In Texas, if grandma's will says that her estate is to be split equally among her three children when she dies, but one of the children dies before her, what happens to that third of the estate? The deceased child was unmarried with a single child of their own, died without a will and had large debts and minimal assets. Does that third of the estate get passed straight through to the surviving grandchild? Does the third of the estate have to settle the predeceased's estate before going onto the grandchild?

What is the exact language of the hypothetical will.

Yeah depends on the language of the will. Most will specify that if a child predeceased the testatrix the money passes to their kids in equal shares.

Yeah when my paternal grandpa died, his will specifically stated his estate was to be split into quarters among his 4 children, but if any of them had died their share would be equally shared among that child's descendants, so I was entitled to an eight of the will to be shared with my brother. It didn't say poo poo about if I was dead, but I don't imagine most wills cover infinite descendants (mine will though).

What would happen if, hypothetically, I were to fall into a coma and while I was that coma my bills weren't being paid for say two months? Would I wake up and find out my car has been repossessed and I have lots of medical bills and no more health insurance? This hypothetical takes place in the US so I'm guessing the answer is most likely "tough poo poo".

I applied for insurance through the health insurance market place and am now being bombarded by shifty insurance companies. One of which is really annoying and persistent, calling me 10+ times a day, back to back and at odd hours. I've asked these people to stop calling me and I've been on the DNC list for years. They hang up whenever I ask for a physical address for their company. I suspect these guys are spoofing their caller ID because whenever I add one of their numbers to my ignore list they call from a different number. A cursory search shows that they've been pissing people off with idiotic marketing for years. What can I legally do to make these fuckwits go away and not contact me ever again? E: This is all in the US. Azuth0667 fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Nov 11, 2015 |

You should have health insurance and if you end up in a coma for two months and no one checks in on you during that time your problems are significantly more worrisome than financial.

If you really want to get a physical address, put on an old man voice the next time they call, act all surprised when they say your benefits are running out or whatever and say you want to get it squared away right away, where do I send a cheque, I don't believe in credit cards ever since the *racist slur* on the tv and the war with the *racist slur*. I don't know poo poo about the telemarketer harassment laws, but I assume once you've got a place to serve them at, you can start documenting the endless calls and you telling them not to call you again and maybe collect a pay day from that. What I had to do when some person made up a phone number to a loan company and it turned out to be mine was I pretended to be in the middle of horrific dumps and would just talk to them as long as I could giving them zero information while fart and diarrhea noises played in the background. It was childish, but eventually the calls stopped. The do not call list is a joke and is worthless. vvvv I've filled out so many of those complaints. Nothing ever ever happens. pathetic little tramp fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Nov 11, 2015 |

Yeah, ignore pathetic little tramp. Go here and file a complaint. I can't check too much of their form, but all identifying information you can provide that will let them identify the source entity (accent of speaker, as many of the numbers called from as you have written down, company name, basics of scheme) will let them narrow down the list of possibilities and eventually make arrests.

Sounds like we're a bit screwed on the key front - I'm going to continue trying to get hold of her to see if she'll at least let me come and pick them up, because frankly it is going to be a complete arse to arrange a locksmith etc and I can't help Steve find a new subtenant until that is sorted (and the room cleaned). I am going to try and charge her for the lock change (i.e. send a formal invoice by recorded delivery to her home address), but also accept that her "ignore everything" approach is unfortunately probably going to work her favour. I'll let Steve fight it out over rent if he wants. To be honest, the biggest surprise of all of this is how she handled it - living in a room with rotting food, and leaving without telling either me (as her flatmate) or Steve (as her landlord) is just plain rude and not what I would expect of an adult in a well respected profession (law, ironically, although perhaps that is why she knows she can probably just ignore this and doesn't care about the stress she is causing me and Steve). I'll let you know if anything does come of it.

Okay thanks to both of you. I reported every number they called me from. I've tried tricking them into giving me a physical address and haven't got farther than a state from one of them before they spazz out and hang up. The BBB has them listed however I question how accurate that address is going to be with these guys being a shifty insurance broker and all. Is there a license required for operating a business that sells insurance I can use to track them by?

Woah woah woah woah woah. Do you know which firm she works at? Because a well written and polite email to a partner there explaining that she's left you in a bit of a mess with the room and didn't return the keys and isn't answering your messages and you are very sorry to have to bring this to you but you don't know where else to turn and is there anything you can do to help? could work wonders for your friend's situation. Lawyers do not like to find out that their colleagues/employees have a habit of acting in ways that'll eventually catch up to cause them reputational damage.

IANAL: Technically, maybe, and it may or not be possible for you to find it based on the jurisdiction- it's by state, so documentation varies. If the outfit has a license at all, they will almost certainly be in a state that makes accessing license records as hard as possible. These sort of scum are very much a tragedy of the commons sort of issue- FTC has (understandably) higher priorities, and no one individual or entity has the resources or information to track them down and nail them to the wall.

Why are you trying to "notify an agent" of the company? If you've actually identified the entity and bypassed the systems they use to hide themselves, report it to the FTC and they will be shut down. vvvvv The FTC doesn't act because they can't devote resources to identifying the company and don't have a way to get around spoofing tech. If you have managed to obtain that information and can document it, that is what you should do. A strongly worded letter, absent one written in consultation with a lawyer, is not going to do anything. You will not be able to generate civil liability beyond the laws the company is already breaking by contacting you as they already do.

To send them a don't contact me ever again letter and have some kind of legal recourse if they continue to do it. I've already reported literally every call I have received from them to the FTC.

No. The ceo is the ceo (officer), agents are completely different and agency law depends on your law, but generally you have a principal and agent relationship that deals with scope. Think of it more like a third party relationship where you grant a separate person the ability to do a limited thing (like accept service of process), that person is your agent for that limited thing and nothing else. You generally aren't going to have an agency relationship with employee, officer, director etc. I am in the U.S., are you the UK person?

Oh no, it's benign. I got pulled over Saturday night just after midnight on an unlit, backwoods road in rural Virginia. Cop said he thought I was drunk because I kept tapping the fog line. Gave me the business for being from out-of-state and tried to trip me up with some cheeky questions. Eventually realized that I was just tired, and let me go without writing up anything. I just wanted to know if the next time I get pulled over something in VA, if it's likely to show up for their radar.
