    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Do not get me started on the snarled bureaucracy that is the NY DMV. You'll be here all day.

    District manager Keeps contacting me to go to work

    Unfortunately, if you have only been with your current employer since November of last year, FMLA does not apply. Which means that the doctor's note holds exactly as much weight as the employer wants it to. If the employer chooses to ignore it, there's no law that's going to tell him he can't...

    District manager Keeps contacting me to go to work

    Unless FMLA is involved, a doctor's note holds no force in law. So let's see if FMLA is even a possibility. How long have you worked for this employer? How many employees does this employer have within 75 miles of your location? In the last 12 months, have you worked a minimum of 1,250 hours...

    Why are rental cars suddenly using Apportioned tabs?

    This is all valuable information as I am looking to retire in less than five years and DH is already semi-retired (he no longer is teaching but he still consults); MA is too expensive a state for us to live in after retirement and we are trying to decide between Maine and New Hampshire. Thank...

    What indicates a federal agent?

    Jean Webster, a great-niece of Mark Twain's, published a book around 1915 or so that referenced the Jukes and the Kallikacks. As I collect children's books from that era, I thus came to know about them as well. (I'm still a few years younger than Jack. Not many, but a few.)

    Kelli Christina v. Brad Pitt, Make It Right Lawsuit

    Kelli Christina, regardless of who you are and regardless of who has or has not "read the case" (and it's not up to you to decide who has and hasn't) the rules of this forum require that you post your comments ONCE. Not multiple times. I am closing this thread until you decide that you can...

    former employer gave 2 different termination dates. It was a no fault termination due to disability

    Regardless of whether the employer was right or wrong, the poster's issue is how to prove he was entitled to unemployment prior to July 4. Unless the poster is over the age of 59 1/2, in which case Ron is unquestionably correct (I'm not saying otherwise in any case; there's definitely more here...

    What NOT to put in Will

    I recommend avoiding a tontine, unless you want to end up in a British murder mystery.

    former employer gave 2 different termination dates. It was a no fault termination due to disability

    Unless you have a binding contract or CBA that expressly says otherwise, the longest your employer is required to hold your job is 12 weeks. After that, if you are not able to return to work, the employer is legally allowed to let you go. He is not obligated to allow you to return with...

    Seeking Help in Berkeley, Alameda County, Northern California

    This is far, far beyond the resources of a message board. You are going to need to seek the assistance of an attorney in your state who is able to review all the details; a message board cannot help you.

    Consumer Law, Warranties Can podiatrist force me to complete and pay for six sessions

    It is rare for you to be required to pay for care that did not happen. If you did not sign a contract agreeing to all six sessions and if you did not have appointments scheduled for which you did not show up, I doubt if you are responsible for paying for anything beyond the one treatment you did...
