We owned a house during the marriage and when we divorced he agreed to pay me $100 a month until my half of the value was reached. Now he is deeply in debt and wants to get a home equity loan, but he says I must quit claim for him to be able to do this. I DO NOT want to be paid off in a lump sum, as this will affect other benefits of mine. He says he can quit claim my name back on the deed after his loan goes through. Is this legit?

I'm always amazed how history repeats. The first Pro-Choice movement in the southern states in the 1840-1850's was amazingly the same argument the abortionist uses today: It's acceptable to own a slave..after all it's just a black person. The speaker of the house said: I personally don't own a slave but I would never want to stop another from the free choice of owning slaves. The pro-abortionist say it's ok to murder children..after all it's only a fetus. Many say I wouldn't want an aboration but I don't want to tell other what to do..it's up to them not me. I believe one day children will learn of aboration and be in disbelief that at a time in history it was legal to murder babies..and they called it a choice...just as we look back in horror that another could own another human being..both shocking..both wrong beyond belief..but we allow it in the name of choice. BOTH are really one thing...a lowering of human value! Salvery/Aboration..wrong then and now.
I'd like to hear your views

Why is it that a homeowner "has" to have a fence errected around a swimming pool on their property? I understand the issue about keeping kids safe, but what if I don't have kids?

Why should I have to alter my property when someone doesn't belong on it without my permission in the first place?

Furthermore, where are the parents of young kids that sometime wander off? They should get their kids taken away by child protection for improper supervision.

This is just the same as if I had something else dangerous on my property (ie...power tools), so why do I have to HAVE a fence for a pool, but not the other items...

I am looking for homeowners who live on the property to answer this, not those who rent the properties.

i'm not sure if i have what it takes to be an attorney. I'm intelliegent, can speak eloquently, don't mind hard work. However, I'm generally a very nice, non-argumentive type of person. I don't mind taking charge but prefer not to argue with people. I'm just wondering what people have to say? It would be great if you or someone you know is a lawyer & can describe their personality.

This topic came up in a message board to which I subscribe. A woman got into an argument with her bf over a site that was saved on his computer Favorites, she signed into his email account using 'his usual ID and password" and read some suspicious emails. She feels her search is legitmate since he at some point had shared his ID and password and since in her words "If he has nothing to hide then he has nothing to worry about". I know if she were to open a written letter addressed to him without his permission, it's a felony. What about this instance - Is it illegal to open another person's email without their expressed permission?

When I see some of the opinions based on Iraq, and how they are fuelled by Bush hatred, and at the same time, anything that Clinton did is put down by their hatred of him, I got a cool question to post:

Would the hypocrites out there, Leftie and Rightie alike, have any new opinion of the war had it been during the Clinton presidency? Would the "anti-Americans" support it, and would the "sheep" be against it all of a sudden? Also, would the conservatives be as quick to preach impeachment if "Swallow the Leader" had been played with Bush or Bush Senior?

This is going to be fun...

If your job requires you to get a degree, that they are paying for, does the employer also have to pay the employee for the time they attend those college classes?

Had counters installed. We agreed to a set price with the contractor. We signed bid showing this price. We paid for the counters upon completion and now contractor wants $560.00 more for extra hours worked. At no point durring installation process did he bring up these extra hours or explain he would need even more money. Is this common practice? Do we have to pay? If we agreed to have him do this job for a set price is it our fault it took him longer and are we obligated to pay this additional amount? If this is the case every contractor could do this and always bank on additional money. No contract was signed only the original bid for work. thanks for any help.
