QUESTIONS

  • I rent a mobile. This mobile now has black mold inside the walls and in closets everywhere. The landlord tells me just to move, that it's only from the monsoon. I can't afford to move. Isn't he responsible for the condition of the mobile?
  • I am currently expecting a baby. The father of my baby left me when I was 7 months, but has stated he wants to be in the baby's life. He is a habitual marijuana smoker, heavy drinker, and the people he surrounds himself with are not the kind of influences I want around my child. He moved in with his mom, who keeps a very dirty house and has been in and out of the hospital with MRSA for the last couple of years. I do not feel like he can provde a safe and stable environment for my daughter. He believes he will get joint custody. What actions do I need to take to ensure this does not happen?
  • should the state appoint me a public defender in my case? i was in a car accident in my own front yard and was arrested 2 days later. the judge released me on no probable cause and was dropped the next day. a month later the municipal court sent a letter saying i have all these charges. plead not guilty and to trial. the judge then told me i had to repersent myself and i wasnt getting a public defender. my charges are aggravated assualt w/deadly weapon(2), reckless driving, disorderly conduct, and domestic violence what should i do
  • I was convicted of a DUI, and have 10 months remaining on unsupervised probation. I would like to have my conviction "set aside", and if possible have my probation terminated early, because I will be applying for a nursing license in 6 months. I don't have the money for a lawyer, and am wondering if there are any ways/resources people could lead me to, to do this on my own.
  • If I feel I earned more than I was paid, is there a government organization I can call to confirm that?
  • My brother owes back child support and has a current warrant because of it. If he pays his child support in full will they still make him serve time or can the warrant be lifted at the time he pays the child support?
  • Can I evict some one if I don't own the resident
  • can my landlord/property manager enter my gated back yard without proper notice. i have small children who play out in the backyard and feel that we should have our privacy when in our home but he just comes over when ever he feels like it. he does not enter the house just the yard in the lease it says that we as the tenants are responsible for maintenance in the front and back yard so there is really no reason for him to be there, he also sprays weed poison with out telling us is any of this legal.
  • I lost my job almost a year ago. I was denied unemploymt due to a paperwork problem and didn't appeal as I kept thinking I had a job right around the corner. I didn't. I finally got a job, right after I filed the appeal. They denied me because I hadn't been checking in every week. Is there anything I can do to get my "back-pay"? I was applying for jobs the whole time and can prove it.
  • Do both parties have to notify the court when their income changes?
