Greedy ass vultures! posted by: wolfen (reply) post date: 07.08.08 (10:31 pm) Yeah, they're trying to act sweet but they're totally trying to screw you. That is a terrible situation. Sorry you're going through all of this, but you must be firm or your dad's stuff will be sold or otherwise dispatched without your knowledge. Don't be "niced" out of your dad's stuff. posted by: auntconi (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (4:55 am) You make reference to 'her time of grief' ~ well you have grief as well! It was your father who passed and they seem to be be using your kindness to their advantage. There is no reason for them to be in your father's place and if Cindy doesn't want to buy it, then sell it yourself and get things settled. Oh I wish you well in this troublesome situation. I so hate to see people taking advantage of others for their own gain. I will quit now ~ but will keep you in thought/prayer that you can get this resolved w/o too much more heartache! ((hugs)) posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (9:57 am) Reply to: PirateGirl I have a lawyer (who is more like a notary public, I think). I can't seem to do much at this point until my dad's death certificate arrives and then I can take over his estate. My dad didn't have a legal will, and the "will" he did leave behind outlined all his wishes, including that everything that was his is now mine. And that Cindy can only live in his home ALONE! posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (9:58 am) Reply to: wolfen I just wish they weren't living there! Cindy has her own empty condo which she was going to sell, but now it looks like she just wants to camp out in my dad's place. Hopefully I will be able to take full control of all my dad's possessions shortly. And when that time comes, I think I will just ask her to move even though my dad said she was to be able to live there. She knew he didn't want anyone else living there but her, and in that sense she's already disrespected his wishes. posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (10:00 am) Reply to: auntconi This woman seems to have forgotten that a 30+ year father-daughter relationship takes higher ranking than a 4+ year friendship!! Cindy and her daughter have the point of view that is a home Cindy shared with my father. To me, she was someone living in my father's home...nothing shared! posted by: FinalyFree (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (11:04 am) Ummm I would say NO you don't have to play nice anymore--you've been more than nice it seems to me! posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (11:23 am) Reply to: FinalyFree I really don't like her right now!! This niceness will stop when I either get some legal advice or when I get full control of my dad's possessions!! posted by: twitchy67 (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (2:04 pm) Stop being nice. She's taking advantage. Screw her, it's your dad. Get a lawyer and evict her immediately. Just my happy happy take :) . BTW, thanks for the FB message... posted by: PirateGirl (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (3:33 pm) Reply to: rosietulips So Cindy is just a girlfriend of only 4+ years? - Do you have any idea when you might be getting his death certificate? - and can you go over there now? and take everything in the house? - I mean - if it is to all go to you anyway, then why not go and get it now? - or at least some of it? or do you have to wait for the certificate to do that? - I just feel like the others here do, and don't want to see you being taken advantage of like this. posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (3:57 pm) Reply to: twitchy67 You're welcome! I'm not sure what my legal rights (or hers are, for that matter), which is why I haven't been more direct with her. My lawyer (which is frustrating me) has already taken the POV that she is his common-law partner even though he didn't ask me any details! If I could evict her, I probably would at this point! posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (4:00 pm) Reply to: PirateGirl I think Cindy's been a girlfriend for about 4 years, but she was only the go-to girlfriend when my dad's (married) girlfriend wasn't in the picture. After the married girlfriend decided to stay with her husband, Cindy became the new girlfriend (even though my dad never called her that), and that is when she moved in. I am on pins and needles waiting for this death certificate! It is supposed to be ready "soon". Without it, I can't go through the legal process before I can be named Executor of my dad's estate. Who knows how long the legal process will take once I get the death certificate! I could go and take stuff from my dad's place now, and I hadn't really taken anything yet because I have nowhere to store it! posted by: PirateGirl (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (4:29 pm) Reply to: rosietulips I hate to say it, but I really think even without the storage space you should go and get your Dad's things - especially the things that mean the most to you. - Cindy and her kids have already compromised any kind of trust there may have been between you. - Do you have a key to his place so that you can go when they aren't there at your Dad's? - You can call them and say "Gee I'm sorry, but I came over and took my Dad's things, I'm sure you understand me wanting to get them" - They will just have to deal with it, just like you did with your Dad's video game! - They don't have any legal rights to anything there that he owns anyway! - **OH! - and even if you end up going over there, when they are there too - whatever you do, DON'T call them ahead of time so they don't know your are coming over! - You don't want to give them any more opportunity to take anything else that is not theirs - or - to have it mysteriously dissappear! - and you know what? - I think I would even tell Cindy - (or her daughter) - that they need to either give you back the game or replace it with their own money. - legally, they have stolen it! Grrrrrrrrrr! posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (4:45 pm) Reply to: PirateGirl Wouldn't it great if I just sent a bunch of movers to take everything?? BWAHAHAHA I do have a key to my dad's place. I've just been respectful to let them know ahead of time about when I'm going over...just like a landlord is supposed to do! I don't know of any nice way to tell them that anything in my dad's place is now mine. And yes, legally, Cindy's daughter did steal!! Ugh, it just gets my goat how she thinks she can prance in there and live as though it's her place. Cindy and her daughter were barely on speaking terms until my dad passed away. posted by: PirateGirl (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (6:20 pm) Reply to: rosietulips Sounds like Cindy's daughter is using Cindy, and you too! This is your Dad's life, and your's - not Cindy's daughter's.....It's sad that here you were trying to be respectful, but get none in return, - and even after something so hard to go through as you're Dad passing! They have no respect at all!...I vote for the moving truck! posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (10:21 pm) Reply to: PirateGirl I can't wait for Cindy's daughter to go back to Hong Kong. I hope she leaves before Cindy is due for her HK trip in November. posted by: auntconi (reply) post date: 07.09.08 (11:35 pm) Reply to: rosietulips ~ Oh my goodness girl! This just seems to get more involved, or be more involved than I had originally thought! The remark of common-law-partner ~ I didn't think that was a legal status until after ten years, or maybe five years ~ but I think I'd see if you could find something about that, for leverage perhaps. I hope Cindy's daughter isn't waiting for November to return to Hong Kong with Cindy. Also, why is Cindy going to HK in November? For a visit? I so wish you could get the paperwork and 'get on with the program' so to speak! ((hugs)) posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.10.08 (8:10 am) Reply to: auntconi Yes, in BC, Canada, I think it's common-law status after 1 year, but when it comes to estates, the status is after 2 years. Someone keeps telling me Cindy's daughter has a boyfriend and wouldn't stay here for that long of a visit. Cindy needs to go back to Hong Kong for her brother's wedding in the fall. Too bad she won't be going any sooner! posted by: twitchy67 (reply) post date: 07.10.08 (9:44 am) From a tax and division of assets perspective, common law in Canada as a whole is 1 year. I know cuz I needed to know at one point. Regarding estates, that I don't know for sure. posted by: rosietulips (reply) post date: 07.10.08 (10:21 am) Reply to: twitchy67 Estate division is 2 years here. posted by: PirateGirl (reply) post date: 07.10.08 (3:11 pm) Reply to: rosietulips I has me a fast ship, and know some Pirates who would be more than happy to see that Cindy's daughter gets back to HK sooner than Nov.! Ok - I'm kidding - but that would be pretty handy! ;) Hope she leaves soon too! - The sooner the BETTER! ARRRRRGH! ;D |
