  • I shared a house with two others. I paid rent on time as well as utilities. No rental agreement was given to me and my name is not on the lease. A rental application was submitted. I am now being sued for non payment of rent and non usage utility cost because I moved out prior to the lease expiring.
  • My partner is disabled, I am her sole support but I want to break up with her. She is demanding reasonable accommodations. What rights does she have to ask this from me I am not her employer
  • Is there any provisions that afford the landlord from renting to felons?
  • I have lived and worked in AZ since July 2009. My Ex-wife has not lived in CA. for over 8 years. She is the custodial parent of my 2 boys, one is 19 and the other is 17. I have a child support case in CA and they just garnished my wages and when I called them to transfer my case to AZ. They told me that I couldn't and that they had to transfer it to the custoodial parent's state. Well, I think she lives in Texas, but I have no contact with her or my boys. So, what I need to know is what do I have to do to get my case transfered out of CA. So, that I can do a modify my child support amount.
  • I currently have joint custody of my children in which I have them 50% of the time. My ex-wife and I do not agree on which schools our children should attend, and our paperwork states that neither of us can make the final decision. An attorney had told me that if we have tried mediation with conciliation services (which we have tried), then the next step would be to file a motion for school determination. My question is: how do you go about doing that? I do not see forms that seem to pertain to this. Thanks!
  • What can a parent do to get child support enforced if the parent ordered to pay moves out of state?
  • Can the landlord raise late fee without informing tenant?
