My apartment was broken into and thousands of dollars of my property were stolen. The thieves gained access through a window which the lock was broken on and I was unaware of the lock being broken. What are my rights here? Am I able to sure the landlord for damages?
I have been given a Summons to Witness for a trial in North bay on June 29th. The driver has been charged with Under Suspension and No Insurance. The vehicle was still registered in my name but I had sold the vehicle to a resident of North Bay some months previous and I have the Bill of Sale dated April 10/2011. This will cost me a day off work not mention the cost of driving to North Bay from Alliston and back. Is there any legal excuse I can use to avoid this inconvenience?
