Even doing pandemic….there’s no contract/lease for September
You need to give them 7 days' notice that you will not be renewing their lease and they need to vacate as of August 31. If they are not out as of August 1, you can try pursuing summary ejectment, but check the second box on form AOC-CVM-201 which says "The lease period ended on the above... Read more »
The executor will not be able to travel to Texas.
In ordinary times, yes. However, if the particular court is still doing Zoom hearings due to Covid, then the executor does not need to participate in the hearing in-person. Check with a probate attorney to see how this particular court is operating.
They are now telling him he was never booked or fingerprinted. Can he fight that? Or does he have to comply and go in since it was their mess up and he was technically never arrested for the crime.
Getting booked and fingerprinted is a requirement when someone is charged with a DWI. I’m guessing that didn’t happen because of the pandemic. So he will need to go through the process. It doesn’t take long and he won’t have to spend any time in jail.
This assumes I can genetically trace this particular strain of covid back to the spreader.
anyone can sue at any time.
i suspect the issue will be whether you can find a lawyer to handle on a contingency or whether you could afford to fund a lawsuit................AND
whether there would be enough evidence to prevail.......my guess is you would not have the evidence.
To NJ. Granddaughter wants to live with father. Mother refused to send docs to father. As her maternal grandmother can I ask the court for a law guardian for my Granddaughter.

Thank you for your question. I am so sorry that you and your granddaughter have to go through this stressful time.
The most direct answer is you can file a grandparents rights application and request formal custody of your granddaughter. Then the court can order your daughter to turn over... Read more »
I entered the US this time on a B1/B2 visa and I wasn't working at the time I got married to my wife and we filed for Adjustment of Status and EAD in June 2019.

Yes. As long as you are authorized to accept employment your income may be used as household income.
Day vacate notice so I can renovate to eventually sell. Is this legal with current COVID guidelines?
Selling is not a basis to evict, but the expiration of the lease is a valid basis to evict in VA. If you decide to hire a lawyer to assist with the eviction, I'm sure anyone who responds would be happy to help. Good luck.
During covid my hours and wage were adjusted, I was told verbally that my hours had been restored and proceeded to work a 40 hour week. My manager approved my time card for 7 months.

I contracted the virus at work, kroger. I am still having complications from the virus and unable to work. I was advised I might be eligible for worker's comp.
Probably not. You are neither a healthcare worker nor a first responder. Hundreds of thousands of people have contracted this virus which is to say that the likelihood of PROVING your exposure to be work-related is very low. Moreover, Workers' Compensation has express exceptions within the... Read more »
People are moving here so when we apply for homes there’s already several apps on one home can we qualify under cdc extension
No. Your landlord is never required to renew your lease, and doesn't need a reason to not renew. Consequently, your tenancy will end at the end of the lease, and you must leave. A non-renewal is not an eviction, so Covid rules are completely irrelevant.
They are only requiring corporate people to go home if unvaccinated. They do not require this for the entire company. If they fire someone would it be legal?
In general Alabama is a right to work state and a person can be fired for almost any reason. It is also likely fine for them to institute this policy for Alabama only. The limitation would be if you are protected under the ADA to avoid receiving the vaccination due to some pre-existing health... Read more »
I'm unvaccinated and was exposed to Covid by a coworker at work. My job is requiring me to quarantine without pay for a minimum of 7 days. Are they allowed to withhold pay from me since I was exposed at work?
By "making you quarantine" your employer is being responsible and doing what the law requires them to do to protect ALL their employees.
Regarding paying you: If you are a salaried employee or have a written employment agreement that speaks to this issue than your employer will... Read more »

A landlord can terminate a month-to month tenancy with 15 days notice (the notice must be a valid written notice delivered according to the requirements of the Lease or statute). Termination of a tenancy is not an eviction, so none of the COVID rules, regulations or pronouncements from on high have... Read more »

And I was never scheduled after
So my question is can a job fire you for not showing up after telling you not to come w/o proof
Yes. Why? Because Florida is an “at will” state, which means private employers are free to hire, promote, demote, suspend, reinstate, fire and rehire employees for any reason at any time, i.e., “at will.” The only thing employers cannot do is make any of these adverse employment decisions...

Who can I talk to about obtaining legal counsel to defend my medical freedom against my employer?
Do I have a case???
What type of attorney do I need ?
You do have a choice, and that is not to work for that employer. Employers have the right to determine the safety rules to assure the ongoing safety of all employees. Employers can require that all employees be vaccinated against Covid19, just the same as when we were all vaccinated as children... Read more »

They're going to try and scare you into accepting a lower amount of money by threatening to appeal.
You need an Attorney who will represent you in the appeal. Otherwise they will appeal the case a demand a jury trial.

Short answer is yes, should they is another question entirely. Many of the norms we typically associate with hospital protocols have been altered by COVID-19. If you suffered an injury as a result of that situation it may be worth contacting an attorney for a private consultation.
