You will need to comply with the reality. Obtain your expedited foreign passport and then apply for a new visa in that document.

There is no way around it.

Yes, and although this is not directly international law, my suggestion is that you cut him off from you social media and contact local law enforcement.

The answer depends on numerous factors such as: what he was charged with, whether he has been convicted, whether he has an ICE hold (or has been referred immigration court), and, if so, whether he has any form of relief for which to apply. That would depend on criminal record, how long he has been... View More

If you mean that an existing suit is a fraud, I’m sure the Commonwealth Attorney in the county...

It depends on the contract. If you have the right to sue in the US, you might get a default judgment and then execute on the trademark, though that will be complicated.

The title of a contract is not as important as what's in it. What's in the contract will depend on your desires and requirements and the manufacturer's desires and requirements. If North Carolina law will control the document, English seems like a sensible choice; if Italian law,... View More

It sounds very much like you want to break our laws and scoot back to the UK without consequence. If so, you likely can as it is highly unlikely the State of North Carolina will bother to hunt you down for a speeding ticket.but doing so would demonstrate incredibly poor character on your part.
