    Alcohol & Drugs: MIP, MIC, Intoxication MIP<Do my parents have to know?

    What state are you in? What happens secondary to getting an mip depends on what state you are in and the the state law says. Are you in Missouri, New York, somewhere else? Besides what happens legally, I think you'd be smart to talk to your parents about this. Secrets have a bad habit...

    Why Bother Posting Anything!

    Where does it say you WILL get legal advice? I know you're frustrated. In general you can't expect solid legal advice from an online discussion group. These are discussion forums. If people have time and information they may post helpful advice. Often it will be general because no one is...

    Roommate is about to break the lease

    Is your roomate on the lease? You didn't say if your roomate was on the lease. If he is not on the lease he has no legal responsibility (he's just a jerk for moving out on you). The first thing you should do is read a copy of your lease very carefully to see who is on the lease and what it...

    My mausoleum space is occupied by someone else.

    Did you sign a deed for the spaces? Does it cover anything remotely like this situation? I also think whether it was an honest mistake or fraud on their part would have a significant impact on any civil case you pursue. I

    mistaken identity by credit collectors

    I'm not a lawyer. As I see it there are two possibilites. The serious one is that you are actually a victim of identity fraud and someone out there is using your SS number to get things like car loans. The other is that a collection agency has mistakenly assumed you owe them money and confused...
