Yes. It is typical for an at-fault insurance company to request a claimant's social security number. The reason being is the insurer has an obligation, under federal law, to determine whether the injured claimant was enrolled in Medicare. If so, and if Medicare paid any of the medical bills...

You still need to file a legitimation, but the ex-Husband has to be a party, as it's legally his child. This is a complicated case, so hire an attorney to help.

Assuming the other driver was at fault, you can still pursue lost wages against the at fault driver and recover any lost wages from the personal assets of the at fault driver. This is true regardless of the $25,000.00 in liability limits being exhausted to cover medical expenses, general damages,... Read more »

I have a friend living in Alabama. She has a medically fragile child who can’t tolerate heat. Currently the A/C isn’t Working 100%. Maybe 50%. Her house is 85• which is way to hot for her son. What rights does she have??

answered on Jun 27, 2022
A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I'm sorry for the difficult situation in terms of excessive heat for the child. This is something a landlord-tenant attorney would probably have the best insight into, in terms of tenant rights. There's no... Read more »
If you receive this charge, are you being charged with trafficking in ALL these substances? Why wouldn’t you receive a separate trafficking charge for each offense?

answered on Jun 27, 2022
No. That is just the name for that section which covers multiple substances. The arrest warrant will specify the exact drug/substance that the defendant is accused of trafficking. Unless there are multiple charges for trafficking, the defendant is only being charged with one of the substances.
Controlled substance possession 2015. Sentenced to 3 years conditional discharge felony probation in 2017. Completed in 2020.

answered on Jun 27, 2022
The general rule is that your DNA is only captured and placed in CODIS if you are convicted of a felony offense. Because you pled under the conditional discharge statute, no conviction occurred. Therefore, your DNA should not have been placed in the system (unless (1) a petition was filed, (2)... Read more »

No, you cannot file Georgia divorce papers in Ohio. Also, it is possible to file for divorce here even if your spouse does not live here. Contact an attorney for assistance.

If the parents are not separated (which presumably they are if there is a joint custody order) and are not living together, a grandparent may file an original action for visitation rights.
I am 22 now, but before I was 12 I was neglected and abused in the home. My mom was charged with child endangerment at one point and I have an incident report along with other things to prove it happened. Is my statue of limitations up? And how likely am I to win something like that. I'd only... Read more »

answered on Jun 23, 2022
Most likely no. Georgia has a two year statute of limitations to bring civil claims arising from injuries to the person, which would include emotional distress. See O.C.G.A. section 9-3-33. Thus, any type of civil claim is likely time barred. Further, even if the statute of limitations would have... Read more »

Georgia law does not allow expungement of DUI convictions or felony drug convictions. However, you may be able to expunge the drug conviction if it was for a misdemeanor offense. You would file a petition with the convicting court to request expungement.

This person completed his sentence 26 years ago

The short answer is no. However, if the person obtains a pardon from the governor or was sentenced as a first offender and was discharged without court adjudication of guilt, then the person can own a firearm. See O.C.G.A. section 16-11-131.
(continued) name. My husband at the time of birth was not present and lived in another state. Did the hospital legally have to provide paperwork to me (mother) to prove that my husband was not the father and so that the child can take the biological father’s last name?

answered on Jun 22, 2022
If you were married, the child was not born out-of-wedlock, so the child is considered legitimate and the child of your husband. The hospital does not have to prove otherwise.

They are still operating and opening new businesses how does that work. Does it mean they are out of bankruptcy.

answered on Jun 21, 2022
Most businesses that file a bankruptcy case use Chapter 11 of the Code, in what is called a reorganization. Several of the US airlines have done so, some more than once.
In a corporate Ch. 11, it is the norm to continue to operate the business.

Sometimes cases do get lost in the shuffle, but it's never something to rely upon.
The citation likely gave you a court date. If you missed that, there's probably a warrant out for your arrest and a suspension on your driver's license.

Yes, vehicle equipment violations are permissible reasons to initiate a traffic pullover.
What happens after that point is not necessarily fair game, however.
