The maximum penalty for speeding 26-34 mph over the limit is 6 months in jail and a $1,500.00 fine - the minimum penalty is court supervision. Of course, the goal is to avoid jail time and a criminal conviction. Traffic school and community service are more common than jail. The ultimate result... Read more »

Doctors thought it was a tumor from ultrasounds I had until I had my cystoscopy done, and we seen that it was part of the foley balloon. So it was in my bladder for thirteen months.
answered on Feb 2, 2023
I'm very sorry to hear the ordeal you have experienced. The foley balloon, once left in your body after completion of the c-section and any further medical care, became what is known as a "retained foreign object". This should never have happened. A medical malpractice claim may be warranted.
I signed a con-compete in Illinois that reads "If for any reason I decide to voluntarily resign from the Company, I acknowledge that the Company requests that I provide at least 10 business days written notice of my intent to leave, the date I want to leave, and (as soon as I know it) the name...

Your question is missing some important information. Having said that, non-competes are not enforceable in Illinois unless they are reasonable under the circumstances. I do not believe that an Illinois court would find the requirement to disclose a new employer as being unreasonable. I suspect that... Read more »

I don't mean to sound rude, but you've made a statement rather than asking a question. Do you have a question? You'll want to use somewhat correct terminology. A "land patent" typically refers to the initial grant of a piece of land by the government to an individual or... Read more »

First, call your lawyer and ask why he hasn't followed through. There may be some obstacle that's needs to be removed first, and he's working on it for you. Second, if your lawyer doesn't have a good reason for not following through, find another attorney. You can record... Read more »
Me and my girlfriend split up about a year ago. She still lives in my house that I own. I've been seeing somebody for 6 months and we both want to live together. Problem is my ex-girlfriend still lives there and she refuses to leave. Do I have to give her notice of someone moving in? Because... Read more »

From a legal perspective, if it's your house you don't need to give your ex notice that someone else is moving in. On the other hand, I'm guessing your new girlfriend and you will lead a much more peaceful life if you evict the ex-girlfriend before moving the new girlfriend into the... Read more »

Your Judgment for Dissolution should state who the residential parent is. If it is you, then you are free to move with the children.
Lease and rent are current and up to date.

This seemingly is a landlord-tenant issue. However, as a practical matter for business, if you have already signed a lease and been in it for 3 years, this appears to be out of their right to request.
However, I can see it making sense in two scenarios: if you have fallen behind and there... Read more »
Trying to fill out an Executors Deed. I have one executor but about 6 heirs/grantees. Do I just list each heir and their percentage and say individually? For example: John Doe (20%) individually, John Doe Jr. (20%) individually, etc. Should percentages not be included?

On the other hand, when a representative is merely releasing the estate's interest in the property and confirming title in the heirs... Read more »
I am now at work in pain because I fear I will get more points against me. They have a system where if you get 7 points, you’re fired. I’m not sure if this is legal or if there is anything I can do in this situation. I have doctor’s notes for my surgery and my missed day on Monday 1/16/23.

Sorry to hear about your surgery. If you had a doctor's note for taking Monday off, and your employer would not accept it, you may have a case for denial of reasonable accommodations. Depending on if you qualify for job-protected leave, you may also have a case for violation of the FMLA.... Read more »

Yes. If a text component of a registered mark is in the singular form, it is infringed by use of the plural. The issue is whether the mark is "confusingly similar" to another mark, and mere pluralization of a text component in a mark is considered too similar for registration.... Read more »

The judge order them to payout but they are still refusing. Told the family they dont deserve that amount of money.

I assume that when you say your family "received" a judgment that you mean that a judgment was entered in your or your family's favor and against some specific defendant or defendants. Obtaining a judgment does not mean that the defendants will voluntarily pay or satisfy the... Read more »
