Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to kf I AM six forty, the Bill
Handles show on demand on the iHeartRadio f and Good
Morning Bill Handle Here it is a Saturday morning, three
fun hours. If I handle on the law, complete total
humiliation of you by me, if I can. Sometimes it's
(00:22):
the other way around, depending on the phone call number here,
since we start the show and the top of the
hour always the best time to call. Sometimes we're jammed
and you can't get in for an hour and a half.
So if you'd like to ask a marginal legal question
and to get a marginal legal answer, the number is
(00:44):
eight hundred five to zero one five three four eight
hundred five to two zero one five three four, And
the rules of the game are as always the same.
If you are completely unintelligible cannot be understood, you're right
there at the top of the list.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
If you are.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Without limbs, let's say you are a quadruple amputee, that's
good stuff too, although it's kind of hard to dial
the phone.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Although who dials anymore now?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Just go hey Siri and theoretically answers the phone, although
mine takes forever. And if you are of an ethnicity
that I can make fun of right there top of
the list too, So it's all good. The number eight
hundred five two zero one five three four eight hundred
five two zero one five three four. Keep in mind
(01:36):
this is marginal legal advice. Now before I jump into
the show. I'm not a baseball watcher. I am not
a fan of baseball. But man, last night that Dodger game, Hey,
how about them Dodgers. I gotta tell you, I watched
this saying and show, hey, Otani, who they can't speak
(01:57):
highly enough of, probably is going to be the best
player in the history of the game, both a pitcher
and a and a hitter and now fielder and a hitter,
and the guy is unbelievable, unbelievable. I think last time
there was a pitcher and a hitter that each either
one was a premier position in that position was I
(02:20):
think it was Babe Ruth until he gave up pitching.
So show hey, o Tani both ways, three homers, six strikeouts. Man,
that's something. Okay, that's enough sports talk. I don't do
sports talk, by the way, just to let you know,
but had to do it this time around. Also, here's
a fun contract, seven hundred million dollars over ten years.
(02:42):
Not bad, not bad. You could do worse. The number
eight hundred five two zero one five three fours the
number to call eight hundred five two zero one five
three four. And we want to ramp up and get
going on this as quickly as possible. Eight hundred five
(03:02):
two zero one five three four. Okay, let's do it.
This is handle on the law, marginal legal advice where
I tell you you have absolutely no case.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I love church church leaders who.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Go south and you know molest kids. Not the molestation part,
I mean, that's horrific. But I'm talking about their fall
from grace. And for some reason, it seems to be
the more fundamentalist Christian they are talking morality and family values,
(03:41):
it's the more entertaining it is when they fall. And
by the way, it has happened to a number of them.
And here is the latest out of Oklahoma. There is
a megachurch in actually is a Texas megachurch founder Robert Morris,
and he pleaded guilty in an Oklahoma court to sex
(04:02):
crimes against a girl. The sex crime started in nineteen
eighty two and continued for years. He's sixty four years old,
entered guilty please to five felony accounts of lude or
indecent acts to a child. Now here's the part that
I just don't get. He's going to serve six months
(04:22):
in county jail and then be put on probation for
nine years and six months.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
How when you.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Plead guilty to five felony counts of lud indecent acts
to a child, you only are in jail for six months.
He has to register as a sex offender and has
to pay two hundred and seventy thousand dollars in restitution
to the victim. Where he's gonna get two hundred and
(04:51):
seventy thousand dollars, I have no idea, And that's what
happens these insane restitution numbers. Like the guy who has
been arrested and has been charged with starting the Palisades
fire here in southern California, nine thousand or sixteen thousand
homes and structures went up and twelve people died.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
He's going to pay restitution, of course he is.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Another thing about this is the Megatures founder Robert Morris
did not apologize in court. He pled guilty to molesting
this young girl or by now she's an adult and
didn't apologize at all. Now he's a convicted felon. Of course,
(05:40):
the sentence was suspended, and if he violates the conditions
of probation, he goes right back to court, which is
generally the same. So he admitted or Morris admitted the wrongdoing.
I remember he pled guilty but did not apologize. After
the victim and she allowed her name to be you.
(06:00):
Cindy Klemishire spoke to a blog called the wart Berg Watch,
a blog about sexual abuse within the church, and she
decided to come forward publicly. Usually they do not release
names of victims, and she wants to encourage others who
may be victims to tell their stories. And I'll tell
(06:22):
you right now, you bet there are others. You bet
there are. And she went on to say, and to him,
now she gave a victim statement.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
She's in court staring right at him.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
When you built a megachurch, authored books, gain fame, I
dropped out of college, endured endured divorces, and struggled with
self worth. Yeah, while you twisted your crimes into a
story of infidelity to protect your image, my family and
I were left trying to explain the truth to pastors
(06:57):
who look the other way. Yeah, that's a fun one too.
The Catholic Church rightly was nailed beyond nailed on that one,
where you have the priests who were caught molesting usually
young boys over years and years, and the church protected
them knowing that they did that. Now, to be fair
(07:19):
to the Catholic Church, it has changed around completely Now
it takes every allegation very seriously. All right, enough of that.
I can't believe it was only six months in jail. However,
since he molested a minor. You know, you can get
two weeks if you're in the general population. And it's
(07:40):
not going to be pleasant. Where we get shanked, you
may very well die or seriously get injured.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
All right, let's do it, Paul, Hello, Paul, welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Good morning.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Yes, sir, how are you go ahead?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
I have a question for you. I bought a life
insurance policy recently. I did the process to the phone,
the application process to the phone. I was asked a
series of questions and one of the questions specifically, was
about my cholesterol, and I told him that I had
been diagnosed with cholesterol. Correct. So when I got the
(08:24):
policy in the mail, I went through to the to
the questionnaire, and I saw that he had answered that.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I did not have the high cholesterol.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
So I'm wondering if that's going to affect the coverage
in some way or Okay, let me.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Ask, let me throw a couple of questions. How big?
How big is the policy? Paul? Two hundred and fifty
All right, two hundred fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And what the agent probably did because he's on commission
is slide through that to make sure that you got
the policy now for two hundred and fifty thousand dollars?
Is that enough to argue? Well, here is what you're
looking at. The problem is is let's say you die
(09:15):
because of some issue related to high cholesterol, for example
a stroke or a heart attack.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That may be an issue.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So the other side of it is if you go
in and say, oh, no, I have high cholesterol, they
may not accept you or charge higher premiums.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
So what does six and one half a dozen of
the other.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
If it is wrong the application, because you're supposed to
look at it carefully and there is an error and
we're talking about your health, they could bounce it. They could,
so you know, you're better off dying of something else.
How's your relationship with your Are you married?
Speaker 5 (09:56):
I am married?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yes, you are married?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Kids, Yes, sir, I do I have kids?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
How old? How old are the kids?
Speaker 5 (10:06):
Twenty four, seventeen and twelve?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
All right, Well, I'm just going to suggest an easier
way for you to family to collect is simply to,
you know, stick a gun in your mouth and blow
your brains out. Then they can't argue collect. Then they
cannot argue cholesterol. So don't die of a heart attack,
don't die of a stroke. You know, if you're going
to die, step in front of an Amazon car truck
(10:29):
or whatever. I don't know if they were going to
say anything or not. And the other situation is no,
I'll tell you the guy who sent you the policy
is going to lie about what you said over the phone.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You know what. I don't know which way to go.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Can they bounce you, yeah, and say you misrepresented your
health and you died of exactly what we asked you,
and you said that you didn't have that problem.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
So it's your choice.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You know, I know that's kind of a weird answer,
but it's so yeah, or an equivocal answer or equivocal answer.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
All right, let's go ahead and take our first break.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
This is Handle on the Law, Kay Pie handle here
on Saturday morning, number eight hundred five two zero one
five three four eight hundred five two zero one five
three four and welcome back. Handle on the Law Marginal
Legal Advice.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Alan. Hello, Alan, welcome to the program.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Thanks Bill. My question is should I have my attorney
draw up a document that with one of my grandchildren.
I want to give them their inheritance now, but that
grandchild needs to know that that's all they're going to get.
Long story short eight grand'll go ahead, sir, Yeah, No,
(11:55):
you don't have to.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
No, you don't need an attorney.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
You just you know what you do. You tell them, hey,
I'm going to give you some money now, you're not
going to be in the will. And what you do
is you have an attorney right the trust or the will.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Because you have to.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Specifically disinherit him, because if you're leaving all the grandkids
money and he doesn't get the money, that he is
going to sue for under the will. What you want
to do is very carefully say that you are being
disinherited under this will, and then you add the language
(12:33):
because you already receive the money Henry Ford, not Henry Ford.
Oh my god, oh god, I forgot Can you imagine
I forgot this name? Big actor?
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Wow? By just one of those mind breaks.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
But anyway, okay, major actor, and I'll get the name,
and you're gonna know exactly what I'm talking about. His
daughter also a huge actress. She was in clute and
the name just draws me. So anyway, he left a
pile of money and didn't leave a dinder. Yes, thank you,
(13:09):
Henry Fonda, thank you much. And his daughter. So he
left a pile of money to his family and disinherited her,
and did so by saying, she is well off, she
makes enough money that she doesn't need my money. So
it wasn't a I want to disinherit. It was just
(13:30):
explained why he disinherited her in a good way. What
ends up happening. And here is the way. Here the
way the rules work. If you have eight grandkids and
you leave one out, that one out is going to
can come right back and contest everything and say you
forgot to put me in.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I'm entitled.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I mean, that's just happens, especially if you're talking a
large sum of money.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
That part you want that part.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You want to get an attorney to right, So yeah,
I would get in attorney or a to write either
a trust or a will under that for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Robert, Hello, Robert, welcome.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
I have got a couple of buildings in Los Angeles
that are innundated with homeless encampment and has been that
way for five years. And this year, well this is
nobody has come out from the city. They've made four
different appointments to come out and clean this year. I've
driven down there and waited all day for them to
(14:32):
show up. They never showed up four different times, and
I keep talking to them. I don't know. It's terrible.
The homeless are dumping laws, sewage daily in the streets,
stealing electricity from the poles, stealing water from the fire hydrants,
and the trash in some places is taller than six feet.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Okay, I got it. I got it.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
And the city won't come out and do anything, which
they don't do. And when they do, these people come
right back. Are they on your property?
Speaker 6 (15:04):
No rights the street?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
So yeah, yeah, that's that is that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Because if they were near your property, say a sidewalk
in front of your property, even on it I mean
they're not. The authorities aren't going to do anything anymore.
Sometimes they do. I just say, you clean the sidewalk
with a with a high pressure hose six times a day,
but across the street and the city won't do anything
about it.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
God, that's a mess. Uh Are they are they in front.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Of other properties, other apartment buildings, businesses? Yes, okay, well
are they doing Are they doing anything?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Okay? Are they doing anything? The owners of the buildings
across the.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Street they try and they call the authorities too, and
they call the authorities too, right, all right, Well, I'm
it's it's a mess when when the authorities don't want
to do anything and they're overwhelmed, I mean totally overwhelmed.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
And I had that happen in my house.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
But it's it was a pretty nice neighborhood, and I
was very lucky because a city councilman happened to live
in my neighborhood. So there was an encampment under the
bridge where I get off the freeway and I go
under the overpass, huge encampment there. Cleaned up almost immediately.
(16:30):
But that was a councilman who lived in the neighborhood.
You know, all you can do is keep on trying.
I mean there's and even if they rouse those people,
you just need as much pressure. Have you talked to
the city councilman who represents your district.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Emails? Yes, and they're representatives.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
You know you keep I think you keep on pushing,
You keep on pushing, and mentioned that you're a constituent
and you say to that that that the office, because
they always have a representative and ambunsman that does voter
relations is say hey, you know what, I'm gonna go
crazy to make sure that this guy is not elected.
(17:11):
You've got an enemy on your hands. You have to
help your constituents. That's basically all you can do. You
can get restraining orders. Okay, now what so the police
come in, they uphold the restraining order, out, they go.
Next day, they come back in. So you know, there's
no good answer that I mean, I I'm fine that
there's no good answer because my neighborhood is great.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
So I mean, do I really care? This is Handle
on the Law. You're listening to Bill Handle on demand
from KFI AM six forty KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Bill Handle here Saturday morning, phone number eight hundred five
two zero one five three four. Eight hundred five two
zero one five three four. Now we are off to
a fairly slow start this morning. Sometimes not sometimes yes,
So let me do this, Sam.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Let's give a preview, hold.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
On a minute of what's going to happen in the
event people call up. See, this is one of the
things I love doing this show. I really do. But
I'm unfortunately at your beck and call. This is why
I don't take phone calls Monday through Friday on my show.
I just talk and I'm not going to talk for
three hours on Saturday. I'm done talking by Friday. And no, nope, nope,
(18:30):
close enough. Yeah, maybe we should cut to the traffic.
But anyway, the phone number is eight hundred five to
two zero one five to three four. And if you
don't call, you know what happens. Sam.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
That's correct, that's correct. Okay, that was.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Just an intro as to what's going to happen. All right,
fair enough, eight hundred five to zero one five to
three four. Let's go to it. Let's go through the
phone calls. Welcome back, Handle on the law Mark Legal Advice. Veronica. Hello, Veronica,
welcome to the show.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Hi Bill, I'm renting a very expensive condo in Orange County.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Okay, what's what's what's expensive.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
About four thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Now, I want to make a point here for people
that are listing in other parts of the country. Four
thousand dollars, As Veronica says.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
It's very expensive.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It may be a lot of money, which it is,
but relative to the cost of rentals in southern California,
that is not outrageous. Now, if you go to Tennessee,
for example, what you're going to get is a six
bedroom house on five acres of land with three cars
(19:49):
on cinder blocks in the front yard instead of just
one and all the possums.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Do you could ever eat?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
So moving on, moving on, Okay, thousand month condo and
what's going on?
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Well, the dishwasher is not working.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
It came furnished with the dishwasher.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
No refrigerator.
Speaker 6 (20:08):
SED buy a big refrigerator.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
But the dishrushers, you know, so rusty. It feels like
a safety hazard. And I want to know if the
landlord's responsible for changing that or do I have to
replace it?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I would say, I would say the landlord is responsible,
and I'll tell you why, because he supplied it. All right,
If he did not supply it, you'd be responsible because
that's not considered a true necessity.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Incidentally, they just changed.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
The law in La County or maybe the state of California,
in which now landlords must supply a refrigerator because too often,
like in your case, Veronica, here comes the apartment of
the condo, no refrigerator, and you now buy a refrigerator.
So let's say you now have to move someplace else.
(20:57):
The hassle of moving a refrigerator is astronomical, and there's
a good chance that a rental has a refrigerator refrigerator there,
so you're in the minority.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
So I would say, yeah, and have.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
You contacted your landlord and saying this is a rusty
old piece of crap and I'm paying four thousand dollars a.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Month, not yet, but I want to that's what you
want to do. Yeah, No, that's what you want to do. Legally. Yeah,
I think he does because he offered it.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
It's part of the apartment or the condo, and you
bought it and where you bought everything that was in it,
and it all has to work. If he didn't supply one, eh,
you know, he doesn't have to buy law supply one,
but all, who's going to rent a you know, four
thousand dollars place without a dishwasher? Frankly, I'm shocked that
he didn't put in a refrigerator there that you brought
(21:51):
in your own.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
How much have you spent for the fridge?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
I think there's about four thousand dollars for.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
The dollars for a fridge.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So what happens is, uh, well, you got one of
the top top top ones. So let me ask you,
what do you do when you leave there and you
go someplace else because you're renting, what do you do
with your what do you do with your four.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Thousand dollars refrigerator? I'm going to Yeah, no kidding. See,
that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
That's why the law now says refrigerators I have to
be offered because that is the big issue.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
So how long have you been in How long have
you been in your condo?
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I said March so a little over six months.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
If you'd waited six months and just bought one of
those Igloo coolers for six months, you would have been fine.
You would have gotten a new refrigerator. Anyway, that's the answer.
A couple of things are absolutely mandatory, and that is
the heating has to work.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
That's by law, no issue. You have to have hot water.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You can't have leaks, you can't have broken windows that
the landlord must fix that. Dishwashers, No, doesn't even have
to supply one, but if he does, you your rental
includes a working dishwasher.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Devon, Hi, Devon, Hey, what's going on with bial?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I'm doing a show. What's going on with you? You picked
up the phone and you're calling me? All right, we
got that one straightened out, you know what, Devin, let
me do this. Let me stick you on hold because
I don't want to knock you off too soon.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Okay, So we'll be right. I'll be right back with Devon.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
And before we take the break, I'm going to tell
you about the Pain Game Podcast. The Pain Game Podcast
is hosted by Lindsey and I know her very well,
being married to her and the guests that she have
have lived with, dealt with treated people living in pain,
and that's what she does. She lives in chronic pain
(23:52):
twenty four to seven and it's really difficult to live with.
So what she did is create the Pain Game Podcast
to help others. And with that she helps herself. Every
episode ends with a message of hope, and you're going
to quickly understand the show is about giving pain purpose.
I know that sounds weird, but you'll understand when you
listen to the show. The Pain Game Podcast Season three
(24:15):
is wrapping up soon. The next episode is about turning trauma,
because this is about pain and trauma, turning trauma into
triumph with San Diego attorney al Alreen hay Quiz, who's
twenty three years experience fighting for women who have endured
sexual abuse, harassment, discrimination, and she's recovered millions for her clients,
(24:36):
including taking on President Trump and getting the Trump University's
victims compensated. So she's really good. So it's worth a
male female. If you have someone in your life who
is suffering from chronic pain, you really want to jump
on this. And unfortunately you even lose people, too many
(24:58):
people with chronic pain, or they commit suicide.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
It's that tough.
Speaker 1 (25:02):

go through these pretty quickly, unlike other hopes who take
their time, which is fine, you know, it's the way.

(25:52):
want to talk to you. I've never understood that anyway.

the law marginal legal advice. Hi, Devin, Hey, Devin you there?
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yes, Yes, can you hear me? I, sir, cant can
you hear me?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I sure can't?
Speaker 3 (27:39):
About that? No, It's okay, I have I appreciate it. Okay.
I have two legal questions. One is an uninhabitable question
and living conditions, and the other is about the lemon
lows in California. Okay, Number one on the body two
thousand Leving used to BMW. That was July the twenty
(28:00):
ninth this year, and then September the thirtieth, the transmission
completely blew up.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Okay, all right, Devin, let me let me, let me
ask some real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
I'm gonna interrupt you for a moment, sir, and that
is let's start with, did you buy it from a dealership?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yes? It was?
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Okay, good, that helps us, sir, okay.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
And so the transmission goes out, well, just a few
months after the you buy the car, right.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Yes, sir, okay, about forty forty five days, the car
goes up the train.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Okay, fair enough. And the year of the car, and
what's the what what's the year of the car?
Speaker 3 (28:37):
It's a two thousand and it was a two thousand
and he lived in bm W.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that's the issue. Uh is
the car is that old? So if it was, if
it was three or four years old, you'd be okay.
So I'm gonna here's the advice i'm gonna give you.
I do commercials for a Lemon law lawyer, and that's
the specialty that you want to talk to, and they'll
obviously talk to you for free. The only issue you
(29:04):
have is the age of the car and how far
back the Lemon law goes and I don't think it's statutory.
It maybe where it says it's six years or five years.
I don't know the answer to that. But that's an
easy answer to get with a Lemon law lawyer. But
you have to make sure you go to a Lemon
law lawyer because it is a specialty onto itself.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
So how's that for advice? Talk to a lawyer knows
what the hell he's doing.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Now your next question, okay, my next question. You know
I've been calling you for about two years now dealing
with this landlord situation, uninhabitable living conditions, the roaches, the mold,
the road in infestation. We went to court the lenn
the judge told the landlord he needed to mediate the mold,
(29:49):
right coach is YadA YadA. He ends up painting over the.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Mold and oh yeah, I remember that. Yeah, I remember that.
And I told you to just stop paying the rent.
Either move out and you can can hit him from
moving expenses, or just stop paying the rent.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Yes, so I will tell you with the marginal legal
advice you did give, you don't get enough credit because
he ended up offering me fifteen thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yeah, no, that's what happened.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
They have to.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yeah, yeah, that's the way it works. The lost pretty stiff.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You can't have all You can't have mice running around
and eating your kids.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Yeah, well that's true. Now this is the issue, this issue,
So I am suing. I am suing the landlord. Okay,
I'm taking him to court. I just finished my deposition
here about two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Uh huh.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
It's been about sixty days since I've moved out. Number one,
he hasn't returned to security deposit. And number two, I'm
just curious what's the outcome in the case that's.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Going to be.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I mean, he's not going to return the security deposit.
It's all part of the lawsuit. All of it is
part of the lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
So the outcome is you're probably going to get some money,
and some pretty good money. So you're gonna do okay.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
And the attorney said she wanted to start at one
hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Yeah, I know, that's just an attorney saying.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Yeah, that's just an attorney saying one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars. I don't know why it wasn't fifteen million.
That's just an attorney blowing smoke, but you're going to
get thousands of dollars. You are going to get thousands
of dollars, no question about that. Before we go, I
want to talk about your bad breath. Don't get too
close to the speaker because the speaker might actually melt.
(31:33):
And so I'm going to suggest which I do and
have for well, I've known these people as Zelman's for
thirty years. I mean this is family, and a couple
of years now I've been talking about Zelman's minte Mouth
because well, they created Zelmons and it's all about your
breath and having fresh breath, which most of us want, fresh,
(31:57):
clean breath that lasts for hours and hours. And here's
what Zelman's does. It's a little capsule that has parsley
seed oil in it. It's covered with mint, nice strong
min So we pop two or three in your mouth
and you suck on the mint part like any other mint.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Then you swallow the capsule and it goes to work
in your gut.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Because a lot of people don't realize bad breadth also
comes from your stomach. I mean the food goes down there,
the garlic, the onions, and it burns and it churns
and the acids in your stomach, and that creates bad
breath too, and Zelmans takes care of that also, and
no mint in the world does that. So Zelman's, where
do you get it? Not at Walmart, not a Trader Joe's,
(32:35):
not a costco. You know where you get it at
Zelmans dot com, z E L M I N S
Zellmans dot com.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
This is Handle on the Law. You're listening to Bill
Handle on demand from kf I AM six forty
You're listening to kf I AM six forty, the Bill
Handles show on demand on the iHeartRadio f and Good
Morning Bill Handle Here it is a Saturday morning, three
fun hours. If I handle on the law, complete total
humiliation of you by me, if I can. Sometimes it's
(00:22):
the other way around, depending on the phone call number here,
since we start the show and the top of the
hour always the best time to call. Sometimes we're jammed
and you can't get in for an hour and a half.
So if you'd like to ask a marginal legal question
and to get a marginal legal answer, the number is
(00:44):
eight hundred five to zero one five three four eight
hundred five to two zero one five three four, And
the rules of the game are as always the same.
If you are completely unintelligible cannot be understood, you're right
there at the top of the list.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
If you are.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Without limbs, let's say you are a quadruple amputee, that's
good stuff too, although it's kind of hard to dial
the phone.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Although who dials anymore now?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Just go hey Siri and theoretically answers the phone, although
mine takes forever. And if you are of an ethnicity
that I can make fun of right there top of
the list too, So it's all good. The number eight
hundred five two zero one five three four eight hundred
five two zero one five three four. Keep in mind
(01:36):
this is marginal legal advice. Now before I jump into
the show. I'm not a baseball watcher. I am not
a fan of baseball. But man, last night that Dodger game, Hey,
how about them Dodgers. I gotta tell you, I watched
this saying and show, hey, Otani, who they can't speak
(01:57):
highly enough of, probably is going to be the best
player in the history of the game, both a pitcher
and a and a hitter and now fielder and a hitter,
and the guy is unbelievable, unbelievable. I think last time
there was a pitcher and a hitter that each either
one was a premier position in that position was I
(02:20):
think it was Babe Ruth until he gave up pitching.
So show hey, o Tani both ways, three homers, six strikeouts. Man,
that's something. Okay, that's enough sports talk. I don't do
sports talk, by the way, just to let you know,
but had to do it this time around. Also, here's
a fun contract, seven hundred million dollars over ten years.
(02:42):
Not bad, not bad. You could do worse. The number
eight hundred five two zero one five three fours the
number to call eight hundred five two zero one five
three four. And we want to ramp up and get
going on this as quickly as possible. Eight hundred five
(03:02):
two zero one five three four. Okay, let's do it.
This is handle on the law, marginal legal advice where
I tell you you have absolutely no case.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I love church church leaders who.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Go south and you know molest kids. Not the molestation part,
I mean, that's horrific. But I'm talking about their fall
from grace. And for some reason, it seems to be
the more fundamentalist Christian they are talking morality and family values,
(03:41):
it's the more entertaining it is when they fall. And
by the way, it has happened to a number of them.
And here is the latest out of Oklahoma. There is
a megachurch in actually is a Texas megachurch founder Robert Morris,
and he pleaded guilty in an Oklahoma court to sex
(04:02):
crimes against a girl. The sex crime started in nineteen
eighty two and continued for years. He's sixty four years old,
entered guilty please to five felony accounts of lude or
indecent acts to a child. Now here's the part that
I just don't get. He's going to serve six months
(04:22):
in county jail and then be put on probation for
nine years and six months.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
How when you.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Plead guilty to five felony counts of lud indecent acts
to a child, you only are in jail for six months.
He has to register as a sex offender and has
to pay two hundred and seventy thousand dollars in restitution
to the victim. Where he's gonna get two hundred and
(04:51):
seventy thousand dollars, I have no idea, And that's what
happens these insane restitution numbers. Like the guy who has
been arrested and has been charged with starting the Palisades
fire here in southern California, nine thousand or sixteen thousand
homes and structures went up and twelve people died.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
He's going to pay restitution, of course he is.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Another thing about this is the Megatures founder Robert Morris
did not apologize in court. He pled guilty to molesting
this young girl or by now she's an adult and
didn't apologize at all. Now he's a convicted felon. Of course,
(05:40):
the sentence was suspended, and if he violates the conditions
of probation, he goes right back to court, which is
generally the same. So he admitted or Morris admitted the wrongdoing.
I remember he pled guilty but did not apologize. After
the victim and she allowed her name to be you.
(06:00):
Cindy Klemishire spoke to a blog called the wart Berg Watch,
a blog about sexual abuse within the church, and she
decided to come forward publicly. Usually they do not release
names of victims, and she wants to encourage others who
may be victims to tell their stories. And I'll tell
(06:22):
you right now, you bet there are others. You bet
there are. And she went on to say, and to him,
now she gave a victim statement.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
She's in court staring right at him.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
When you built a megachurch, authored books, gain fame, I
dropped out of college, endured endured divorces, and struggled with
self worth. Yeah, while you twisted your crimes into a
story of infidelity to protect your image, my family and
I were left trying to explain the truth to pastors
(06:57):
who look the other way. Yeah, that's a fun one too.
The Catholic Church rightly was nailed beyond nailed on that one,
where you have the priests who were caught molesting usually
young boys over years and years, and the church protected
them knowing that they did that. Now, to be fair
(07:19):
to the Catholic Church, it has changed around completely Now
it takes every allegation very seriously. All right, enough of that.
I can't believe it was only six months in jail. However,
since he molested a minor. You know, you can get
two weeks if you're in the general population. And it's
(07:40):
not going to be pleasant. Where we get shanked, you
may very well die or seriously get injured.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
All right, let's do it, Paul, Hello, Paul, welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Good morning.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Yes, sir, how are you go ahead?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
I have a question for you. I bought a life
insurance policy recently. I did the process to the phone,
the application process to the phone. I was asked a
series of questions and one of the questions specifically, was
about my cholesterol, and I told him that I had
been diagnosed with cholesterol. Correct. So when I got the
(08:24):
policy in the mail, I went through to the to
the questionnaire, and I saw that he had answered that.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I did not have the high cholesterol.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
So I'm wondering if that's going to affect the coverage
in some way or Okay, let me.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Ask, let me throw a couple of questions. How big?
How big is the policy? Paul? Two hundred and fifty
All right, two hundred fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And what the agent probably did because he's on commission
is slide through that to make sure that you got
the policy now for two hundred and fifty thousand dollars?
Is that enough to argue? Well, here is what you're
looking at. The problem is is let's say you die
(09:15):
because of some issue related to high cholesterol, for example
a stroke or a heart attack.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That may be an issue.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So the other side of it is if you go
in and say, oh, no, I have high cholesterol, they
may not accept you or charge higher premiums.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
So what does six and one half a dozen of
the other.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
If it is wrong the application, because you're supposed to
look at it carefully and there is an error and
we're talking about your health, they could bounce it. They could,
so you know, you're better off dying of something else.
How's your relationship with your Are you married?
Speaker 5 (09:56):
I am married?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yes, you are married?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Kids, Yes, sir, I do I have kids?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
How old? How old are the kids?
Speaker 5 (10:06):
Twenty four, seventeen and twelve?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
All right, Well, I'm just going to suggest an easier
way for you to family to collect is simply to,
you know, stick a gun in your mouth and blow
your brains out. Then they can't argue collect. Then they
cannot argue cholesterol. So don't die of a heart attack,
don't die of a stroke. You know, if you're going
to die, step in front of an Amazon car truck
(10:29):
or whatever. I don't know if they were going to
say anything or not. And the other situation is no,
I'll tell you the guy who sent you the policy
is going to lie about what you said over the phone.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You know what. I don't know which way to go.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Can they bounce you, yeah, and say you misrepresented your
health and you died of exactly what we asked you,
and you said that you didn't have that problem.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
So it's your choice.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You know, I know that's kind of a weird answer,
but it's so yeah, or an equivocal answer or equivocal answer.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
All right, let's go ahead and take our first break.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
This is Handle on the Law, Kay Pie handle here
on Saturday morning, number eight hundred five two zero one
five three four eight hundred five two zero one five
three four and welcome back. Handle on the Law Marginal
Legal Advice.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Alan. Hello, Alan, welcome to the program.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Thanks Bill. My question is should I have my attorney
draw up a document that with one of my grandchildren.
I want to give them their inheritance now, but that
grandchild needs to know that that's all they're going to get.
Long story short eight grand'll go ahead, sir, Yeah, No,
(11:55):
you don't have to.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
No, you don't need an attorney.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
You just you know what you do. You tell them, hey,
I'm going to give you some money now, you're not
going to be in the will. And what you do
is you have an attorney right the trust or the will.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Because you have to.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Specifically disinherit him, because if you're leaving all the grandkids
money and he doesn't get the money, that he is
going to sue for under the will. What you want
to do is very carefully say that you are being
disinherited under this will, and then you add the language
(12:33):
because you already receive the money Henry Ford, not Henry Ford.
Oh my god, oh god, I forgot Can you imagine
I forgot this name? Big actor?
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Wow? By just one of those mind breaks.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
But anyway, okay, major actor, and I'll get the name,
and you're gonna know exactly what I'm talking about. His
daughter also a huge actress. She was in clute and
the name just draws me. So anyway, he left a
pile of money and didn't leave a dinder. Yes, thank you,
(13:09):
Henry Fonda, thank you much. And his daughter. So he
left a pile of money to his family and disinherited her,
and did so by saying, she is well off, she
makes enough money that she doesn't need my money. So
it wasn't a I want to disinherit. It was just
(13:30):
explained why he disinherited her in a good way. What
ends up happening. And here is the way. Here the
way the rules work. If you have eight grandkids and
you leave one out, that one out is going to
can come right back and contest everything and say you
forgot to put me in.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I'm entitled.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I mean, that's just happens, especially if you're talking a
large sum of money.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
That part you want that part.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You want to get an attorney to right, So yeah,
I would get in attorney or a to write either
a trust or a will under that for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Robert, Hello, Robert, welcome.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
I have got a couple of buildings in Los Angeles
that are innundated with homeless encampment and has been that
way for five years. And this year, well this is
nobody has come out from the city. They've made four
different appointments to come out and clean this year. I've
driven down there and waited all day for them to
(14:32):
show up. They never showed up four different times, and
I keep talking to them. I don't know. It's terrible.
The homeless are dumping laws, sewage daily in the streets,
stealing electricity from the poles, stealing water from the fire hydrants,
and the trash in some places is taller than six feet.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Okay, I got it. I got it.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
And the city won't come out and do anything, which
they don't do. And when they do, these people come
right back. Are they on your property?
Speaker 6 (15:04):
No rights the street?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
So yeah, yeah, that's that is that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Because if they were near your property, say a sidewalk
in front of your property, even on it I mean
they're not. The authorities aren't going to do anything anymore.
Sometimes they do. I just say, you clean the sidewalk
with a with a high pressure hose six times a day,
but across the street and the city won't do anything
about it.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
God, that's a mess. Uh Are they are they in front.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Of other properties, other apartment buildings, businesses? Yes, okay, well
are they doing Are they doing anything?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Okay? Are they doing anything? The owners of the buildings
across the.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Street they try and they call the authorities too, and
they call the authorities too, right, all right, Well, I'm
it's it's a mess when when the authorities don't want
to do anything and they're overwhelmed, I mean totally overwhelmed.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
And I had that happen in my house.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
But it's it was a pretty nice neighborhood, and I
was very lucky because a city councilman happened to live
in my neighborhood. So there was an encampment under the
bridge where I get off the freeway and I go
under the overpass, huge encampment there. Cleaned up almost immediately.
(16:30):
But that was a councilman who lived in the neighborhood.
You know, all you can do is keep on trying.
I mean there's and even if they rouse those people,
you just need as much pressure. Have you talked to
the city councilman who represents your district.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Emails? Yes, and they're representatives.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
You know you keep I think you keep on pushing,
You keep on pushing, and mentioned that you're a constituent
and you say to that that that the office, because
they always have a representative and ambunsman that does voter
relations is say hey, you know what, I'm gonna go
crazy to make sure that this guy is not elected.
(17:11):
You've got an enemy on your hands. You have to
help your constituents. That's basically all you can do. You
can get restraining orders. Okay, now what so the police
come in, they uphold the restraining order, out, they go.
Next day, they come back in. So you know, there's
no good answer that I mean, I I'm fine that
there's no good answer because my neighborhood is great.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
So I mean, do I really care? This is Handle
on the Law. You're listening to Bill Handle on demand
from KFI AM six forty KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Bill Handle here Saturday morning, phone number eight hundred five
two zero one five three four. Eight hundred five two
zero one five three four. Now we are off to
a fairly slow start this morning. Sometimes not sometimes yes,
So let me do this, Sam.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Let's give a preview, hold.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
On a minute of what's going to happen in the
event people call up. See, this is one of the
things I love doing this show. I really do. But
I'm unfortunately at your beck and call. This is why
I don't take phone calls Monday through Friday on my show.
I just talk and I'm not going to talk for
three hours on Saturday. I'm done talking by Friday. And no, nope, nope,
(18:30):
close enough. Yeah, maybe we should cut to the traffic.
But anyway, the phone number is eight hundred five to
two zero one five to three four. And if you
don't call, you know what happens. Sam.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
That's correct, that's correct. Okay, that was.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Just an intro as to what's going to happen. All right,
fair enough, eight hundred five to zero one five to
three four. Let's go to it. Let's go through the
phone calls. Welcome back, Handle on the law Mark Legal Advice. Veronica. Hello, Veronica,
welcome to the show.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Hi Bill, I'm renting a very expensive condo in Orange County.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Okay, what's what's what's expensive.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
About four thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Now, I want to make a point here for people
that are listing in other parts of the country. Four
thousand dollars, As Veronica says.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
It's very expensive.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It may be a lot of money, which it is,
but relative to the cost of rentals in southern California,
that is not outrageous. Now, if you go to Tennessee,
for example, what you're going to get is a six
bedroom house on five acres of land with three cars
(19:49):
on cinder blocks in the front yard instead of just
one and all the possums.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Do you could ever eat?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
So moving on, moving on, Okay, thousand month condo and
what's going on?
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Well, the dishwasher is not working.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
It came furnished with the dishwasher.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
No refrigerator.
Speaker 6 (20:08):
SED buy a big refrigerator.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
But the dishrushers, you know, so rusty. It feels like
a safety hazard. And I want to know if the
landlord's responsible for changing that or do I have to
replace it?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I would say, I would say the landlord is responsible,
and I'll tell you why, because he supplied it. All right,
If he did not supply it, you'd be responsible because
that's not considered a true necessity.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Incidentally, they just changed.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
The law in La County or maybe the state of California,
in which now landlords must supply a refrigerator because too often,
like in your case, Veronica, here comes the apartment of
the condo, no refrigerator, and you now buy a refrigerator.
So let's say you now have to move someplace else.
(20:57):
The hassle of moving a refrigerator is astronomical, and there's
a good chance that a rental has a refrigerator refrigerator there,
so you're in the minority.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
So I would say, yeah, and have.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
You contacted your landlord and saying this is a rusty
old piece of crap and I'm paying four thousand dollars a.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Month, not yet, but I want to that's what you
want to do. Yeah, No, that's what you want to do. Legally. Yeah,
I think he does because he offered it.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
It's part of the apartment or the condo, and you
bought it and where you bought everything that was in it,
and it all has to work. If he didn't supply one, eh,
you know, he doesn't have to buy law supply one,
but all, who's going to rent a you know, four
thousand dollars place without a dishwasher? Frankly, I'm shocked that
he didn't put in a refrigerator there that you brought
(21:51):
in your own.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
How much have you spent for the fridge?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
I think there's about four thousand dollars for.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
The dollars for a fridge.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So what happens is, uh, well, you got one of
the top top top ones. So let me ask you,
what do you do when you leave there and you
go someplace else because you're renting, what do you do
with your what do you do with your four.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Thousand dollars refrigerator? I'm going to Yeah, no kidding. See,
that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
That's why the law now says refrigerators I have to
be offered because that is the big issue.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
So how long have you been in How long have
you been in your condo?
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I said March so a little over six months.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
If you'd waited six months and just bought one of
those Igloo coolers for six months, you would have been fine.
You would have gotten a new refrigerator. Anyway, that's the answer.
A couple of things are absolutely mandatory, and that is
the heating has to work.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
That's by law, no issue. You have to have hot water.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You can't have leaks, you can't have broken windows that
the landlord must fix that. Dishwashers, No, doesn't even have
to supply one, but if he does, you your rental
includes a working dishwasher.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Devon, Hi, Devon, Hey, what's going on with bial?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I'm doing a show. What's going on with you? You picked
up the phone and you're calling me? All right, we
got that one straightened out, you know what, Devin, let
me do this. Let me stick you on hold because
I don't want to knock you off too soon.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Okay, So we'll be right. I'll be right back with Devon.

And before we take the break, I'm going to tell
you about the Pain Game Podcast. The Pain Game Podcast
is hosted by Lindsey and I know her very well,
being married to her and the guests that she have
have lived with, dealt with treated people living in pain,
and that's what she does. She lives in chronic pain
(23:52):
twenty four to seven and it's really difficult to live with.
So what she did is create the Pain Game Podcast
to help others. And with that she helps herself. Every
episode ends with a message of hope, and you're going
to quickly understand the show is about giving pain purpose.
I know that sounds weird, but you'll understand when you
listen to the show. The Pain Game Podcast Season three
(24:15):
is wrapping up soon. The next episode is about turning trauma,
because this is about pain and trauma, turning trauma into
triumph with San Diego attorney al Alreen hay Quiz, who's
twenty three years experience fighting for women who have endured
sexual abuse, harassment, discrimination, and she's recovered millions for her clients,
(24:36):
including taking on President Trump and getting the Trump University's
victims compensated. So she's really good. So it's worth a
male female. If you have someone in your life who
is suffering from chronic pain, you really want to jump
on this. And unfortunately you even lose people, too many
(24:58):
people with chronic pain, or they commit suicide.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
It's that tough.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yes, Yes, can you hear me? I, sir, cant can
you hear me?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I sure can't?
Speaker 3 (27:39):
About that? No, It's okay, I have I appreciate it. Okay.
I have two legal questions. One is an uninhabitable question
and living conditions, and the other is about the lemon
lows in California. Okay, Number one on the body two
thousand Leving used to BMW. That was July the twenty
(28:00):
ninth this year, and then September the thirtieth, the transmission
completely blew up.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Okay, all right, Devin, let me let me, let me
ask some real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
I'm gonna interrupt you for a moment, sir, and that
is let's start with, did you buy it from a dealership?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yes? It was?
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Okay, good, that helps us, sir, okay.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
And so the transmission goes out, well, just a few
months after the you buy the car, right.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Yes, sir, okay, about forty forty five days, the car
goes up the train.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Okay, fair enough. And the year of the car, and
what's the what what's the year of the car?
Speaker 3 (28:37):
It's a two thousand and it was a two thousand
and he lived in bm W.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that's the issue. Uh is
the car is that old? So if it was, if
it was three or four years old, you'd be okay.
So I'm gonna here's the advice i'm gonna give you.
I do commercials for a Lemon law lawyer, and that's
the specialty that you want to talk to, and they'll
obviously talk to you for free. The only issue you
(29:04):
have is the age of the car and how far
back the Lemon law goes and I don't think it's statutory.
It maybe where it says it's six years or five years.
I don't know the answer to that. But that's an
easy answer to get with a Lemon law lawyer. But
you have to make sure you go to a Lemon
law lawyer because it is a specialty onto itself.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
So how's that for advice? Talk to a lawyer knows
what the hell he's doing.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Now your next question, okay, my next question. You know
I've been calling you for about two years now dealing
with this landlord situation, uninhabitable living conditions, the roaches, the mold,
the road in infestation. We went to court the lenn
the judge told the landlord he needed to mediate the mold,
(29:49):
right coach is YadA YadA. He ends up painting over the.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Mold and oh yeah, I remember that. Yeah, I remember that.
And I told you to just stop paying the rent.
Either move out and you can can hit him from
moving expenses, or just stop paying the rent.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Yes, so I will tell you with the marginal legal
advice you did give, you don't get enough credit because
he ended up offering me fifteen thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yeah, no, that's what happened.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
They have to.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yeah, yeah, that's the way it works. The lost pretty stiff.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You can't have all You can't have mice running around
and eating your kids.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Yeah, well that's true. Now this is the issue, this issue,
So I am suing. I am suing the landlord. Okay,
I'm taking him to court. I just finished my deposition
here about two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Uh huh.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
It's been about sixty days since I've moved out. Number one,
he hasn't returned to security deposit. And number two, I'm
just curious what's the outcome in the case that's.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Going to be.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I mean, he's not going to return the security deposit.
It's all part of the lawsuit. All of it is
part of the lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
So the outcome is you're probably going to get some money,
and some pretty good money. So you're gonna do okay.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
And the attorney said she wanted to start at one
hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Yeah, I know, that's just an attorney saying.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Yeah, that's just an attorney saying one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars. I don't know why it wasn't fifteen million.
That's just an attorney blowing smoke, but you're going to
get thousands of dollars. You are going to get thousands
of dollars, no question about that. Before we go, I
want to talk about your bad breath. Don't get too
close to the speaker because the speaker might actually melt.
(31:33):
And so I'm going to suggest which I do and
have for well, I've known these people as Zelman's for
thirty years. I mean this is family, and a couple
of years now I've been talking about Zelman's minte Mouth
because well, they created Zelmons and it's all about your
breath and having fresh breath, which most of us want, fresh,
(31:57):
clean breath that lasts for hours and hours. And here's
what Zelman's does. It's a little capsule that has parsley
seed oil in it. It's covered with mint, nice strong
min So we pop two or three in your mouth
and you suck on the mint part like any other mint.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Then you swallow the capsule and it goes to work
in your gut.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Because a lot of people don't realize bad breadth also
comes from your stomach. I mean the food goes down there,
the garlic, the onions, and it burns and it churns
and the acids in your stomach, and that creates bad
breath too, and Zelmans takes care of that also, and
no mint in the world does that. So Zelman's, where
do you get it? Not at Walmart, not a Trader Joe's,
(32:35):
not a costco. You know where you get it at
Zelmans dot com, z E L M I N S
Zellmans dot com.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
This is Handle on the Law. You're listening to Bill
