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

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?

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 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.
Not sexual in nature. Just inappropriate conversations about my daughters mental health during and outside of school. They are woman teachers.

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.

He has no legal basis to have the kids if he has not established paternity and a court has not granted him parental rights. What if they need medical treatment while he travels with them? He does not have custody, so that would be a problem. Check with CPS before allowing him to do that.

Perjury occurs when a person lies under oath during a court proceeding. Not just when someone lies. Most of the accountability for this sort of stuff is in potential removal from the position by the rest of the council, difficulty getting re-elected, and trouble working with others in the community...
