Unlikely that this is a criminal matter. I would suggest contacting code enforcement department in the county where the facility is. They may need a complaint in order to investigate. I hope this helps.

That office might be a Medicare fraudster (engaging in crimes), or this could be legitimate under the insurance policy and Medicare rules. You should first ask the office (in a friendly way) for its explanation for their billings, and if the explanation doesn't make sense, tell them so and... Read more »

What can I do to change that date?
answered on Jan 10, 2023
If the plaintiff is represented by a law firm/attorney, call them and see if they will agree to a change. If there's no lawyer on the other side, call the judge's assistant and ask whether you can change the date. Your business obligation had better be significant; as between a court date... Read more »

One of you would have to sue the other one for "partition" of the home. It would be sold and, if there is any equity (sale price less sale expenses and mortgage) it would be divided between you pro-rata (in proportion to what each of you put into it). Or in lieu of a lawsuit you could... Read more »

decision was not what I had asked for. I filed a motion for a new hearing was denied. I found this out 20 days later because I went online received nothing by mail. What can I do to get a new hearing?
answered on Dec 22, 2022
You asked for a rehearing and the Court denied it. That's the end of you getting a new hearing. It may be possible to appeal the ruling, but you'd need an attorney who practices appellate law to review the case and the timelines for filing a notice of appeal are very tight.
and the plaintiff
answered on Dec 22, 2022
Yes, and the Court will do that on its own unless one of the parties is represented by an attorney.
Was durning an eviction, but landlord had agreed to given us more time to move the day before , in front of another officer.
answered on Dec 20, 2022
"It was during an eviction" - this means that the sheriff was there to execute the writ of possession. What happened the day before is anyone's guess, but once the writ of possession is posted, the sheriff is going to come out on their schedule. The answer to your question is yes -... Read more »

You may sue the seller in small claims court, where it is not necessary to have an attorney. You may sue for recovery of the money lost and your court costs.
One court officer made a mistake and stated an incorrect factual finding, in all following hearings, officers of the court continue quoting this mistake as fact and using it as evidence against me.

Although very difficult, it is possible to correct this situation, but not without paying an experienced lawyer to do it.
I'm tired of hearing people say, after I explained what happened to me, OMG you need an attorney. Can an individual sue the county?
answered on Dec 6, 2022
In theory, yes but government bodies may be immune from suit under a doctrine called sovreign immunity. Nobody online can give you the level or quality of advice you'd need to be able to act on your own; only an attorney whom you retain to resolve the issue can do that.

If you don't want your case to get confused by the affirmative defenses, and you don't want to have to deal with them if you go to trial, you can move to strike them. I'm not sure what you mean by "Do I have to ... move to judgment against me ...". For further... Read more »
I am thinking about filling bankruptcy, but I have previously filed (July of 2015). So if I do decide that I need to I have seven months to wait.
answered on Dec 3, 2022
Yes, a creditor of yours can record a judgment that becomes a lien. What it cannot do is foreclose on the lien. Should you file and your bankruptcy is discharged, this judgment will be discharged and the lien evaporates as a matter of law.
