went through, then the time taken to get to the location.
The police probably correctly assumed that anyone rushing over to a fight in response to a telephone message only wanted to join in. Normal people would either watch from their house window or from a distance.
Are you in the United States ?
Is your brother charged with a crime?
In order to hold him,they must charge him.
I think you need to hire a good attorney.
You need to get him an attorney ASAP. No, if he hasn't been charged with anything, he shouldn't still be in jail!! Unfortuanately you need to get him an attorney right away to help him out.
sorry don't have any legal advice, but surely they should be able to check phone records to ensure he was called and he couldn't have been there for the whole time
Get a solicitor fast. If cant afford one get the duty solicitor.
He needs a solicitor
Does anyone have a good recipe for mushrooms with pork?
Given that this question is on the UK and Ireland Answers section all of the answers from the USA (as always) are irrelevant.
There is only one way he can have been locked up this long and that is if he has been charged. No one, even terrorist suspects, can be kept in custody without charge this long.
Therefore, you will have to wait until he has appeared before a court - whether he is guilty or not is the court's decision to make.
What I will say is that, in all my 30 years as a policeman, very few families found it possible to accept that a family member committed a violent crime. And if you speak to anyone in prison, they are ALL innocent.
Maybe he is innocent, maybe he isn't, but you are going to have a long wait to find out. However, as the police cannot keep you in custody this long without charge, there is something he isn't telling you I am afraid.
The general consensus seems to be that you need to get him legal assistance. I'm betting that if they have gone through all the appropriate avenues in their efforts to investigate this incident, justice will prevail and your brother will be released. Unfortunately the amount of time required to get him out at this time seems to be indefinite. Rape can sometimes be hard to prove. Pray that they've got a DNA test and that the evidence from it won't incriminate your brother.
Good luck.
First off, you have to look at things uncritically - your brother has been arrested for suspicion of a crime. The powers that be have some reason to suspect your brother. The annals of crime are full of guilty people who seem sincere in their claims of innocence, and who have friends and family who could never understand how their loved ones could do horrible things. No offense, but I don't know you or your brother, and I have no reason to believe your brother is simply innocent.
Your question is, to say the least, suspect - many people post questions like yours and ignore or disclaim the most important detail - why the police have acted the way they did, why did they make an arrest. Obviously, the police had some evidence or they wouldn't have arrested him. Does this mean that people aren;t arrested on trumped up charges? Hardly. But you're going a step past that - you're claiming he was arrested when the police had no reason to.
You need to face the fact that the police found some evidence...somewhere. If you think you're doing your brother any favors by ignoring the possibility that he's guilty, think again. Your brother's defense will have to deal with the evidence against him. And so will you.

Putting A Wrong Right - Legal Advice?
As a child in the 1950s, I believe I was not legally represented properly in the matter of the death of my father, and consequently duped out a great deal of money by a large Union in the UK.
Can anyone give my some advice as to where I can legally start to redress this matter?
Although through the years I have tried to put this matter to the back of my mind, it still feels like unfinished business.
So does anyone out there know legally how or where I could get some advice to put this matter right. It's not about the money, it's about putting a wrong right.
As this matter involves the death of my father, which even today is quite painful for me, I would appreciate it if you could resist sending me any 'try and get over it advice ' or any silly or cruel comments.

Can I get some legal advice?
I have a residency order for my child. I allowed her to go and stay at her Dads for a sort amount of time and he is now refusing to let me see her or to return her is there any quicker way to get her back than going through court? ie can the police enforce the order and go and get her back? Court takes so long and I wanted it settled and my baby home soon
please help Can I get some legal advice?
If you have a residence order, then the child is supposed to be with you unless you permit something different to happen in the child's best interests (such has having some contact with her father).
If someone does something that interferes with this, they are treading into dangerous territory. There is more than one thing that can be done.
Your solicitor using the Family Procedure Court is one method of sorting something but, as you have discovered, this is a slow process. I do not think that your solicitor is simply trying to pad their bill on this or exaggerate the position. You may, in any event, need to use the FPC to adjust whatever orders currently exist in relation to your child, so do not dismiss this totally.
As regards doing something quicker, there are two options. Bardic has pointed to one, but I have found that the police are often reluctant to get involved without some formal intervention first from an official source (such as your solicitor).
The other option is to seek assistance from Social Services. They have powers (and use them) to act very quickly if they believe that a child's welfare is at stake.
I'm sorry that I can't give you a fuller answer, but the information that you can post is, of necessity, quite thin. I do, however, wish you well with getting things sorted.Can I get some legal advice?
if you have a residency order, the police can help. they are empowered to deal with a situation like this. just be careful that in case u ask the police to intervene, the kids dad may just have a lawyer and a counter order or something.
you will need to consult a lawyer in the long run to ensure that something like this does not happen again.
Ok not sure i understand what you are saying do you have legal custody of her right now?who has it on legal paper?
If its in your name and you have it call police they will arrest him and bring the child back to you.
not sure what a residency order is?
Your best bet is to contact a solicitor, they often do a half hour free consultation, check first, they can give proper advise. better than the barrack room lawyers on this site.
I'd certainly speak to the police. Sounds perilously close to kidnapping.

Help me i need legal advice?
my father is in the hospital and my step mother wont even tell me which hospital but dont i being his blood daughter have more right than her being his 2nd wifeHelp me i need legal advice?
No. You do not have any rights with regard to your father unless you have a durable power of attorney for health care that he filled out. Otherwise, the spouse is always the next of kin. As long as he his married (even if he gets separated), your stepmother is his next of kin and has the legal authority to make any and all medical decisions on his behalf if he can't do so.
You have absolutely no rights whatsoever.
Additionally, if he were to pass away without a will chances are pretty good you would not inherit a thing. The spouse inherits the entire estate - and it doesn't matter if it's a second or even third marriage.Help me i need legal advice?
A child does not have more rights than a spouse. Although the spouse might in some circumstances have more rights than the child, the spouse does not have more rights than the patient himself.
If your dad is competent and conscious, he can make his own decisions.
The question is whether your dad wants to or is able to talk to you, not whether his wife doesn't want you to talk to him.
I agree with those who suggest that you call the hospitals. Try calling other relatives or close friends of your father, or his church pastor, or his place of employment if you want to - DO NOT tell them the part about your problems with your stepmother. Tell them that you have not been able to reach your father and that you have reason to believe that he is in the hospital. That ought to be good enough.
So what if your stepmother gets mad? She'll just have to deal with it, just like you have to deal with being so far away, having to call 20 hospitals, etc.
Particularly if he is gravely ill then it is understandable that you will want to make arrangements to see him. If nothing else you can send him a card.
If there is a telephone in your dad's room you can call him.
If your stepmother answers and refuses to let you speak to him or if the hospital claims privacy ask for ask to speak to social services or a floor nurse and ask them to talk to your father and give him your contact information. (Maybe they won't do it, but no harm in asking.)
If he is well enough to speak then he can express his wishes which will trump his wife's wishes.
If he is NOT well enough to speak then in a compassionate situation the phone could be held to his ear so you can tell him that you love him and are thinking of him. (Which was done for my father when he was gravely ill and my brother was across the country.)
As far as durable powers of attorney or the right to make medical decisions for your father, he makes his own decisions if he is able. It is likely that he would have appointed his wife as the person to make medical decisions because you are so far away.
Don't rely on legal advice from Yahoo Answers. For example, the advice in an earlier post (which I don't think you asked for) about inheritance rights is not correct. If your dad has a will, then the will states who will inherit how much and what, except that property that he owns jointly (in writing) with your stepmother will go to her. Chances are that relatively little of your father's assets are his sole, separate property, but that would be sorted out when the time comes... which we all hope is not any time soon.
If your dad disinherited you and left everything to his wife, so be it.
If he has no will then the laws of ';intestate succession'; apply. Under Georgia law, if a person dies without a will the spouse does NOT inherit everything. If there is one child, then the estate is split 50-50. If there is more than one child then the spouse gets 1/3 and the children get equal shares of the remaining 2/3 of the estate.
Again, this only applies to property that is solely owned by your dad. Property and accounts that are jointly owned by your father with your stepmother would be hers.
And, again, do not take my word for this.
If you go see your father please do not be suckered into a fight with your stepmother.
I am so sorry for this difficult situation. You are having a ';character-building experience.';

Someone give me some legal advice, please... O.O?
I have a friend, his name is Chris.
He had a fiancee, her name is Jackie.
She bought him a truck, but put the truck under both of their names. But she GAVE him the truck. It's his.
They split up, but now she's making his life a living hell! She's stolen the tag off his truck, put nails in his driveway AND mine (she assumed there was something going on with me and him...). She's continually harassed me and him.
We're in Alabama...
PLEASE tell me what me or Chris (or both) should do!
I have no idea where to start...Someone give me some legal advice, please... O.O?
I agree with what the breeze said...
give back the truck
and move onSomeone give me some legal advice, please... O.O?
Legally speaking, the truck belongs to both of them. So even though it is an a@@hole thing to do, she is legally allowed to take the tag, scratch the paint, or whatever.
He has two choices: continue to put up with this nonsense, or just sign the truck over to her and let her have it back.
(Personally, I would take the 2nd choice. It's just a truck,. and you can always get another truck. But she is using this as a way to get revenge or in a sick plan to lure him back or whatever. She is obviously a nut. Give her the truck back and move on.)
Not much you can do unless she's is willing to assign her 1/2 ownership over to him which she can do so on reverse of title. Which brings up another issue. Did she pay for the truck? If not some finance company holds the title and who is making the payments? She may have given him the truck but legally it belongs to both of them in name. What a tangled web we weave.
He has to be able to prove the truck was a gift, which will be almost impossible, given that she is a co-owner. Personally I would get my name off it and take the bus for a while.
He can still get a restraining order for the harassment and vandalism, though. Call the non-emergency line of your local police about that.
The truck is owned by whoever's name is on the title -- in this case, both of them. You haven't given someone a truck unless you've signed over the title. Legally, she has every much as right to the truck as Chris does. The fact that she paid for it doesn't hurt her claim either.
Good luck.
Restraining order; lawsuit for harassment; and get her name off the truck.
You are in Alabama... can't you just shoot her?

The truck is owned by whoever's name is on the title -- in this case, both of them. You haven't given someone a truck unless you've signed over the title. Legally, she has every much as right to the truck as Chris does. The fact that she paid for it doesn't hurt her claim either.
Good luck.
Restraining order; lawsuit for harassment; and get her name off the truck.
You are in Alabama... can't you just shoot her?
Can someone give me legal advice?
I seen an ad that a local super Kmart was doing for pizzas 5 for 10 dollars. I got up and was waiting in line a half hour before the doors opened. I struck up another conversation with another guy and he was there for the pizzas two. We started getting a little heated outside as he said all the pizzas were his and Id have to find another Kmart. The doors were opened and we rushed in running through the ailse. He eventually pushed me when we were running into a large stack of canned stuff which all fell on me and hurt like hell. I eventually got to my feet and went running to the freezer section and seen the man with 30 or so pizzas stacked in 10s. I rushed over an tackled him to the floor but he overpowered me and slammed me into a glass freezer door which cracked on impact. I was able to wrestle him into the open floor freezer and he started hitting me over the head and throwing frozen pizzas at me. Eventually we ended up back on the floor fighting. The police were there in 10 min or so and took us in. Can I file suit against the store and the Idiot that harmed me? I also want to sue for loss of money because the next week I ha to pay 9 dollars for 3 pizzas so that cost me at least 6 bucks.Can someone give me legal advice?
I guess it really depends on the type of pizzas you were fighting for. I mean where they Jacks or Tombstone Pizzas or a cheaper brand.
A good frozen pizza is worth fighting for in todays economy. You have to keep your budget within reason and when you find a good deal. Exploit it to the max. Thats what the other guy was trying to do.
I would have spilled a sode on him and then took his pizzas when he was in the bathroom cleaning up.Can someone give me legal advice?
My legal advice to you is do not tell this story under oath.
My considered legal opinion is that it would be Perjury to do so.
Translation: You're going to have to provide a link to a local news article about it before I even believe any of this actually happened.
K Mart pizzas aren't worth two dollars in the first place.
I don't believe for a moment this scenario is real.
IF IT IS, you were BOTH fighting, you BOTH broke the freezer door. You BOTH will be lucky if you aren't prosecuted and ordered to pay restitution for the damages you BOTH caused inside the store.
All for cheap pizza...sure.
My advice to you:
Don't get in a fight over $2.00 Pizzas.
You can sue anyone you want, but you probably will not win.
If you'd just increase your medication dosage, things like this can be avoided in the future.
I think your best chance to sue would be your parents and the public school system.
Good luck.
FYI - Walmart has a $4/10 pizza sale going on this week.
Wear your helmet this time.
LOL
When he pushed you into the display, you should have gotten the manager involved. You retaliated and therefore are also in the wrong-all this over some stinking pizza? Maybe you both need to assess your life's priorities.

I need some serious legal advice.?
I just got out of jail, I had a really bad pill addiction that I've been trying to kick. I just got a DUI but blew .000 and they piss tested me and I was under the influence of oxycodone and xanax, they also found drug paraphernalia in the form of a straw and 13 oxycodone and 2 xanax.
I don't have much of a legal history just a marijuana charge that was ex-sponged.
I have a friend with a perscription for both pills, if he were to claim the pills that were found while I was under the influence would he be in any trouble?
I go to court on the 25th, what should I be expecting to happen?
This is all happening in the state of Florida, my charges are DUI, possession of a controlled substance x2 and drug paraphernalia.
Please help.I need some serious legal advice.?
You can expect to return to jail, for a longer stretch this time. What you really need is rehab, and you should tell your lawyer to ask for it. Yes, your friend could get in trouble, so don't draw him into it.
In case you don't already know it, crushing and snorting pills is a sure way to OD. Pills are designed to be absorbed gradually, so when you snort crushed pills, you can easily shock your system by taking in too much at once. This is the reason so many oxycontin abusers died. Don't let this happen to you.I need some serious legal advice.?
Yes, your friend will get in trouble so take to rap and ask the judge for rehab and get some help.

I have been denied an automotive claim by Progressive Insurance for a total loss-grand theft auto.
Reason given for denial of claim- ';Your Nephew, Ryan H####, advised us during a telephone interview that your truck was stolen prior to the policy being taken out online...';
I want to hear a copy of this recording, My Nephew swears that he did not tell them that. I want to hear it for myself, but Progressive says it is their recording and I cant listen to it. I can find my way around a law library pretty good...sort of. Please tell me the procedure/papers I need to file in order to obtain a copy of this recorded conversation from when Progressive called my mother's house and recorded a conversation with Ryan where he supposedly sunk me. Ryan denies saying anything to them except that it was a nice truck. I really want to hear the tape. Please explain to me the legal process, papers I need to file with the (county?) court in order to obtain a copy of this conversation.
I did one time in the past, teach myself how to file an emergency motion to get my foreclosed home back from the entity that bought it on the courthouse steps/forclosure auction. But that's a different story. Just letting you know that after explaining my unique situation to the judge's clerk, she told me what I needed to file to request a hearing and also told me where to look in the law library to learn how to file the correct paperwork.
BTW-I was successful in getting the house back. Me on one side of the long table, and 5 lawyers representing 3 different law firms on the other side, with the judge at the head of the table. I am not bragging, I am just proud that I was able to save my home without having to hire a lawyer, because I am disabled, living on a very meager SS check, even though I worked my a## off for 40 years making $60K per as a construction project manager. I have no idea about law procedure or how law libraries are organized, but if someone will ponit me in the right direction, I will surely do all I can to find the necessary info on procedure, how to fill out the proper forms, and the necessary fees involved. I am sorry to all you lawyers out there that I cannot afford you at this time in my life, please do not take offense. I admire your profession and wish I would have persued a law degree instead of business management. Thank you in advance for your help.
I need to hear this tape so I can find out how damaging it would be to my case before I decide to allocate some of my meager Social Security check to hire an attorney. Thanks again please help.I need some legal instructions....NOT asking for legal advice....please advise.?
You don't need to hear the recording. And even if they have a recording, it would probably not be admissable as evidence in a civil matter. Progressive knows that! They're stalling you with a bluff. The longer time passes in the matter of your vehicle, the harder it will be for you to have a successful claim. Progressive knows that too. File a suit against Progressive in any court. If the amount of your claim is too high for a given court, the court will send you to a higher court. Eventually, you'll have your day in court. If the insurance papers are in order, you'll win and Progressive will have to honor your claim. Regardless of who told them what in a telephone conversation. In fact, once you start the law suit and papers are sent to Progressive, they will make settlement. For sure. They don't have a leg to stand on, and they know it.

I need some legal advice on property damage.?
I crashed into someone's car and broke the windshield on the back. I was not driving, I was on my bike. And the car was parked on the side of the road and there was no one inside. I didn't do this on purpose of course. Then I called the ambulance and the police came as well. Later, I got a call from the car's owner's insurance company telling me to pay for the damage. Instead of paying money, can I offer to repair the car at an auto shop? Because getting a repair at an auto shop cost less than the actually damage payment. Or do I absolutely have to pay for the damage?
In case that the owner has already repair the window, can I ask for the receipt of the repair and just pay that amount?
What are the legal process for that? Do I have to go to court? I need some legal advice on property damage.?
You understand that this can all be covered from your auto insurance? Just as if you were on a bike and you were hit by a car.
If you want to handle it away from your insurance and are paying out of pocket, you have every right to see the estimate or final repair bill. If the owner or the insurance carrier has already paid, yes you do owe the full bill. They have a choice of repair shops.
If it was going through your insurance, the other carrier would have to submit an estimate to your insurance also.I need some legal advice on property damage.?
You absolutely, 100%, have to PAY that person for the damage you caused. You are entitled to only have to pay a reasonable cost but you will pay. I would suggest you tell him to file it under his insurance and they will work out a payment plan with you.

I need some legal advice please if anyone can help. I'm in the UK.....?
What would happen to my son if my husband and i died. He is nearly two. We would want my parents to be his legal guardians as he sees them three or four times a week and they are very close. We do not see my husbands dad (mum died).
We have not made a will yet and are planning to do so, but what would happen if something were to happen to us without a will. We are going away this weekend and he will be with my parents. What i'm trying to say is could anyone come along and take him away from my parents and put him into a foster home (sorry if i sound naive, i have no idea about these things) or could he stay with them until they can become his legal guardians.
Thanks very muchI need some legal advice please if anyone can help. I'm in the UK.....?
Under English law, the usual way of ensuring who is to look after your child in the event of both parents dying is to have a will and in the will you would both appoint a testamentary guardian or guardians. The wording would be something like:
'; In the event that I am the sole surviving parent of x (child's name) I appoint y and z to be his testamentary guardians.';
I would point out that children are not treated under the law as chattels (goods), so parents can't just leave them to anyone unsuitable - it is always open to anybody who thinks the children should be with someone else to make a residence application to the Court under the Children Act. Because of this, if there is any likelihood whatsoever that anyone might object to the appointed guardians, I always ask the parents to leave an explanatory letter with the will, stating why they have chosen those particular people rather than anyone else. The usual reason would be because the children see the chosen guardian regularly and know them, or because they are more suitable in some other way. This gives guidance to the court and any welfare authorities, and would be an important factor to consider in any court hearing.
In your particular circumstances, as you are not intending to make a will before going away, I suggest you both leave a letter appointing guardians in the event of your death. The letter should be dated and it should be witnessed by two adults who should not be relations or the proposed guardians (even the postman would do as a witness if you can't find anyone!). The 2 witnesses should both be present in the room together and actually witness your signature. The letter should then be placed in a safe place where it can be easily found if necessary.
PS MissyDoo is wrong saying godparents would be chosen in the event that you haven't appointed anyone. They do not have any legal standing, and indeed would be unlikely to be chosen over close blood relations unless a VERY good case could be made out for them in court, which is unlikely. Godparents are not always close, and what if they are agnostic? I was personally chosen as a godmother many years ago, and have never considered it necessary to do anything, as the parents knew of my belief on this score, and I haven't seen my god daughter more than a few times in her life (she is now about 50) as we lost touch.I need some legal advice please if anyone can help. I'm in the UK.....?
The child welfare office will step in, but in all likelihood the child will be left with the grandparents. Their aim is to provide the best for the child, and it is obvious the grandparents (providing they are able) are the best choice.
But more seriously, MAKE A WILL!!. It takes very little time to draw up a simple will. There is no excuse, even on short notice, for not preparing a will. In the will, you can set out your own wishes for your child.
Problem solved.
Your husband is nearly two?
Get a solicitor to draw up a will and make provision in it for that to happen.
My daughter did just that with her little boy saying that we gave her a happy childhood and she knew we would do the same for him. Thankfully it has not come to that.
You do hear of some horror stories about social services but most officers are trying to do their best for the children. like most professions you do get some right head bankers and then it all goes wrong because the managers feel they have to back their staff
No not just anyone could come along and take him. He would be taken to live with either your parents or your husbands parents. I think they could choose whom wanted him but if they started to fight over him then they might have to go to court and that would be a mess. just state whom you want your son to live with in the event of your death. Also i know where i live that if you legally make someone your child's god parents in the event of your death your kids would go live with the god parents. You should get a will done soon if you are that worried about dying.
i dont want to scare you but,the Social work department would be right in there messing it all up,they would ask if your parents werent too old,and the kid would probably end up in care,will or no will.until your parents got some good legal adviser,to sort it out,take care.i saw two parentson TV at the beginning of the week,monday i think on breakfast television trying to get there three kids back after being cleared of harming them by social services,they had a bone deficiency that made their bones crack.even after a Top Judge had said there had been a miscarridge of justice,they still have to fight to get their kids,the social services say its in the best interest of the kids that they stay with the foster parents now.they always mess thing up.

I need a legal advice or opinion on this, will somebody help please?
My friend is employed in a telecommunication office. Recently his boss and at the same time owner of the company obtained a loan from a bank using the names of some of the employees, including my friend. So, its as if they were the one who applied for the loan. They were asked by their boss to sign the loan application for which they did eventually for fear of losing their jobs. After the loans were granted, the boss took all the money and used it for the company. Now, my friend wants to file a legal complaint on the company. What case could my friend file? Please help......I need a legal advice or opinion on this, will somebody help please?
He needs to get a lawyer right away. It might fall under duress the signing of the loan. Unless his boss is planning to make them partners with a good share then he is not allowed to do what he did. Call a lawyer and give him all the details. If the loan is not paid he will be liable.I need a legal advice or opinion on this, will somebody help please?
It is not illegal to ask employees to invest in a company or to assist a failing company. It sounds like he didn't demand it, as he discussed it with the employees and the employees decided to sign. In my opinion they were fools. If the company doesn't evenhave access to credit they are doomed anyway and getting the loan merely delayed the inevitable. When the loan comes due, the employees are going to be personally liable as they borrowed the money.
Hi
I saw your question I have decided to help people out due to the fact that I myself has been scammed twice by fake lenders in my search for a loan but at last I got a reliable lender that gave me the loan($60,000 USD) that I was in dire need of even with a bad credit. Hence I decided that I will refer anybody I come across to this God sent lender he is reliable and his terms are fair. You can get to him via his email address charles_lenders@yahoo.com Please tell him that Deborah Kirk he gave out a loan to me . I have search for a legit lender until I got him and I decided to help my fellow humans with this because there are a lot of fake lenders out there and I do not want any body to fall a prey please get to him and tell him that I referred you to him.
Thanks.
Deborah Kirk
It can both criminal and civil in nature. Criminal - Cheating. Clearly the boss was out to make wrongful gain by intentionally using the names of his employees for which he knows for a fact that the money does not meant to be used by those employees. Civil - The loan transaction can be null and void. It's clearly signed under duress - for fear of losing ones job. It could be under misrepresentation in that the employees could have been told to sign under some sort of pretext. However, it is strange that any one would sign such document simply for fear of losing his job. Further, the company who grants the loan would have checked personal particulars of the borrower. It just does not make sense unless the employer loans money and those employees are made to be his guarantor.

Civil - The loan transaction can be null and void. It's clearly signed under duress - for fear of losing ones job. It could be under misrepresentation in that the employees could have been told to sign under some sort of pretext. However, it is strange that any one would sign such document simply for fear of losing his job. Further, the company who grants the loan would have checked personal particulars of the borrower. It just does not make sense unless the employer loans money and those employees are made to be his guarantor.
