In 2012, I signed a lease for a home for 1 year at $2600.00 per month. I have been paying $2700.00 per month since August 2012, and we never signed another rental agreement. Now, the landlord wants to increase the rent to $3500.00 per month. I have overpaid approximately $7900.00 so far. Am I entitled to my money back on overpayment?

One Board member is causing significant issues in our HOA, including releasing executive Board minutes to a local newspaper, defaming my character on social media, and making false accusations of theft without proof. He has also attempted to access community bank accounts and is creating chaos at meetings. Our HOA attorney is reluctant to send him a letter. Can we remove him from the board, and what steps can we take to address his behavior?

I was involved in a car crash caused by a reckless driver in Tennessee. The driver was cited for reckless driving, unregistered vehicle, and no insurance, but I don't know if a court date was set. Can the driver just pay fines and avoid court, and if not, how can I ensure he faces court and potentially jail time for his actions?

I am trying to get my case dismissed from court. I filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss, and the respondent offered me $150. I agreed to the offer, and the respondent sent me a Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice and on the Merits document. However, now they are asking me to sign a settlement agreement before sending the check. Is it necessary for me to sign the settlement agreement, or can I request the original plan of giving written permission to e-sign the Stipulation of Dismissal once I receive my check?
