I need to appeal a judge's decision in Florida where the judge denied my 1.540 motion arguing that part of a child support order is void. The order awarded zero child support to either party despite a finding that the other party owed me $300.20 per month. My 1.540 motion was denied, and I am unsure whether to appeal the denial of the 1.540 motion or the child support order itself. Additionally, I am concerned about the cost of obtaining hearing transcripts and how to cite relevant pages in my appellate brief.

My fiancé has a general contractor license and worked on a remodel job for about 5 months, completing it in August. The invoice total is over $7000, but the client won't pay and has stopped all communication. The client has already sold the house, and part of the sale is owner-financed, meaning she still has an interest in the property. We have tried to communicate through calls, letters, and texts, but all attempts have been unsuccessful. We are in Washington state and are wondering what our legal options are to recover the payment.

In an appellate review, the lower tribunal awarded no child support despite a finding that the former wife owed child support. Additionally, the calculation of child support was incorrect due to the use of a different number of overnight stays than what was ordered. What is the standard of review for these issues, and does the child support award go retroactive to the date of filing a supplemental petition to modify the final judgment?

I won an online storage auction and believed I had purchased a motorcycle featured in the auction photos. However, after winning, I noticed a small print stating the motorcycle was not included. Despite this, the storage facility employee who took the photos and opened the unit for us mistakenly believed the bike was included. We took the motorcycle home, but the storage manager later told us we couldn't take it. Now, I'm concerned about potential legal issues and want to know what steps to take, including whether I should return the motorcycle and seek compensation for the costs and inconvenience caused by the misunderstanding.
