Absolutely see an attorney. The possibilities here run the gamut from "Yes, it shouldn't be too much of an issue" right up to "No, and your status is now revoked".

Here's my advice. Take that child firmly by the hand, get on the plane, and get her backside to Germany. Now, if not sooner. You have family there, yes? Good - leave her with family, get back to the US and finish up your business then return home. As in, Germany. You're...

This would depend on how the agreement is written but, unfortunately, the people who run these things tend to make sure they're pretty iron-clad. A lot of reading the fine print is going to be essential for you.

There is no such law. More to the story, perhaps?

The protocol is fairly simplistic. The lab tests the specimen. When there's a positive, it goes to the MRO. There's no need to fax the medication list - ever. When the MRO sees a positive, they will do one of two things and neither of them involve looking at a list of prescriptions...

It's HIPAA. Not HIPPA. How long have you been doing this job? I'm still curious about what you say occurred.

Not necessarily. It really does depend on the details. How long was it between the case being filed, and the case being dropped? Was Dad involved in the case?

I think you pretty much covered it there :)

Hmmm. OP, I'm a little concerned here. How does your lab usually do things? I'm asking because the industry standards for urine collection do not include actually recording the prescriptions beforehand. If there's a positive result, then the MRO will contact the employee directly to...

Alas, AJ is absolutely correct. They are basically sue-proof. The onus is always, always, always on the user to read their TOS before signing up.

Scoot, you seem to be not understanding something. The company can legally terminate your employment for any reason or no reason at all. The exceptions involve unions and CBAs. An attorney won't do anything because there's no wrong-doing.

Unfair doesn't mean that it's illegal though. Again, UI will make the decision.

Exactly. Hence they can fire you at any time, for any reason, or no reason at all. (Title VII notwithstanding) What do you think they did which was illegal?

Walmart doesn't do any such thing. That aside though, it's not up to Walmart whether or not UI is approved. But yeah - if you're terminated, it's time to get another job. There is no wrong-doing on behalf of Walmart.

That's actually an excellent idea. Forums such as this tend to deal with the legalities, and can be quite black and white. The support forums though? There are many online and most are hugely more supportive that a legal forum. fotb nailed it. With that said, if you get suggestions for...

File for an enforceable court order. At the moment, you are at the mercy of Mom, and she won't face any trouble at this point. I will say though, that the chances of you getting every weekend is virtually nil unless Mom agrees; the court will want to make sure she gets "down time" with...

Have you thought about respite care?

The money is theirs. Return it, or face possible legal action.

I'm so sorry. You can read here, http://standbyguardianship.org/pdf/AIA-SBGstate.pdf - it's an older document but I can find nothing new to contradict what's there. There's actually a form here: http://supremecourt.ne.gov/sites/supremecourt.ne.gov/files/forms/DC-6-10-1.pdf I do think you...

You really need a solicitor in the UK
