of my body and I cannot perform theduties of the jobs that are required. Can I file a disability claim or something else that can bring income tomyself
An Illinois attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. You could repost and add Social Security as a category. There's no guarantee that all questions are ultimately picked up, but you would have better chances of a disability attorney seeing your post under... Read more »
I live in an RV Resort and have for 5 years. This new charge is rumored to begin November 1st. Just wondering if it's legal to charge up for UPS or Amazon packages delivered?
Yes, it's probably legal. If you stay at the RV resort on a month-to-month basis, and if you don't like the planned changes, you can move some place else.
Prison doesn't seem to be taking covid serious. Son was just sent to prison within a week a prison guard gives my son covid. He's had a high fever and hasn't called anyone in 3 days. Can I do something about the negligence of this prison?
Hard to say based just on what is stated here. How would your son prove he got COVID from this guard? And even if he could show that, unless he can also show that the prison knew but did nothing about the guard's condition - perhaps by them violating their own COVID mitigation policies, I am...

My ex told me it made him feel uncomfortable. We were on zoom for our mediation which was the first time his lawyer saw me Even though we are divorcing we still talk. I don’t feel comfortable going to court . This is a domestic violence case
What your ex's attorney said to him is none of your business; it's between the attorney and your ex. That it makes you feel uncomfortable is tough; get over it.
Any object may fit the definition of a weapon if carried or used with intent to injure. But what if one carries an object such as an axe, intending to harm others if necessary in self defence? Will he be allowed to continue carrying it, or be prosecuted for malicious intent?
Nobody is a mind reader. Intent to use an object as a weapon is something that is determined based on the facts. Of course, openly declaring or admitting your intentions can and will be used as evidence against you. A person carrying an ax is not committing a crime if that is all they are doing.... Read more »
The xray showed concerns for the screw being lateral which was causeing nerve damage to where I couldn’t walk and the screws he used one of them was broke and now I have permanent leg damage from it and no back doctor will help me after haveing 2 back to back surgeries Do I have any options
You should contact a personal injury / medical malpractice attorney immediately. The statute of limitations is quite short so it is important to get in to see a lawyer right away.
My father and I have the same name just Sr and Jr difference, we used to live at the same address but no longer. The collection lawyer was looking for him and got my online checking account that I use for my personal and eBay sales. I spoke to the lawyers who did this and was told they would fix it...

By rule, you had 30 days to file a written objection in court to the garnishment of your account. Separately, creditor potentially faces liability under both the federal and Maryland fair debt collection practices acts if they do not promptly remedy their error, and may be liable to you for civil...

I dont know when prosecutor will charge them but i would like to file a restraining order and i dont know first girls full name or any... Read more »
You should file a police report. If there is a criminal case filed against them or a juvenile case, it will likely come along with an order prohibiting contact. Otherwise, you'd need to go to the courthouse and request a restraining order.
i was half way past the cross walk and a white van (about 15 meters away) started to speed up so i backed up to let it drive by, but it stopped on the crosswalk and wait for me to go around it
Crosswalk laws can differ from one jurisdiction to another, one of the factors being whether there are traffic control devices. However, you describe obstruction of a crosswalk in what appears to be a deliberate act, and that is improper anywhere. Good luck

If you would use sentences, set apart by periods, it might be easier to understand what you are trying to ask.
As near as I can understand, your application to be personal representative of your father's estate was denied by the court, and your sister was appointed instead. Now,... Read more »
If you have evidence of who took your vehicle beyond mere suspicion and conjecture, then yes. I suggest you look into changing the keys and locks for your vehicle.
I got caught with two grams of meth and got a simple possession. I was wanting to get aderal to treat my adhd, since a apparently it's illegal to use meth to treat it
There is nothing illegal about a MD prescribing medicine to you. However the MD may not wish to treat you, and that is his discretion. You will need to see a doctor.
unconscious for an hour in the yard. i have a fracture left jaw, a fracture eye socket, bleeding on the brain. i was attack by an inmate with a sack of bocci balls for no apparent reason. the guards did not see it.
Under those circumstances they may not be liable for the attack but there may be liability for the failure to provide proper care. Your best bet is to contact the Pennsylvania Civil Liberties Union, ask for their prison rights project.
I truly believe that Mary Micheals the city attorney for warren covered criminal activity of an officer and Judge m Servitto helped her do it. I have proof of the fraud and perjury. How can all these inconsistencies not matter? Two different versions of one car accident in the narrative and... Read more »
Inconsistencies are not necessarily lies. Are you lying when you know you just went to a drug store, but say to someone later that you went to Walgreens when you really went to CVS?
Fraud and perjury connote intention, which is hard to place on an otherwise neutral witness. If it were any... Read more »
Loan company says I have to continue to pay for something that was never finished. I was promised 5k for purchasing system by the sales company who say they won’t pay because they didn’t get paid by Empire Solar. I’m sure there are others in same boat. I’d like to sue or do a clas action on... Read more »
You really need to discuss with a commercial law attorney in your local area. I had a case like this years ago over an ice machine that was financed for a fish market- they use lots of ice. The bad news is that the loan company is not subject to the same defenses in collecting on the financing,... Read more »

(2) Carries or possesses with intent to use unlawfully against another, a... Read more »
deceased. Was that legal for him to do as that was our marital property/
Ex-husband means there was a judgment of absolute divorce. The judgment either addressed the issue of ownership and division of the house or it did not.

If he’s mentally competent, and that can be a day to day thing with dementia, any lawyer can draft the POAs you need.

I contacted my neighbor and its her visitor and told her he couldn't park there and she refusing to move the vehicle. We live in the county in the state of South Carolina.
A South Carolina attorney familiar with local parking ordinances could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. As a general rule nationwide in most places, people can park on public streets freely. Good luck
