BonerGhost posted:This is only legal-adjacent, I think, but are there any Californians with experience in keeping a landlord off your back to have an emotional support animal when pets aren't otherwise allowed? I'd happily pay an extra deposit, but they don't want to give that option despite the clear signs of one or multiple cats in here previously so I don't really care. To clarify, has your landlord refused to let you pay a pet deposit or stated they would not allow an ESA? The only requirement is that you have a letter from a doctor stating you need an ESA, and that you give a copy of that letter to your landlord. An ESA is not a pet, and they have no ability to charge you a deposit for it, or refuse to permit it based on pet rules. Google has the following for california specifically: https://www.dfeh.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/32/2022/04/EmotionalSupportAnimalsandFairHousingLawFAQ_ENG.pdf

BigHead posted:Try the actual California bar association website. I just googled "california bar association referral" and the first link at calbar.ca.gov lets you pick a county and has a thousand 1-800 numbers. Try that, and if that doesn't work come back and let us know. They recommend "certified referral services", but I note that part of the service provided is that the lawyer has to give you a discounted rate on the first visit, which I suspect may weed out the more successful lawyers who don't have to. https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Public/Need-Legal-Help/Using-a-Certified-Lawyer-Referral-Service Thoughts? e: None of the services they list for my county, Mendocino, is actually in Mendocino.

All the results I could find were from certificate mills and various similar sources so I was having a hard time getting legitimate info about requirements. I haven't broached the subject of a pet with them, but the lease says no pets except for ESAs. It's a management company and no employee so far has displayed any ability to exercise judgement or act with basic courtesy, so I expect they'll demand a letter. If it can come from my regular doctor as this document indicates, I shouldn't have much problem getting that. I think the likelihood of them finding out or actually caring about a pet is low, but the consequences would be bad, so we need to keep it above board if I'm to have critters (even though the house reeks of cat piss already).

I have a dumb question for some writing I am doing. What keeps lawyers from discussing cases under NDA? Is it in the NDA itself, or is part of the Rules of Professional Conduct? I'm guessing the later but I'd like to be sure.

Look at model rule of professional conduct 1.6: https://www.americanbar.org/groups/...of_information/ Note that that has nothing to do with any existing agreements between a party and another party.

Arsenic Lupin posted:Ironically, their site doesn't let you select lawyers specifying in real estate. See the dropdowns here. https://apps.calbar.ca.gov/members/ls_search.aspx Apparently California doesn't certify real estate lawyers? The specialization page you linked is for certified specializations. Real estate is not a separate certified specialty. You can be a specialist in real estate law in the sense that you mostly do real estate, but it wouldn't be what that page describes. Call one of those referral services, and tell them precisely what you told us in those two posts. "I need a lawyer who does real estate in Mendocino" seems like the kind of quandary they're designed for. It sounds like that's exactly what you need. They'll maintain a list and send you one or three names. Like what Redfin or Zillow do for real estate agents. And no, those referral services don't just scrape the bottom of the barrel.

All the results I could find were from certificate mills and various similar sources so I was having a hard time getting legitimate info about requirements. I wouldn't regard it as "demanding" a letter; the letter is what legally differentiates your ESA from a random pet, so getting it is just the process of proving that to them. But that's what you should expect, yeah. What I WOULD do is just ask them tomorrow what kind of paperwork they want for an ESA. This is federal law, if they own a lot of properties you will be the tenth person this year to ask that person that question; I bet they just have a form you can fill out and have the doctor sign, but if not it'll just be a letter which will ALSO probably be the tenth one your doctor has written recently. Once they have that on file you're good; it doesn't apply to any one specific pet, since they don't have to be trained or anything, it's just a "this animal is not a pet" pass for whatever ESA you end up with. I have personally gone through this process with a big faceless apartment-corp in a state that touches California, and it was literally just giving them the paper. They don't care past that.

Trapick posted:My in-laws have a couple small pieces of property they bought ~30 years ago, with the intention of giving to my wife and her sister eventually to use for a cabin or whatever (small rural island). I think they should talk to an estate planning attorney, because just having dad give you the property doesn't mean no others of his inheritors could attempt to claim it or a portion of it after his death. My parents are accomplishing something similar by placing their assets in a trust, which entirely avoids probate and ensures their wishes will be swiftly seen to when they're gone. For a single real estate asset it may be simpler than that, I dunno. Expect to pay for an hour or two of a lawyer's time for a consult, at a minimum. Transfer of property as a gift doesn't have to cost thousands of dollars, but it's not going to be free and the in-laws will have to do some paperwork. They will have to establish the value of the property, so that they can file it as a gift with the IRS - the value will be well within the lifetime gift tax exemption (currently $23.4M lol) so they won't have to pay tax, but they form is required. They'll need to transfer and record the deed, and any real estate lawyer can help do that for probably a few hundred bucks. Plus probably a fee to a title company, maybe a tax or two, etc.

I ordered some stuff from a company online and, when I went to check out, the total was $66. I track my expenses for my business down to the penny and the receipt showed the total cost of items, shipping, and tax was $65.32 with no line item to account for the other 68 cents. Obviously, I'm not going to make a fuss over 68 cents, but I'm wondering about the legality of a company just rounding up like that for the final total.

Grip it and rip it posted:were you charged 66 dollars or 65 and change? I was charged $66. I saw the total was $66 and agreed to pay it during checkout. It wasn't until I was tracking expenses later that I noticed that the items didn't add up to the full $66.

"it depends" you could have an explicit policy that all totals are rounded up to the nearest dollar and then that's just the price, with a sub-$1 "we don't like pennies" fee added, this whole thing is incredibly fact-dependent plus there are also answers like "your card has a feature that rounds up all bills and dumps the change into a savings account/sends it to charity"

evilweasel posted:"it depends" I probably would have laughed if they had line on the receipt "We don't like pennies: $0.68". I was just curious about the legality of charging an arbitrary amount over the cost of items/tax/shipping without stating what the additional fee was for.

In Pennsylvania you can treat a red light like a stop sign in certain circumstances (c) Inoperable or malfunctioning signal.—If a traffic-control signal is out of operation or is not functioning properly, including, but not limited to, a signal that uses inductive loop sensors or other automated technology to detect the presence of vehicles that fails to detect a vehicle, vehicular traffic facing a: (1) Green or yellow signal may proceed with caution as indicated in subsection (a)(1) and (2). (2) Red or completely unlighted signal shall stop in the same manner as at a stop sign, and the right to proceed shall be subject to the rules applicable after making a stop at a stop sign as provided in section 3323 (relating to stop signs and yield signs). euphronius fucked around with this message at 11:14 on Jul 27, 2022 |
