    is false advertisement against the law?

    I would say you need to contact a local lawyer to handle this. This is going to be a very involved case, and as stated, it may not fall under false advertising. False advertising laws generally pertain to a product being sold. So if you see an ad for a product, but the product is not as...

    Would this be legal?

    Yes, change the locks. Your niece has residence there and has the right to enter her own home. Your mother is not a resident and she has no legal basis to remove anything from the home.

    14 yr old default judgment?

    If there was a real judgment entered it would show up on your credit report as unpaid until the SOL is up. Wait and see what the court can provide to you, but as stated DO NOT contact the law firm. The whole thing sounds like a sham. It's not unheard of for a debt collector or a shady...

    Stipulation of Discontinuance

    Well a stipulation of discontinuance means they are stopping action that that collections, but without prejudice means it hasn't been ruled on in court, meaning they can file that case in court again. So it sounds like they are going to re-file a lawsuit against you for the remaining owed...

    Burglary, Arson, Home Invasion Attempted Burglary (window was 7 year old girl)

    Talk about issues. One point on the very first post - you said you blacked out, and later the house looked familiar. You also had seen the girl at the house some time earlier. Do you not think it's possible that while you were plowed off your @$$ that you might have gone over there? It may...

    is false advertisement against the law?

    Here's my question - did you quit your other job without calling this place and getting all of the details first? Sounds like that might be the case since you based everything on the ad. If that is true, what made you think you would even get hired? What if you would have quit your job and...

    You will have no problem coming back to the US. This is a civil matter, not a criminal matter.

    Assault & Battery falsely accused of domestic violence

    True, but I would think he could also use this against her argument for having the restaining order in the first place. She claims she feel threatened by him, but she's OK showing up at his house.

    Personal Loan from a Friend

    First of all you need to get the whole thing in writting with your friend. Spell out every detail. From that point it's none of the bank's business why the money is being spent. It's her money. There are really only two times when a bank will question large transactions - #1 a large...

    Assault & Battery falsely accused of domestic violence

    The next time she is due to drop off the kids and pick them up, if you can, set up a video camera in a window facing that door. Don't let the kids know. Get a copy of that day's paper ahead of time, then when she pulls into the drive, film the date on the paper and DO NOT pause. Let it record...

    Arrest, Search, Seizure, Warrant Racial profiling, false arrest, color of law violation, no warrant

    If there is any racial profiling it's on the part of the people who went to the police. But from their point of view it may have looked like a gun. Maybe the kid who had it was acting dumb, holding it like he had a gun. Who knows.

    worst hotel stay ever

    Another point to consider is contacting the TV news. They usually have some consumer help segment, and this sounds like something they would love. Small claims court might be just as well, if not better, but the news is free, and the hotel would probably cringe at the bad press and start...

    Screwed out of vacation time.

    The workplace is an airline. The vacation policy is you earn a certain amount of vacation time at your anniversary with the company, but you don't get the time until Jan 1 the following year. In other words, the amount of vacation time you get this year is based on how long you have been with...

    Fraud, Embezzlement, Bad Checks Aunt accuses me of credit card fraud

    She can file charges all she wants, but it won't lead anywhere. All you need to do is tell the investigator (if there even is an investigation) what happened. Also it would help if you had any of the envelopes showing it was sent back. Don't worry about going to jail. She loaned you the...

    Tape recording a conversation

    My parents own a rental house, and the couple next door, who are in their 80's are the stereotypical "get off my grass" old neighbors. The lady especially. They came and cussed my dad out because their grass died, claiming the bugs from my parents place migrated to their yard. Anyway, for...
