    Fraud, Embezzlement, Bad Checks What constitues Criminal fraud

    It sounds like the satute of limitations is very close to expiring, so your optons may be limited. Try the state attorney generals office. If the DA won't take the complaint, then I'm not sure what else to do. When you go to court, you may ask about pressing crimnial charges durirng the case...

    Assault & Battery Get a case dropped

    What state are you in? In many states they have a law that if the police show up at a domestic dispute and there is evidence of physical abuse then someone WILL leave in handcuffs. If you had brusies on your face from him slaping you, or if your foot was injured with the door, that would...

    Fraud, Embezzlement, Bad Checks What constitues Criminal fraud

    Wihtout knowing any more specifics it's kind of hard to answer, but if this is a large amount I would think your state laws would definatly make it criminal. If you dealt with the local city police, then you might take it up a notch and contact the county sheriff's department, or even you...

    Old Boyfriend Comes Back

    First step, she needs to contact the police in regards to the threatening messages. Hopefully she still has them recorded. As far as custody a lot would depend on the specifics of his past, but I doubt a judge would actually award him custody given what you've stated so far. This is...

    Judge says hire attorney

    You need to talk to the public defender. They will usually work out some sort of payment plan, and will even waive the fee if you really cannot afford one. On one hand it sounds like a fairly lazy judge, but on the other hand, he may be having you read between the lines, and that is if you...

    Misdemeanor for being in a park after hours.

    You should have some contact info on your citation for the courthouse. If not look it up, call them, and ask how to get in touch wtih the public defenders office. One key thing to ask the public defender is what the maximum penalty is. It's probably nothing more than a $50 fine, in which...

    fired

    Right, and my point then is that even if he did have a case, and even then if he won the case, and went back to work, they would just get rid of him anyway for some other reason, or no reason at all.

    Premises Liability Injury from glass

    Yes. That way you have an amount to tell him. Also, I just noticed something in your first post that I missed that you need to add to what to say in court. I just noticed this was a sliding glass door, not just a window. You need to bring up the fact that you ALSO reasonably believe that...

    Sold car, new owners have not gotten new plates

    Call the DMV and see if they can issue a temporary plate to your in-laws. There may be a fee for this, but it might well be worth it for you to cover this.

    inheriting property tax

    I would say that it depends on you local laws, but don't count on being able to do this. If the property changes hands, they will likely do a new tax assessment.

    Is this a broken contract?

    You never really had a contract in the first place. Also, from you chat, you are laying into eBay pretty good, yet they have no control over what happened. The question I have is, why did you never contact the seller? Maybe they would have gone ahead and sold you the vehicle. It's true...

    Foreclosure Notice for tenants of 4-plex

    The question I have is who gave you the foreclosure notice? Also, what exactly are you being summoned for? If you all are only renters, then you have nothing to do with the foreclosure, other than you need to look for another place to live. So that is the question - what are you responding...

    Premises Liability Injury from glass

    I would first demand that he pay the out of pocket. He's going to refuse, but you need to take that first step. After he refuses, file a claim in small claims court. You need to get ahold of the window guy to have him testify. Often times they won't even take a notarized statement as...

    Government grant sais im not an adult!!!!!

    I'm not sure I understand why you are asking, but legally you are an adult. You parents may be claiming you on their taxes, but You became an adult at 12 midnight on your 18th birthday. You can drink, buy property, own a gun, and if you shoot someone with that gun, there isn't even a hint of...

    How good of case do I have for small claims court?

    You can try, but I don't think you are going to get anywhere. A Sunday paper would be pretty thick, and it's reasonable that it would be hard to push through as it is, and probably hard to tell the difference between the resistance of the push VS hitting something. Also, even if they were...

    I'm being sued

    They will never just write it off. What you needed to do was start sending them something, even if it's just a few dollars at a time. It shows a willingness to pay. However, that's the past, so here's where you are now. Ultimately what will end up happening is you will end up with a...

    Consumer Law, Warranties HOA Board Signed Contract for Termite Tenting

    If the 3 day cancelation period is passed, then your only real hope is to contact Terminex and see if they will still cancel the contract. Explain the situation, however, be prepared for tenting. You may also consider contacting an attorney to see if the president of the HOA is liable since...

    In Illinois employement is "At Will" which means that unless you were under some sort of contract (including a union) they do not need a reason to terminate you, as long as it was not descrimination. You might be able to do file a suit based on the attendance record of the other employee vs...
