liability
My family owned a business for many
years, then sold it to a large
corporation. My cousin worked for the
business and recently left it and
started on his own, with the same
name. The business has now
contacted me and wishes to employ
me as a consultant, to put me in ads,
etc. to drum back business. Am I
opening myself up to any legal
problems from cousin? Should I ask
for indemnification?

Indemnification Agreement
I negotiated a settlement with my business partner and left a business 18 months ago. But, the landlord would not release me from my personal obligation on the property rental lease for the business. My partner personally indemnified me from any debts or obligations of the business including this lease. After several months, the landlord contacted me and we I negotiated a sum of $19,000 to remove me from the original lease and any furture obligations to him. What can I do to recover this money from my ex-business partner who is in breach of the rental lease and failed to follow the indemnification contract?

Toll violation ticket but I have EZ pass ?

Toll violation ticket but I have EZ pass ?
My son received a ticket in the mail citing his car for a toll violation on the garden state parkway. His car has EZ pass. The trooper signed the ticket, and a ”witness” (apparently a toll collector) signed it as well. It’s a $ 55.00 ticket ! How is it possible that the vehicle wasn’t stopped, the EZ normally issues violations (with a lesser fine) for violations. Isn’t this a waste of a troopers time and some form of double indemnity ? I’m waiting for my EZ pass statement to see if we were charged twice, actually paid, or got an EZ pass violation already.

Whats up with this ?

Hello, I live in a 4 family apartment complex and my circuit breaker box keeps going off when I use some household appliances at the same time. I am unable to use an electric heater and microwave at the same time. 2 days in January we were out of electricity and the landlord did not do anything about it. We called our own electrician whom we paid $40 He sais the problem was that we only had only 2 wires and one of them burnt off so we were using only one wire which was dangerous. He “bypassed” some wired to provide temporary solution which is still dangerous. He advised the landlord that we needed a better cuircuit breaker with at least 3 wires like the other 3 apartments which will cost him $250. He refused to pay for it. We spend $ 128 to buy ice, fuses, travel to stay with family for 2 days. When I asked for my money he said I was nut that he was not paying for my negligence and if anything I should split the cost of the circuit breaker with him. There are countless repairs that need to be done ( boiler we need to refill every night, paint peeling from the kitchen ceiling due to leak in the upstairs apt, mice infestation…). Can I withhold rent until he fixes everything or I an just move without notice ( I have a month to month lease)
