Truly so very sorry to hear that you're experiencing anything resembling this case. Hard to believe this happened almost 20 years ago. Many things have changed. After much grief and as a result of other circumstances, the mother ultimately obtained custody of her natural child but was...

I completely share your disgust if companies are selling one weight or quantity and supplying less. If what you're saying is true, you can file a complaint with your state attorney general. You may also want to speak to a class action attorney and I'm sure one of them will get to the bottom of...

True - but what's going on combined with massive privacy concerns may be inviting some type of regulation.

While interesting, respectfully, perhaps we may can focus more on less purely political news and more of the legal news that may be connected to fundamental legal issues. It is also less divisive. I'll name one that came to mind, which is the swirling controversy regarding Facebook and Twitter...

Guys, we don't know the circumstances of what is going on here. Giving the poster the benefit of the doubt, it is possible that an offer of a refund was made but the customer did not respond. I'm actually surprised and impressed that the police showed up. I often hear in New York City from...

"The store manager herself even started that she was not aware of what this man was capable of..." I'd like to be a little more sympathetic to our poster and his girlfriend as this may not be a concern about compensation but comfort at the workplace, which is completely understandable. I...

I'm not stating that this is your answer and the following is not legal advice. But if what you say is purportedly true, this is what I might do if I was in your situation - and I mean all of it being true, not just some of it or the problem will not be solved. If a debt is already sold, I'm not...

Hi guys, hopefully we can find another topic given where this is going. I really loathe to shut down any conversation and have leeway for non-legal discussion. Politics have become a very challenging, divisive subject and polarity feels like it's at its apex (at least I can't figure how the...

This is very true. In fairness, I think people assume they will receive copies since that is what one may expect from the norm and that obtaining a copy at any time is presumed to be not too difficult since it's the agreement both had signed.

I think that many termination cases there are defensive stances which employers take which feel like they are hiding something. Although reading more on this topic regarding prolonged bench duration and the assumption that you were working for some technology consulting company, e.g. doing...

By the way you're describing the situation, it seems that the attorney is willing to take your case to review your medical records and send the dentist a letter and hope it prompts a settlement. Getting to the heart of your question, people and insurance companies don't typically just pay...

Very sorry to hear about your troubles. Recently I've heard some awful custody claims as well and these types of games disgust me. In addition to the good advice above regarding retaining a criminal law attorney, I'll say this much about your wanting to go to the news. It is understandable to...

I thought this was an interesting high profile case of online fraud via catfishing. It was reported that a lawsuit was filed in the Eastern District Court of Texas by a healthcare CEO, Kelli Christina, against actor Brad Pitt and his Make it Right foundation claiming that she was defrauded...

Without seeing the entire contract it is impossible to come to any firm legal conclusion. There may very well be other clauses which will define or limit the scope of what this may mean.

Might just be a colloquialism, e.g. a business partner with whom you're working in the form of an incorporated business.

I don't know if it's the case here but I've had people approach me with potential "cases" of malfeasance where they didn't actually put the pen and ink on the paper but put forward the action into motion. When the malfeasance was discovered there was a backtracking on whether consent was truly...

From my experience, combating forgery in court may require the use of a report and/or testimony of a handwriting analysis expert. But that isn't the issue here. The issue here appears to be one of consent. I am not sure I understand your argument. If you provided your partner with consent to...

Very interesting post on classic law enforcement entertainment.

I appreciate you're just trying to earn some money but there isn't going to be a way to avoid the important survey requirements if you want to earn income. On a legal level, the terms of any offer apply which you must accept them or there is no agreement, even if you fulfill just part of the...

Good question. It appears this may have been an error or anomaly and the Virginia Boar of Elections has made it clear that you can have a witness, but failure to have one will NOT invalidate your ballot. See here in the large box: Absentee and Early Voting - Virginia Department of Elections
