Do I file a ALLEGATION OF USE (STATEMENT OF USE/AMENDMENT TO ALLEGE USE) first and then answer this deficiency letter or both can be done together?

You should consult an attorney.
Most likely you need to respond to the office action and then wait for the notice of allowance to be issued
Is it proper ,in a Trust's checking account, in published checks, the trustee puts her name and address at least twice as large as the name of the Trust, and omits the sole beneficiary's name (which is part of the Trust legal name/title) and omits the E.I. N. number indicating this is a... Read more »

As a beneficiary you are entitled to periodic accountings. You probably need to hire an attorney to help you enforce your rights. You are looking for a trust litigation attorney.
I deposited a $5000 check on January 29th. On Tuesday February 2, I contacted the bank and ask how long would it take for the check to clear.

When counting business days Banks do not count the date of the deposit--in this case Friday January 29.
So count with me: Monday February 1 was the first business day;
Tuesday February 2 was day #2;
continue on counting through Friday February 5, which is business day #5;... Read more »

A Delaware attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks.

I have the contract I would love to get someone to look it over.

The question regards a contract for employment. Was the contract received following an interview? Does the company sell goods or provide services? Is the employment offer for a job for which you applied? Does the Better Business Bureau or the Chamber of Commerce recognize? How long has the... Read more »
The creditor (IEH) with the collusion of management is grossly undervaluing assets (3 separate FDA approved drugs and one pipeline drug) more properly valued at $500M. Management was to have refinanced the $170M debt already but due to gross negligence or complicity with creditor failed to do so.... Read more »

Firstly, a forum like this is an inadequate place to answer a complex question such as yours.
If you--and other stockholders--are aggrieved then you need to hire your own lawyer to appear on your behalf to address the issues. There is no way to enjoin the progress of a bankruptcy--only to... Read more »
I'm a resident of DE.
Dec-Feb we had a contractor doing work on the house. He used my home depot credit card use for supplies. I rcvd the card back with the receipt each time. So he may or may not be connected with the fraud.
In March we had $640 worth of fraud charges on the... Read more »

I am sure that Delaware has a small claims court system. Your claim, being under $1000.00 will most likely fall in the jurisdiction. You need to sue the contractor for use of the CC beyond the permissive use you gave him. Pay the CC to preserve your credit. HD really did not do anything wrong,... Read more »
I have been furloughed for COVID, now my boss is telling me she cant afford to bring me back and can only pay me for 2 more weeks or I will have to renegotiate my contract. I am getting ready to sign a mortgage so this ie really putting me in a bind.

I would recommend reaching out to an employment law attorney in your state. It sounds like your employment is governed by a contract, so if your employer is not meeting their obligation within that contract, they may be in breach. There are different strategies that can be taken depending on your... Read more »
Salary was substantially reduced and I was notified via phone call and email. I signed an initial contract stating what my compensation would be and now it is greatly reduced.

It depends. If you have an employment contract signed by you and the employer stating that you will receive a specified salary and the employer is no longer paying you that salary, the employer may be in breach of the contract. However, employers routinely send offer letters to prospective... Read more »
She is a beneficiary of the trust and the RMDs are to be used for her medical and living expenses each year. The executor does not want to distribute the RMD this year but she relies on it for her medical care. Does she have any recourse?

It is not possible to answer your question without reviewing the trust instrument. The answer depends on the distribution standard in the trust, and distribution standards vary a great deal from trust to trust.
By the way, the administrator of a trustee is usually called the... Read more »
The insurance company decided the other driver was at fault for an accident I was in recently. My car is not drivable and as a result I can’t see my therapist who has said I should be there every week. I have really been struggling without access to therapy, is it worth opening an emotional... Read more »

This sounds like it would be difficult case, if it were to be based on not being able to get to a therapist's office due to an inoperable vehicle, for which the fix could ordinarily be a rental vehicle or reimbursement of transportation expenses. Emotional trauma can be an element of damages... Read more »

I cofounded a S corporation in Delaware a few months ago and left the company as the board member and employee after a couple of months due to disputes with my partner. I still kept the shares (50%) because I was not compensated for the work I did. The company was a start-up and did not have any... Read more »

Depends on what's in the operating agreement/by-laws. What was the underlying entity that was S-elected? S-corps cannot be created at the state level, you have to have a registered entity upon which to elect S status. The IRS will use the entity law to determine owner liability and... Read more »

A med mal case is too complex a matter on which to give cookbook-style step-by-step instructions. If someone replied to you along the lines of: serve summons and complaint, conduct discovery, file note of issue, await trial, select jury, etc., it would be worthless. The entire process can take...

Yes, because the county and state will put tax liens on the mobile home--whether you have the title or not.
Over to my sister since I'm out of state. In the will we split evenly. Can I bill the estate for the 6 months I took care of mom

divided between us. I live in DE - she lives in GA where the lawyer is - there has been nothing posted in paper regarding death or collections? she is asking me to make her "sole executor" which i do not want to do. What are my options to resolve this issue & split the inheritance?

She might want to be sole executor solely for convenience. Or she might want to keep the executor fee all for herself. Or, she might have more even more nefarious reasons. There is no way any attorney answering this question can know.
Your grandmother had reasons for naming both of... Read more »
