While there are no explicit rules prohibiting the use of other credit cards, it may potentially cast you in an... View More

Company acknowledged cancelation and then the package was shipped out 12 hours later. I'd imagine it was the following day. On the 13th it was delivered .

if the cancellation was processed and the refund issued before the package was shipped, you may have grounds to keep the package without any further obligations.
However, if the cancellation and refund were processed after the package was already shipped or if the company's policy... View More

When you look closely at what they did charge you sure that the downpayment was not included?

An orthodontist (or any professional) can refuse to see you for any reason, other than one based on discrimination against a member of a legally protected class. For example, he can't refuse to see you because you are black or white, Buddhist or Baptist, married or single, and so on, because... View More

Stop losing sleep over this incident. You were assaulted by the Buyer. I believe the District Attorney and police have more important matters to pursue. As far as selling the product, this appears to be a civil event not a criminal event. Again, stop losing sleep.

Bank accounts do not generally show in credit reports, only credit cards.

garnish, no. Levy yes. The difference is they can only get what you were due at the time of the Levy, not what you may be due in the future.
I believe they could put a levy on my bank account. My wages from uber go into this account. Can I open a new bank account, and use that for my wages? Do creditors have to make seperate court filings for individual banks? Or does one bank levy order apply for all banks ?
