Can car dealer repossess the car and ship away before deadline date?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I do not understand your question. What "deadline date" do you mean? If there is a loan on a car and the payments have not been made, then the car can be repossessed. Anything beyond that, more information would be needed from you.

Can a codicil be admitted without the will it references?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
No, unless the codicil is in fact a will, and has all of the legal attributes required of a will the document may be inappropriately titled or mislabeled. Seek out a experienced probate lawyer to assist you; these are not easy cases. And keep on looking for the will referred to, including to see if a lawyer or paralegal was involved in assisting the preparation of the will, as they may have information to assist you. Also, was there a lawyer or paralegal involved in the preparation of the alleged codicil? Lost wills have been found in woodsheds, workshop, and other unusual places. So think like your father, and see if you may come up with an answer to your quandary as to the alleged will of 2011.

Can a person take the ring back after ten years?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
A gift is completed if there is donative intent and delivery. She wanted you to have it, and gave it to you, so I think this is a completed gift. Furthermore, if you were to give it back, you would have to have work done to your wedding ring. If you sister is very wealth, and very litigious, I'm sure she could find somebody to try a lawsuit for the return of the ring. And it would be a very interesting lawsuit.
