    Power of Attorney- COVID victim, took estate and money?

    I can't help wondering how much of this is concern for a man who is clearly at the end of his life anyway and doubtless suffering, and how much of it is jealousy that someone else may be coming into some money when the OP isn't.

    Power of Attorney- COVID victim, took estate and money?

    When my father and stepmother were married, she was 36 (not quite nine years older than me) and he was 52. They were married for 34 years. He died five years ago and she is still grieving. Just because there is a wide gap in their ages doesn't mean there wasn't a sincere relationship between them.

    I thought the deadline to file suit after you got your right to sue letter was 90 days?

    Does it constitute as abandonment if a husband fails to return from a trip abroad?

    There's no point pursuing this until there are some real, and not hypothetical, facts.

    Does it constitute as abandonment if a husband fails to return from a trip abroad?

    There is no Federal definition of "abandonment" for this purpose. Please identify the US state in which this is occurring.

    We're all hoping that's what s/he meant but we may never know for sure! :D

    Darwin Award Candidate

    I'm cringing just looking at it. Meanwhile, in the "weird questions asked of HR" contest, a colleague of mine is this week's front runner with "who do I talk to to change my depends".

    Summer 2023 Travel abroad with my teenage boy

    Jack - I think you missed the issue here. The question is not classes or no classes; the question is online classes vs in person classes. And at least in the case of the school I work for, the answer appears from the admission requirements that they don't care if the classes were online vs in...

    Summer 2023 Travel abroad with my teenage boy

    I cannot speak for all schools. I doubt if all schools share a common concern in this regard. However, for what it's worth, I work in the administrative offices of one of the most prestigious universities in the world. I just reviewed the admission requirements, including the Application Tips...

    Credit card balance inquiry

    I very strongly suspect that unless you have previously provided the credit card company with written authorization from the card holder to be granted that information, Member Services or Customer Services or whatever they call the department that answers the CS line, would refuse to provide you...

    Arizona Surprise bill

    I'm no longer involved in handling claims on a day to day basis; I might be involved in a claim payment once a month and more often prescription claims for some reason. However, I did find this for you that seems to have a fairly clear explanation and suggests your next steps...

    Timeclock rounding, is this legal?

    At this point, I agree with calling the PA DLI. PA is not fast, but they are thorough - I've dealt with them a couple of times. If what is being done violates the pay laws, PA will let the employer know it, without letting them know who complained. If the policy is legal, the DLI will explain it...

    Timeclock rounding, is this legal?

    Time clock rounding is legal, in up to the nearest 15 minute increment, as long as it is even handed and practiced regardless of who it benefits. If you are rounded forward to 8:00 when you come in at 7:53, that's okay as long as when you come in at 8:07 you are rounded back to 8;00. The...

    retrospective payments

    Yes, there is. It's four years in MA. AND even if you were within the time frame, which you are not, you would need a doctor who would verify that your illness was CAUSED BY your employment. Workers comp DOES NOT APPLY unless the illness or injury can be medically tied to your employment. I

    Why is my ADA discrimination case being rejected by employment law firms?

    Based solely on your post above, I don't see that you have an ADA discrimination case at all. Or, frankly, any other case. That could be why you're not finding any takers. If there are additional facts that you think would change the answers, by all means provide them.

    retrospective payments

    Workers compensation only applies when the illness or injury can be confirmed as having been caused by your employment. MA does not have a state disability plan. Since unemployment and a private employer's disability plan are incompatible with one another (if you are eligible for one it's...

    Can employer withhold your last paycheck?

    I'm not sure they can take the whole check under MO law, though. A call to the DOL can't hurt. Worst case, the OP is told there's nothing they can do.
