I hit a 1986 Toyota Corolla with a U-Haul moving truck 2 months ago. I was not covered under my husband's insurance at the time of the accident. The owner initially agreed to let me pay $100 a month for 12 months to cover the $1200 damage, but now the nephew claims to be the owner and is threatening to take me to court if I don't pay the full amount within 2 weeks. I'm in Illinois Cook County. What should I do, and can the judge put a hit and run on my record if we go to court?

In this situation, you are legally obligated to pay the original owner of the vehicle for the damage...

Can my wife and I, as co-owners of a house, sign a rental agreement without the consent of a third co-owner who is out of state and has not been involved in the property for years? Additionally, if we want to do a Lease/Option arrangement with two separate contracts, would we need the third owner's signature for the option agreement?

Is jewelry design copyright only protected for the image and not the process of turning the image into a product? If our design is not entirely the same as another, and we use different materials, are we still at risk of copyright infringement?

Can you explain MCR(###) ###-####(2)(d) and how it relates to a situation where I made a declaration in court that the other side filed into the register of deed per a court order? Specifically, I transferred property via a Quit Claim deed for a $100 consideration, but the court voided the deed based on my statement that no money was exchanged. The other side has filed the court order with the register of deeds to override the Quit Claim. How does the unsworn declaration impact the validity of the deed, and what steps should I take to address this situation?
