Suing a city is a complex endeavor. The process differs from suing a company. You don't mention why you want to sue the city. That makes a difference.
Last week I was sentenced, but my public defender failed to tell me all of the details of my sentence. He told me that I would be on probation until I complete 40 hours of community service. After he explained this to me I repeated it back to him for confirmation that I understood it correctly.... View More

People are often discharged from probation early once they have completed the terms and conditions of their probation.

Although I have experience in this area of law, I haven't dealt with this specific issue. I am confident, however, it's not as simple as declaring it the same parcel as the owner. If you came to me looking to hire an attorney, I would like to know why and where. Rob Kane Eagan Minnesota Attorney.

Arson doesn’t require that you entirely burn down a building. Arson is intentionally setting the building on fire. Whether it burns down or not is immaterial.
The cops aren’t generally going to track down and verify every alleged alibi that a suspect tells them about. I’m not sure... View More

Hire an attorney to represent in this matter. Keep up payments or foreclosure will result. Be careful. You may want to refinance.
If my daughter was adopted and name was changed in a closed adoption when she was 8 yr old why 20 yrs later is child support still trying to collect?
answered on Nov 11, 2024

You don't provide any information to determine whether you have a viable case. I suggest you contact a police misconduct lawyer.

A Minnesota attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. It would be helpful to know the additional details you mention, such as whether there was a denial, requests for verification, requests for additional information, etc. A local attorney could advise more meaningfully...

I am confident there is no form petition for 204B.44. As a practical matter, this petition should be supported by group of citizens and not just an individual. Obviously, I don't know if your petition has merit or is merely a frivolous attempt to disrupt the election. So I will not provide... View More

My esop growth has earned me nearly 4M over the last 25 years. At the time I was married, I had about 20k in it. Never put a penny into it. Is this an asset that is 100% mine or does this have to be split in a divorce?

I have not ever been asked to research this specific situation, but I believe this question should be directed to North Carolina authorities.
The cops said they have issue with their system so they will send me the citation. They said it will be the lowest degree (not sure what that means). The claim was for stealing goods worth $78.xx.

When you file your I-485, the government checks for any arrests or citations, and even small theft charges can raise questions about your moral character. However, a petty theft under... View More

I'm currently looking into a small claims suit and it sounds like in the state of MN, you cannot sue someone for more than $4,000 when it comes to credit cards, so I'm looking for clarification to make sure I'm understanding correctly.
answered on Oct 21, 2024
I believe it has do with conciliation court jurisdiction. You have to admit that it doesn't seem quite right if credit card companies couldn't sue for balances over $4,000.
