    Question about pleading the 5th

    It's the same as when you plead not guilty. As it was once explained to me, pleading Not Guilty (or, pleading the 5th) is not saying I didn't do it; it's saying, I am standing on my right under the Constitution to have the prosecution prove me guilty.

    Can employer withhold your last paycheck?

    My reading of the Missouri final paycheck law is that such a deduction is not permissible, and it's strongly discouraged under the FLSA. I would definitely recommend a call to the MO DOL. ETA - that doesn't mean you can't be asked to pay the bill directly.

    wage loss and medical bill lawsuit

Anyone can file an insurance claim. Not everyone gets to go to court and have a judge kick the Bad Guy's ass for you, in front of you...

    Can domestic violence victims mention prior abuse at trial?

    You might also want to consider hiring with a lawyer who can represent you and your rights. The prosecutor represents the state, not you. Even a consultation (many give free or low cost) might help you better understand how the system works.

    Asked to Sign Non-Compete for Internship

    Is it actually a non-compete you are being asked to sign, or a non-disclosure? They are NOT the same thing, and if the concern is trade secrets, a non-disclosure is much more likely. Non-disclosures are in general much less limiting than non-competes.

    Endowed department head hiring at SDSU

    Discrimination based on what school one attended is legal. Nothing that you have posted suggests that the school has violated any laws or protected rights, and nothing you have posted suggests that you have any basis for legal action.

    Domestic Violence & Civil Orders I spit and missed her face

    And that's the last answer you're getting here. This board is not and never was intended to be a substitute for an attorney for someone who doesn't want to pay for one.

    Prison Farms?

    We're not the ones you have to convince. You want to see a change in the system, contact your Congressman. They can do something about it. We can't.

    Lying in discovery (division of marital property)

    I have before now had employees (or the dependent/beneficiaries of deceased employees) who are able to show "proof" that the employee had a life insurance policy through the university I work for.
