A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Although you were treated badly in the store, from a legal standpoint, it does not sound like a case that a law firm would consider handling on a contingency basis. And if there were no tangible damages, it... Read more »

The UAE cannot engage in kidnapping, so no, it can’t come and get you unless there is a warrant out for your arrest. If so, there must be a formal extradition process, so again, no, the UAE probably cannot do anything unless it violates your human rights.
Again, if you are uncomfortable... Read more »

will their charges get dropped and how long till they do?
answered on Jan 4, 2022

Depending on how much time has passed, the system just may not have gotten to you. I would check with the Court and your... Read more »
