    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    Im not making things up. You can go look at OSHA’s website. Www.Osha.gov/laws-regs/regulations/standardnumber/1910/1910.22 look at standards 1910.22(a)(3) 1910.22(c) 1910.22(d)(1) 1910.22 (d)(2) Regulations are plain and simple. Work surfaces, including parking lots must be free and clear of...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    No because drive trucks. Which means how hard is it to salt a parking lot the night before? Or even a couple days before? the argument that they didn’t have enough time to remedy the situation won’t stick in a court of law. Remedy means at minimum you were aware of the a hazardous situation...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    I do not, but the company I work for is in the car wash industry, and at our 8 stores the salting and plowing is all done BEFORE opening which is promptly before 7am. At HQ employees start arriving at 6-7am. Logic dictates that if people are already there at that time, that it's NOT unreasonable...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    I don't know who consolidated my item. But these are two separate events. And yes, I do have pictures showing the rims are completely flawless before. In case you didn't know, PVD is extremely durable. The photo I shot was before going into the tire center. After the tire center the same rim's...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    Alright. Well I’ll just file with osha and the city anyway. At least they’ll be fined good and plenty. I’m legit confused. So if you fall at work and value your job you shouldn’t claim workers comp too?

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    to clarify, the snow and ice happened over night. When the incident happened it was already 8:40am. Plenty of other businesses had already plowed and salted except for us... my dash cam footage shows otherwise. I was going slow into the drive. Main roads like I said were already cleared. If the...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    I bought a set of 4 tires at costco and had my tires changed out. After they were done, I noticed that the damaged one of my rims! It's been almost a month now and they still won't take responsibility for the damage saying that they have video but can't find any evidence that they were the ones...

    Damage from hitting curb on company property

    There was a travel advisory because of freezing rain and snow this morning and although the main roads were cleared my company did not bother to plow or to salt their HQ property. As a result, entering from the main road today I slid right into a curb at maybe 5-15mph. Now on top of rim curb...

    Other Criminal Charges & Offenses Civil Demand Letter

    Was caught shoplifting, received a civil demand letter from the store asking that I pay $100 in restitution. From what I've read is that usually stores don't file lawsuits even if you don't pay, because they aren't cost effective. In my case, how likely is it that the store will file a civil...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Got caught shoplifting

    Thank you. I appreciate it. UPDATE: So today I saw a criminal defense lawyer and he said i've got a couple options. I can plead guilty, which likely would not end well for me, or I can do the pretrial diversion program (available in my county). Now I have a couple questions about pretrial...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Got caught shoplifting

    I am 18 years and older. I know they don't have a legal obligation to come with me, but is it a good idea to ask them to come anyway? I haven't told them yet, and I think telling them is the right thing to do. Also I have no way of affording a lawyer without them. I don't have a job,

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Got caught shoplifting

    Okay I've scheduled a lawyer consultation, should my parent be with me at this meeting? Should they also come to court with me? I assume meeting a lawyer for the first time is about impression. So dressing the same like you would for court. Yes?

    I called the county clerks office today to see if there was a summons with my name, and they said they didn't have any record? What does this mean?

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Civil Demand

    Have a simple question about the civil demand's reasoning. Typically department store loss prevention charge caught shoplifters to "recover costs." However if the stolen merchandise was all returned, and they can STILL resell it what's the big issue? Furthermore on the civil demand most...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Got caught shoplifting

    Also should I pay the fine they send if when I receive it? Or is this an admission of guilt? Should I admit to being guilty? I am in the state of Indiana if that helps.
