If you say the agent did it - The claims adjusters will look at the agent who wrote the policy to see if they can stick them with some of the claim obligation on the agent's E&O but that effort is more about improving the company profitability versus the justice of "right & wrong".

If the numbers make sense with the current taxes, a successful tax challenge down the road is just icing on the cake.

The good hard working men and woman that have a challenged work history or perhaps have a not so colorful background with the criminal justice system.

Complaints to the city that brought out an inspector, who tried to enter on Nov. 17, failed and never returned.In such cases, said Robert Weisberg, a Stanford law professor and co-director of the school’s Criminal Justice Center, someone responsible for the property can be convicted of involuntary manslaughter if “a reasonable person under the circumstances would have realized there was some high probability of death.”I'm not going to post the entire article, but it has a decent summary of what it takes for a landlord to expose themselves to criminal prosecution.

I could go into a long rant about gurus, but I've said it all before and it's on BP already, not putting you in a guru status per se.And, I agree, this subject is too complicated to cover the bases in a forum, to do it justice, I'd say you could attend classes for a year and still not touch all aspects of the business, at least at the pace I taught finance at the college level years ago.

I spoke to family of the offender, and I honestly believe he got a bad break (serious baby momma drama - not to get all men's rights activist here, but it is truly unholy how much weight the word of a woman-scorned carries in our justice system, particular if the accused cant afford a decent attorney.)

You only get the justice that you can afford.Mike
