Most states regulate seeds adjacently to their actual medicinal or recreational marijuana programs. You will need to consult the agricultural laws or agencies in your state to determine whether the sale of cannabis seeds has been directly promulgated or provided for in your state.

Clackamas Housing Authority is my landlord. Check was for relocation which has already been completed at my expense.
Not clear why your landlord was paying you relocation money in May if you are still there, nor the reason the check bounced - one would presume that it was not for insufficient funds if the landlord was the Clackamas Housing Authority. It sounds as if the Housing Authority, for whatever reason,... Read more »
You should very carefully review things with a local tort attorney. Fraud is often difficult to prove; you normally must prove specific damages, and the standard of proof is higher than for most other civil lawsuits (Clear and Convincing as opposed to just a preponderance). Often there may be... Read more »
My ex has me 23,000 in debt to him by lying. If I have proof of his deceet, should I ask him to legally squash it or just file small claims or civil suit and then provide the courts with my proof?
The small claims limit in Oregon is $10,000 so that may not be your best route. Not sure what you are thinking of filing in court. If he erroneously claims you owe him money, you simply don't pay him. His choice will ultimately be to either drop the matter or sue you for it in court - and... Read more »
To answer your question more information would be needed. For example, the executor (called Personal Representative in Oregon) could have received money because he/she was named as beneficiary on the asset (an IRA or life insurance, for example). In that case the PR would not be required to... Read more »
I understand that the first month must be payed on time exactly, but i heard it could be pro rated to carry into the next minth, so up to the 25th of october would be payed. Im hesitant to bring it up with my landlord, so I simply must know if its a sound argument or a college student making a big... Read more »
In Oregon, monthly rent is pro-rated by the day - by law. Sometimes landlord's like to charge a new tenant a full month's rent upon move-in and then pro-rate the next month's rent for the the actual number of days the new tenant was in possession during their first partial month.... Read more »
They wanted me to deposit $500 non refundable without reading the rules to the apartments. Was treated rudely when asked for these papers. I was also told "that's why we set up a 2 hour meeting for you to read these..." but, after I give them my non refundable deposit. I was approved... Read more »
First, there is no such thing as a non-refundable deposit. If it is non-refundable, it is a fee. If it is refundable under any conditions, then it is a deposit, but the two are mutually exclusive. That said, you don't say exactly what the $500 was for. Legally it could be for screening or... Read more »
Claims he's selling to his state trooper son and that's why it's not on the market and has given notice that they are showing the unit. Landlord also has given 2 eviction notices to my boyfriend claiming he's in violation of the rental agreement for moving me in. Can he really... Read more »
Of course he can claim it - his problem is likely to be proving it if there are no written terms to refer to. These appear to be separate issues. A landlord can terminate your month to month tenancy with 30 days notice during your first year of occupancy (assuming you are not inside Portland city... Read more »

Sorry, but your question should be directed to a fanily law or domestic relations attorney.
I am about to be garnished for my full check for 2 and a half months.
I am wondering if I can apply for a loan to survive. If I get the loan I am okay. If I don't get the loan, will having applied for it prevent me from filing for bankruptcy?
The simple answer is no, applying for a loan does NOT make you ineligible for bankruptcy relief. Do NOT make any material misrepresentations on your loan application. (It's a crime to make a false statement to a financial institution, insured by the federal government, in a loan... Read more »
I brought them in organized in a folder. When I tried inquiring about it, they kept saying they would look for them and call me back. They didn’t call back and lied and said I didn’t leave a voicemail when I have record of the call. They mentioned early on if they needed to reprint some of the... Read more »
Very sorry for your experience. It is not a good feeling to have your records destroyed by those you expect to protect them. Is there a way to obtain these records again? You said that you brought in an organized folder, so I assume that you had copies obtained from another healthcare provider? If... Read more »
Written Notification twice since then he has not responded.This is in the city of Portland.We have no written contract, I've been here over 10 years,paying month-to-month. Is this legal and what is my recourse?
You may wish to just stay quiet - and stop pushing for a written notice - since the notice is invalid both because it provides less than 90 days advanced notice and because it was not a written notice. The sooner the landlord realizes his error, the sooner he will correct it - and the sooner you... Read more »
I live in Klamath County. I accepted a verbal agreement to receive housing and utilities in exchange for caregiving in December of 2020.
My boyfriend moved in with me in Feb. Of 2021 with landlords approval. In March landlord asked for 150 a month. I agreed. In July bf and I had a domestic... Read more »
You need to review everything with a local landlord-tenant attorney. First, rent cannot be increased during your first year of tenancy, nor can it be increased more than 9.2% over any 12 month rolling period - both of which sound to be violated. Plus any rent increase requires at least 90 days... Read more »
A month after I moved in the construction started. We don’t have ac built in so we use a window unit. Our electric has gone up due to trying to cool off the apartment. Our apartment is excessively hotter than it was the first month we moved in (June)
It depends upon whether the landlord needs to enter your space. If so, at least 24 hrs advanced notice is required. Otherwise, no. Not clear what your point is re AC - of course your apartment was excessively hotter in July than in June. It was hotter outside and triple digit temperatures tend... Read more »
Can my landlord turn off the hot water for us not to use when we do laundryAnd is it a crime for my landlord to lie under oath if I have proof
If the landlord shut off your hot water, unless it was for repairs, you may have claims. Lying under oath generally is a crime - one that happens everyday in every court but which is very rarely prosecuted. If you can prove the hot water shut off, you may want to review everything with a local... Read more »

It is unclear what, if anything, you are asking. You apparently already have an attorney and they are the person to talk with - they know your case better than anyone reading a few paragraphs in an on-line forum. If you no longer trust your attorney, fire them and get a new one that you do trust.
We have a landlord that is refusing to resolve a water issue resulting in no water being provided, and is stopping us from bringing in water via a truck. They have turned their pigs loose which have been on the property for 2 years and have been asked repeatedly to take care of them. They are... Read more »
Your posting does not begin to provide enough information to even understand what is going on, let alone analyze the legal positions. Subleasing is usually prohibited in most - but not all - residential leases, at least without the true landlord's written permission. Beyond that, landlords... Read more »
We were looking to do a deed transfer, but I had questions of triggering a capital gains tax, or gift tax. I was advised the recipient will inherit the gift giver's tax basis, thus losing the step up in basis at death that would otherwise have occurred, thus creating in most cases a capital... Read more »
Example: father purchased the property for $50,000 in the 80s. His orignial "tax basis" is $50,000. So that if he sells it for $50,001 he has a gain of $1. Now its 2021 and It is now worth $200,000. The built in gain is $150,000.
If he holds onto the property, either as a... Read more »
