    The Law is Mostly for the Rich, Right?

    Here is the operative law 

     

    Mobile Residency Law

    California Civil Code Div. 2 Part 2

    Chapter 2.5

    Section 799.11

    799.11 INSTALLATION OF ACCOMMODATIONS FOR THE DISABLED The ownership or management shall not prohibit a homeowner or resident from installing accommodations for the disabled on the home or the site, lot, or space on which the mobilehome is located, including, but not limited to, ramps or handrails on the outside of the home, as long as the installation of those facilities complies with code, as determined by an enforcement agency, and those facilities are installed pursuant to a permit, if required for the installation, issued by the enforcement agency. The management may require that the accommodations installed pursuant to this section be removed by the current homeowner at the time the mobilehome is removed from the park or pursuant to a written agreement between the current homeowner and the management prior to the completion of the resale of the mobilehome in place in the park. This section is not exclusive and shall not be construed to condition, affect, or supersede any other provision of law or regulation relating to accessibility or accommodation for the disabled. (Added by Stats. 2008, Chap. 170 (SB 1107, Correa), eff. 1/1/2009)  

     

    I was right. As suspected, the landlord's permission is not necessary... unless you failed to post some other part of the law which requires it.

     

    Did you see my comment about the lease agreement?

    I then looked into filling the suit myself. Once more the game is rigged against the poor. There are special procedural rules in operation for each type of court. Of you have no lawyer, and they do, they will make it impossible for you to follow these arcane rules, and the judges have no patience..... This ain't the movies!!! If you flail about, they give summary judgment against you!!!

    Yes, there are dozens of agencies and people to "check with" and I have. They all say the same thing: the law is clearly on my side, but there is no enforcement possible short of me suing. I did call lawyers and they start at $400/,hr. I once had a lawyer file some simple motions and he took about 14 hours total. And that is when the defendant didn't fight back! My park owner has sued other companies and the public record shows 35 filings! I could never ever afford 36 filings!! Lol he will bash me over the skull with his money.

    BTW, I'm not asking them to pay for the ramp. I will be having it built on my dime. He simply won't give me the written permission for "construction" which is in my lease. He has no cost to suffer at all. When I sell, I will be removing the ramp on my dime! He's just being a typical rich pr##ick!! Lol

    I'm having a dispute with a landlord over disability access to a mobile home. The so called law is clearly in my favor. He must grant me the right to build a ramp. However, they're is no enforcement to all these disability law, and the ultra rich owners knows this. So, they just say no, and they know you can't afford the tens off thousands in legal fees ($485/hr!) to get a court order! It's no wonder so many people despise the rich.

    We have thousands of laws that have no enforcement mechanism. Well, unless you are rich.

    Rant off!! Lol!!!

    I've been PayPal customer since day one. I've done about 100 transactions, and only one was bad. But, that one was distressing for days, because my generation is used to being able to get a responsible person on the phone. We trust humans interaction and distrust automated action.

    PayPal is a good service.... Until it goes bad. When it does, you discover you are tied to a personless business...a machine with no human enter point. There no customer service because no one talks to customers.

    the interest is up and the stock market's down...

    The Chinese economy, after growing at a fast clip for 15 years, has slowed significantly. American companies who export rely on all retail growth from China. Apple for instance, relies on growth out of China. When the growth stops, the stocks begin to be shorted. China is reportedly 30% of Apple revenue. Apple is the highest valued company in the world. 

     

    Its a good time to buy stocks in quality companies.

    I heard great things about this show, but haven't watched yet: Turn: Washington's spies.

    Anyone seen it?

    Well, I watched the first episode of this show. It's a historical dreams during the Revolutionary War. I really liked it a lot. That era doesn't get a lot of TV programs. A+

    There are people with a rating of 100 on the log power scale, and people with a rating of 1. They all walk around in the same world. So obviously, fairness is not even a remotely logical idea! LOL 

     

    Pick up a bat, and see if you can get a hit off a Chapman fastball. Then, after that, talk about fairness in life. LOL!!

    Tech is beginning to kill personal productivity by wasting vast swatches of time on the nuts and bolts holding it together. The number of time sinkholes is growing exponentially with each new 'tie in."

    Because fixing stuff cuts into profit margins...

     

    It's called "externalizing costs." Instead of actually debugging the software at their cost, they let customers do it at their cost. 

     

    I always wonder how many billions of man hours on earth have been wasted turning little knobs in Miscrosft Windows? And it's JUST an OS! It doesn't even produce anything! Imagine spending hundreds of hours each year rewiring the ignition switch in your car!! Let's make the wires RED now! Let's make the key turn the OTHER WaY~~~ YIPPEEE!!!

    cubicle coffee: bad form, or perfectly normal? :)

    Are you saying this brewer is a cubicle next to yours?

    Yeah it's the cube next to me. I guess I'm just spoiled, I was here in the same spot in the late 90's but 12-14 years ago I got moved into a large room that four of us shared. I had a cube then but it was like backwards, each of us were in a corner and the next guy over was over 20' away, and the most I could ever hear was a few other people.

    Due to growing pains we got moved and absorbed into the big cube farm again so now I'm surrounded by people. There is a young guy next to me who does the brewing. Another guy across the walkway wears headphones to listen to music, except he beats his pen against the desk hard and clicks it to the beat of the music so all I hear is this whacking and clicking. Another guy has the keyboard from hell, it must be 20 years old, one of those clicky ones that is very loud. I'm next to some industrial sized air conditioners that sound like a freight train. It's driving me crazy. Freight trains, clicking, conversations, ink pen drumming, eating, bubbling, coffee aroma, people walking by... grrrr. I liked the solitude at my old desk.

     

    i hate noise pollution, and light pollution at night. smelll pollution can be bad too, once in a while it is ok. the other day i had a meeting with a lady and i thought for sure i would begin choking due to her perfume. i had to step back and hold in a caugh. i dunno man, everyone's got their thng. my special irritiation is outdoor adverts that spoil the landscape. i gots lotsa gripes. LOL! but, i just carry on.
