It sounds like you were under the impression that as long as you completed the IOP program before your probation ended on 08/20/2024, you would be in compliance with the court's order. If the judge did not specify a completion date for the IOP program, your understanding seems reasonable.... View More

You can potentially claim a trademark that is listed as "abandoned - No Statement Of Use Filed," but you would need to refile for the trademark yourself. An abandoned trademark is one that the previous applicant did not complete the required steps to maintain.

You can cite it to show some debts are unenforceable. But SOL starts from last payment., Credit companies do not have to comply until you give a written dispute. If report is still wrong then hire a lawyer to sue. They will usually ignore you.

Not for that exactly... But with plate readers that tell them a TNDL is suspended or car stolen, stops occur. Not having a seatbelt on is a reason for a stop. Only THP can stop to check DL alone. Any type of plate violation is also a reason for stop.

You will need to read the Arrest Warrant and see what probable cause for the stop, detention, search and arrest is cited. If it looks questionable, prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. Hire a competent attorney. If indicted, then the Motion To Suppress should be made at that Court.

Someone saw the video and reported it to the cruise lines. And I was banned for life. Not for getting caught for smoking weed. Banned because of a video of me smoking onboard. Can I sue?
answered on Jul 9, 2024
They'll do that. The short answer is that cruise lines have a no-marijuana policy. It's possible the video was flagged as a violation of policies, and that it could be used as evidence in subsequent proceedings if it appeared on social media or other public forums. Good luck

Businesses can legally open and staff on holidays. Unless you are subject to a union contract, individual employees are free to contract with their employer as they choose unless the specific matter is precluded by law.
