Allstate deposited ~$20k to my bank account as a claims payment. It isn’t mine. Bank won’t reverse it, and Allstate doesn’t know why it was deposited but wants me to give them my account and routing #s to authorize them to pull it back. That seems wrong to me. What should I do? It seems risky to provide my bank details to Allstate to authorize them to “pull it back” because what if the original transaction subsequently gets reversed? Then I would be in the negative for authorizing them to pull funds that already got reversed. They are saying though that they can’t pull back the funds themselves because they don’t know the account they went to- that it was likely done by an Allstate customer fat-fingering account info when trying to transfer their claims payment off their claims debit card into their bank account. My current stance is that I will not give them my bank details and that they (and their customer) need to figure it out and reverse the initial transaction, and until then the $20k will sit untouched where it is. But they tell me that is stealing and will result in legal action being taken against me. What should I be doing? I’m obviously not trying to keep the money and not going to move the money or otherwise touch it, I just don’t want to initiate a transaction to move money that shouldn’t exist in the first place.

If you have a major bank, they have an ACH department that can process a reversal for you. ACH departments are notorious for being hard to contact, even for other bank employees. That money is eventually coming back out of your account, so it's in your best interest to try and contact them. I'd go the route of customer service again but ask to speak with a manager. This is probably too complex for whomever first answers the phone.

If Allstate is like my company they might be able to find the claim and records of how it was paid using the payment number. Claim numbers are also frequently noted on payments too. Try get that from your bank and provide that instead.

This is between Allstate and the bank. The bank has to correct this. YOU should not have to give Allstate your bank account info, and they are sketchy for asking you for it. I would refuse. Ask for the bank’s manager to investigate and correct the error. It’s their job.

Allstate sent the funds to your bank. That means they (or their bank) already has your account info. I’d tell them that it’s their responsibility to get their bank to recall the wire or reverse the ACH. Not your responsibility to provide them with your bank info.

My dog was attacked by another dog with over 2.5k in vet bills. Neighbors tell a poverty sob story about not being able to eat, next month they have a 40k new car. So about a month ago my dog was attacked by some neighborhood dogs. The two dogs were off leash and jumped a fence, and attacked my dog until they were pulled off by me and the property owner. The owner offered to pay for bills but said the dogs didn't belong to him, but his fiancee. After talking to the fiancee it seemed like they were in pretty bad shape for money. My neighborhood is pretty low income so I believed this. They talked about living off a single teacher salary and disability and skipping food to pay for vet bills. Like a big softie I fell for this and only asked them to pay for the first two vet bills ~1k. They only paid for half but because I felt bad I didn't pursue it. After 3 weeks of ICU care my dog is ok but vet bills end up being 2.5k not including the first payment they made. Realistically this money won't ruin my life, but it certainly isn't insignificant. But I don't want someone to not eat for vet bills. Then I happened to drive by the house (not walking that way anymore due to fear of the dogs) and there is a brand new car worth 36k minimum base model parked in the driveway. I am fricken pissed. I live in the US in a state where they are liable for dog bites. I did not report them to animal control because they said they were rehoming the dogs (they didn't) but I did report them to the HOA. I am concerned about revenge as we can't leave, and also that maybe the fiancee is in an abusive relationship. Not sure what to do anymore. I have texts admitting their fault and that they will pay for bills. I've never had to do anything with a court before and I'm not sure what to do. Please help! Thanks!

> So about a month ago The good news is you're well within the statute of limitations. You can ask them to pay the rest of the vet bills, and if they don't, you can take them to small claims court. It's not too late to report them to animal control, either. Someone who lets two dogs off leash get out and use Fido for a chew toy once are probably likely to do it again. > They talked about ... skipping food to pay for vet bills. Also no one with a smart phone ever willingly goes hungry. There are soup kitchens most places and food pantries everywhere. You got taken.

Be tough on them. It’s sad that it was your dog the first time but thankfully pup is okay. If it was worse—or someone’s child, I am sure you would feel terrible if you didn’t report it. These people are irresponsible and awful to take advantage of you and your kindness.

Never go lax, ppl lie. Snap shot of their dog and their license, and person and report it. Record everything between you & parties. We have had a lot issues here VA with POS like this and always report. Small Claims court.

Go with prevention. Imagine waking up one morning to a news story that the same dogs jumped over a fence and killed a child. Do whatever you need to do to make sure that doesn't happen.
|
File report with animal control. Contact their home owner's insurance or contact yours to go after them. Don't let them get off easy. Next time dogs attack, might be a lot worse outcome and how will you feel then?

- if you call animal control they write up a document and the attack will be on file - idk if they can do this now but since the dogs were off leash and jumped on to your property they could be hit with a hefty fine depending on your leash laws. - animal control will either go pick up the dogs or snail mail/call saying they have a report and a quarantine period is mandatory (rabies) - they can either take their dogs to their vet or animal control for 10 days quarantine —- however, it’s been a month so by now they may deem it not necessary - with evidence of vet records they may put the case in front of a judge but highly unlikely. - from my personal experience with animal control and my own dog attack onto me, unless a child was killed or human disfigurement happens animal control doesn’t really give a F. However, I have been told different counties have better or worse animal control people. More likely , the attack will be placed on record the dogs 3 strike is when they will do something about it. - then do what people above have said and file a claim with homeowners insurance. Let insurance companies duke it out who pays what. - the owners of their dogs will be contacted. Their insurance rates will increase (Justly so) for a longer period of time. Insurance doesn’t like to loose money. - Do not engage with homeowners and don’t feel sorry for them. They shouldn’t have dogs if they can not handle the responsibility even if they can’t afford to eat. A even better reason to report them and file a claim to relieve them of that burden. - if you want to take them to civil court that is fine to but hire a lawyer - if they ever approach you asking why you filed a claim in homeowners insurance say you knew they couldn’t afford it and that’s why homeowners insurance is there to protect (when really it is for when the owner makes stupid mistakes. - they will think twice about breaking rules again - incase of revenge, buy a camera security system for you back yard and front of your house. You can get it on camera now. Edit: correcting an autocorrect Edit additional thoughts

So about a month ago my dog was attacked by some neighborhood dogs. The two dogs were off leash and jumped a fence, and attacked my dog until they were pulled off by me and the property owner. The owner offered to pay for bills but said the dogs didn't belong to him, but his fiancee. After talking to the fiancee it seemed like they were in pretty bad shape for money. My neighborhood is pretty low income so I believed this. They talked about living off a single teacher salary and disability and skipping food to pay for vet bills. Like a big softie I fell for this and only asked them to pay for the first two vet bills ~1k. They only paid for half but because I felt bad I didn't pursue it. After 3 weeks of ICU care my dog is ok but vet bills end up being 2.5k not including the first payment they made. Realistically this money won't ruin my life, but it certainly isn't insignificant. But I don't want someone to not eat for vet bills. Then I happened to drive by the house (not walking that way anymore due to fear of the dogs) and there is a brand new car worth 36k minimum base model parked in the driveway. I am fricken pissed. I live in the US in a state where they are liable for dog bites. I did not report them to animal control because they said they were rehoming the dogs (they didn't) but I did report them to the HOA. I am concerned about revenge as we can't leave, and also that maybe the fiancee is in an abusive relationship. Not sure what to do anymore. I have texts admitting their fault and that they will pay for bills. I've never had to do anything with a court before and I'm not sure what to do. Please help! Thanks!

So anon-report them to Animal Control: dangerous dog, fence too low, unleashed. If you want to be nasty, anon report them for barking dog. You accepted their sob story, understandable. They may have snow-job'ed you, but you accepted it. That's on you. Now you know they can't be trusted.

- if you call animal control they write up a document and the attack will be on file - idk if they can do this now but since the dogs were off leash and jumped on to your property they could be hit with a hefty fine depending on your leash laws. - animal control will either go pick up the dogs or snail mail/call saying they have a report and a quarantine period is mandatory (rabies) - they can either take their dogs to their vet or animal control for 10 days quarantine —- however, it’s been a month so by now they may deem it not necessary - with evidence of vet records they may put the case in front of a judge but highly unlikely. - from my personal experience with animal control and my own dog attack onto me, unless a child was killed or human disfigurement happens animal control doesn’t really give a F. However, I have been told different counties have better or worse animal control people. More likely , the attack will be placed on record the dogs 3 strike is when they will do something about it. - then do what people above have said and file a claim with homeowners insurance. Let insurance companies duke it out who pays what. - the owners of their dogs will be contacted. Their insurance rates will increase (Justly so) for a longer period of time. Insurance doesn’t like to loose money. - Do not engage with homeowners and don’t feel sorry for them. They shouldn’t have dogs if they can not handle the responsibility even if they can’t afford to eat. A even better reason to report them and file a claim to relieve them of that burden. - if you want to take them to civil court that is fine to but hire a lawyer - if they ever approach you asking why you filed a claim in homeowners insurance say you knew they couldn’t afford it and that’s why homeowners insurance is there to protect (when really it is for when the owner makes stupid mistakes. - they will think twice about breaking rules again - incase of revenge, buy a camera security system for you back yard and front of your house. You can get it on camera now. Edit: correcting an autocorrect Edit additional thoughts

Not a lawyer but I did sell cars. Just because they are driving/ parking a new car at their house by no way means they OWN it or even that the loan for the car has even gone through.

You do realize that just because a car is parked in their driveway...doesnt mean they own it. Coupd be a family members car, or a friends, or them being nice neighbors and letting a nekghbor park there...

I had almost the exact same situation happen to me and what worked was threatening to post the photos of the damage to my dog on social media. Public servants need to maintain a good public image, so posting such accusations directly attacks their livelihood, so to speak. The guy in question was also a teacher, oddly enough. You should of called animal control though. It helped my case to prove the other guy was cited by the city while I was not.

Always call the cops and place a police report. Always call animal control and place a report. Get everything on record. Always. Protect yourself first. End minor rant.

Not a lawyer, but you need to stop taking their word on things and file reports on those dogs.

Regardless of their getting loan (I’m assuming) for new car & claiming to leave hand to mouth is frankly none of your business and concern. Because neither are relevant to the serious damage done by their dog to yours. You have a legitimate legal claim. If the attacking dogs were off-leash the owners are incredibly liable for damages as owners are responsible for having animals 100% under control at all times (and voice control doesn’t count as control). Even though you can expect whining (legitimate or not) take the matter to small claims armed with: 1). Any fact witnesses who saw the attack (if they exist) 2). All documentation from vet including injuries and costs 3). Acknowledge agreement (and whether it was verbal or written, with written copy ready to be provided to court), & what amount they paid when determining amount being requested 4). If agreement is in the form of a series of text messages and you plan to bring screenshots as evidence, include something above the text & below the text (if anything) to prove nothing has been conveniently left out 5). If you are still agreeable to a payment plan, let that made known new/ caveat that given their failure to keep their side of the bargain be a reason you need the court’s assistance; the court may order a plan that recognizes the defendants financial situation 6). Don’t get into weeds over the new car 7). If you suffer revenge, these are additional actions for which you can sue over; in frankness if you’ve not yet invested in exterior security lights or cameras it may be a prudent idea just to have additional evidence if something done when asleep or away 8). As heartless as it sounds, much like their financial status or new car - the potential reality of an abused domestic partner is irrelevant to your claim & damages; it is not your role to protect that person beyond encouraging them to contact the police or seek a domestic violence shelter (you can, however, call the police if there is a significant incident that is causing a disruption to public peace)

If you suffer revenge, these are additional actions for which you can sue over; in frankness if you’ve not yet invested in exterior security lights or cameras it may be a prudent idea just to have additional evidence if something done when asleep or away 8). As heartless as it sounds, much like their financial status or new car - the potential reality of an abused domestic partner is irrelevant to your claim & damages; it is not your role to protect that person beyond encouraging them to contact the police or seek a domestic violence shelter (you can, however, call the police if there is a significant incident that is causing a disruption to public peace)

Not a lawyer, but you need to stop taking their word on things and file reports on those dogs.

My dog was attacked by another dog with over 2.5k in vet bills. Neighbors tell a poverty sob story about not being able to eat, next month they have a 40k new car. So about a month ago my dog was attacked by some neighborhood dogs. The two dogs were off leash and jumped a fence, and attacked my dog until they were pulled off by me and the property owner. The owner offered to pay for bills but said the dogs didn't belong to him, but his fiancee. After talking to the fiancee it seemed like they were in pretty bad shape for money. My neighborhood is pretty low income so I believed this. They talked about living off a single teacher salary and disability and skipping food to pay for vet bills. Like a big softie I fell for this and only asked them to pay for the first two vet bills ~1k. They only paid for half but because I felt bad I didn't pursue it. After 3 weeks of ICU care my dog is ok but vet bills end up being 2.5k not including the first payment they made. Realistically this money won't ruin my life, but it certainly isn't insignificant. But I don't want someone to not eat for vet bills. Then I happened to drive by the house (not walking that way anymore due to fear of the dogs) and there is a brand new car worth 36k minimum base model parked in the driveway. I am fricken pissed. I live in the US in a state where they are liable for dog bites. I did not report them to animal control because they said they were rehoming the dogs (they didn't) but I did report them to the HOA. I am concerned about revenge as we can't leave, and also that maybe the fiancee is in an abusive relationship. Not sure what to do anymore. I have texts admitting their fault and that they will pay for bills. I've never had to do anything with a court before and I'm not sure what to do. Please help! Thanks!

Always call the cops and place a police report. Always call animal control and place a report. Get everything on record. Always. Protect yourself first. End minor rant.
|
I had almost the exact same situation happen to me and what worked was threatening to post the photos of the damage to my dog on social media. Public servants need to maintain a good public image, so posting such accusations directly attacks their livelihood, so to speak. The guy in question was also a teacher, oddly enough. You should of called animal control though. It helped my case to prove the other guy was cited by the city while I was not.

I was bit today by a neighbors dog, are they liable for my medical bills? A couple hours ago I (21F) was roller skating and bit by a neighbors dog. I don't know them or the dog, the guy was nice and stuck around while I waited for my dad to pick me up. He doesn't know if his dog has vaccinations, and he didn't have a vet's office he could call so I'm assuming the dog hasn't had any shots. I'm at urgent care right now but I don't have insurance so I had to pay $227 upfront just to be seen today. Is this guy liable for my medical bills? His dog wasn't leashed, he just ran out into the road and bit me. If he is liable, how do I go about getting that money from him? I really, really don't have the money or time and energy to get a lawyer and go through all of that but if we have to I'll do it.

You need to contact animal control. If that dog doesn't have his shots they will quarantine him for around 10 days to make sure he isn't carrying something that could make you sick. Go with you dad and knock on neighbor's door and present them with a copy of your medical bills asking them to pay them. If they refuse then you can take them to small claims court. Small claims is cheap and easy for you to do. You don't need a lawyer just your medical records and all your notes that neighbor refused to pay your bills after his dog bit you etc.
|
You can submit your medical bills to him/his homeowners insurance policy to reimburse you. You may also be able to recover what are known as non-economic damages (such as pain and suffering). You could very likely find an attorney to meet with you for free to discuss your case, and would also be able to hire them on a contingent basis (“no fee unless you win”).

Maybe try talking to your neighbor first and asking? Maybe he will be ok with paying you back instead and dealing with a headache of lawyers, back and forth etc

(OREGON) My dog (10lb deaf dachshund) was nearly killed by my neighbors dog (70lb pit bull). My 10 pound dachshund was mauled by a very large pit bull owned by my neighbors. They say the attack happened on THEIR property when my dog wandered over, when I got to the scene, my dog was on mine (gravely injured) and the owner was very close by holding the pit by the collar (the pit was not chained, and there is no fence. His injuries were life threatening, and he had to have life saving surgery. He is still in the vet hospital. The bills are over $6,000 and growing. Do we have a case if our little dog (possibly) wandered over there and got torn up, or are we SOL for the vet bills? We don’t want to start a war with the neighbors, but we don’t have the impression right now that they’re going to offer to pay for anything.

It really would depend where the attack occurred. If your dog did wander into their yard then they probably aren't liable, especially since they're your next door neighbor and you (presumably) were aware that they own a large dog. They don't have to chain up their dog in their own yard, just like you didn't chain up yours, so it really does depend where this took place. If their dog came into your yard, then it's a different story. They would probably be liable for the attack in that circumstance. You could see if any nearby neighbors have a doorbell camera or something that may be able to show what actually happened.
|
Maybe, but Oregon has negligence per se for violating an ordinance prohibiting dogs from running at large, which it sounds like your dog may have been doing.

Neighbor had 10+ pitbulls that are eating our fence open and attacking our dogs Hi, I live in douglasville Georgia. Recently my neighbors dogs have been chewing up our fence and getting over to our back yard. We saw 4 aggressive pit bulls attacking our dogs (we have 1 small breed and 2 medium) but when confronting them about it my wife and I noticed they have what looks like an entire breeding scheme going on. The fence is our landlords and it was in perfect condition before these incidents but now there are multiple holes that have been chewed into it with the largest one being the size of an adults head. My youngest dog was limping after we found the 4 of them in our yard and just now one of them reached through and bit another one of our dogs faces. We have a 2 month old baby and I am what you would call a very constitutional southern man yet still I always try to avoid the nuclear option. I love dogs and I don't want to shoot them dead but they are becoming a danger to my family and property. What can I do to resolve this before it reaches a bad ending?

Call your local animal control and report them.
|
Call animal control. Some places actually have a limit on how many pets you can have in a household. Quick google search shows that if you have 6+ animals in Georgia, you need to have a hobby/ kennel permit or license. I’m no expert but your local animal control should have the information on this.

First I wouldn’t be letting your animals out into your backyard. Second I would contact your landlord and let him know that the fence has been damaged by the neighbors dogs and see how he wants to proceed with that. Third I would be contacting animal control. If you look up your cities ordinances there are several that it appears that these animals would fall under. Nuisance: An animal shall be considered a nuisance if it: a. Damages, soils, defiles or defecates on private property (other than the property of the owner of the animal), or public property and recreational areas; b. Causes unsanitary, dangerous or offensive conditions; c. Causes a disturbance by excessive barking or other noisemaking; d. Molests, attacks or interferes with persons on public or private property, unless the animal is a guard dog actively performing its duties while confined to the property of the owner or responsible person; or e. Chases vehicles or attacks other animals. https://library.municode.com/ga/douglasville/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=PTIICO_CH18AN If you don’t wanna call animal control you can also call your local police department not emergency number and file a complaint. If any of your pets are injured make sure that you’re taking them to the vet afterwards. This gives you documentation as well as evidence of the attack. Also getting cameras for your backyard is not a half bad idea. This would allow for you to record what’s going on in your backyard. Best of luck.

I’m Douglasville too! I’m telling you right now, call a Lomas control to document this. Of it isn’t documented and those dogs hurt or kill another animal or person you’ll look like an idiot for saying “this happened before”. The first thing anyone will want to know is why didn’t you document it. I had the same thing happen to me so the first thing I did was call animal control. The neighbors were pissed but at that point it didn’t matter. DOCUMENT THIS!
|
Do you have documentation/evidence/photos of the prior condition of the fence? It would probably be a good idea to contact your landlord to inform him of the current issue lest you be left holding the bag for repairs down the road. Do you have bills for your vet visits? If you have video evidence of the dogs aggressive behaviour you can also sue them in small claims for the cost of the hospital visits.

I'm absolutely a dog person too, who would make sure I had camera angles of the dogs coming into my yard and then go with the nuclear option. It's sad and isn't their fault but it also isn't yours... But your family is. A pack of feral dogs is a threat to everyone, including you.

If they recently moved in, and if this persists, you might want to take them to court for nuisance. I would check this out with an attorney.

Second I would contact your landlord and let him know that the fence has been damaged by the neighbors dogs and see how he wants to proceed with that. Third I would be contacting animal control. If you look up your cities ordinances there are several that it appears that these animals would fall under. Nuisance: An animal shall be considered a nuisance if it: a. Damages, soils, defiles or defecates on private property (other than the property of the owner of the animal), or public property and recreational areas; b. Causes unsanitary, dangerous or offensive conditions; c. Causes a disturbance by excessive barking or other noisemaking; d. Molests, attacks or interferes with persons on public or private property, unless the animal is a guard dog actively performing its duties while confined to the property of the owner or responsible person; or e. Chases vehicles or attacks other animals. https://library.municode.com/ga/douglasville/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=PTIICO_CH18AN If you don’t wanna call animal control you can also call your local police department not emergency number and file a complaint. If any of your pets are injured make sure that you’re taking them to the vet afterwards. This gives you documentation as well as evidence of the attack. Also getting cameras for your backyard is not a half bad idea. This would allow for you to record what’s going on in your backyard. Best of luck.

Neighbor had 10+ pitbulls that are eating our fence open and attacking our dogs Hi, I live in douglasville Georgia. Recently my neighbors dogs have been chewing up our fence and getting over to our back yard. We saw 4 aggressive pit bulls attacking our dogs (we have 1 small breed and 2 medium) but when confronting them about it my wife and I noticed they have what looks like an entire breeding scheme going on. The fence is our landlords and it was in perfect condition before these incidents but now there are multiple holes that have been chewed into it with the largest one being the size of an adults head. My youngest dog was limping after we found the 4 of them in our yard and just now one of them reached through and bit another one of our dogs faces. We have a 2 month old baby and I am what you would call a very constitutional southern man yet still I always try to avoid the nuclear option. I love dogs and I don't want to shoot them dead but they are becoming a danger to my family and property. What can I do to resolve this before it reaches a bad ending?

If nobody helps you Chain link staked to the ground against your side of the fence and single electric fence wire on top will keep them In there own yard. Seems excessive but you gotta protect your kids!

I'm absolutely a dog person too, who would make sure I had camera angles of the dogs coming into my yard and then go with the nuclear option. It's sad and isn't their fault but it also isn't yours... But your family is. A pack of feral dogs is a threat to everyone, including you.

If they recently moved in, and if this persists, you might want to take them to court for nuisance. I would check this out with an attorney.

I am a lawyer, just not your lawyer, and I am in GA. Check with your local ordinances. It sounds like there is some stuff going on that the local animal control office needs to know about. Document everything. Days, Times, Pictures, etc. Animal control will do anything possible to not put down any animals, but will look to your safety and the overall safety of the animals.

Not sure if your neighbor cares enough to do anything but had something similar happen years ago. Talked to my neighbor and he didn’t do anything. I found an old school fence charger at a farm sale. Set that up and the first time that dog tried to come thru was the last. New ones would probably be fine but the old grass burner chargers really packed a punch.

Maybe look into calling a local animal rescue group as well? I’d find it hard to believe that 10+ pitbulls aren’t being neglected and abused, especially if they are acting so aggressively. I have a feeling your neighbor participates in dog fights. This is terribly unfair to your family, your pets, and those dogs. A rescue group might also have more knowledge and resources on how to get those dogs away from that property and prevent the owner from getting any more dogs if he’s hurting the dogs.

Can My Parents Call the Cops on My Partner for Using My Car? Long story short, my parents aren't happy that I bought a car with my partner and allow her to use it. My partner and I aren't living together yet, so the car is with her because I currently do not have my full license and can't drive it without another licensed driver being present. Despite this, once I was able to obtain my license fully, our plans were to share the car and move in together. Since the car title is in my name, my parents believe I should have it to myself and have it parked on their property (where I live). They are pressuring me to take the car from my partner and have offered to reimburse her for the money she paid on it. This is simply because they don't trust her and are afraid that if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. The problem is that they are so upset by this situation that they have claimed that they "know people in law enforcement" and if they needed to, they would call the police on my partner, claim she stole it, and have her arrested. Would my parents actually be able to do that? The car is in my name, aren't I legally within my right to do what I want with the vehicle? And say they did make that phone call, would I be able to do anything to stop it?

They cannot call and say someone stole your car Grow up and tell your parents to fuck off out of your business and relationship. Or they will control you for the rest of your life and run off every girl worth anything
|
If the title is solely in your name, the police won't be amused when your parents try to report it as stolen and you, as the sole legal owner, tell them differently.

Is the car in your name, her name, or both? And you mentioned you don’t have a full license - are you over 18?

If she were to get in an accident and it was her fault your insurance would probably get involved. Does she have her own coverage? Make sure she is insured and covered fully for driving your vehicle. Your parents can call the police and tell them she has stolen it. However if she shows them the car is registered to you nothing will happen. Please let your parents know making a false report with the police can have it’s own ramifications that they will have to deal with. Get out of there!

That would be filing a false police report, so no, they can't do that. But I have to ask, is your partner properly insured for driving this car? You might also want to make up some documentation giving her permission to use the vehicle.
|
Like others have said, your parents should have no traction reporting it stolen, but that doesn’t mean 100% it won’t work and 100% there will be no ramifications of it, especially if they are willing to lie. A false police report, plus an arrest, plus dropped charges once you clear things up, are still a serious thing to deal with, and may continue to show up on certain background checks. Again, shouldn’t happen, but could. That being said, you may have liability for anything that occurs in that car since it’s your vehicle your entrusting to her to use. Proper insurance will protect you here. Ensure she is on your policy as a driver.

*Can* they call in and report the car stolen? Yes, they are capable of that. And the police might act on that information. Would your parents be breaking the law of they did so? Yes, making a false police report is generally illegal. The fact that they are not the owners of the car, and that you would happily tell the police the car was in use with your permission, would be evidence of this crime.

Your parents would be risking filing a false report. They could get in trouble for that. I would suggest you write a letter and have it notarized giving your gf permission to use the car. She can keep this letter with her just in case. Also you should have her as an authorized driver on your insurance. Do your parents want to have access to the car for their own use?

> if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. You are right to be skeptical. If the car's registered owner assumed responsibility for all traffic stops, then how could car rental companies stay in business?

*Can* they call in and report the car stolen? Yes, they are capable of that. And the police might act on that information. Would your parents be breaking the law of they did so? Yes, making a false police report is generally illegal. The fact that they are not the owners of the car, and that you would happily tell the police the car was in use with your permission, would be evidence of this crime.
|
Your parents would be risking filing a false report. They could get in trouble for that. I would suggest you write a letter and have it notarized giving your gf permission to use the car. She can keep this letter with her just in case. Also you should have her as an authorized driver on your insurance. Do your parents want to have access to the car for their own use?

Can My Parents Call the Cops on My Partner for Using My Car? Long story short, my parents aren't happy that I bought a car with my partner and allow her to use it. My partner and I aren't living together yet, so the car is with her because I currently do not have my full license and can't drive it without another licensed driver being present. Despite this, once I was able to obtain my license fully, our plans were to share the car and move in together. Since the car title is in my name, my parents believe I should have it to myself and have it parked on their property (where I live). They are pressuring me to take the car from my partner and have offered to reimburse her for the money she paid on it. This is simply because they don't trust her and are afraid that if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. The problem is that they are so upset by this situation that they have claimed that they "know people in law enforcement" and if they needed to, they would call the police on my partner, claim she stole it, and have her arrested. Would my parents actually be able to do that? The car is in my name, aren't I legally within my right to do what I want with the vehicle? And say they did make that phone call, would I be able to do anything to stop it?

If the police cared to pursue criminal charges against anyone in this scenario it would be your parents for filing a false police report. They know damn well the car isn't stolen.

Is she included on the cars insurance policy at all? Not a lawyer but I once purchased a car, title was fully in my name but at that time I didn't have a driver's license myself (only a permit) so when it came time to get it insured the insurance company I went through made me list a primary driver (had to be someone with a valid driver's license) for the car in the policy and I listed my boyfriend at the time.

Not a lawyer, but I think this is correct. Even if she has insurance, the damages usually follow the car's owner before the driver. You are probably required to have her listed on your policy if she is the main driver. Your parents are correct that if she causes a serious accident, the repercussions will fall on you. As the owner of the car, you can be sued along with the driver.

They could call, but you are the owner not them. As part of the investigation, the police would verify with you if she had permission to drive the car. Instead your parents could get in trouble for filing a false report. However, they are right to worry about the financial responsibility of her using the car. If she is in a wreck, your insurance could be affected. You mentioned your girlfriend helped pay for the car. Why isn’t she in the title if she paid money into it? That is a major risk on her part. I saw you had a (since deleted) post about hiding a relationship from your parents. If this is the relationship you hid, then it would seem your parents are concerned because there is a concern due to trust issues. Perhaps everyone sitting down and talking could help. If nothing else it may save the police wasted time responding to a call for a false report for a car theft which would let them work on other calls.

My question is if both of your parents have their own car, or if this car is significantly nicer than theirs? It may be they are annoyed that they can't just decide to "borrow" it themselves while it's with your partner. While I don't think they can report your property stolen when you've given permission for it to be used, it's helpful to understand if there's a bit more self interest at play in their determination to get it back on their property

You've already gotten answers on most of this, but I didn't see anyone address this: >they don't trust her and are afraid that if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. Tickets/citations would fall on her while she is driving but most states have owner's liability. So if she causes an accident in your car, you would be financially liable. Make sure she is listed as a driver of the vehicle on your insurance policy and make sure they are aware she is not a resident of your household, so there are no garaging misrepresentation issues in the event of an accident. Also make sure you have substantial liability limits on your insurance, so if she blows a stop sign and takes out a family of four, you aren't left holding the bag.

I’m kinda confused as to why you’d buy a car you can’t drive, you’re 21 and live with your parents. It sounds like your parents are tired of you making bad choices.

This is simply because they don't trust her and are afraid that if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. The problem is that they are so upset by this situation that they have claimed that they "know people in law enforcement" and if they needed to, they would call the police on my partner, claim she stole it, and have her arrested. Would my parents actually be able to do that? The car is in my name, aren't I legally within my right to do what I want with the vehicle? And say they did make that phone call, would I be able to do anything to stop it?

My question is if both of your parents have their own car, or if this car is significantly nicer than theirs? It may be they are annoyed that they can't just decide to "borrow" it themselves while it's with your partner. While I don't think they can report your property stolen when you've given permission for it to be used, it's helpful to understand if there's a bit more self interest at play in their determination to get it back on their property
|
I’m kinda confused as to why you’d buy a car you can’t drive, you’re 21 and live with your parents. It sounds like your parents are tired of you making bad choices.

Can My Parents Call the Cops on My Partner for Using My Car? Long story short, my parents aren't happy that I bought a car with my partner and allow her to use it. My partner and I aren't living together yet, so the car is with her because I currently do not have my full license and can't drive it without another licensed driver being present. Despite this, once I was able to obtain my license fully, our plans were to share the car and move in together.

You've already gotten answers on most of this, but I didn't see anyone address this: >they don't trust her and are afraid that if she gets pulled over for anything, that I would legally take the blow since the car is in my name. I'm not sure if that is true. Tickets/citations would fall on her while she is driving but most states have owner's liability. So if she causes an accident in your car, you would be financially liable. Make sure she is listed as a driver of the vehicle on your insurance policy and make sure they are aware she is not a resident of your household, so there are no garaging misrepresentation issues in the event of an accident. Also make sure you have substantial liability limits on your insurance, so if she blows a stop sign and takes out a family of four, you aren't left holding the bag.

Not a lawyer, but I think this is correct. Even if she has insurance, the damages usually follow the car's owner before the driver. You are probably required to have her listed on your policy if she is the main driver. Your parents are correct that if she causes a serious accident, the repercussions will fall on you. As the owner of the car, you can be sued along with the driver.

They could call, but you are the owner not them. As part of the investigation, the police would verify with you if she had permission to drive the car. Instead your parents could get in trouble for filing a false report. However, they are right to worry about the financial responsibility of her using the car. If she is in a wreck, your insurance could be affected. You mentioned your girlfriend helped pay for the car. Why isn’t she in the title if she paid money into it? That is a major risk on her part. I saw you had a (since deleted) post about hiding a relationship from your parents. If this is the relationship you hid, then it would seem your parents are concerned because there is a concern due to trust issues. Perhaps everyone sitting down and talking could help. If nothing else it may save the police wasted time responding to a call for a false report for a car theft which would let them work on other calls.

[TX] Got pulled over and the cop reached into my car with his phone and took a photo of the inside of my door. Is that even legal? I was pulled over for a broken tail light. After discussing it with the officer and being written a warning, he took his phone out without saying anything and just casually snapped a photo inside my vehicle, pointing towards the inside part of my door. I was so confused when he did it. He never asked permission, and I was anxious so I didn't know what to think until he left. Thinking on it, I assume he was trying to see if I had something illegal in my car? But I was under the impression that the officer would have to ask for my permission to search the vehicle.

I am not a lawyer, private property, if it wasn't in plain sight from the outside illegal entry without a warrant or reason to enter. Call IAB and report badge number or name.

Could he have been getting a picture of the VIN number? It's a strange thing to do if there wasn't something odd with the plate or registration.

A golfer hit my wind shield with a golf ball and completely destroyed it. Neither insurance company will cover it (Florida). I was driving home from work and I experienced a loud bang in my wind shield and I almost crashed. After coming to a complete stop, I realized a golfer sliced a ball into my windshield. Since he was the only one within a few hundred yards, it was obvious what happened. I called him over and I took a picture of his license and insurance card. I have USAA (liability) and he has Security National (falls under Bristol West). USAA said they would have covered it if I had comprehensive coverage because it’s a Florida law that they would have to, but I didn’t have comprehensive so they said to contact his insurance company. His insurance said since he wasn’t operating a vehicle when he caused the damage, they won’t cover it. They gave me his contact info but he won’t respond to emails, texts, or phone calls. Totals for a new windshield was $500. What should my next steps be, if anything?

In most states, A player playing golf under normal circumstances is not liable for property damages caused by their errant golf shot. At the same time, it is common for those who live near, or drive by, a golf course to accepted some level of risk for choosing to do so, presuming there are other areas to live or other routes one could take to get to their destination.

I am an insurance agent with a license in FL. Because you didn’t have comprehensive coverage and he wasn’t operating a motor vehicle your only recourse would be small claims court.

Since this is still an advice sub, I'd say chalk it up to experience. If you don't carry comprehensive (it's a choice, but the repercussions are you have to pay to fix damage like this) then you just have to pay to repair it. It's not much different than hail, a tree falling, or a shopping cart running into the car; it's on you to pay for the damage if you don't have comprehensive. You can't sue God or the City Forester. I mean, you technically could, but I doubt it'll get you anywhere. So, my advice on next step is to search around for discounts (groupon typically has a few that offer something like $15 for a $100 credit towards a window) to replace the window and then ask your insurance what the cost of comprehensive is and consider adding it to your policy. If the cost doesn't outway the potential pain of making repairs or loosing your car to "an act of god" then it might be worth it.

Not a lawyer but I work at a golf course and deal with this quite regularly. Most times, if the course is near a road/split by a road the golf course will cover the windshield. They have insurance for this. Take the time/date/proof it happened. Be sure to have the players name. Most likely they will just pay it out of pocket for you since it’s not worth the deductible

If he has home owners or rental insurance, they should be covering those damages.

(Drunk) Taco Bell Employees Destroyed My Car. Hey guys, I've posted in a few places already, but I'd like some actual advice as well. My partner works at Taco Bell and my car died in the parking lot one day at work. Management agreed that we could keep it there until we could afford to tow it, and my partner asked coworkers for help whose parents etc owned companies, of which we'd reimburse them of course asap. Anyways, 8 taco bell employees including Managers got drunk and trashed my car in uniform, on the clock, during business hours, and posted it to TikTok. Taco Bell HR told us today that the involved employees were "disciplined" without elaboration and said they aren't liable and to go to the police. I have already made a police report but haven't heard anything back. What do I do here? Thanks!

Former insurance adjuster here. This might be my favorite claim I've heard in ages. It's awful; I love it. I'm sure you're less enthusiastic. This is a pretty straightforward insurance claim. It would be covered under comprehensive coverage, and subject to your deductible. Your insurance company will fix your car and then sic their subrogation team on the Taco Bell employees. The subro team will also try to recover your deductible but just a heads up, it usually takes a few months for subrogation to conclude. With a TikTok video (omg I'm so in love with this claim) recovery should be pretty easy. You'll almost certainly get your deductible back. I'd also recommend a complaint to Taco Bell Corporate if you haven't done it already. Definitely make that police report as well and back up that TikTok video in several places. Please reply if you don't have comprehensive and I'll give you a Plan B :)

File with YOUR insurance if you have collision/ comprehensive coverage. It'll be the fastest. Then your insurance co will chase down TacoBell/workers/whoever else they can to pay the bill. You'd be out your deductible 1st, but you'll eventually get it back. If you didn't have collision/ comprehensive then you'll have to sue. I'd start with the franchise owners insurance co for the property as they were in uniform and you had permission to be there. Good luck.

Cops tell me the owner of the car that hit and ran must admit they were the one driving in order to ticket them. My wife's parked car was hit by a hit and run driver in Illinois. We have security camera footage of the accident and also dash cam footage of the car as it left including the license plate number. The cops said that they went by the address a couple times and left a card. I asked the hit and run officer how this will work since you cant ticket a license plate, and he said that unfortunately the owner of the car must admit they were driving in order to be ticketed. I once got a ticket for running a red light from a red light camera. Pretty sure it didn't show my face. What's the difference?

Whoever drove the car doesn't need to get a ticket for your insurance to go after the owner of the car for damages. They can do that with the license plate. If the car wasn't stolen, they're probably trying to get it fixed now too. If it was stolen, your insurance will hopefully cover you.

I am not a lawyer, but the red light ticket is a civil penalty, the hit and run is a criminal charge. The owner of the car can tell the police that they were not driving and refuse to identify who was driving. That is enough reasonable doubt to make it nearly impossible to convict the owner of the car.

I'm a US citizen living and stuck in Iran. I want to come to the US. I'm 18 and female. I was born in the US in the state of Oregon and lived there until 11 years old. My parents are Iranian and went back to Iran when I was 11. I'm a dual Iranian-American citizen. I don't have an American or Iranian passport but I have my birth certificate and social security number and school records from when I was in the US. There is no US embassy in Iran and I need my father's permission to get an Iranian passport or leave the country so that I can go to another country to visit a US embassy. My father will not give me the permission. My brother lives in Seattle this is where I will go once I go to the US. What can I do? How do I come back to the US?

I am a Canadian born Iranian, if there is proof that you were born in another country you don't need your father's permission. My parents both looked into this for me because I was unsure as to whether or not I was willing to visit.

I am not a lawyer but could a US Embassy help her if she was able to get out of Iran? The US State Department says "Dual nationals whose U.S. passports are confiscated may also obtain a “Recommendation Letter” from the Foreign Interests Section of the Embassy of Switzerland, the U.S. protecting power. This statement enables the travelers to apply for third-country visas in Tehran, provided they meet criteria for a visa of the country they are transiting. The Swiss Embassy can issue this statement only after the traveler's U.S. nationality is confirmed, which may take some time. A “Recommendation Letter” would be considered in lieu of the standard invitation letter that all visa applicants are required to present; however, it does not guarantee issuance of an entry visa."

In addition to talking to the Swiss Embassy, I would also recommend looking at the US State Department's virtual Iranian embassy, which has some resources that could help you: https://ir.usembassy.gov/ It's worth mentioning that Iran does not recognize dual citizenship, so that will not help you if you run into issues with Iran's authorities.

I have an important question: When you left the US and entered Iran, did you use your US passport or Iranian passport when entering Iran? If you entered with a US passport then you can leave with a US passport and you don't need your dad's permission to get a US passport. Since there is no US embassy at Iran, they usually have another country's embassy helping them out. As someone else said, I think it's Switzerland.

Silly question, but does Iran have any land border crossings where the usual exit formalities are not enforced (whether deliberately or de facto)? I couldn't find mention of any in a quick google search (of English web pages), but may be worth of looking into a bit.

Are you sure you need your father's permission? Everything I've looked up says that women over 18 and unmarried do not need their father's permission to travel. There was consideration of such a law in 2013/14 but I don't see it ever passed. If you were married, you would need your husband's permission. Who told you that you need your dad's permission to get the Iranian passport? If it's him, don't listen to him. Go see about getting it. Back up plan. Do you have a male friend you trust who you can get a sham marriage to, get his permission to leave, leave, and then divorce? That's a complicated plan but hey, whatever.
