Why would a Daewoo Nubira 2002 rattle only when accelerating?

Why would a Daewoo Nubira 2002 rattle only when accelerating?
Because there is something wrong with the accelerater.


Is the rattle coming from the tire? It could be that you just broke your wheel studs and your tire is hardly holding on! Do not drive this car!!!

Question

Hi, I just moved to Florida from New Jersey a few months ago. I have not gotten back my security deposit from my landlord, and it has been over 90 days. I can't get back to New Jersey. I would like to give Power of Attorney for finances(limited Power) to my son who is up in New Jersey. I bought the forms from NOLO. I just needed to know if I need any witnesses to sign it and do I have to have it notarized down in FL. or does my son have to go to a notary in NJ. I did call NOLO but they couldn't answer my question. They told me that since I live in Florida now it has to be notarized in Fl., but the Apt. I lived in was in New Jersey. The NOLO person told me to go back to jersey and get it Notarized. If I could do that I wouldn't have to give my son Power of Attorney. I hope you can let me know what to do. Do I need any witnesses and if I do how many and do I get it Notarized in Florida or does my son when He signs it in NJ.



Answer

A Notary acknowledges that the person who signs a document is really the person who is named in the document. That is the entire purpose of getting something notarized. A person shows their identification to the Notary and signs the document in front of them. The Notary will sign as notary and affix their stamp and seal. There is no special state that the document needs to be notarized in. It will be notarized in whatever state in which you choose to personally appear before a Notary who is authorized in that state. Traditionally, a Power of Attorney will have one witness. The Notary may sign as witness as well as sign as Notary. This is the literal answer to your question. I obviously have not seen the document that you obtained. Therefore, I cannot comment one way or the other as to whether the document you seek to sign is a well-prepared document or will pass muster as a valid Power of Attorney in the State of New Jersey for the purpose you intend.

Question

If my company was bought by another company and they keep the same rate of pay then 3 years they say that they are changing our rate to the new company rate. Is there a grandfather rule where they can only change the rate of pay for new hires. They should not change the employee that have been that rate of pAy for 3 years?



Answer

I assume you are an at-will employee under California law.

Under this assumption, there is no such grandfather rule. The company has a right to increase or reduce an employee's wages as it sees fit, regardless of the employee's seniority. The only exception to this is if the decrease in pay constitutes unlawful discrimination on the basis of race, gender, or other protected status.

Question

My had to turn himself in due to new charges , the new charges were traffic charges all misdemeanor charges.

At this time he is currently incarcerated in Chatham county jail , he has had no contact with any attorney. He went to court for the traffic violations and was offered 24mths to do 12mths. Then later came back later with a simple battery charge. The young lady he was in the car with was subpena she has since declined to not testify against my son.

She was then told if she didn't then charges can be brought up against her, since the car that was hit in the accident was a clerk of a chatham county judge

MY Question is what are my options and is this legal ? I cant afford to pay for an attorney and its obvious that the public defenders are not going to help. So what can I do ?



Answer

Your options are to help him get a lawyer, or see him stay in jail and/or come out with a harsher punishment. As far as whether something is "legal," you are asking for an analysis based on a few sentences from someone who is not involved in the case (and that is probably based on what someone else said about it). In addition, even if you did get a response about it, responses from an anonymous website, from people who know nothing about the case, won't help you a bit.



Answer

You cannot afford an attorney, and the PD will not help. The only answer is your son is screwed. You should put money on his books, and pray that the system will release him sometime in the next two years.
