Confused what it all means. Because no there is no court date? Wondering why?
For whatever reason the Prosecutor's office decided not to move forward with the case at this time. It could be for a bunch of different reasons such as not having the officer available, a paperwork error, a Grand Jury Indictment is expected, etc. Unfortunately, it is difficult to know and find out...

the judge gave me sole custody, so father has no parenting time, arizona's laws are unclear on sole custody with moving versus primary parenting.

He is currently hospitalized, but will be returning to long term care facility, and probably shortly, Hospice. His bank is requiring me to obtain a Durable PoA, but, obviously, I won't be able to get that prior to his passing. They said there are other instruments? My brother and I are named... Read more »

I’m filing chapter 7 with no assets other than my truck. Will they let me reaffirm my Car Loan with negative equity, and keep my truck? Or will I have to give up my truck in order to keep my Car loan?

I bought a HUD home in Tucson, AZ for my Aunt to use. She could not afford to live on her own.

If you consulted with an attorney regarding such a letter or legal action, they would likely want to see each individual review. If they're negative, it's possible that in itself is not necessarily actionable. An attorney who deals with defamation would examine if they were false and harmful, among... Read more »
I injured my back at work nearly a year ago. At the time, I thought it was minor, so I didn't report it or seek medical attention. However, months later, it is still causing pain and limiting my activities at and outside of work. I realize in hindsight that it was more severe than I had originally... Read more »
You have one year from the date of the injury to file a claim at the Industrial Commission of Arizona (ICA). You can still do that if you are actually less than 365 days out.
