This means that, in general, your parents don’t have the right to go through your phone without your consent.

To remove a restraining order, you will need to file a request with the court that issued it.

I am not exactly sure, but a people search site missouribirthindex.com lists the date of births for any Missouri resident born between 1910 and 2022. I found my date of birth on this site and emailed the owner about opting out, but she blatantly refused my request.

A Missouri attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. Unfortunately, many terms-of-service agreements or privacy agreements we regularly enter into sometimes contain clauses for the sharing of personal information. If you don't feel this is the case, you could... View More

Missouri's rent-withholding statute is unlikely to apply. It's limited to $300 or half a month's rent if I recall correctly. An attorney would need to read the lease to assess the situation.

I would gently recommend speaking to a trusted adult, counselor, attorney, or other mentor for guidance. Focusing on developing healthy relationships and personal growth is most constructive.

If the loan is secured, meaning... View More

A Missouri attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. One option could be to check with motor vehicles how long they take to process a replacement title, and if the process could be expedited. Good luck

A Missouri attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. It could depend on the nature of the reaction. Such settings are fact-specific. Good luck
they also say no about getting emancipated, what should i do?
answered on May 18, 2023
Ordinarily, in order to get emancipated, you must be financially independent. That works well for actors, musicians, inventors, etc. $14 an hour probably won't cut it

I'm not sure if you are stating that you filed a motion and served the plaintiff with a copy or if you simply wrote a letter to the judge. If the latter, then no. If the former, then you'll have to argue your duly noticed motion and win. Hire an attorney if you can afford one.

So as it stands, it seems I have to go to court to get my name changed back. I have a two-part question: 1. How much of a hassle is... View More

At the age of 17, you are no longer considered a "runaway" for police purposes. You could also seek emancipation if you're 17 and living on your own, supporting yourself.

If they won't take your request seriously, I think that a stern letter from an attorney will get you some results. If not, you could hire an attorney and sue for misrepresentation or tortious interference with contract.
Yesterday, I bought a Volvo 850 turbo from a dealer in independence Missouri. He told me that the car was in perfect running condition and that everything was great. He just had the oil changed, a new battery, and more. I got the car it ran great I signed the title and left. I drove less than 20... View More

I’m sorry to hear that. You can sue but it will be your burden to come up with admissible evidence showing that the seller knew about then problem and lied to you. At this point you’ve only articulated highly suspicious timing between the sale and breakdown. Consult with a consumer lawyer... View More
