Liability for fire damages, New York Civil Code
A fire in my neighbor's condo two floors above me caused extensive water damage to my personal property and my apartment.I did not have home owner's insurance at that time. My neighbor's insurance company claims that it is not liable for the damages to my unit on the grounds that the cause of the fire was never determined. I am taking my neighbor to small claims court in nyc and wonder if and how I need to prove his liability aside from proving damages. The fire was not an act of G-d, nor was it cause by electrical fire or a flaw in major appliance[these are ruled out], the fire department stated that the fire was probably caused by an external heat source which caused cardboard left on the Kitchen counter top to catch on fire.However,since the exact sequence of events was not determined, they listed the cause of the fire as indeterminate even though the report suggested stove/cooking. It occurred on a Sat. morning, the family left the apt early, fire occurred 90 min later, on kitchen counter top Please help. Thank you. Am i on the right forum or is there a better one? Thank you!
I have a buyer but the sell is on hold because the title company needs a discharge for the property. I had refinanced this property in 1994 and the company from whom I re-fianced did not file with the county. Even though I have a discharge from the company who I had refinanced to, the title company wants to make sure there is no lien on the previous loan. Both the companies have been taken over by the same company but it will not give me a letter saying there is no lien on the property. They say it could take up to 90 days. I am afraid I am going to loose my buyer. Is there any alternative? If the sale falls thru, do I have a recourse against the mortgage company for not filling the discharge in the first place?
Thanks
emancipation
My daughter married at 17 and became emancipated thus child support payments stopped coming to me from her father. She is now 19 and getting divorced. She also now has a 2 year old son and wants to move back in with me, her mother. Can I have the child support resumed in MO, especially since she is attending a technical school? I know the child support laws state that I can receive support until they are 22 or attend a college/technical school, which ever comes first but I am not familiar with MO emancipation laws? Thanks Kathleen
