It depends how he is planning to present them. Nothing is easier than to pull up a message on the screen, change some of the wording, then print it out and pretend that this was the email he received. But since it is so easy to do this, the evidentary value of a simple printout is not really...

Sadly, I agree with your attorney. Of course, under a lot of tort theories you would have a case. But winning that case is a different story, it would surely cost time and money and nerves. I would like to see someone stand up and try to stop this abuse of abuse allegations, but it will be a...

Hm that sounds fishy. In many states the child support agencies nowadays can access public records and try to pinpoint the whereabouts of deadbeat fathers. Otherwise, there are private institutions who can do the work for a fee. It is pretty difficult to really vanish.

First of all: congratulations for getting the case dismissed. Second: Your immigration attorney is right, they "can". But it is not a given, that they "will". Your attorney should try to argue for you in case that they will.

It is not clear that you lost your citizenship by acquiring Canadian citizenship. Usually nowadays a dual citizenship is permitted under US law. To give up American citizenship you would have to make a declaratory act. Probably you are still an American citizen. American citizens are...

You are probably looking for the defense of "laches" as it is pretty well explained in this case: THE GREEK ORTHODOX PATRIARCHATE OF JERUSALEM, Plaintiff, -against- CHRISTIE'S, INC., ANNE GUERSAN, and JOHN/JANE DOE, Defendants. 98 Civ. 7664(KMW) UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE...

I symapthize with you, especially since I myself am an American citizen of German descent. From what I can see you have received all the necessary information. What you now need to do is hire a competent immigration attorney and have him or her review the case and show you the different venues...

No, they don't need a lawyer, but often it is helpful to have a lawyer. Once they are married she needs to apply for permanent residency in the United States (a Green Card). There are a few different ways to do this: -she can wait in Canada until the Green Card is issued (it usually takes...

It depends. Basically the situation is this: The age of consent is a barrier used in criminal law. If you have sexual relations with someone younger than the "age of consent", the law says that even if they consented to this, their consent is invalid and you can be prosecuted for rape. The...

criminal proceedings and civil proceedings are very different. It is well possible that civil claims are possible where criminal charges seem difficult.

It is probably not a crime, but it can be some tort. One should advise him that he might become liable for damages under a property interference or a business tort theory. It could become costly.

We have had that exact situation here before, if you look at the threads in the forum. This can be really tricky. You should go to the court and try to get a trial date before the I-94 expires, because in the other case we had here the defendant was not readmitted to the US because of the...

I cannot tell you what to do since I don't know the contract, but to me it looks fishy that they obviously urgently want you to sign something. And that is exactly what I would not do. I would consult an attorney and have him look at the contract and tell you exactly what your rights and...

If you did not get a summons you have not been charged with anything. You do not "receive" a misdemeanor, you have to be charged with one and then be convicted of one in a court. This cannot happen without you getting notice.

It depends on what she claims. If she gave them to you as a present there is probably no way to claim them back.

This is serious stuff which you should not attempt to handle without an attorney. You should hire one asap. He will then explain to you all your options including civil claims against the bouncer, the club, may be even against the cop and the PD. And of course you need a defense attorney to...

It would be very unusual to get actual jail time for a 3rd degree mis. as a first time offender. I would recommend at least to consult an attorney to find out your options.

it does not matter on whose name it was registered. If it is being driven with a fake sticker the cop can find out in a second if the car is insured or registered. This way you only drag your parents into your illegal behavior, because they could also become liable. I don't understand why...

Most probably she would have no basis for the claim. A gift is that, a gift. Usually it comes unconditional.
