You have the right to walk away from him and get him out of your life. It is probably not worth the time or effort of trying to get the $100 back.
The 25,000 is the amount the person carried so they automatically said the taxes take half which left me with 12,500 is this tax deal true

With the limited facts you have given, it is hard to determine what is going on - but, I am suspicious.
First of all, it is common to have taxes "withheld" in a variety of transactions. These can include withdrawals from retirement accounts, winnings from slot machines, etc. And... View More
The Dr. my lawyer sent me to did not do a complete examination on my injury and only turned in a small part of my injury. My lawyer is acting like he is not worried about it. And has also advised me to go to work. What should I do?
answered on Jun 17, 2018
Talk to your lawyer again about this issue, and ask him to explain why he is not concerned. If not satisfied, take copies of everything you have, and visit with another comp attorney.

It is not, however you should contact the other party to advise they have no consent to access your private accounts. You should also seek to protect those accounts. Should those accounts be accessed, it can constitute an illegal “hacking,” and you should file a police report immediately.
I have an ongoing workman's comp case which requires physical therapy under care of a Orthopedic Dr. My Employer said since I missed work (have medical forms stating I could not work) that I will not receive my bonus.

Depends on the wording of the bonus offer. Seems like you want to contact a member of the Ok Assn for Justice--they give free consults.
They won't look into the mid or lower back.
The Dr did not even mention my complaint

You need to speak with a personal injury attorney ASAP. Your attorney can help determine whether you're receiving fair compensation for your injuries. As a general rule, represented persons receive more compensation that unrepresented persons.
What it my right what if they call the police and lied about that
answered on Nov 17, 2017
Just tell the police it's not true. They can't arrest you without a warrant, and no prosecutor is likely to file this. So, don't worry.

She is 19 and received virtually no training on how to handle situations like that other than to squirt them with a water bottle. There were 3 employees watching 70 dogs.

She may be entitled to Workers Compensation and/or claims against the dogs' owners. She should seek out an attorney who handles comp & personal injury claims.

Depends on the nature of your injury. It's only been less than a year, and if they are arguing you had a preexisting condition--as they do in nearly every case short of amputation--yes, that can take that long.I'm assuming you have an attorney. If not you need to get one.

So, in January I fell while on the job which led to a major knee injury (completely severed my patellar tendon). The injury required surgery to reattach the tendon to my kneecap.

You may file suit against the arresting agency. I'm not sure about publication.

It happened 20 years or so ago

The cut required a plastic surgeon putting him under anethesia for stitches but there is no nerve damage
answered on Apr 10, 2017
You may have a claim, but more facts would be required to know for sure. You should contact a local personal injury attorney for a free consultation.

You always have the right of self defense - you just can't instigate it or once you have "defended" yourself - you can't keep up the fight. There is a line. You need to "make a record" and call a police officer and document what has happened. Document the day, time,... View More
Say I have a group that goes out and purchases riot gear, and then travels around the country and stops riots or steps in before police can to protect others. Would that be legal? I want to see if there is a way to keep people safe from groups like antifa

I'm sure that you will find enough injustice in Oklahoma to work on that you won't need to go outside the state. Looks to me like antifa... View More
