Legal Answers
8 Questions Answered
Q. Can you answer a music question
A: Not without more specigic information about the situation, law, rights, or violations involved. What is the music connection?
Q. As a life coach I'd like to include a link to a published song I'd send my client post-session for inspiration.
A: This question is for a trademark and copyright lawyer, as they are specially qualified and licensed to opine on it. However, generally speaking from my experience, if the use is not for profit or to promote you or your business, but rather, educational as a reference for your student, it does not infringe or trigger an obligation to pay a royalty. You should confirm this with a copyright and trademark lawyer, nonetheless, to be certain.
Q. Lost racket at sports club,found by employee, left in their office and then disappeared from there. Can I take action?
A: Yes, you can bring an action for replevin to return your personal property to you. That email acknowledging possession is an indication of having possession of your chattel. Assuming the coach is an employee, the owner of the club is responsible also, so sue them both. If the racket is worth less than $3,000, you can file a legal action in your local small claims Village or Town Justice Court under the Uniform Justice Court Act - UJC § 202 and do not need to hire an attorney to do it, though it may be worthwhile.
