    Short Answer - You are on private property, and the complex is privately held. So they can do what the contract (lease) you signed alllows them to do. A lease is generally a contract that governs an interest in land. Which basically means that it defines the agreement between you and the landlord as to what your rights and obligations are. If when you signed your lease, your agreement with the landlord was free parking and a number of spots were allocated to you, then the landlord could...

    The Business license tax is a local tax by your jurisdiction. The legislature in thise jurisdictions have been granted the authority to determine how much tax, how it must be calculated, and how it is collected. The reason that you are required to pay the tax on the gross receipts you collect is because the legislature, who is a body that was elected by the people of your jurisdiction, has decided that this is how they want to calculate the tax. The best way to change this is to elect a...

    If this person was not just a guest and was actually a tenant, It will depend on whether you have a defined agreement. And If there is no defined agreement, the courts will look to create a tenancy period. The amount of notice will depend on what tenanacy term is ultimately decided. In most jurisdictions, this creates a periodic tenancy. A periodic tenancy is one which extends from period to period until the landlord or tenant give proper notice of termination. For example "month-to-month"....

    Most likely not. You would most likely be liable from 30 days from the date of notice and to the end of the month that the 30 days expired. For example if you gave notice February 14, you would be liable to March 31. Explanation: First of all, if your lease is valid, it will likely control. The lease is a contract presumably formed by two competent parties. It outlines the agreement between the parties; therefore Judges are hesitant to set aside what is spelled out in the document. So look...

    To answer your question, a vehicle could physically be inspected in one state and registered in another; however, it probably DOES NOT MEET the legal requirements of either jurisdiction. The officer was probably justified in stopping your vehicle to determine the nature of the discrepancies, and verify that you were in compliance with the applicable law. In Virginia all motor vehicles are required to be inspected unless it meets certain narrow exceptions. Additionally every day the vehicle is...

    The officer does not need to put a speed on a reckless driving charge. There are several different ways you can violate the Reckless Driving Statute. It is important that you look up the code section listed on the ticket to determine what you have been charged with, because this is a serious crime in the VA Code. Reckless Driving in Virginia is a class one misdemeanor, and therefore being charged with this violation should be taken very seriously. This is a criminal code violation, and the...
