There are many potential options in this situation including filing your own petition to Reinstate benefits after the surgery and to Review the description of injury to include the conditions set forth in the second IME.

If it prohibited tricks on private property, likely yes.Contact the Pa. Civil Liberties Union. On public property--I don't see it being invalid unless it is used to cover non-pedestrian areas such as open spaces used by jugglers, dancers, others.

The fact that you are off probation is meaningless. You were convicted of a crime that makes it illegal for you to purchase a firearm. If you have questions you should ask a local attorney.

I'm not sure why this is an issue for you. You haven't provided any information which tells me why you care about this.
A lawyer on here said we don't have the right to drive under the "right to travel" constitutional right but if you read it the law says by horse, wagon, or automobile... Is the right to travel in an automobile not driving?

You have the right to "liberty" but the right to drive upon the roadways is limited by licensing laws. The original post, I believe, dealt with someone who felt that a licensing law blocked his right to travel. There is no specific right to travel--for instance you cannot trespass to... View More

First, understand the costs of getting to be a lawyer. Second the years. Third your skillset. You may be a great lawyer or not--it's like deciding you want to play in the NBA. Very few people get to play. If you are mid level at a division III school you may not get selected. There are for... View More
I was told that: 1.) being called a nazi, 2.) having a figure of me as hitler, 3.) ostracizing me, and 4.) harassment, bullying, and psychosocial abuse against another person for their association/friendship with myself was a hate crime. Is it?

Generally hate crimes apply to certain protected groups. Being a Nazi isn't a religion or ethnicity. However the behaviours could be actionable or not depending on whether this is a work environment, a school, or merely social. See if the Pennsylvania Civll Liberties union has any... View More

Possible violation, no. The facts must be known to answer the question here. One typically hires a private criminal defense attorney when charged with crime.
