I doubt any lawyer will advise that you "just move on", particularly if you feel you legitimately have a valid claim. You claim seems to be mor eof an occupational disease or repetitive injury than one caused by "pulling, pushing, twisting" so I would not worry about the... View More

You are liable for negligence. Whether a jury will rule that you were negligent in continuing payments for car insurance and gas and not taking away the keys or disabling the car cannot be accurately predicted.

Unfortunately the statute of limitations for negligence claims is 2 years. Claims against a Texas governmental entity also have special notice provisions. If you are past the two year time-frame, then it is likely that your claims would be barred.

Your question remains open for two weeks, so at this point, it could be best for you to contact a lawyer to avoid further delays. As a general rule, a claimant who commences a claim on their own can ordinarily retain a lawyer afterwards. I'm sorry for the injuries you sustained. From your... View More

I'm sorry this happened to you. Unfortunately, based on the brief facts, there doesn't really seem to be anything there in terms of a legal cause of action. Good luck

A Texas attorney could tell you more about the legislative process behind the law, but your question remains open for two weeks. You could write to your elected officials. Good luck

I have a scarecrow that jumps up and scares people when they walk up to the door. We only use it for this month of October because of Halloween but can someone sue me because they get to scared or god forbid have a heart attack? Is there a sign I can place with a warning that would avoid a lawsuit?
answered on Oct 27, 2019
No one can stop someone from suing you, however absurd the cause of action. But if it's the type of device that's sold off the shelf in stores, I don't think most judges would take such a case seriously. You could ask a local attorney if they see things differently. A warning would... View More

You're asking this in the Personal Injury category, but it's an issue that more commonly arises in criminal law. From the standpoint of personal injury cases, which are ordinarily civil matters, one doesn't have the same constitutional issues that arise in a criminal case. A claimant... View More
Just want to see if any individual or entity has sued them for anything and what the nature of the lawsuit is. Is there a database online that I can use?

If you're looking in Texas, I suggest checking the county property records and county court records to see if there has been anything. Most of it is public information.

If you could repost or add categories, add Social Security and Public Benefits. You are correct in selecting Personal Injury, but you would probably get more meaningful input from an attorney who handles Social Security disability matters. Good luck

Contact the Texas Civil Liberties Union; ask for the Prison Litigation unit; ask them for the names of "cooperating attorneys " in the county where it happened.

If his rights were violated according to the laws set out then certainly he can sue them.

Who beat him? Was it another inmate or the officials? Certainly if any civil rights violations were had then the responsible parties should be held accountable.
