Is this stealing? How can one alert the authorities if this is against Minnesota or federal law?
Too many questions would need to be asked before we could give you a correct answer. You will need to setup a consultation with a lawyer.
Yes, this is at least a 2 point violation and I strongly urge you to get counsel in the area of the court as they are usually more knowledgeable of the happenings and trends in their Court.
I worked one year of the 2 year contract as a physician in NJ private practice group. I would like to leave. Company is saying they are gonna hold me to my 2 year contract. can they do that? can I tell them that its illegal?

The deed is for a life estate. In normal situations, the life estate is vested in the people until they die, and then after they pass the property goes to who is named in the will. The will takes over after the life estate is over. The property could be sold and divided if Gerald and Eddy agree.

Can u pls interpret this for me? Particularly the ABSENCE of INTENTIONAL WRONGDOING”
