I developed a severe gambling addiction while taking Mirapex long-term. It stopped after I quit taking the drug. This has placed me on the brink of bankruptcy. Is this a valid basis for suing the manufacturer? Do the existence of prior class action lawsuits to which I was not a party prevent me... Read more »
A Michigan attorney could answer best, but your question remains open for a week. As a GENERAL matter, It seems like it would be a difficult case to establish. It could depend on what the warning label for Mirapex includes, but the drug is generally used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's... Read more »

I also don't see any citation which makes authorizing a sexually active youth to take some condoms, after being directly asked by same. There is no age limit on condoms. Why is this case posted publicly without permission?

My elderly father's wife suffers from addiction (refuses treatment) and abuses him. I have proof. He would not technically be considered a vulnerable adult but one could argue he is as he allows it to continue. She needs a guardian and court-mandated treatment. I cannot allow this to continue...

I think you should reconsider giving Adult Protective Services a call first. If you filed for guardianship - skipping that reporting step as you say - you'll find that before the court appoints a guardian, there will be someone appointed - a GAL - to investigate and make a report and... Read more »
My house is somehow in her trust I am going to lose everything
It is hard to tell what is really going on here. If you are living in a house that is owned by the trust, then you could face eviction if the trust does not allow you to live there and the trustee believes it is in the best interest of all concerned to sell the house. If you a beneficiary of the... Read more »
Are you the defendant? If not, your efforts would be better spent on retaining counsel for the defendant.

The file in which copies of money orders and checks are kept
It sounds as if you are requesting to see your landlord's payment ledger. There is no 'law' per se, however, if you are challenging how you made your payments or how they were credited, you should have copies of your own payment receipts through cancelled checks or money orders.... Read more »
Let’s say some dealership is trying to be slick and use Facebook marketplace. They post a product for ridiculously cheap knowing that product is way more then the posted price. Could a consumer sue the dealer to get the product for the posted price?
As they say, "the devil is in the details". You would really need to ascertain what, if any, strings are attached to the offer, and whether you met all those conditions. Let's just say, for example, a store advertised new refrigerators for $100, but the conditions were that you had... Read more »
A judge may opine about evidence, facts, and testimony properly presented. Importantly, that means they can determine one witness's "truth" may be more truthful than another witness; that's called credibility. If there is reason to believe a statement, I'm not sure what... Read more »
A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. As a GENERAL matter nationwide, evidence is gathered during the discovery process.

Child support would end; the child would be an heir and so would be entitled to at least some portion of your ex's estate. But if there is nothing in the estate, then it ends there.

You should first check with your attorney to determine your guidelines on each charge. 2nd degree arson is a 20 year felony, and 3rd degree arson is a 10 year felony.
