Q: If I received noticed that the house is going foreclosure can i break the lease then
Terrence H Thorgaard's answer
No, until and unless the foreclosure sale actually happens, you would be in breach of the lease were you to "break the lease" (do something in violation of the lease terms such as failing to make the lease payments when due). In fact, the landlord would have a strong case that, were you to stop making payments and the property were foreclosed as a result, you might be liable for the damages.

Q: My employer is forcing me to drive a semi without a commercial driver's license can I sue with video evidence
Mr. Michael O. Stevens' answer
Not really sure what your damages would be, so hard to judge if it would be worth it. You could report them to the state for this illegal behavior. If they then fire you, you could sue them for retaliation which would be easier to win and clearer damages.

First, if you want to look up a particular website, please see the following link: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/
Second, if you aren't able to see your kids and your wife is threatening a move, then you need to ask the court for an emergency hearing asap to resolve these issues. I would suggest you hire a private attorney so you don't waste valuable time and money.

Q: used to owe my ex on CS that wore late payments for total of $2,610.11 that was on 2014 it has already been catched up
Julie A. Rice's answer
Did you pay from 2009 to 2014 besides the arrears you speak of? If not, then you owe that additional amount before she finds you in contempt again. Just b/c you are paying on arrears doesn't mean that your existing obligation stops.

Q: Why i loose the car i pay the bank every month even i owe the dealer $400
Julie A. Rice's answer
Because you owe the dealer. Why do you owe the dealer when you are paying the bank? Whatever arrangement you have made, you have obviously not abided by the agreement so the car has been repossessed or will be repossessed.

Q: Can I get arrested in my new state with an out of state warrant, but my license has since changed to the new state?
Julie A. Rice's answer
Yes, you can be arrested and you will be taken back to the original place of the warrant and once that is resolved, then you will be transported back to FL to face whatever crime you committed here for which you were stopped and they found out you had a prior warrant. You can't run from these things and I promise you that it will happen at the most inconvenient moment such as on your way to work etc. As soon as you can deal with it, then deal with it.

Julie A. Rice's answer
Go to court and have it reduced to no points to save your car insurance. If you have to, then take a defensive driving class and that will make both the court and your insurance company happy ~ it won't hurt you either.
