How do you remove lien from vehicles?

Do you have to pay condo fees if condo does not follow guide lines?

Yes.

Apparently, your question implies that using your leverage by not paying your assessments will change the behaviour of the board. This is not a valid assumption.

Read your governing documents to better understand your options.

Your monthly assessments pay the bills for operating the community. The bills may include basic utilities, maintenance and upkeep of the buildings and the grounds, master insurance policy premium payments and contributions to your reserve accounts.

If you don't pay your assessments, your association can pursue you to recover the debt, and may file a lien on your title, deny you services or access to amenities, or as a last resort, sell your unit to recover the money you owe.

Your board is legally liable under the laws of your state to operate your (non-profit) corporation and govern your private democracy according to the guidelines written in your governing documents.

Attend board meetings and be prepared to identify specific sections of your CC&Rs, By-laws and Board Resolutions that your board violates. Then, write a letter to the board pointing out their violation and request that the matter be handed at the next board meeting.

At the subsequent board meeting, request that the board vote to either operate according to the guidelines, or continue to operate in violation of them. Request that the vote be taken and recorded in the minutes.

This way, you'll begin to build a paper trail of the board's violations. Most board members soon realize the gravity of their violations and begin following the guidelines. Otherwise, you can rally similarly affected owners and by way of a vote of owners -- your governing documents state the percentage required -- remove the board and vote new members into the positions.

A lien can be filed without the necessity of a lawsuit judgment only if it pertains to work done on the debtor's property, such as improvement of a structure or repairs on a vehicle. Such liens are referred to as Mechanic Liens.

The party wishing to partake in such action can file in his or her own county and if the lien is found to be valid it will be attached to the property designated even if that property is not located in the same jurisdiction. Such action is known as a "foreign judgment/lien".

Although court clerks can supply the necessary forms and other general information relating to how to file the complaint they cannot assist the person in any other manner. They cannot offer advice or opinion on the matter in question.

Can a lien be placed against a property which is in tenancy of the entirety but the judgment is against the husband only?

No. If the property has always been in wife's name then it cannot be encumbered by a creditor of the husband. However, if the property was recently transferred by the husband and wife to the wife then the creditor may claim the transfer was a fraudulent conveyance and lacking any or significant consideration was made for the purposes of protecting the property from a creditor. A fraudulent conveyance will not protect the property from the husband's debt and may cause further problems.

It would be best to visit in person and ask the staff to help you check your name in the land records. Any liens will be filed under your name.

How long does the homeowner have before a contractor can file a lien against your home?

It depends on the laws of the jurisdiction in which the homeowner's association is organized.

Another Answer

The time delay depends on why the association wants to file and lien, and against what property title.

When the association wants to cloud the title to a property owned by someone who is in arrears for paying assessments, the time is defined in your governing documents.

Filing a lien, however, is one of the last actions that the association may take. The final action being foreclosure on the home, to sell it in order to collect past due amounts.

Finally, you are best advised to work with your association's association-savvy attorney, to insure that the correct lien for the correct amount is filed properly in order to protect the association.

The simple answer to this question yes and no.

Is VA Compensation supposed to be used by the court to do child support?

No.

Is VA Compensation the same as disability?

No, this mistake is common because a disability is an eligibility requirement. If you are hit by a car, the insurance company will pay the medical and costs to fix your car in restitution for the accident. It is also not a benefit. You wouldn't call a military funeral a benefit. Benefits are things like reduced camping fees. VA Compensation is restitution.

Is it legal to use VA Compensation for Spousal Support?

No, both the cases of Mansell v Mansell and Rose v Rose demonstrate it was excluded for spousal support. However you have to go back to the Tennessee Court of Appeal to see they overruled the lower court on the spousal support. The Supreme Court applauded and agreed to their interpretation on page 481 at 625. Justice O'Connor provided a dissenting opinion to this matter but prefaced this opinion by stating the other 7 justices disdain her opinion. When the US Congress responded to the case with the Department of Veterans Affairs Act of 1988 they made no change to the section 3101 she identified when it was made 5301. It has gone unchanged since 1988. In not so subtle words, telling her Congress disdains the opinion as well.

Is it legal for the COURT to use VA Compensation for Child Support?

Tricky answer. Prior to the Rose v Rose case of 1987 the Veterans Administration was failing to do its job by spitting the payments when a dependent was not living with the veteran. This is what the Rose v Rose case was about. The US Supreme Court ruled under the existing language of 38 USC 211 the states had the "deep moral" responsibility of assuming this federal authority. The Federal Government had just enacted the Child Support Enforcement Act taking Authority over the establishment and enforcement of Child Support. This act dictates policy and oversees the programs administrated by the states. The basic understanding here is the states were essentially required to act in the failure of the Veterans Administration. From 1975 to 1987 the answer is yes.

From 1988 to present the answer is no. The US Congress responded to this case by firing the Veterans Administration. They enacted the Department of Veterans Affairs Act of 1988 and completely rewrote Title 38 in its entirety.

38 USC § 211 - 1987

"The decisions rendered by the Administrator on any question of law or fact under any law administered by the Veterans' Administration providing benefits for veterans."

38 USC § 511 - 1988

"The Secretary shall decide all questions of law and fact necessary to a decision by the Secretary under a law that affects the provision of benefits by the Secretary to veterans or the dependents or survivors of veterans. Subject to subsection (b)(Appeals Processes), the decision of the Secretary as to any such question shall be final and conclusive and may not be reviewed by any other official or by any court, whether by an action in the nature of mandamus or otherwise."

This response of Congress declared Sole Authority for the new department and obligates the USDVA to divide the compensation through apportionment for dependents.

Is it legal for the Department of Veterans Affairs to divide VA Compensation?

Yes, the new USDVA is now currently paying on over 30,000 cases of apportionment for those that properly follow the legal process.

The correct course of law is not to go to court to divide the VA Compensation. That would be like asking them to split up a food stamp card. You would go back to the Food Stamp office and update your information and get separate card. For VA Apportionment it is very similar and legally called an Apportionment.

When a person separates from a Veteran, they need to go to a Veteran Services office and request help completing VA Form 21-4138. A spouse can apply for benefit apportionment for themselves until a divorce is complete and any children in their custody. During the divorce you are still the spouse and a dependent. Once a final divorce decree is made, only children will remain as dependents.

The parent or guardian needs to have the State Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) complete a copy of vba-21-4138. The OCSE should complete the form. They need to specifically state how much child support is awarded based on NOT including any payments under Title 38. They also need to specifically identify a monetary amount for the "NEED" of the child. This can be either the state standard or based on special needs as long as documentation is provided. The USDVA needs this to see the exact amount needed to fill the gap. Any conditions of abuse or other factors of the child's life should be included with documentation. These will also be taken into consideration.

Can a condo assoc forclose on a unit?

By filing liens against the owner(s) of the unit. If the liens go unpaid, the association can foreclose on the unit and sell it in order to satisfy the liens.

More Detail

Owner(s) ignore these initial notices at their peril.

Can a person place a lien on their own property to protect it from creditors?

No, such an action is not possible, and even if it were it would not protect the person's property from creditor action. Personal and real property belonging to a debtor are protected from creditor attachment to the extent provided by the laws of the debtor's state. The exemptions that can be used to protect specific property against a judgment creditor are the same ones that are used when filing bankruptcy and in certain circumstances federal non-bankruptcy exemptions can be used as well.

If you owe back child support can you get a home loan?

Yes! my husband owed over 20K in arrears to the State he however has good credit (hard to believe but true) and has a good employement history. He qualified for a FHA loan and we closed on our first home last year. Throughout the loan process you will be discouraged and sometime denied because of the arrear on your credit but it all depends on who your broker is. I would not go straight to a big bank and apply for a loan but if you are current on your cs payments and owe arrears but have good credit and a decent debt to income ratio if it worked for us then it will work for you...We live in California.

Another Perspective

A custodial parent who is owed arrears should follow through with Child Support Enforcement and obtain a Child Support Lien that can be recorded in the land records. Once the lien has been recorded a lender will require the arrears be paid off by the obligor and the lien released before it will loan mortgage funds. The laws may vary from state to state.

Can a towing company auction a vehicle without notice?

only if they have a lien on the the title for any service that you have not paid for. its called a mechanics lien.

Even if they have a mechanics lien, they still have to notify the registered owner via certified mail, and give them a chance to pay the bill. You can't just get a title or magistrate's bill of sale without proof that you have done everything possible to contact the owner first. The owner has 30 days to contact the person that has the vehicle. If they don't, then the vehicle can be sold at a magistrates auction and will be given a title for the vehicle.
