In addition to the medicals, you... View More

I am not sure if I should sign the waiver because I haven't had time or money to get legal advice. I already filed an answer denying the complaint saying I went to court for this incident.

Waiving service saves costs and gives the person answering 60 to respond... View More

Is the iPhone XR advertised to be able to securely fit in these particular... View More
