- Q. I bought a cabin in 2010 After close I put my mate on the title. I paid it off 2016. She paid $0. Is she entitled to
- A: Hello,
I see you are from California but asked a question in MN's Civil Litigation section. I'm assuming the property you are asking about is located in MN. Generally speaking, 50/50 owners split the sale proceeds of a property 50/50, but the rule is not absolute. Courts should, and frequently do, look at it on a case by case basis. You probably have very good arguments that the majority of the sale proceeds should be paid to you. But this will probably have to be resolved by an agreement between you and your ex or through litigation in Court.
- Q. I bought five tractors have a copy of a check and a bill of sale , Tractors were gone when went to pickup.
- A: You have a couple of options. First, you should consult with an attorney. Many attorneys offer free initial consultations. But if you don't want to do that, consider sending a demand letter for the tractors and/or return of your money. If that does not work, sue in small claims court (if possible). If you cannot sue in small claims court, hire an attorney. Good luck!
- Q. I filed a restraining order with the false information the respondent gave under perjury? How to rectify this?
- A: I would prepare an "Amended Petition" with the correct name and just file it in the same case and serve the document by U.S. Mail.
