    problematic consumer- What are the rights for this case

    I would send the court documentation showing the original invoice amount with the discount applied. If the refund was made to cover the amount paid based on the original invoice and the plaintiff is trying to get more, he can't. Show proof of the invoice and the refund check to the court and...

    Age Discrimination?

    That I don't know. You should probably contact your local EEOC office. They will have information based on your local state regulations. Good luck, Nick

    Deposit

    Okay, that takes care of one of the questions. Have you signed anything? Did the leasing agent make you sign an application that states they can hold your deposit for any period of time? Maybe an application with limits on how long they can take to find you a place? -Nick

    I dispute my former landlord's estimation of my repairs after moving out

    I would at least write the company a letter explaining that you don't agree with the charges. Just remember to specifically identify the charges you dispute, and separate them from the charges to don't dispute. Be very clear what you are willing to pay them for. Explain the pictures you have...

    Age Discrimination?

    If you can prove a pattern of behavior from your employer in that they consistently overlook older applicants in favor of younger ones, you can file an EEOC. The catch is that you will also want to look at other factors. Do the younger new hires have more experience? Are they better educated...

    Homeowner Association argument

    If it were me I would demand a new vote where one household counted as one vote, rather than husband and wife. Is this HOA boss lady's house in the area that will benefit by having everyone pay for the fence? If so, sounds like a conflict of interest. There should be a neutral person in...

    My boss got me pregnant, will I loose my job?

    Additionally, I didn't realize this thread was so old until after I posted... I guess at this point the woman would be about 5 or 6 months pregnant unless she terminated. Hope it turned out well.

    My boss got me pregnant, will I loose my job?

    Sexual harassment is a matter of how you personally feel about the advances. If he put you in a position where you felt your job was at risk if you didn't have sex with him that is sexual harassment, regardless if it was consensual at the time. That is a quid pro quo. I am not a lawyer, but it...

    Wrong amount offered ... My fault?

    It may be a good show of faith if you approach the employer before having your lawyer send a letter. A move like that may be considered hostile by the employer. Good luck. I know I would be hurting if that happened. I am a little concerned that they didn't notice you were being paid double...

    Terminated & Video Taped Without Consent

    I would step lightly if I were you. It sounds like you have already admitted to stealing from your employer and frankly, you are lucky they didn't just have you thrown in jail. -Nick

    The cost of law school

    I noticed there are no posts in this forum and hope someone will at least see this one. I am very interested in going to law school. As an undergrad I had several professors who strongly suggested I go on to law school. Although, in researching potential schools I find the price of tuition...

    My mother ripped off by contractor

    HAHA! That is awesome. Very poetic. Isn't a verbal contract admissible in court as long as it can be supported by witnesses? -Nick

    Customer receives mail order and denies receipt even though package was signed for!

    Did you post office provide you a copy of the signature form? Can you prove that it was a person at that address who signed for the package? If so then I would think you have a case against the customer. Unfortunately I don't know how you would file that case considering it was in another...

    Ex-Wife Owes Me Money

    Have you considered a hearing with a judge regarding the enforcement of your divorce decree? You may want to see if this can be handled without filing a small claim. I don't know about small claims in Oregon, but I can tell you what I know about Utah... it may apply. Yes, small claims would...
