LOL. That might cause more problems than it's worth though. Sticks and stones may break their bones but knowing how to use the system is that much more gratifying. :D

It isn't right but there is very little that you could do about it. If you would even think of suing, you would likely have problems with proof and even remedy -- what kind of work relationship would you have?

This is a criminal matter. If you have been receiving harassing telephone calls, call your telephone company. There should be a feature called "call trace." Here is some information from Southwestern Bell: http://www.swbell.com/Products_Services/UserGuides/0,2536,407,00.html You should...

Great link. I read the details about the accounts of the case and it was pretty shocking. It appears that the dog owners had plenty of prior warning, especially since the dog was an attack dog. While I can't say she did it on purpose, I do think that she knew that her dogs could kill someone. I...

Disgraceful. Repulsive. Incredible. I got the letter yesterday and could not believe my eyes. All it says is how wonderful their service is, as rated by JD Power. We lost hundreds of thousands of jobs in New York City and these guys have the nerve to sock it to us like this. What do they care...

Others with greater experience might add but I'm assuming MIP = Minor In Possession summons and PBT = Preliminary Breath Test. I believe that the results of the test must be over .02 percent. However, you may have received a summons because you were holding an open container of alcohol and...

I want to say that all this in good natured discussion. :) We don't know many of the facts -- was your injury quite severe or will it heal within the week? Did/does this person have a propensity for violence and intended to cause you serious injury or did a rare occasion happen that drove this...

I had a contract with a hosting company to host our web site but they had way too much downtime for any reasonable company. I sent them an email (I don't have their telephone number) demanding that they refund the money I put down and they replied that the setup fee and the payment for the month...

I'm wondering why we are seeing all these Internet stock scams and whether they are related to the same problem since they seem to involve all the trading houses and going public. Can anyone explain what is going on?

With detailed issues like creating investment companies you definitely want to see a lawyer who specializes in securities in your own state. I think that was a good point made earlier. Securities are usually heavily regulated.

Re: insanity 9 and a half years for discovery? :eek: This can't be right. You mean he was charged with the crime and pretrial discovery took 9 years? That's really screwed up. I still don't think that is a double jeopardy issue but something very bizarre going on. Was the crazy guy kept in jail...

Being appointed as an administratrix does not give you any additional rights as to inheritance, although you may be able to also collect a fee in handling the affairs of the estate. So if there were 2 heirs and you were one of them it is possible that you may keep a fee as administratrix and a...

What does it say in the deeds? (I'm assuming you know what they say because they are filed.) I'm curious, why won't owner #5 pay the maintenance and who does he expect to perform maintenance on the road? Does it say anything about how there is a determination of maintenance needed on the road...

Very odd, especially when you have two employees, one male and one female receiving different treatment. Wow. This may be an unfair labor practice or employment discrimination. You might want to document everything and make sure that everything is handled in writing and don't do things pursuant...

It sounds like they are taking definitely taking advantage of your situation. Unfortunately too many landlords dare depositors to take them to court and the law does not punish landlords severely enough for this to be a preventative measure. Most important is to look at the words on the...

I think the first thing that you might want to do is obtain the employee manual. If they are stating "well it's company policy" then the first thing to do is see if there is a company policy. You don't even have to point to the fact that anyone led you to believe that it was ok to leave if there...

People should own up to the truth. The law can only go so far.

Are you an at will employee? It would seem that they can decide to change your hours if they want to or let you go at will. You may have a case for some damages (don't really know how much) if they knew that you had another position and you took them and passed up on other opportunities based...

OK. I'll do that when the trademark stuff is back online. But don't I have the right to challenge registrations like that? I remember people could do that and then registrars like Network Solutions would put the name on hold or confiscate it or something like that. Thanks, Jon

Anyone know where this one is going? It's really confusing. It seems like the court is taking forever just to arrive at the simple conclusion that everybody knows that Napster is around to get members who are interested in getting something for free that they would otherwise pay for!!!! So...
