Three (3) years is way too long to reschedule a NATZ interview that was cancelled for a legitimate reason. I suggest you have an attorney contact USCIS and suggest that you may file a federal lawsuit if action is not taken on your file.
My case is currently being pleaded down to DWAI, in New York, that is a traffic violation w/a BAC of .07. Texas does not have an equivalent. My New York attorney is unable to council me on how it will affect the Texas driving privileges.
In both New York and Texas, a DWI can mean that the driver is legally intoxicated, with a blood alcohol content of at least 0.08 percent. Under NY law, DWAI means "driving while ability impaired, either by drugs or, in your case, by ingestion of alcohol which results in a BAC (blood alcohol... Read more »

Well, if your ex-brother-in-law didn't have a legal reason to pull you over, then your rights may well have been violated. Even if he had reason for the stop, if you didn't consent to the search of your vehicle and he had no probable cause independent of consent, again, you may have a... Read more »
It was a year ago. I had to hire an attorney after realizing this couldn't be handled with just insurance companies. My car was totalled, I haven't had a car since, for some reason my GAP Ins would pay in full so now I owe Ford more money each month, I have medical bills from the... Read more »
You should contact your attorney to have him/her explain every settlement deduction, as deducting medical costs is normal practice in personal injury settlements. The medical bills were likely used to prove up your case and that is one of the types of damages that was recovered. The medical bills... Read more »
You need to contact: (1) your insurance company, (2) your friend's insurance company, and (3) avoid speaking with anyone else about the case or posting about it on the internet. Either your insurance or your friend's will provide you with an attorney.

Yes, you have to go to court. The ticket is issued to you in lieu of your being taken into custody. Your signature acknowledges this. Your refusal could have resulted in your being taken into custody. In this instance, he wrote refusal as "his notes" to indicate that he... Read more »

Hi:
Your question can be generally answered but I would need to see the "charging instrument" or Information, to give solid legal advice. Nevertheless, Misdemeanor crimes can have the sentenced enhanced or extended through Chapter 12 of the Penal Code of Texas. Thus, if you have... Read more »
A Texas attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. It could depend on what you signed. As a GENERAL practice nationwide, mediations tend to be non-binding. But it would be best if you carefully read (or reviewed with a Texas attorney) the terms of what you signed. If it... Read more »
A Texas attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. The description provided here is very brief, but your first step could be to reach out to med mal attorneys. You would need to demonstrate that the hospital breached a duty of medical care. If you contacted law firms... Read more »
Just a thought experiment, but needed to be asked. Understandably, it would be difficult for a private citizen to file suit against the hordes of unvaxed choking the health care system, much like the novel SB8's workaround. While I understand the concept of sovereign immunity, I still... Read more »
It’s all a big giant scary mess. I cringe every time I see political leaders on TV saying parents, the vast majority of which are not virologists and probably do not even own microscopes, should decide whether vaccines are in the best interest of their children. What if parents decide they should... Read more »
You can design your trust so that a beneficiary of your estate is excluded from being a trustee, yes.
You can do that intentionally when designing your estate plan, yes.
My son is buying a condo. After he closes, I want to give him half the down payment in exchange for half ownership. What will be required?
He will have to execute a Deed to you for a one/half interest as a tenant in common.
But apparently it will be subject to a security interest, and the lender might exercise a due on sale clause for foreclosure. Hire a competent attorney prior to the condo purchase. You might be better... Read more »
A Texas attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. You could go online to find out whether there are current and pending actions involving the product(s), and whether law firms are accepting clients. Good luck

Contact an attorney in whatever state you moved from who can tell you what the law is on cancellations. Save the paperwork you got that was forwarded. Postmarks are key--sometimes, insurance companies being cheap, they hold their mail for a few days for a bulk rate. That means if the letter was... Read more »
I was in a multiple car collision and was not found at fault. The at fault insurance is refusing to pay for my rental car while parts are on backorder. They say they only pay for rental car while the car is actively being repaired. However with the missing parts the car is undriveable. I'm... Read more »
First, look for a better rental deal. Secondly, get them to put in writing that they only cover it while the car is being "actively repaired." Get a letter from the dealer saying they are ready to repair except waiting for parts. Send that to them. Then contact the Consumer division of... Read more »

His old job “Circuit Image Systems” is shown on the patent but they seem to be closed. John Leon is co inventor and I cannot find him.
If you are referring to patent 6445969, inventors Jim Kenney and John Leon, this patent has expired and is now in the public domain. If you look it up on Google patents, you can see the details.
I am a former LANG guardsmen who deployed with the LA guard and was awarded by the VA 100% permanent and total disability for PTSD arising from my deployment and I was denied the $100,000 benefit.. what can I do to follow up about this?
I recommend contacting a lawyer that handles VA disability appeals. I assume you are seeking an earlier effective date for your 100% P&T disability, but it is unclear from your question.
