Is there a world problem storing paper for recycling?
Is there a world problem storing paper for recycling?
There have been stories in the past of newspaper and other paper collected when there was no paper mill nearby to deal with them, so the paper was thrown into landfill. Let's hope this isn't happening now, and local authorities are able to plan and deal with all sorts of recycling.

How to stop garnishment from payroll ?
Question
Answer
How to stop garnishment from payroll ?
Answer
You must take a proactive approach. If you do nothing, then this garnishment will continue. In the state of Alabama, you can be garnished up to 25% of your net income from a judgment creditor. This garnishment will continue until the judgment is satisfied. There are several options for you that you can take, but again...you must take action to protect yourself. I'm happy to arrange a free consultation with you. Simply call, 205.939.0780 at your convenience. Good luck, take care.

Question
Answer
I purchased a condo. The neighbor says that the prior owner of my condo routinely flooded the front deck, thereby causing dry rot to his side of our common deck. He says I have to pay for the repairs to his side. I say that liability for property damage does not run with the land, and that his only recourse is against the prior owner who caused the damage. He should have done something about it before it was sold to me. Am I right?
Answer
Although I have not researched this particular question, and legal research is beyond the scope of what you get for free here, I am very certain that you are correct. Absent something in the CC&R's or other basis for attaching the liability to the condo, it would not run with the "land."

Question
Answer
what happens if the court/judge has not received my tickets or any info about the case at the time of my arrainment. arraignment
Answer
Nothing at first. The case must be ready for trial within 30 days (CPL 30.30) and the prosecution must take place within a year of the incident (CPL 30.10). If you had an appearance and demanded a supporting deposition and it is not served on you within 30 days, the case should be dismissed. You must make that motion to dismiss and you should have demanded the supporting deposition. the supporting deposition must be demanded within 30 days of the charge.

Question
Answer
My husband was recently jailed for enticing a minor in the state of Utah. I'm in the process of filing for divorce, but I haven't yet. We have a 2 yr. old son. Can I move home to Michigan and take my son with me. Would that be considered custodial interference or is it completely legal?
Answer
It's legal, but I would advise you to file in Utah. In order for a state to have jurisdiction over a minor child to enter a custody order, that state must be the child's "home state" as defined by the applicable statute. To be the child's home state, it must be where the child has resided for the last 6 months prior to the filing of the action. If you move to Michigan, you will have to wait for 6 months before the courts of that state can have jurisdiction. I would advise that you file the divorce action in Utah, which has jurisdiction, and then make your move to Michigan. If there are any court proceedings here, you would need to come back to be involved in them. Otherwise, if you have Utah counsel, much of what can be done can be done by him or her.

Question
Answer
The court-appointed arbitrator in my case issued a restraining order against me on his own behalf in March, without an affadavit and without allowing a hearing. Superior Court refused his request to adopt his decision as a court order, in May. Arbitrator filled out CH-100 request for Civil Harassment Restraining Order, submitted it to judge directly, then dropped it. Arbitrator is now threatening me with jail if I violate the gag order stipulation in his restraining order. I'm very concerned about the arbitrator's erratic behavior, and would like to have a stay of judgment placed upon him while I file a statement of disqualification motion. Can I file a stay of judgment request ex parte?
Answer
Your post does not make sense. How can the arbitrator enforce an order that was dropped by the courts? If the court refuses to adopt his decision, there is no order.

Question
Answer
I gave proper written notice to my landlord that I would be vacating the home on March 31st. The landlord had said in writing they would like to list the home as of April 1st. They have since changed that date to March 20th (which I learned from their real estate agent not the landlord themselves.) They are asking for me to arrange showings/inspections/ and be ready to show my home on an hour notice until I move. I have three kids and in the process of moving. Is this legal in NC? I feel this is really underhanded.
Answer
I don't think I would call it underhanded...they want to rent the home out with as little bit of a gap as possible.
You need to review your lease and see what it says and from there you can speak tot he landlord to see if you want to discuss more notice to show the home.

Question
Answer
Answer
My former employee who was solely responsible for payroll is now suing me for unpaid wages. How can she sue if she was responsible for her own hours, the addition of her own hours, and the payment of her own hours?
Answer
More facts need to be known. What is she claiming? Is she claiming that the employer refused to pay overtime, breached meal/break laws, etc.? Call an employment law attorney to discuss. Many of us offer a free initial phone consultation.
Answer
The fact that she was "solely responsible" does not mean she has received all she is due.
On the other hand, anyone with a word processor and printer (or pen an paper) can pepare a complaint and sue.
Without seeing the claim and speaking with you, it is impossible to provide advice. Indeed, you do not want advice in a public forum, since it is not confidential.
I suspect you need to meet with an employment lawyer and obtain advice as to how to proceed.
What is grassroots level planning?
What is grassroots level planning?
This refers to driving an organization's plans down to the lowest level of the organization. For example, we are planning to sell a billion burgers, as a company. At a grassroots level, the Store in Aberdeen is planning to sell 100,000 burgers. Therefore that store needs to figure out the level of staffing, number of open registers, required inventory, and other factors needed to support that level of sales.

Question
Answer
hi, my name is Mikail, I'm not citizen of USA, I apologise for my english.
I would like to establish a hedge fund LLC in Delaware and raise money online, for investing in my own start ups, so I have a few questions about that:
1. Do my investors have to enter the Memorandum of Association of the hedge fund LLC when they decide to invest in my hedge fund? or just sending money to my business bank account and filling up an online form be enough?
2. Can I use the hedge fund's money for buying shares of my own other company? ( example: I raise 100k for the hegde fund and then I use the money to buy shares of my other company LLC in Dubai, but I will be the one deciding at what price to sell the shares, ) and I'm I obliged at all to disclose my activities to my investors?
I'm not trying to act in bad faith, the reason I would like to use the scheme is to raise money for my projects in which I really believe and have more freedom to manage the money if I see some other good opportunities to invest in.
Thank you
Answer
Generally speaking,
I believe you may be confusing certain concepts. Generally speaking, a hedge fund may not be the most appropriate type of investment company that could facilitate the purchase of equity of other companies.
To further answer your question, an investment company would be able to own equity of other companies including international ones and you could manage the business of the investment company. However, you must establish the proper corporate documents to authorize the purchase the shares of startup companies and to create the management structure that would be most effective for your goals.
You msu also be aware of limitations on who you can solicit to be an investor.
Being that you are not familiar with US law I highly recommend that you retain a business attorney. Please contact me off line for help in this matter. We could set up a consultation via skype.

Question
Answer
I am currently living in a rental house in New Jersey. The main water supphas a major leak and I have the feeling that this repair is going to take weeks to fix. If I am without water for weeks what do I do and do I still pay the full amount of rent?
Answer
The total lack of water goes to the issue of habitability which, for the purposes of eviction is a matter for the judge and, for the purposes of rent default, is an issue for the finder of fact (judge or jury). So, there is always some risk to a tenant who asserts a habitability claim. Assuming that the outage is serious and lengthy, you can either stop paying rent for the period or move out either temporarily or permanently. The decision of which to do depends on your situation.
I handle matters of this type. If I can be of further help to you, call or email.

Question
Answer
When being sentenced for a violation of 18 U.S.C. 1349 is a person sentenced according to the total amount of money in the conspiracy or the amount that individual received?
Answer
Conspiracy cases, especially in the federal system, are extremely complicated. The short answer to your short question is, it depends. On a very basic level it depends on what amount that individual knew about and/or is responsible for. This really is a question that needs to be discussed with a criminal attorney that handles federal cases, and should be done in person, not on this forum.

Question
Answer
My ex separated from the military a year ago, and now claims to be working a 100% commission job that doesn't pay much. He has a daughter from his first marriage, two from our marriage, and one from his current marriage. Our 2012 Pennsylvania divorce decree states that he pays $850 in child support, but recently he claims he can't pay that amount anymore. The kids and I have lived in GA since 2011, and he's remarried living in MD. He has been sending $200 a month, and refuses to send anything extra and it's causing a serious hardship on me and the kids. I'm a full-time student and not working myself. I have three semesters left and without the full amount of child support helping to pay for daycare and other necessities the kids need, I feel I may have to drop out of school and take some low-paying job just to try to make ends meet, vice working in the medical field to secure a better financial future for my family as I'd hoped. I'm also afraid that if I open a child support case with GA for child support services, he will lie about his pay, and the kids will receive a lot less than what we agreed on. The child support in our divorce decree was what we mutually agreed on, not what a judge ordered. I don't have money for a lawyer, so I feel like my kids are going to get the short end of the stick if I try to handle this alone. Will child support services recalculate the child support amount stated in our divorce decree immediately, or after three years? Will he be able to request a modification immediately? With us living in separate states, and the divorce decree finalized in another, will GA courts take jurisdiction since the kids live here? This is so frustrating and hurtful because he doesn't ask about the kids, send anything extra on birthdays or during the holidays, nor has he made any effort to see them since we separated in 2010 - it's like they don't even exist to him, and now he doesn't want to financially support them as agreed.
I don't know what to do.
Answer
You have a jurisdictional issue. Neither of you reside in the issuing state. You need to have the order domesticated in Maryland for purposes of enforcement. I suggest you start by contacting child support enforcement in Pennsylvania and request the order be transferred to Maryland for enforcement.

Question
Answer
Answer
The Board warned they would tow my car from my parking space because expired tag in Fl? I thought if in private property and not on the by laws or property documents they would not bother me?
Answer
It depends on your Declaration of Covenants/Condominium, whether the board was given authority to create board-enacted rules on this subject, and whether the board followed the statute regarding towing (notices). Your question as it is cannot be answered without more information.
Answer
As stated above, your understanding of the law is not completely accurate. they may have followed the appropriate procedure and the fact that it is private property does not protect you.

How might the principles of TQM be applied to a personnel function?
How might the principles of TQM be applied to a personnel function?
TQM (Total Quality Management)whilst comparatively easy in the production environment offers some challenges in Personnel Management. However, It IS possible to transfer the standards across.
To gain an insight look at the actual process itself and it will become clear
Firstly - Identify the start of the QUALITY CYCLE and then the steps within that cycle that will brig you back to the start. This because with quality its about CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT therefore you keep on working toward the highest standards
The Cycle
Customer Focused (Personnel management IS this)
Employee involvement (Personnel should have this as its the reason for being)
Process Centered (The MUST be clear, recorded and distributed processes in Personnel management so that everyone knows whats is to be done in what order to achieve the end result)
Integrated system (Are systems in place, are these systems interlinked?)
Strategic and systematic approach (all good systems should work toward the companies goals and have a logic/systematic way of doing it)
Fact based Decision making (Speaks for itself - In such a department decisions without facts can and do cause significant industrial issues - Personnel are not always liked by either management OR staff as they have to be unbiased and work toward the correct and realistic outcomes).
Communication (Why we do xyz how we do xyz and how you can have input on xyz -Vital both in the department operation and in the measure of how close to Good quality or not they are)
Continual Improvement (last of the cycle - even a strength can be improved upon if the company wants to do that - Continual improvement is about being honest in regard to the department strengths and weaknesses, Identify the weakness - record it and set actions that can improve it - set the improvement target realistically and once there look at the start of this cycle again....)

From what I've heard, it's called Your Turn To Win and it has to do with winning at life by using his multiple step program to identiy areas in your life that you have overlooked or ignored so that you can achieve your dreams. I hear that it's not like any other self improvement plan out there.
Heft got where he is today the hard way and I like that. He also did a cool thing for breast cancer research in honor of one of his teachers. All I know is that I need something because I've managed to make a mess out of my career and relationships.
It's about time we recognize outstanding teachers. Wish I had done something for my favorite teacher when I had the chance.
Lance is a business man (self made)from Pa.I watched him speak once at a gathering in Philadelphia.He does quite a bit of philanthropic work. He recently donated a large sum of $ in honor of one of his teachers who is a breast cancer survivor.From what I understand, his book should be available in mid Jan on the web to the public.When I saw him speak, I thought,"He really gets it"He gave us a copy of the book at the seminar. The book is called "Your Turn to Win" and is about setting yourself up for success. Not just financial, but LIFE success. This book has ZERO hype and ZERO Bull. ZERO.Real tools with real examples and real techniques to teach you how to win. No kidding.He spoke about self defeating pattern recognition and goal setting as well as finding your true passions and actually making them come to life.I will tell you, what he says is true, and if you follow the plan, your life will change.Mine did.

Answer
Would I get jail time for second shoplifting charge? I got caught the first time in North Carolina back in 2009 and I got caught the second time in Georgia on Wednesday 1st, 2014 at Walmart 53 dollars worth of items stolen but I gave them back but they sent me to jail that day because I did not have my ID on me but I was bonded out that following Friday and now my court date is in March and I am scared that I might go back to jail. My husband, my father and The FBI are telling me that I will not get anymore jail time but I am unsure. I realize what I done was a crime and I feel bad for it and I want to change and do better for myself.
Answer
If the FBI is talking to you about a case, you are probably about to be charged with some far more serious crime, as the FBI does not - ever - deal with shoplifting. You are charged with a crime for which you can possibly go to jail for a year and be fined $1000, and the charge on your criminal history can make you virtually unemployable for life. If you are smart you will get a lawyer to discuss pleas, possible trial and things like pretrial diversion, and will stop talking to the FBI without a lawyer. That last thing is a guaranteed road to prison.
Answer
Who in the FBI is telling you not to worry, as opposed to retain an attorney. See website for info on retaining the right attorney: http://www.lawrencelewispc.com/pages.php?go=pinfo&PID=38

Answer
If i485 cancelled ,How long can I stay in USA?
I married a girl a few months ago.We submitted the I485. But then find she takes drug. I can not tolerate this stuff...I want to divorce her and cancel the I485 petition.
I heard that it may take a few months to get the divorce done（absent divorce ) .
My previous visa was already expired. I have a EAD card now.
My question : 1 once the I485 is cancelled , can I still stay in USA ?Cause I need to wait for the divorce decree .
2 how to cancel the I485 /I 130 application? can I cancelled it by myself?
3 Shall I tell the USCIS that I want to postpone the interview cause I may going to divorce her?
Hope someone can help me on these questions.
Thank you
Answer
Once the I-130 petitoin is withdrawn (by the Petitioner), or the I-485 is withdrawn (by the Beneficiary), or the I-485 is denied (by USCIS), the adjustment of status applicant loses legal status & therefore starts accruing unlawful presence.
It is thus advisable to leave the United States if any of those circumstances apply.

If you are Canadian or Mexican, you can consider a TN. If you are Australian, you can consider an E-3. Depending on what country you are from, and if you have money to invest in a U.S. business, then E-2 might be an option. There is always going for a graduate degree or marrying a U.S. citizen.
I was arrested over 24 years ago will that be in my workmans comp deposition?
Question
Answer
I was arrested over 24 years ago will that be in my workmans comp deposition?
Answer
A typical question is 'have you ever been CONVICTED of a felony?"
Defense attorneys almost never ask if you've been arrested. They only can use CONVICTIONS against you.
However, the defense attorney DOES have the right to ask if there were any arrests at any time in the past, because the answer COULD lead to something relevant to your current claim, including possible physical altercations and treatment following that arrest.
The attorney's questions need not produce relevant information, just LEAD TO relevant information.
MORE IMPORTANT: IF YOU ARE asking this question here instead of your attorney, you have an ineffective attorney and shouldn't go forward with a deposition with an attorney who has not personally prepared you for a deposition.

Question
Answer
My grandfather gave me his home while he was alive, have lived here for 3 years, but i didn't sign any legal documents or get a deed. Now my family wants me and my children to move out, after my twin girls graduate from high school. They want the property, say they want to fix up the property and house. What legal rights do I have as a family member, I never had to pay rent or a mortgage and presently we have no where to go, I'm disabled, on a limited income with poor credit. What rights to I have, i have spent major dollars on this old house on upkeep. It's just not fair!!!
Answer
Based on your post, you get to move. You cannot be given a home unless you were given a deed. Since you didn't get one, you never owned the home. The only right you have as a tenant at will is to be given 60 days notice to move.

in order to get a permit to fix and occupy residence in the town of tewksbury ma agree said dwelling hereby agree to the restrictions set forth in said by laws containing a second dwelling unit must be owner occupied restricting shall be binding on its grantees heirs devises executor admin. assign and successors in interest said restrictions shall be covenants and conditions that run with the land. if i buy would this apply to me this was done in 1985 and notice it was mentioned in 2004 when owner tried to add on registry of deeds mass
Answer
I would have to read the restriction in its entirety and determine if the restriction is consistent with the statutory requirements, but generally speaking if this is a condition of the addition and it is in the properties chain of title it would apply to you.
You could seek a modification from the town to allow you to simply operate the property as a two family. I suggest you retain legal counsel to review title and to answer your questions with respect to the permitted use of the property.

Question
Answer
How long will a mediation agreement stay in effect if unfiled? My ex-wife filed for changes to our decree and we went through mediation. However, those documents have never been filed to the courts even though the agreement states her attorney is to do so. Can I have that agreement nullified after a year of waiting?
Answer
It appears the judge is unaware that you went to mediation. I would go to your local courthouse & file a copy of the mediated settlement agreement with the court.
Even though her attorney was to file it, it seems that for some reason he has not gotten around to it.
Therefore, to protect yourself, file it yourself.
You also need to take the MSA and have an order written up so the judge can sign it. Then the MSA is enforceable by the judge. Without doing all of this, you have nothing that you can enforce by contempt.
I hope this answer is helpful.
If you need a local attorney, look on this website and on www.avvo.com for help.
Good luck!

Question
Answer
My son's father has never seen the child nor attempted to try to see him. As it turns out he was sleeping with another woman who knew about me & the baby during the majority of my pregnancy. I left him when I was 7 months pregnant while he sat by & watched me 7month pregnant with his little boy lift & carry heavy things out of the home. His new girlfriend knowingly participated in this relationship thus, I feel that says a lot about her character and what she may teach my son. I was told in North Carolina that I have to file for custody even though I am the only one on the birth certificate. So I hired an attorney. My ex showed up in the court & ask for a continuance he got one for 30 days to retain counsel so now two days before the hearing he has JUST retained counsel and is going to be granted 30 more days. In this custody agreement, is there a way to keep the woman who I do not know away and assure that my sons time is just between him & his dad? Also, he hit me when I was 6months pregnant & a bystander called the police, his home is unfit (no heat, air, urine stains feces stains in floor, soot on walls from karosene heater, unstable stairs to basement, septic tank backing up, plumbing problems, basement floods and there is mold and rats, house is also infested with bugs) please can someone give me my options. My attorney does not seem to concerned and at times he seems to almost be looking after the fathers interest & not mine & my sons. We live two hours apart now and I feel that all the father will do is bad mouth me and put my son into questionable situations. What is the minimum visitation that can be granted and still receive support?
Answer
"My attorney does not seem to concerned and at times he seems to almost be looking after the fathers interest & not mine & my sons." That statement alone says almost everything about your case. Don't be too hard on your attorney, I suspect you would have this opinion of any attorney you hire. We do our best to be sympathetic but we hear the scenario you are complaining about A LOT and in the extremely vast majority of cases, the complaints are baseless, exaggerated at best, if not out right untrue and often simply due to bitterness. Because the father has not been in the child's life, your concerns about how things will turn out are all based on speculation. You should consider giving the visitation a good faith try and wait until there is a demonstrated reason to cry foul before attempting to limit visitation. To answer your question though, the minimum visitation that could be granted and you still receive child support is no visitation. I am curious as to why you are concerned about child support? If the house conditions are as you say they are - he has no money anyway!

Can I prepare another trust and disregard the one my husband signedafter his death?
Question
Answer
Answer
Can I prepare another trust and disregard the one my husband signed
after his death?
Answer
That was amazing that your husband was able to sign a declaration of trust after he died.
Answer
Assuming you meant something different than your question literally asks, I'd say that it really depends upon (1) the terms of your husband's trust, including whether it was a joint trust with you; (2) whether you are now the trustee of that trust or not; (3) whether the trust property is now yours; and (4) what assets you intend to place into the new trust you are considering. All in all, I'd say that you need to retain an attorney for two areas of consultation: (a) proper administration of your deceased husband's estate, including the trust (and especially if you are the successor trustee); and (b) preparing the proposed new trust, including selection of the assets to be placed in the new trust (making sure you now have the power to deal with those assets as your own, etc.). This is not a situation where you can use stationery-store forms to do it yourself.

Question
Answer
Answer
we recently sold our house it was a life estate for my autistic uncle.the escrow company
.had him sign off on it.is this legal?my mom is his guardian he can't sign anything
Answer
If I understand your scenario, you and your family decided that your uncle with autism will lose the life estate in the house, and will be kicked out onto the street without a place to live? It sounds like someone made an unwise decision.
Answer
It sounds like a crooked escrow company to me. While a life tenant can sell their interest, their interest is only a life estate, and the person they sold it to would only own the life estate portion during the life of the original life tenant. If your uncle dies tomorrow, the property reverts back to the grantor, or his heirs, or whoever was specified for the remainder.
The fact that your uncle is autistic and has a guardian raises issues of elder abuse if he is not legally capable of consenting to such a transfer.

Question
Answer
I have a 35 year land lease that commenced in 1995 and should terminate in 2030. In 1995 it started with a$2,600 monthly payment plus $1,200 property tax payment. The lease has a cost of living clause. Up to this date, 2014, I have been current in tax payment. However, with the verbal consent of Landlord, I made the following lease payments; 1995 $31,200 per year; 1996 to 2007 at $24,000 per year; 2008 to 2010 31,200; from 2010 to this date with the verbal consent of landlord I paid property tax payments only.
Today, the Landlord has made a substantial bill of $250,000 , adding the cost of living from 1995 up to now and intends to terminate the lease unless I pay the said amount. Not once is the last 19 years Landlord has demanded verbally or in writing about cost of living increase or the shortage in rent payments that Landlord had verbally agreed to.
Do I have any legal rights to fight back? Landlord wants to sell the property and get rid of me. He is willing to forego his $250k demand if I agree to the lease termination. I do not want to terminate and I do not want to pay the $250 K. Do I have any rights?
Answer
It is difficult to answer that question without seeing the terms of the lease. We could take a look at it and give you an opinion on what your rights might be.

Question
Answer
My husband and I have been married less than 1 year, we have a 9 month old daughter, whom has special medical needs. I (the mother) am from Texas, my family and support system is there. My husband and his family are from Indiana, where we are currently residing. My husband has supported the family (my daughter and I) on his income, he is a self employed insurance agent. I just started working at a day care part time one month ago. We are talking about separating then divorcing, and I would like to go back to Texas with my daughter. I am also a breast feeding mother and practice attachment parenting. I would just like to know what rights my husband is entitled to and what I am entitled to, and if I am allowed to leave with my daughter to go back to my home and family, or if I am required to stay in the state of Indiana due to my husband (the father) living here.
Thank you!

Answer
You need to sit down with an attorney and talk. Your case raises so many issues that can simply not be dealt with by a simple answer in a forum like this. It is possible that you my be prevented from changing your daughter's residence to Texas, so this is important enough to discuss with a family law attorney in your community.

The Way I Look At This Literature is a form of art and business is just that, business. The main purpose of good writers (and by that I mean true geniuses who have contributed essential things to the world and their peers everywhere) was not to sell (that is often a slow process and makes only a few writers rich, not necessarily the best; marketing strategies and fashions are very strange, you sure know that) but good writers often want to tell a story and or spread some thoughts, feelings or ideas.Of course, there are many decent editors, printers and book publishers all over the world who strive to give us good books while at the same time make some profit out of that, which enables some writers to become professional and try and make a living out of their own talents and efforts. And some printing and publishing firms make a lot of money, that is for sure.Charles Dickens, for instance, was tremendously popular in his lifetime and so was Dame Agatha Christie. These days, we hear that Ms. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, is doing very well financially speaking. I am very happy for them all. Those, however, are rare instances. Historically, most writers have been iggied by their contemporaries to the point that they needed another job to avoid starving (many great writers actually DID starve or almost.)

Hi. I sell leads for businessses and received an order worth $1,256.00. The president of the company's assistant emailed me to put in the order and the president was cc'd on all coorespondences between us. I laid out the pricing, it was agreed upon, and I delivered the order to a tee. A few days later, I submitted an invoice and was told , even though the leads were great, they are choosing not to pay. The general attitude was "I'm a lawyer so what are you going to do about it". He said his assistant had no authority to make that order even though he knew all about it. And the leads are sent and can't be returned. This was obviously a way to get free leads and it's a lot of money to me. I am in California and they are in Delaware. Do I have any legal recourse? Thank you.
Answer
You can sue in small claims court for breach of contract. Hopefully, you had them sign a well written contract.
Answer
You can sure in the small claims but only in the state where the defendant resides. In California small claims courts there is no jurisdiction over non California residents. If you want to sue in California you have to file it in the superior Court.
Answer
He was on all correspondence so he should not be able to say she was not authorized. Your option us to sue but unless you can show the company has minimum contacts with California, you may have to sue in Delaware. If you know he is a licensed attorney you can file a bar complaint. Unethical actions in a non legal setting may still cause for sanctions

Answer
It sounds as though the answer in your situation should be no. You have presented a scenario where there is no "meeting of the minds." In other words, you have two separate agreements - the buyer's agreement and your agreement, but the two do not match. In legal terms, you do not have a contract.
Answer
I agree. The duty to give a deposit and the right to receive and retain one arises out of the contract. Where the parties fail to agree upon the essential deal terms, there is no contract and no right to retain a deposit.

Question
Answer
Answer
In a divorce in Texas, how is my 401k corporate matching vesting factored into the marital assets? Background Info: I had a 401k prior to marriage. The company matching portion had a vesting schedule. Some had vest prior to marriage with the remainder vesting after marriage. How do I calculate the separate vs marital assets of this 401k?
Answer
If you are reaching an agreement with your spouse then you can do pretty much whatever you want so long as the QDRO language dividing the 401k meets the plan requirements. Drafting a decree that allows you to in turn draft a DRO that can be qualified as a QDRO may be another issue.
Typically vesting does not affect the right of the spouse to collect that share of the 401k. There are ways of undervaluing unvested portions of the account but it is not the law in Texas that unvested benefits must be undervalued in comparison to vested benefits. There is no specific answer to your question. It is up to you, or your lawyer, to advocate the position that best protects your rights.
Answer
The contributions and income in the plan prior to marriage are separate property. If the contribution to the plan was made after marriage the community property presumption applies.
To rebut this presumption you need to show when the vested contributions were made
Unless you had unvested matching contributions when you divorced, vesting does not matter. Since you lose unvested matching contributions if you quit, unvested contributions are not your property and can't be separate or community. However vested contributions are your property and can be characterized as separate or community
You should probably have the plan administrator help you with this.
If you don't have a divorce attorney you need to consult one.

my brother in law and I are partners in a real estate business. Part of his job was taking care of the accounting and he hasn't done it. I requested him to handle it to me and he refuses. He said I can see the records and bookkeeping but he is not handling it to me . Is this legal that he resist to do it?
Answer
If you are both general partners, then each has a right to examine the books at all reasonable times and the partner keeping the books has no right to prevent any other general partner from examining the books at all reasonable hours.

Answer
I recently completed a 1410 sentence. Since, I have applied at numerous places for employment to no avail.. I was told this would come off my record once completed.. My question is, is it possible to have the arrest record vacated? Because it seems all employers sees is the arrest record not the stipulation.. Thank you
Answer
call me at 312-372-5600 to discuss. you cannot have it vacated, but you can file for either expungment or sealing, depending on your record. and nothing happens automatically. you have to file a petition or motion with the court.

Question
Answer
I am interested in starting my own company that provides a service to technology companies to help them reach customers to renew their support contract. I currently work at a large technology company and currently reach out to our current customers to renew their support contracts. What I want to know is, if this would be a conflict of interest?
Answer
This is a tricky area. I'm not sure you have any conflict of interest issues unless you serve in a fiduciary capacity or there are some other corporate definitions of which I am unaware. Rather, you may have other issues regarding ownership of the intellectual property, non-circumvention agreements, or other agreements that you may have signed preceding or during your employment. To me, that would be the bigger issue.
It may not hurt to speak to an attorney.

Question
Answer
Houston texas
i had a child out of marriage i dont want the child to have my last name he know is 13 yrs old and the mother is pushing him to ask me to change his last name because i had another child and used my last name . can they change it without my consent
Answer
You can ask that the child's name not be changed.
But you need to be aware that a 18, the child will be an adult and he can file a legal document at the courthouse to change his last name. You will NOT be notified since it no longer involves you since he is now an adult. You will have no input into his name change if he chooses to change his name after he becomes an adult.
I hope that answers your question.

Question
Answer
Answer
Two kids(17yrs) get into a school security golf cart, hits a teachers car and parents finds out that the security guard leaves it running with keys inside, no where to be found and have allowed them to drive it previously.
What should occur in this case?
Answer
What "case?" The kids or parents pay for the damage. The security guard probably faces some punishment from his employer.
Answer
The two 17 year olds probably get arrested and may go to jail. The parents or the kids pay the damages. The guard probably gets fired. And the two 17 year olds should already have hired lawyers; they will be tried as adults.

Question
Answer
Answer
In a lease option to buy, can the owner of the property refinance during the term of the agreement and take money out of the property without the knowledge of the tenant?
Answer
I'd be inclined to think the owner may do so, unless the option prohibits such transactions, or (possibly) unless the effect of the refinancing is to impair the owner's ability to perform. A cash-out refinancing would normally be harmless and not impair the optionee's rights. However, if a comparison of the market value, the option strike price, the debt secured by the property, and the depth of the owner's pockets together indicated a significant impairment of the optionee's rights, i.e., that the owner/optioner might be unable to perform by delivering clear title upon an exercise of the option, the optionee may have a good case against the owner/optioner. I was not able to locate any California case on point, but the principles seem sound.
Answer
Read your written contract, it determines the answer to all such questions. It is HIS property until you exercise the option. If refinance or encumbrance is prohibited, then you may have a claim Besides that, how would his refinance affect your purchase unless your purchase option price is less than the total of mortgages and liens??

Question
Answer
My daughter turned 18 a few months ago at which time I stopped paying child support. Before turning 18, I paid half of her medical bills that were not covered by my ex wife's insurance. She is now asking me to pay half of a medical bill even though my daughter has turned 18. Am I legally obligated to do this?
Answer
It depends completely on your child support award and without seeing it we can't answer. Not all child support orders terminate automatically at 18...some will carry on for longer due to school enrollment or other reasons. Consult with a family law attorney

Question
Answer
Edit
I am so unsatisfied with my current attorney, I was in an auto accident on 11/2013.... I was hit by a big rig on the 60 fwy the trucker was at 100% liable. My car was totaled equally at 12,000.00 my dr. bills were 4000.00 on top of my pain and suffering have to deal insurance co. and having to get some of my own bills because my lawyer was not capable. Not sure why!! The worst of it is how panicked I now am driving with big rigs on the road!!! I was told today that my attorney finally did the first demand and I was told he would only be asking for $35,000.00 but I would not get anywhere close to that!!!! But ofcoarse would be taking his 33%.......I have only spoke to this man once on the phone and I have left numerous msgs for him!!!! Im completely disgusted in him!!
Answer
Then you are likely to be unhappy with any attorney telling you the truth. I would be extremely surprised to be able to get a $35k recovery for a client with only $4k in medical specials. That attorney would have to be remarkably lucky to do so. Your car value is separate from your injury claim, and it probably was already settled and paid, leaving you trying to settle your injury and damages claim.
Now that you have been educated a little bit, if you are still unhappy with your attorney, and are willing to discuss and accept the reality of the actual reasonable settlement value of your case, feel free to contact me to discuss substituting into your case. please remember that your current attorney will have a 'lien' on your case for his fees, so you must expect a new attorney to require you to agree to a fee Retainer Agreement that provides the new attorney a full measure of fees for his efforts, in addition to whatever will have to be paid to the old attorney.

Question
Answer
I'm renting a room month to month and I pay my rent every month on the first. I also paid a 100 dollar deposit before Moved in. I'm deciding to move out on the 9th of September 2014. Am I entitled to the rest of the money I paid for this month as well as my deposit if the room is in the same condition it was when I moved in. Can someone help me. I feel like these guys may try to screw me out of my money
Answer
Since your agreement was for month-to-month, you owe them for the entire month, unless the unit was uninhabitable and as a result of that you are forced to move out. You are entitled to your deposit refund within 21 days unless landlord has reason to withhold (i.e. cleaning fee and/or damage to property).

Question
Answer
I live with the father of my two small children and i want to leave him because he drinks way to much and he is verbally abusive to me. He says that if I leave with the kids it will be considered kidnapping because you can't take kids out of an established home. We are not married and have lived here less than a year. In fact, for the past 6 years we have not lived anywhere for more than a year. I want to leave and I don't want to leave the kids with him, but I don't know if I can be charged with kidnapping if i leave with the kids. Since he is careful not to say anything in front of either of our family members and we don't have very many friends, i don't think that I can prove that he is verbaly abusive. Even though we are not married he is on both of the children's birth certificates. Can I leave with both of my children and not get charged with kidnapping?

Answer
In an Unlimited Civil case, can Defendant's attorney of record make a special appearance for an in pro per plaintiff, of the same case, if Plaintiff is unable to appear?
Answer
Absolutely not, but the attorney can represent what the Plaintiff told him and any agreement they made on appearance.
Answer
That sounds inappropriate. That would mean one attorney is handling both side of the litigation, which is a clear cut conflict of interest. I've only seen such an unethical thing happened once, and the attorney who did was made a city attorney.

Question
Answer
My younger sister and her boyfriend are expecting a baby they have both discussed and agreed that they are not ready and asked me to take the baby can I just have them sign a guardianship form and take the baby home from the hospital??
Answer
You don't want guardianship -- you want to be the child's conservator. Guardianship is probate and conservatorship is family.
The parents can sign a form that gives you the right to take the child to the doctor, etc.
But I suspect that you want a court to grant you legal custody. If so, you will need an attorney to do the paperwork and to either have the parents sign waivers or they will need to be served.

Do I need a will even when I have beneficiaries for all my bank accounts?
Question
Answer
Do I need a will even when I have beneficiaries for all my bank accounts?
Answer
This is not an intellectual property question. Intellectual property deals with property of the mind: patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade dress, licenses, franchises, that sort of stuff.
That said, your bank accounts are presumably not your only assets. You need a Will to distribute ALL of your personal property as you want it distributed, not as it would be distributed under the laws of intestate succession (distribution in the absence of a Will).

Question
Answer
Answer
Answer
Years ago I was trustee for my mother's trust. Our attorney drew up a quitclaim deed, he thought would correct bad language in a grant deed that I had sign when distributing the timber property to my six siblings that we own equality together. I signed and notarized this new deed and mailed it on to the next sibling. Four of us signed and notarized it. The fifth sibling refused to sign or return it. It turns out it too was done wrong and should have never been signed. How do you get this deed from her and how do you void a legal document of this kind?
Answer
Preferably by ripping it up. As long as it is never recorded it cannot do any harm.
Answer
Suggest you seek the services of a good real estate lawyer to prepare the necessary documents to clear title; which may include a court motion based upon the trust and you as trustee; to obtain an order compelling all interested parties to come into court to sign off or agree to allow you to issue a new deed and recording the same. Better to clear this matter now then in the future, when a sale of the property may be desired, or compelled by one of the persons via a petition to partition action; clear title will be required by a buyer, via a title company if a sale is agreed to or court ordered.
Answer
Your remedy depends on what the defect in the deed is, and whether or not it was recorded.

Question
Answer
How many individuals are allowed to live in a one-bedroom coop in NYC? Our building by-laws are from 1926 and have never been amended. It says a companion is allowed, but they have let two individuals with a child.
Answer
The relationship between the coop and the tenant is, legally, a lease. In New York, a lease to a person is construed to allow residence by the named tenant, his or her immediate family, and one more person. The only way around this is if the apartment does not contain 100 square feet per person.
So sorry to ruin your day but the coop corp is obeying the law.
No, not sorry at all, you vernicious knid. :-)

Question
Answer
I received a detailed itemized bill encompassing the 19 month process from my divorce attorney, a full 7 months after my divorced was finalized. It was for $5000. I was shocked to say the least. I did not receive any sort of up to date bill from him during the process, I had even given him a $1500 retainer at the beginning of the divorce. Is the presentation of the bill this late normal and/or ethical?
Answer
It is. The $5,000 bill does not shock me for a divorce. Depending on the property and issues involved it could have been a lot higher. You had to know the lawyer was running a bill for everything that went on in the divorce. Most people don't want to ask for a bill along the way figuring no news is good news. Most lawyers don't like intermittent billings; they take too much time to put together and then the clients are upset. Most clients make the mistake of calling the lawyer rather than obtaining counseling; lawyers are not there for therapy but most clients use their lawyer as a sounding board/counselor. So many times when the bill gets run up it is the client's fault. Now I have no idea what issues were involved in your case or how much fighting went on. Without more information I am unable to comment on the amount as being reasonable, but it would not shock me to find out the lawyer has cut their bill.

Question
Answer
My 2 year old child is considered medically fragile. With all of his many diagnoses, we are unable to find someone to care for his needs while my husband and I work during the day. In our state, PA, there are medical day cares available to provide the type of services our child needs, so that we can continue to work. Our child's insurance, a medicaid provider has denied his claim for the service. We have already appealed once, and had our appeal denied. Knowing that this service would be the best for him, based on his many disabilities, we have decided maybe it's time to pursue legal action. My question is, what type of lawyer would be best equipped to handle our case? We are not looking for monetary compensation, just to get the services our son desperately needs. We need someone to represent our child's interest, and hopefully to do it pro-bono, since we have no money whatsoever. Any legal advice would be greatly appreciated.
Answer
Start with your county bar association, county community legal aid program, and/or one of the larger firms in you county to see if they offer any pro-bono service for this tyoe of claim. Also check with your state senator and state representative for assistance and referrals. Good luck to you.

Question
Answer
I am in the process of having my Divorce Decree amended to have a Standard visitation clause put into place in the State of Texas. The case was moved from one county to another, where I presently live. During the transfer my ex filed a Notice of Foreign Judgement on the original divorce decree in the state of Florida. A FL lawyer told me that that meant nothing but that the original decree was enforceable in Florida and that is it and nothing had to be done on my side. Now I re-filed the amendment papers in Texas and my ex's lawyer is saying that the Notice of FOreign Judgement automatically transferred the case to Florida. Is this true?
Answer
This is sort of a messy issue but yes, the original court in FL has jurisdiction over modification of the child issues. You can have the case transferred to TX if that is where the children live and proceed with the modification from there if you can prevail on the jurisdictional issue. If the children primarily live with the other parent then it's doubtful you will prevail on transferring jurisdiction.
I am not sure I agree that Texas courts will "automatically" ship the case off to Florida but your ex certainly could request it and the Texas court could deny jurisdiction over the modification on its own accord.

Question
Answer
If I am a salaried employee rather than hourly, is my employer required to pay me overtime??
Answer
Whether you are salaried or hourly, you may be entitled to I vertices under the law. The key to determining your eligibility is what your actual day to day duties are. Depending on your duties you may or may not fall under one of the exemptions to overtime.

Question
Answer
I currently live in Oregon and have my kids in my physical custody and have for two months. I have been served by my Ex who lives in Oklahoma divorce papers and a summons. In the decree she is asking for sole custody and trying to give me summer visitation, with no order from the court for custody, they are set to leave back to Oklahoma in less then a week. Do I have to return them? my fear is that if I do return them I will fumble my chances to have custody of them.
Answer
The answer to your question has a lot of complexity to it. I recommend meeting with a family law attorney as soon as possible (before returning the kids) to discuss your options. He/she will need a lot more detail about your situation in order to provide reasonable alternatives for your consideration.

Question
Answer
My wife and I are both in our 70's.
Our sources of income are social security and a small Retirement fund from Tiaa Cref.
We own a 2 bedroom condo with a $120,000 mortgage. These are the only 2 assets we have.
We have resided in Florida since 2009.
We have a fee dispute for over $150,000 with our lawyer.
The situation with our lawyer happened prior to 2009 in Pennsylvania.
If the lawyer sues us for his fees what is the exposure to our condo, and the retirement fund?
Answer
The assets you describe are exempt from forced collection such as garnishment, Additionally, if the attorney obtains a judgment against you, the judgment amount could be placed as lien on your condo. That would actually mean very little to you if you never plan to sell the condo.
Where can I find "bill of rights" as a beneficiary to and Estate?.... and how difficult is it to remove someone from the Power of Attorney?
Question
Answer
Where can I find "bill of rights" as a beneficiary to and Estate?.... and how difficult is it to remove someone from the Power of Attorney?
Answer
Your question isn't clear. There is no formal "bill of rights" for estate beneficiaries although after the Testator dies beneficiaries may have certain rights like notice afforded by law. You can view the Estates & Trusts article of the Maryland Annotated Code for more details.
A competent individual who makes a power of attorney can change it at any time they want so long as they are still competent. Once the principal becomes incapacitated they no longer have the ability to change this and others cannot "remove" the Agent unless there is a clear breach of fiduciary duties. It is rather difficult, expensive and time consuming to undertake such litigation.
Note that an estate/will doesn't come into play until someone dies while power of attorney is only good while the principal is living and stops once they die.

Question
Answer
Can my siblings & I sue our stepmother's estate?
Our father passed away in 1990 & filed suit for
Mesothelioma prior to his death. Stepmom took
Most of the money from the settlement by
Relocating to Texas & over-rode his will. (Orig.
Suit was filed in New Mexico)
She was married to him less than a year before
He passed.
We were cheated out of his wish to leave his
Mother & children much at all. (125,000.00)
shared 5 ways-she got 300,000.00 plus property
in the settlement.
Is there any recourse on our part to get justice?
Thank you for your kind attention & consideration.
Answer
Your father died in 1990. Its now 2014. Chances are that any statute of limitations has long since expired.
What are your reasons for doing nothing for 24 years? Anybody can sue any body else at any time for anything. The question is not whether you can sue but whether you can prevail. The answer to that is "it depends." You not only have to overcome the time issue but you claim you were "cheated" and that ee-vill stepmother "overrode" your father's will. However, you offer no facts to support these allegations and the question of whether she did or did not will require examination of the will as well as the law of the state where your father lived at the time of his death.
A will can be "overridden" in certain circumstances. One of those can occur where a person makes a will and then marries and does not make a new will. In such case, the law sometimes allows the spouse who was left out to get a piece of the estate. Is that what happened here or was there something else?
Proceeds from a negligence suit would be part of the estate or it could pass outside of probate to the heirs but again, it depends on how any will was written and the law of the state where your father lived at the time of his death.
I don't understand why you are directing your question to GA attorneys unless GA is where your father lived at the time of his death. While the negligence suit for mesothelioma was in NM, you do not indicate the relevant details. Was it in NM because that is where your father lived at the time of his death? If so, NM is a community property state and they have very different rules for inheritance. You would have to talk to a NM attorney in that case. If your father lived elsewhere, then the fact that a lawsuit was in NM is irrelevant as the proceeds from the lawsuit would have been paid to your father's estate or heirs.
Your biggest issue is that you claim all this wrongdoing but fail to explain why nothing was done for 24 years. Its not me being rude and asking - any lawyer is going to want to know and you can believe that if a lawsuit was filed the other side would be raising statute of limitations issues. There is no such thing in the courts as justice. Justice is what you make of it given what you have. There is an old maxim in the law that "equity aids the vigilant, not those who slumber on their rights." The fact is that from all appearances, it looks like nothing was done for 24 years. If you were minors, then your mother should have asserted rights as guardian on behalf of the children or depending on your age and the law this should have been done as soon as you turned 18 if your mother was unable or unwilling to do anything to protect your rights. If the answer is you just did not know then you were under a duty to find out if no one stopped you from getting a lawyer.
If you are really curious, then you will get a copy of the estate file as well as any relevant documents from the negligence action indicating how much was paid in settlement and to whom and sit down with a probate lawyer who practices in the county/state where your father's estate was pending at the time of death and pay the lawyer to review everything and find out where the money went. After such review, the lawyer can then advise whether anything can be done at this time or not.
However, who exactly are you planning on suing? The step-mother? Is she still alive? Your next hurdle after the timing would be to see if she engaged in any particular wrongdoing that would justify the imposition of relief.
What is meant by the term Lip Service?
What is meant by the term Lip Service?
The term lip service refers to the act of gossiping.
The older meaning of "lip service" or to "pay lip service" means to say or pretend to follow actions that a person or persons wishes, but the speaker does not mean.
For example a person may pay lip service to an organization (government/church/book club/etc) but not actually follow what that organization stands for or requires of people as part of that organization.

Question
Answer
DCSS closed my child's support case when her stepfather adopted her in 2012 Over 20,000 is still owed in arrears child support up to the adoption order. Since I did not waive my child's right to arrears support and DCSS closed the case, how do I collect it? I have information that he divorced his wife and quit his job so he would not have to pay arrears support and after the adoption, remarried the same woman and today they have a thriving business together. Thank you.
Answer
File a motion with the court to determine the amount of the arrears. Bring evidence of non payment to court. After you obtain a court judgment as to the amount of the arrears, you can obtain a writ of attachment and have it served on his business or bank account. Go to the library and check out a book on debt collection.

Mr. Smith's lawyer has informed us that he has pled guilty to possession of an automatic weapon. I understand that this is against the law. I would ask that you please consider putting Ron on probation. He is not a criminal. He has always worked really hard throughout his life to help his friends and family. I believe that he will not violate the law again and that he has learned from this.

Okay, sorry, it's not so good.Write your own letter. Speak from your heart.Those who have been convicted are going to serve time or some sort; be that on probation, house arrest, modified sentencing, jail, or prison is entirely up to the judge. Too many glowing recommendations have a tendency--as I've observed--to push judges toward harsher sentencings.

And, then the guilty party gets made an example of.Do not tell the judge "He is not a criminal."

Do you see the contradiction? Besides, you don't know that. Do you want to be held responsible if he does break the law again.Do be supportive. Express what you hope to accomplish, how you hope to help the person. Let the judge know that the convict has someone in his corner. One of the biggest reasons for lengthy sentences is the lack of a support system that is directly linked to higher recidivism rates.And this last part might seem like bad advice, and might be difficult for some. Avoid references to church, Christianity, spiritual change, salvation, conversion, etc. Far too many convicted people have used Christianity as a sort of emergency exit strategy. It has worked in the past, but the success of such attempts is waining. Judges and parole boards are reacting harshly to those who publicly profess Christianity or some other form of religious faith, especially if they did not demonstrate it in their lives previous to the criminal infraction. Judges give harsher sentences and parole boards more readily give parole denials. If you mention it, do so very briefly and keep it in the context of how you know the person: i.e. "We have been members of the same Bible study group for XX years," or "We have been members of the same church for XX years."Do not give the person's testimony for him. Let him do that, and if you talk to him before he goes before the judge, tell him to let his demeanor and actions give his testimony.Again, and I can't stress this enough, speak from your heart. You are not going to successfully BS a judge (well, most judges). Likely as not your letter will have little affect on the sentencing outcome, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. Trying to help won't hurt. That is provided you take suggestions well.

Question
Answer
If you have a CDA in place with a Company that has multiply locations will the terms travel with the location you wish to speak with? Or must the disclose in the CDA "...and affiliates"?
Answer
An attorney cannot realistically evaluate the scope of a particular contract without reviewing the actual language and/or discussing specific details.
A company with multiple locations will still be the same company in each location (so "affiliate" language may not make a difference).

Answer
I had an unlawful detainer filed against me. I was able to work with the landlord and the case was dismissed. During the hearing I did ask about the UD showing on my records I was told that it wouldn't. However if I search the court records now it does show. How or what do I need to do so it doesn't show? Thank you
Answer
You might petition the court to "mask" the record permanently, so that it won't be available to others to possibly reflect on your credit report. If you have a tenants' organization or self-help center connected with the court, you might talk to them about getting help with the process.
Answer
If you settled the case within sixty (60) days of the case filing, it should not be in the court records. If you settled the case after the 60 day point, then you will need to check the settlement agreement or the reporter's transcript to make sure that your request that it not be of record was made known to the court and may have to file a motion with the court to have it sealed.

Answer
i recently moved into a property had a verbal agreement with the landlord and signed the lease prior to the background check and because the background check didn't check out we are being asked to leave the premises. can they do that?
Answer
If you lease is not signed by the LL, yes. You would be considered a month to month tenant.
Answer
The verbal agreement only allows whatever its terms were. If you don't have a finalized lease then Mr. Slater is correct and you would be limited to a periodic lease based on the payment you committed to make.

Question
Answer
My grandfather hired a property management company 6 months ago. The broker used the standard CAR agreement, and handwrote all terms. The property manager put terrible residents in the building who used drugs, stole, etc. Also, even after numerous requests no repairs were made. Also, the plants were not maintained. There were also tenants who did not pay rent and were not given three day notices. There was never a full accounting, either. My grandfather fired the property management company and now they are suing him for $5,000. What can he do to defend this? There was no right to cancel according to the contract until after one year, but the building was getting worse and worse. There were four vacancies and two non paying tenants out of 20 when he fired them. Is there any law that he can claim is on his side? What strategy would you take as an attorney if we were to hire you?
Answer
Counter sue for breach of contract and seek more damages than they are claiming. The property management company itself may be illegal and that should be checked into as well.

What options do I have to show she is not doing her job correctly and is miss using her authority over my inherited affairs, who do I turn to for help in enforcing her duties as executor?
Answer
If you have specific instances of what she is not doing that violate her fiduciary duty, you can file a petition to remove the personal representative. What will happen is very fact intensive, but you need to meet with an attorney to discuss what steps you can take to enforce the will provisions.
