Is a check tangible personal property?
Yes, a check is considered tangible personal property because it is a physical document that represents a monetary value. It can be touched and held, distinguishing it from intangible property like digital assets or intellectual property. While the value it represents is an obligation to pay, the check itself is a tangible item that can be transferred or deposited.
How do you prevent a right of way being established?
There are many types of "right of way", according to local laws and customs, and "prevention" will similarly vary.
For example, a municipality may take a right-of-way by the process of eminent domain so that a street or utility line can be run through private property (rarely preventable), or one owner may grant another a right-of-way to a neighbor for access (deeded or temporary), or the neighbor may acquire a permanent easement by prescription (i.e., open and continuous trespass beyond the statute of limitations).
The latter might be prevented by occasionally barring all access (thus disrupting the necessary continuity of the trespass), or perhaps by granting (and then revoking) a limited license to pass through (thus disrupting the legal basis of the trespass), either of which "restart the clock".
Local legal counsel can assist you with the particularities of whether the "barring" of access must be physical (fence/gate) or may be by merely posting signs (statutory size, wording, location, spacing interval, etc) or even posting legal notices in the locally circulating newspapers (statutory frequency, wording, etc).
A right of way can be established if it is used in a continuous, open, and actual way, under a claim of right and in an open and notorious way for a "prescriptive period". The prescriptive period varies from state to state but is usually about 20 years.
Bought the house now when do they send me the Title?
Practices and procedures vary from state to state. You should call the attorney who represented you at your closing and ask them what the procedure is in your state. Or, you can call the land records office where the deed was recorded and ask them how long it takes before you receive the original back in the mail.
No, and in many states you need to have other proof that your are a resident before you can obtain a license. For certain state requirements, say in-state tuition, there may be a residency requirement, but you are a resident of the state that you live in (most of the time). The driver's license can be used as evidence of that residency, but may not be conclusive, depending upon which agency rules you are required to follow.
yes but only if it was made before it was against the law to kill elephants. Or if it wasn't illegally sold to you.

What is a motion to vacate sale and certificate of title?
In New Jersey, a Foreclosure Sale does not necessarily mean the end of a homeowner's battle with their Lender / Loan Servicer. Besides a homeowners ten day redemption period. And some rights to file a bankruptcy during this period. (This is another topic of discussion, since the relief one can get post sale with a bankruptcy is somewhat limited.) There is also the potential to file a motion with the Chancery Division in the County your property sits, this motion is called a motion to vacate the sheriff's sale or sheriff's auction. It is important that this type of motion gets filed as quickly as possible. One must have a good reason for asking that their sale be vacated. One common reason is an sale that occurred while the homeowner was still negotiating a short sale or a loan modification with their lender and or loan servicer. This type of lender behavior might be deemed unscrupulous and therefore be the basis for vacating the sale.

You're in a tight spot. So is your dad. Honoring, respecting and obeying your dad are really important things to be able to do. It is very hard to know the right course of action when a parent is bringing up a young person. there's no guarantee that parents will be perfect (as if that has to be announced). But when you are faced with similar decisions, not many years from now, you'll have a better understanding of how important your respect for your dad really is. Hang in there; things are not always the way they seem to be. Until you are an adult, your parents have the ability to 'take' your paycheck. In many states, you can't get a job without a work permit, which requires both parents and school authority permissions. It is a tough position to be in! huffanpuff says not in my state .you can get a job at 16 and no one can legally take your pay check. Is you dad telling you to hand over pay check to him? Is he going to your job and tacking your check?

When an abandoned easement be regarded as terminated?
Generally, a right of easement lasts until the owner of the land benefitted by the easement signs a release and that release is recorded in the land records. Generally, the lack of use does not constitute an abandonment. Easements do not generally terminate unless there is some termination language in the original grant. Some action must be taken to obtain a court order terminating the easement.
The owner of the land must file a claim in the appropriate court requesting a court order to clear the land of the easement. The plaintiff must show compelling evidence that the easement has been abandoned, compelling enough for the court to extinguish the easement rights. That evidence would include a full title examination to show the history of the easement, evidence to show the owner of the easement was contacted and refused to release the easement and evidence the easement is no longer used and no longer needed.
This is a difficult case to bring to court. It should be handled by an attorney who specializes in real estate law and who has experience in this type of litigation. You should consult with an attorney in your area who can review your situation, examine the titles to the properties and determine what your options are. If the owner of the easement is a utility company, some companies will release the easement for a fee that covers the company's research into its own records.
The attorney may be able to contact the owner of the easement and negotiate a release without going to court. Requests from an attorney are more effective than a request from an individual.
If a creditor has won a judgment against you can they do a levy also?
The actions available to creditors with a judgment standing against a debtor is called garnishment. A creditor may garnish bank accounts and other financial investment accounts, and wages. In some states, creditors may also attach state income tax refunds. There are several states, however, that do not allow garnishment at all, and in those states, the judgment is worth about as much as the paper and ink used to print it.
AnswerYes. The levy is the next step after a creditor has won a judgment against you. Generally, the creditor must request a Writ of Execution from the court. That writ authorizes an officer of the court, usually a sheriff, to seize any property you own to satisfy the lien. The sheriff can freeze your bank accounts, take your car or record the execution in the land records to prevent any sale or refinance of your real property. If you have other property the creditor is aware of the sheriff can seize it too. The sheriff can sell your personal or real property under authority of the Writ of Execution. The only way for you to get your real estate back is to pay the outstanding debt and costs and with every step in that process those costs rise. The process is often referred to as a levy on execution.

Is Utah a community property state?
== == Utah is an 'equitable distribution of property' state. The courts can consider property that is generally considered separate property included into distribution to the non owning spouse.
