QUESTIONS

  • I recently had a consumer at the store I work at give me her husbands credit card. I refused to use it since it was not her credit card. Is it legal for the wife to use the husbands credit card?
  • My son's father and his girlfriend had a domestic violence incident in his home where she broke glass, furniture, and physically assaulted him. The police came. My 5 year old son was in the home at the time. I would like to get a restraining order against her for my son. I don't want my son to be exposed to that again. She has also been harrassing me via hundreds of texts, phone calls, social media messages, etc. Do I have enough to file for a restraining order against her for my son? My concern is for my son's safety.
  • The mother of my 2 children left for 8 months and i took care of them got a restraining order but wasnt served because she was nowhere to be found...of she tries to take my kids what do i do

Do I need to submit judge's working papers or supporting documentation for the judge to review prior to my hearing and if so, what is the document called that I would attach my exhibits to?
  • Are there minimum limits for amount of time taken. My wife has a sick relative that is on her death bed. We are wanting one day for her to say goodbye. Also. What is the definition of parents. The relative in question rased my wife from 10-18
  • My landlord has not returned my security deposit. Next Monday will be 14 business days (AZ law) She is being shady and I have a feeling she has no intention of giving it back or my prorated rent for that matter. (It was a month to month lease but right after I gave my 30 days she found a new tenant so she owes me for 90% of the month as well) In her lease contract she wrote that she has 30 days to return deposit, however that goes against the state law. Will I have to wait 30 days or does State Law trump a lease contract?
  • My house in AZ was foreclosed on& was one of the homes that was part of state of AZ v B of A(national mortgage settlement). Since this foreclosure was part of the successful lawsuit for unfair practices, could I ( and how) can I have it removed from my credit report?
  • My husband and I rented out a low income apartment. Over thanksgiving weekend we arrived home to a termite tube hanging from the bathroom ceiling! After calling on friday we were told by thr front desk employee that maintenance and a "foreman" would inspect the unit on Monday. We went to check monday morning to ensure this was the case, and (once again) its as if nobody knew about this issue. We were told we would have to wait for decembers monthly pest control services. We recieved a renewal notice due by the 15th. We cant afford a new complex. what are our options..?
