You will be given notification of separation, and depending on how many years of service you have and the characterization of the discharge they are seeking (General, OTH...), you will have an opportunity to contest it at an Admin Board or waive the board and be processed out. With the Guard, I... View More

Each branch of service has some form of board of corrections for military records. For example if you're in the Army (as it appears you are), you might want to consider getting relief through the Army Board of Corrections for Military Records. A simple internet search will take you to the... View More

In regards to the BAH, you are still entitled to receive it regardless of her immigration status. Just ensure you have proof of a lawful marriage.

You may need to go to where she is and file in that jurisdiction. Courts mostly look to where the child is at for the purposes of the proper venue. That will be the surest way to get things moving and done. The downside to this is the expense. In some jurisdictions, you can ask for... View More

If I understand what you are asking, this is an old charge that is still pending - but your life has cleaned up and have a lot to lose. If there are pending charges, I would recommend you speak with an attorney in person immediately so that he or she arrange for a self-surrender, an OR/PR bond (no... View More

You can wait until the hearing and request it be withdrawn, or some court clerk's offices can assist you in getting a court minute to the judge. I would call the court clerk to see if you can withdraw it - you may have to wait until the court has a hearing.

I am unsure of your question, but generally yes. The US can dictate who can become a citizen or not.

The statute states that the prohibited "knuckles" are "metal" - thus you should be fine. Be advised that some municipalities may have more stringent laws that prohibit even plastic brass knuckles. With that being said, is it worth having to mess with even the risk of dealing... View More

Mistakes happen - it's the cover up that becomes the crime. Depending on the nature of the error, it's always better to correct immediately. If there is a reporting requirement (shareholders, SEC, etc.), then don't hesitate. There may ( or may not) be a civil/administrative fine... View More

This answer may vary depending on the state that you are in, but generally the state statutes have no effect on trust land. You need to look to the tribal code for your remedy. You may need to hire an attorney familiar with that tribal court.

Most states have a "bogus check" or "hot check" charge - it's no different than a type of fraud. If you have any checks that bounce, it's better to be on the front end of it and pay it off immediately. The court costs, conviction and restitution is not worth "hanging paper."

Yes it can. It will not take all of your Social Security, but they will take some. If it's a state order, then it may not.
