Can I enforce legl action to get my money back from someone overseas?

Answered 9 years and 6 months ago by attorney Bruce Robins   |   1 Answer
Bruce Robins
It is certainly possible to enforce your claim.  However, assuming that you have no basis to sue the debtor in Australia, the debtor may be able to force you to appear in the US, for deposition and/or trial.  This is not a certainty, as you may be able to obtain a summary judgment based on undisputed facts set froth in an affidavit, and also the Court may allow you to be deposed by video conference, but it is possible, and, along with retaining an attorney, may be more costly than the matter is worth....

My wife has a car loan with her exhusband he refused to remove her name what makes it hard for us to get a mortgage or car loan for ourselves

Answered 10 years ago by attorney Bruce Robins   |   1 Answer
Bruce Robins
Your wife's ex has no power to unilaterally remove her as an obligor on the car loan, as this would prejudice the lender (co-signers benefit the lender, giving it additional security for its loan).  Such a change would require the lender's consent, and it has no reason to consent.  Your wife's ex could theoretically repay the car loan, possibly taking out a new loan on his own for that purpose, but he may not have the ability to do that, even if he wanted to.  Moreover, absent a court order (such as a judgment of divorce) or an agreement which requires the ex to get the loan transferred to his name alone, I don't think he is obligated to do so....

What are the laws on trading items (cellphone) and the other party is disputing.

Answered 11 years and 11 months ago by attorney Bruce Robins   |   1 Answer
Bruce Robins
I very much doubt that the police will get involved in this private civil dispute.  However, you have no control over whether the matter goes to court.  Unless the two of you can work out a resolution, the other party may decide to sue you.  That is his/her decision.  If what you say is believed by the Court (i.e. that your phone was in perfect working order when received by the other party), you should win the suit....

Can a car dealer sell a car over blue book vale if they do in house financing?

Answered 13 years and a month ago by attorney Bruce Robins   |   1 Answer
Bruce Robins
The car dealer can sell the car for any amount that you agree to pay (it has nothing to do with in house financing), unless they lie to you about some fact which causes you to buy the car.  If they told you that the blue book value of hte car was $9,000, you may have a claim for fraud (although there would be a question about whether you were reasonable in relying on their statement, which is an element of fraud), but they are not required to sell the car for blue book value....
