Truly you never know how judges will view the situation if it did end up in court.

I would only judge his/her work based on the final product.

Since the sale was confirmed by the judge today, I was on the phone with the sheriff's foreclosure department asking questions about the deed. 

I've heard some possible concerns with a judge seeing it that way, but it's never stopped me from keeping the entire security deposit in this case.

I judged the cost/benefit of it (even in a sunny locale with high electric rates) to be too low.

Everyone was so quick to judge you based on the entirely irrelevant marriage issue I don't know if I want to ask my question.

It would definitely be better, however, if she were not your mother; as a tenant-friendly judge might not look highly upon it.However, you are correct that you can not charge for your time, and you can not mark up any costs that you incur.

On June 5th the judge order all his properties seized.

@Leon Li  When you assert that one small misstep and the LLC is worthless because of a technicality you are forgetting one major thing; the other side has to prove that and get a judge to agree in court.

Then he ont have to tell it to the judge.
