General Q&A: 13/08/2025

00:01:08 Kohar: Q: What is the proper legal course of action when a postal item is addressed not to the natural person concerned, but to a fictitious or otherwise non-natural entity — for example, where the addressee appears as “DOE JOHN” or “Mr. JOHN DOE”, or where the street or locality is rendered entirely in capital letters? Does the opening and answering of such correspondence imply acceptance of the designation and, by implication, representation of the fictitious entity, or should the item be returned unopened? If the latter, on what legal basis is such a return to be effected?00:06:15 Jonathan: Hi Mark: Q: From your experience or others experience how long do credit card companies take before they sell the liability to a debt collector? I have completed the three demand notice process on our credit card and issued Fiduciary Duty letters on all the CFO’s and they are still refusing to discharge the liability. So I guess its going to the Debt collectors and it would be good to know a timeframe. Thanks

00:06:59 Daisy Doone: QUESTION…. Can you subpoena anyone to any type of court, administrative and judicial? At any level? Or subpoena any paperwork evidence or body cam footage as evidence , say from a police man at just a hearing? In a notice, for example, to a council who is threatening court for alleged outstanding rates…. in answer, could one actually say, after completing the PAP with the usual no reply.. …“fine, and I will counter claim and subpoena mr CEO of council/or mrs mayor to appear to answer the same questions already asked in the pap”, Is subpoena the correct word to write/use? Subpoena, at any stage in the court process?

00:07:58 Brian: I have sent A4V with postage stamps and cheques to the ATO when it sent me Statements of Account for my public company, attaching a letter stating payment using my private identity as the Payer in my capacity of the Principal Creditor. The ATO taken all the payments but only debited the outstanding balance where I paid by cheque. It has ceased sending me Statements of Account since I have used the slip at the bottom to turn into a Bills of Exchange.

Q. Has the ATO breached contract by selectively accepting all my legitimate forms of payment and not deducted my outstanding balance to zero?

Q. What approach do I take legally to defend my company if the ATO accuses me of having outstanding tax liability?

00:12:24 dail bird: Q. We have applied for Sect 118, Duties Act 2001 QLD, exemption in order to transfer our real property into our unregistered family trust. We have stated that the property is to be gifted to the trust. QLD revenue office is stone walling us, stating that the transfer is not a “trust acquisition” and we cannot transfer an asset into our trust without paying duty and they repeatedly claim that because we are transferring our real property into our family trust we are affectively transferring our property to ourselves as we are the trustees and hence our exemption is being denied because they class the transfer as a “creation of trust”. We have told them they seem to be following their rules and not QLD legislation. We went over the first donkey’s head and got the supervising donkey(senior Revenue officer) who is stating the same as the first one. 1) Would we need to step down as trustees and appoint another family member as trustee? 2) Would you know where the definition of trust acquisition in the duties act?

00:30:27 Jonathan: Q: In talking to a bank recently they advised me that they only accept payment by way of legal tender in Aus and they stated a Cheque/BOE or Promissory Note was not legal tender, is their statement correct?

00:46:55 Jonathan: Q: I am sending off a BOE to pay for my car rego and wanted to check, should the BOE be non negotiable and non transferable or is it only the Bill/Statement turned into a contract that is non negotiable and non transferable? Q2: What does non transferable mean when written on the Bill/Offer as I have seen in your module examples?
