If the purchase is to occur " upon expiry of the term" it would seem that any meaningful notice would need to be before that date, and so the three-month notice period would be ending at the expiry of …

It depends where one does this. In the UK, I believe it is a crime to falsely claim to be the monarch. Lady Jane Grey was beheaded for doing so. The charge was treason. In any other places it is proba …

I think the key word here is "assume". A person, N, who is clearly the next of kin of a recently deceased person D may not assume that s/he is D's sole heir, or indeed is D's heir at all. N must wait …

If the translation is in fact in the public domain, and free of copyright, you may freely quote as much of it as you please. You are not even legally required to provide proper attribution, although i …

This will depend on several things. The first is the exact wording of your contract. Does it say Joe must not employ or engage with any employee of Widgets Inc for 12 months following the end of Joe' …

When a company is dissolved, someone takes over the company's asserts, often the creditors, or they may be sold for what they will bring. Failing anyone else, it may be the crown. Assuming that the co …

Both of the pages linked in the question are from the ICO. The other exemptions listed on the first page linked but not on the second, seem to be handled on other pages of the self-assessment tool. I …

This is going to depend on the exact wording of Y's will. If that will simply said "I leave all my shares of Company C to my grandchildren" they will not get the money, even though it was derived from …

That would depend on just what is meant by "copied another journalist's work substantially". One may not, under UK copyright law (or indeed under any copyright law) simply copy the words and phrases u …

The term "defamation" describes an untrue statement that’s been presented as fact and causes harm to the character of the person it describes. In some jurisdictions an admittedly true statement can …

In general, permission is not granted to enter the premises of another by climbing a fence unless it is explicitly granted. That the fence is on your property, but adjacent to the school's property, i …
