- A: Nowadays most if not all traffic pre-trial conferences or trials are done via Zoom virtual conference. Alternatively, they may be done by dial in. Rarely, at least in the Florida counties I practice in, they are done in person.

It likely doesn't matter if he uses your insurance or his mothers insurance, I would just confirm a high policy limit and coverage for those circumstances.

In addition, the landlord has to comply with the procedural obligations for making a claim under the landlord tenant act which includes in part sending the formal notice within 30 days. Otherwise, Landlord waives his right to the claim. Lastly, he may not allow you to see the move-out report now, but it will certainly need to be produced if the matter goes into litigation. The important lesson here is ALWAYS take photos of the entire unit when you ... Read More
