<p>I do not think your landlord can evict you for short stays like this. Your friend would have to move in or stay long term to violate the tenancy agreement, but if you do run into problems here&#39;s the landlord tenancy website for your region <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.justice.gov.sk.ca/officeofresidentialtenancies" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.justice.gov.sk.ca/o.....ltenancies</a></p>

	<description><![CDATA[You guys might be interested in my blog. I&#39;m a former police officer in  Ontario (traffic was my specialty) who&#39;s now going to law school to  become a defence lawyer. Now I write about about a number of things  including debunking police myths, traffic enforcement and providing  information on new laws and legal issues. My last couple posts were  about whether an officer can still give you a ticket if they don&#39;t have  their hat on, whether police have to show you the number on the radar  and whether police have quotas of tickets. If you&#39;re interested check it  out!<br /> <br /> <a href="http://simonborys.wordpress.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://simonborys.wordpress.com</a><br /> <br /> Please feel free to contact me through my blog or email at <a href="mailto:simonborys@yahoo.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">simonborys@yahoo.com</a>. I&#39;m always  looking for new ideas to write about so just tell me what you&#39;d like to  see.

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Dear Andrew,</p>
<p>You can sign the contract. The Non-compete clause doesn&#39;t really prevent you from working in the  industry, unless you go work for a company that makes the same product  or competes for the same contract as your former business.That kind of contract won&#39;t stand up in court, but  your ex-employers won&#39;t even bother going after you unless you are  hurting their business directly.</p>

<br />
In most Canadian provinces, divorce is handled by the Superior Court of  Justice known as the Supreme Court. Go to <a href="/canada-divorce-forms" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this page</a> for the forms you have to file for divorce depending on the province you live in. <br />

	<title>Maggie on Need Advice: How to Serve AWOL Defendent</title>

	<guid isPermaLink="true">http://legalcanadacommunity.com/forum/small-claims-court/need-advice-how-to-serve-awol-defendent/#p192</guid>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how I could serve a Plaintiff&#39;s Claim on a defendant that has been evading being served.</p>
<p>I tried FedEx, but the outcome was "client not available" each time FedEx tried to deliver the documents.</p>
<p>After several attempts, FedEx left a note at the defendent&#39;s door and followed up with a phone call to the defendent indicating that they can pick up the package at the local FedEx location, however, it&#39;s been one week, and the package has not been picked up.</p>
<p>I tried door-knocking myself, at several different hours of the day... and received no response... or the defendent wouldn&#39;t open the door. Not to mention, getting into the defendent&#39;s condo building, without buzzing him, and getting past security was a feat in itself!</p>
<p>Does anyone know how I can serve the documents on him, in accordance with the small claims court rules of service, in a way that he will surely get the documents without me having to continue trying to track him down to serve them personally? (I contemplated hiring a&#160;process server, but they are quite costly and I don&#39;t have the financial means for that right now.)</p>
<p>Any help is greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>(I know that in other courts, simply mailing the documents to be served or sending them by courrier with a receipt that they have been sent&#160;is sufficient, but supposedly this isn&#39;t the case in SCC.)</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>I live in Alberta and I recently resigned from my job. &#160;While finishing out my last two weeks I was presented with an employment contract and a very long Non-compete. &#160;They just kept putting this stuff off and now they want to have me sign them.</p>
<br />
<p>I am concerned that it may affect my new employment and I can&#39;t see why I would sign it. &#160;DO they have any legal ability to make me sign now that I am leaving?</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><br /> How long has your ex wife been living in Florida? From what I understood she wouldn&#39;t be able to file anything in the courts until she has been living there for 6 months. Has she been there for at least six months?</p>
<p><br /> The very first thing I would suggest to you do is seek an order having your daughter returned to Edmonton until the hearing on relocation. <br /><br />As for just going to get her...I personally think it could be a bad idea just because it would cause more problems for you son as your ex wife would involve police etc and it may even may make more problems for you in the long run with custody matters as you would be breaking the law. <br /><br /></p>

	<description><![CDATA[I desperately want to bring my son back to Edmonton. My ex-wife moved my son who is 9 years old to Florida without my consent. Recently my son was hysterically crying about coming back to Edmonton when he is so upset it hurts and breaks my heart even more. He said he hates Florida and his mom threw his paintings he made on the floor and told him to go back to edmonton and stop making her miserable&#8221;. If she doesnt want him any more bring him back to me I am desperate for him<br /> The last two emails I got from my current lawyer:<br />1. &#8220;I cannot do anything until the court sign and faxes the order to show cause to my office. I should also let you know that your wife&#39;s lawyer has filed (a similarly as of yet unsigned) order to show cause for the child support and legal fees owed. I shall be opposing said motion.<br />2. I have now just received your wife&#39;s motion, which essentially seeks permission to relocate to florida and additional attorney fees. I need you to come into the office as soon as possible, take a copy of the motion with you, review it thoroughly and provide a point by point response(via e-mail) to the arguments of the attorney and your wife, by this weekend. I will therafter prepare a set of opposition papers for you to sign next week.<br />There is no doubt in my mind that there will now be a &#39;double&#39; trial- for relocation(her request) and custody(your request).<br />Having just recently tried such a relocation case, please be advised this will be very expensive, if we have to prepare and/or proceed to trial.<br /><br />I am also thinking that maybe I should be just fighting for RELOCATION to edmonton and not custody, or just going down to FL and bringing her back so at least she is safe and happy? She did it to me didnt she!<br />
