Generally speaking, in many states, civil complaints do not include specific dollar amounts but, instead, just a general allegation of (and demand for) damages. This falls under the concept of "notice pleading". Check with a local lawyer to verify.

In either case you will need to prove that you you have a severe impairment that is expected to last, or... View More

Is there a particular right you are concerned about? For the most part, confidential informants have the same rights as anyone else.
answered on Jan 27, 2014
