We have a pageant that has been in our community for over 30 years! Its never been filed as an official entity or organization. It has always been ran by different volunteers within the community. I know for several years our local Chamber sponsored the pageant. Then there was a issue with... Read more »
You definitely need to consult with an attorney.
Anybody can own a pageant and call it anyway they want.
The question is whether it is exclusive, and if what you do, your work, is owned by somebody else.
Check if they ever signed or got a contract from somebody.

My GF has had applied for CalFresh assistance and just has received a phone call from the worker asking all sorts of questions.

She only needs to provide proof of lawful permanent resident status by way of her alien number. Perhaps, she can also show a copy of her ‘valid card.’ She has no other status, so other questions seem irrelevant, perhaps, unless this concerns more, which seems questionable.

I know legitimate places exist for this but I am seeing sites saying their lawyers will help me with this and they are only entitled to payment if we win the appeal but I'm skeptical. I do not exactly know what I'm talking about but that just doesn't sound like something a lawyer would do

You raise good points, but in the end, the only person who can ultimately make such an important decision is yourself. You will have to contact lawyers, and after speaking with them, decide for yourself who you prefer in terms of skill, experience, and your trust and confidence in them. Good luck... Read more »

If you make your unemployment insurance claim, chances are that you will be deemed to qualify.
Due of the corona virus, people are being let off from work, including illegal immigrants. Because of this, can they apply for unemployment? If not, what other solution is there for them to receive money or aid from the government? What can be done when bills and rest must still be paid and food... Read more »
You will have to consult with a state unemployment lawyer or the California State forms. Some are disqualified because they use fictitious identities.

She is on SSI and is Bi Polar. There is a Special Needs Trust set up for her. She won this playing Bingo and the Casino took all the taxes out and gave her $5,000 cash and the rest in a check because that is what she asked them to do. I found out about it and have all of it now and wondering what I... Read more »
Yes if her special needs trust is a first party SNT; otherwise no. If it is not a first party SNT the best choice is probably an ABLE account if she is eligible.

If it's not in writing, it didn't happen. The terms of the contract changed if the appraisal contingency was not met and the buyers want to complete the transaction anyway. You should consult a lawyer to formalize the arrangement.

8 years ago, I was fined Rs. 500 by a railway judge for travelling in the ladies coach of EMU Delhi. They noted my name and addresses from my ID. Will it cause any problem in getting a government job in India now?
This is something that must be posed to an attorney who practices law in India, or at least to someone who is familiar with the retention and use of records for government employment. Good luck

It would be used in a campaign to bring legislative awareness to a cause no related to the nonprofit with the name.
It could depend on the context. If the organization alleged that such use adversely impacted its reputation or other interests, it could object to the use or bring legal action.

You could consult with an attorney to see what they say, but it does not appear that there were damages of any kind that resulted from the mix-up. Unless it triggered something of a medical nature or some other form of significant damage, the remedy under most circumstances would be to replace the... Read more »

My local Sonic has no restroom for the public, and even denies access to their employee restrooms to their paying customers

Unless you have a paid in full receipt or a certified copy of the dismissed Citation, you will have to pay AZ, and copy TN DOS with your payment. That is a cheap amount of money to reinstate a TNDL.
I received a motion that my very bad attorney said nothing about and that was on the 5th and I went into the hospital for cancer surgury right after.
