Franchise Agreement
California
Can a franchisor make changes to the Franchise Disclosure Document after it has been provided to the potential franchisee?
I am considering purchasing a franchise and have received the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) from the franchisor. However, I recently learned that the franchisor has made some changes to the FDD and I am concerned about the implications of these changes. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for a franchisor to make changes to the FDD after it has been provided to a potential franchisee, and if so, what rights and protections do franchisees have in such situations?
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm sorry about this situation. The short answer? No. That's the short answer. Here is the long answer: To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but recommended. You're saying that the FDD has terms that you did not agree to. Without proof that they offered additional consideration (something of value) to you in exchange and without proof of your agreement, the term would be unenforceable. \ Good luck!

Contract of Service
California
Can a service provider unilaterally modify the terms of a Service Legal Agreement without seeking consent from the customer?
I recently signed up for a service that required me to agree to a Service Legal Agreement, which outlined the terms and conditions of the service. However, after a few months of using the service, the service provider sent out an email stating that they were making significant changes to the Agreement, including increasing fees and reducing the level of service provided. I did not agree to these changes, but the service provider claims that they have the right to modify the Agreement without seeking consent from the customer. I am wondering if this is legally permissible, and if not, what recourse do I have as a customer?
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry that this happened to you. To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but it is recommended. If they are making changes to the agreement, then they have to wait until the term is over (e.g. every 30 days) before they can make any changes. Best of luck to you!

Settlement Agreement
Texas
Can settlement agreement details be public?
I recently entered into a settlement agreement with another party and am concerned about the details of the agreement being made public. I am worried that the agreement may contain sensitive information that could be detrimental to my reputation or interests if it were to be shared publicly. I am looking for guidance on the legal implications of the settlement agreement being made public and what, if anything, I can do to protect myself in this situation.
J.R. S.
Yes, details of a settlement agreement can be made public, especially when a governmental body is involved due to the Public Information or Open Records Act. This act states that the public has a right to access information on government affairs and official acts of public officials and employees unless expressly excepted. However, there are exceptions to this general rule. For instance, disclosure of personnel information that would "constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" is excepted. This is not to say that all settlement agreements are public. In some cases, parties to a settlement agreement may choose to include confidentiality clauses, which prevent the details of the settlement from being disclosed to the public or any third party. The legal rule for agreements between attorneys or parties touching any suit pending is that they will not be enforced unless they are in writing, signed and filed with the papers as part of the record, or unless they are made in open court and entered of record.

What is the maximum that can be sued for in TX small claims from a commercial landlord withholding security deposit in bad faith?
I recently relocated my office and the old locations’ landlord is withholding my security deposit in bad faith, no itemized deductions for any claimed repairs, and no supporting documentation for anything reasons they are using to hold my deposit. I would like to send a demand letter to them and then prepare for small claims. I just have a question on how much i am allowed to sue for. I heard it is something like 3x of the amount, plus all other reasonable fees. Would like some counsel here.
Kelvin R.
Justice Courts have jurisdiction of civil matters in which the amount in controversy is no more than $20,000 (or $10,000 if the case was filed prior to September 1, 2020), exclusive of interest and court costs, but including attorney fees, if any. I presume someone has mentioned to you theories of treble damages recoverable under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) for knowing and intentional deceptive acts. While the DTPA is a broad, ranging statute, it cannot convert what appears a purely a breach of contract claim into a DTPA claim (in most instances) absent an separate act by the landlord. You should consult a contracts / DTPA lawyer who can help you evaluate the viability of your claims. Start with your lease agreement. Hope this helps. Kelvin www.roqski.com

Demand Letter
Georgia
Evidence attached to a demand letter?
I recently received a demand letter from a former business partner. The letter outlines a financial settlement that they are demanding from me. I am unsure if any evidence was included in the demand letter and I would like to know if I need to provide evidence of my own in order to dispute the claim. I would like to understand what kind of evidence is necessary to accompany a demand letter and how it could potentially affect the outcome of the dispute.
Gregory F.
It is always beneficial for a demand letter to include the supporting evidence. Your response should likewise including supporting evidence in an effort to defend against the claims. I strongly suggest you consult with an experienced GA litigation attorney, such as myself, before deciding on your next steps.
