Is there any area (city, states, etc.) that arrests someone for not doing anything when an illegal act is in progress? Like in the last season of Seinfeld...the one that lands them in trial and sentenced to so many years.
I'm wondering, especially for these "gang rapes" that keep gaining national attention.

I work for a company where I constantly get more than 8 hours. The least amount of time I have worked was 40.86 and the most 95 hours. Not once have I recieved over time. I called and asked the company and was told they only pay straight time, so I looked online and found out it was illegal to do that. So I talked to some of my co-workers and they said that if you complain, if you go to the labor board, or do anything for overtime you will get fired. How do I go about getting compensated for my time worked if I cant afford to get fired right now?

I sold a car to this guy and he owes me some money. Before we made a deal, i asked him to get the car check out by a michanic to be sure that there was nothing wrong with it. He didn't get it checked out and he agreed to the deal. After couple weeks, he gets the car checked out and finds that the car needs new ball joint. Now he doesn't want to pay me the rest of the money because he thinks that there is a law in Illinois that states that after buying a car from a consumer, you have 30 days to check it out (i think that's bs). And if there is something wrong with the car safety wise (he tells me that the wheel will fall off eventually) the consumer can't sell it even if he didn't know about it (i find that hard to believe) Some people told me that once you buy a car from consumer, it's sold AS IS, no warranty. I made a mistake. I never got bill of sale because i trusted the guy. I gave him my signed title. And he paid cash. What can i do to get rest of my money from the guy?State of IL

My friends is a good daddy he always takes his child when he is supposed to, buys her things acts like a daddy should,but him and his baby momma can't get along. His baby momma is a bi*ch. He is a great man, he just made a mistake. He works hard to pay his child support and to support his child, but his baby momma keeps going to the courts to get the judge to up his child support payments.

Do you think this is right or does the system need to change this. If a good man takes care of his kid(s) like a man should, why are they being punished by having to pay more child support at the expense of the babymamma who thinks that he should pay more.

Dont you think everyone could make a pretty good case? They have a multi-billion/year net profit, isnt the public entitled to some of that via the courts?

They didn't press charges or anything. but I was losing sleep over it the other day..

I worked for a summer internship at 14/hr for the summer. At that point, they asked me to work extra during the school year.. I tried my best but come Jan.. I couldn't do it. At that point, they realized they had overpaid me.. I had no clue! They asked me to come in to compensate for around $1000 overpay. (they thought I was coming in once a week.. but I was only coming in every 2nd week)

I just brushed them off and ignored their calls.. I had no more time to work there! It was a 2 hour bus ride to get there.. I had enough!

My terror of a roommate says I verbally comitted to a one year lease. A week after I moved out she sent me a threat saying she will sue me if I do not pay her for the remainder of the years rent. I did not verbally state, nor did I sign a contract. Now she has friends who have written letters saying I stated that I would live with her and pay rent for a year (I have made sure to never commit verbally or on paper to that.) She says that I will also have to pay her attorneys fees. Just wondering if she can get away with the minipulation and lies? A part of this saga is before I moved I told her I was "thinking of moving" and she went crazy. I left for a few days and received a text stating I needed to have my things out within the week or she was placing them into the garage. I went to get them immediately and she had packed everything up! I had paid rent for the month and was forced to move my things out before the month was over! Can you give me any advice/

How many of you have seen questions/answers insulting every religion under the sun left up on this site? Do we really have freedom of speech in the USA or were my grandparents lied to when they came here?

How do you think it would read? Personally, I do not think a gay marriage ban will make it's way into the Constitution. More likely, an ammendment that restricts free movement throughout the country is likely.

I'm a single father in Florida with custody of my 7-year-old daughter. At the time of my divorce 2 years ago, my ex-wife and I agreed that I would take custody (she would retain full parental rights, of course) of our daughter. Now, two years later, she is starting to make noises about wanting custody back. She's now living with a boyfriend.

My understanding of Florida law is that post-judgement modification of custody is very difficult to petition for, and that she would have to show a serious lapse in our daughter's care before the court would be able to modify custody. I've taken exemplary care of her, footing the bill for just about everything, including her school. The only drawback to my situation is that I work odd hours, including nights and weekends. When I work, though, she stays with my parents, who live half a mile away.

I guess I'm just looking for reassurance from people knowledgable in these things that my position is secure!
