In Ohio, warrants are issued against a person, not property. While the car is registered to your father, the warrant is linked to your name, date of birth, and social security number. The BMV will put a warrant block on your license (if you had one), preventing you from renewing your license until... View More
Most retailers in our area are refusing cash payment and instead are requiring you to pay via card or some sort of cash app.

Yes, it is legal for a private business to accept only some sorts of payments and to refuse cash payments. A governmental institution or chartered bank cannot refuse cash.

If the original court proceeding found the transfer to be fraudulent, you can use that to seek a voiding of the transfer. You may need to file a complaint for declaratory judgment and quiet title.
Someone cut me off in vehicle in an Arby’s parking lot, stopped in front of me and wouldn’t let me through, so I had to lay on my horn to get them to move. After they moved and began flicking me off, I had to follow them around the corner because it was the only way out that I knew of. They... View More

Yes, they could possibly find your address or track you down. This sort of thing is how road rage escalates to tragic outcomes - even blowing your horn, or especially gesturing at them, could be dangerous. Everyone is tense. Do not engage with other drivers in traffic. Avoid eye contact. They... View More

The University I am at enforced a new parking rule saying cars are not allowed to pull through a spot or back into it, all the license plates need to be facing the isle for the security cars to scan them.

A parking lot is private property, and the owner can impose any restrictions on parking, and tow vehicles that do not comply.

No, you’re not going to have a good case against the BMV. It’s a government agency which means it has qualified immunity. That basically boils down to you cannot sue then over mistakes only affirmative conduct. So unless they were in on the scam, you’re going to have to go after the thieves... View More

Not knowing all the details, but as long as it's his words, his evidence, it doesn't matter if he wrote it or dictated it to someone. Often police officers will take the statement, write as they are speaking with the witness and then have the witness sign the statement.
An older lady friend of mine told me that at this point the cops can be callled but they wont do anything since I am almost 18. Is this true or will I still get in trouble since I am not fully 18 yet?
answered on Oct 4, 2019
You are not a legal adult until age 18. Nobody can predict what the police or children's services might or might not do if you leave before then. Even if they take no action, will you be finishing your education so you can be a responsible, productive adult? If you leave, will you still... View More
If they're taking n front of the common pleas judge and he sets bond and the clerk and bondsman say that paying the bond will get her released is this possible? Doesn't felony trump the rest

The juvenile court is a division of the court of common pleas. Generally, there are judges dedicated to juvenile and the circumstances in which an adult court judge might set a bond in a juvenile matter are limited but they have the authority to do so.

The teacher has the administrative right to challenge the performance rating by the terms of the teacher's contract. There are very specific objections or challenges to the performance rating that have to be brought within strict time limits.
Students and parents do not have such a right.

You should talk to the teacher and the school. That doesn’t sounds legally actionable, at least not yet.

That's a definition section defining "socially disadvantaged persons" as used elsewhere in the CFR. It's just a definition. The section itself doesn't actually do anything, and you have not asked a question.
