I don't see a case there as the DA is given great lattitude in what to do. However if you want there is a group called the Womens Law Project that may be able to better direct you. Certainly you can ask for a PFA.

From the facts you stated--no. You don't have a right for maintaining a property unless there is an agreement giving you ownership interest of some type. Even if there was, if the land was sold, it's on you to do something. However I may be missing facts and it may be worth your while to... View More
After 12 week FMLA/STD for documented behavioral health issues, doctor recommends working P/T permanently. If my F/T position can’t be adapted for P/T hours, would my employer have to “lay me off?” If so, could I file for unemployment?

You have an argument to make that you couldn't work for necessitous and compelling reasons. I would suggest contacting OVR for job help.

The issue is you rear ended him. Unless you have a good reason why you didn't see him slow or stop, you don't have a right to assume that he is moving if his brake lights are on. You have to maintain an assured clear distance, which means as he was slowing you have to slow. I haven't... View More

Depends on your points, but generally if a cop gives you a break, the judge will tend to look on you as someone who doesn't take a stroke of luck when they get it. It's your right to go to court but the cop won't be happy either. Unless you have a full defense to what you did it is... View More
The case stems from an event in 1991 when I was married

If your divorce is final, no. Generally a spouse isn't entitled to money for your injuries, but may have a separate claim for loss of consortium. But that would have been made at the time or before the divorce. If it's final, it is yours. Discuss with the attorney getting you the settlement.

Talk to the attorney who drew up the agreement. Any statute of limitations runs from when payments are made according to the agreement.

You have to look at the complaint. Chances are it says more. You need to respond to the complaint.
The company pays $138 a day plus over time hrs. The clocking system were always broken as the manager said. We used to put the time in and out on the paper. I never get my exact working hours.

You should have received a paycheck which would say the hours, unless you were a contractor. If you get a W-2 at the end of the year you are an employee and your pay stubs should have all the information. If you get a 1099, you are an independent contractor. As such you need to keep track of your... View More

answered on one of your other posts. The other thing he or she can claim for is costs.
There was only one appeal and two court cases that he took part in.

You have to look at the fee petition he filed. He should have sent you a copy. It's a question of what he did in terms of hours, the hourly fee (you have to match this with your fee agreement).

You should be able to, I would check with legal aid in your county to see if they can give you some advice specific to your facts. However if served with papers you need to file an answer to avoid a default judgment.
I received only a little more in back pay than my lawyer got in fees

I would also ask social security. Ms Lunn is correct that sometimes an amount is held that is larger. But he shouldn't get more than he asked for.
However, in the Confidential Info Section, both tickets state "A/M Non-moving citation..." What should I do?

See if the cop will agree to the driving on roadways laned for traffic.
My father got involved with a woman facing legal troubles and believes he is funding a big top secret lawsuit against a gov. agency. However, no legitimate lawyer is ever produced when asked and some tragic event always occurs to prolong the case. It's been 5 yrs. He gave away all of his... View More

I agree with Mr. Winterstein. The local office of aging may have a contact at the AG's office. At the DA's office ask for the victim assitance coordinator. I would consult an elder law specialist (they are board certified) to see if there is some type of limited conservatorship you can... View More

Depending on the nature of the emergency, I have seen drivers not have to pay. Start with her insurance. If you have insurance of your own, use that and let them go after her for what was paid plus your deductible.
Owing 900$ and also i am out the 4,000$ I paid in cash. Car under a year old. Can i go after her insurance company for the 4,900$??
answered on May 25, 2021
It looks like you may have paid over book value. When you say it's a year old was it a 2020 or you mean you bought it used a year ago? They only have to give you the book value, not the replacement value. If they give you below market value you may have a claim if you can document that, but... View More
I left Cali Friday 01/22/21. On The 23rd east of Truckee Nevada I had blown a tire. Wile stuck on side of the road for 6 - 8 hours looking for ways to get it fixed that day the 23rd.

I read article 39 14-313 under the distribution of tobacco products and you would think it would be no however with the new technology of vending machines being able to use age verification, Would there be a way to get around this legislation and put these vending machines anywhere?
answered on Mar 6, 2021
Unless the state permits that machine you would not be able to get the proper license to sell the product. It is unlikely, for many reasons, for that permission to be granted but you can always contact something like the American Enterprise Foundation to see if their legal arm is willing to... View More
Four months ago I received a purchase order from my buyer for a product I provide. The product I would sell will not be due until six weeks from now.

If there was no payment it was an undertaking that you would perform it. Factors not in your contemplation prohibited that. That being said, speak with a business consultant about selling what sounds like a going business.
All the best!
