Had a vechicle fix from wreck. They undercharged me. Then after I left they call me on my cell phone asking for more money. Then they call for a couple of days later asking for more. The amount is right that I should owe them but I was there 2 times and they couldn't get the bill right.

Non-interpretivism encourages judges to use additional resources in intepreting constitutional provisions, such as history, social sciences, and moral philosophy. When compared with interpretivism;which is that judges should interpret constitutional provisions according to the text and the orginal content, what makes non-interpretivism better than interpretivism?

Why are people offended by religious display?
Our laws guarantee us freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.
The same people who preach "tolerance" get pissed off when they see a manger scene on public land during Christmas, and get kids in trouble for praying at school. Why?
I know some of you are like this, maybe you can shed some light.

My PSD repaired a water main break on a Thursday. Next day, my neighbor's house caught fire. The Fire Dept was there fast but when they hooked to the hydrant, the hydrant broke. Then they hooked to another hydrant and the water main broke. 10 fire companies worked to contain the fire with water from the creek but to no avail. Then my house caught and burnt to the ground... 22 rooms of it! After watching my house burn for 13 hours, the water company guy came around and told my husband "Gee, maybe I should have looked a little closer at that break, huh"?
My question is... In the state of WV (I am not from here, just here because of hubby's contract for 6 more months) can the water company be sued for negligence? If so, where do I find a lawyer that isn't afraid to go up against a PSD?
Any help or ideas would really be appreciated. We literally lost everything! I am at wits end with this.
Thanks in advance for your ideas.

My father has told my mother and all 7 children what he wants & doesn't want upon the occasion he is unable to communicate. He has been emphatic about it for many yrs. He filled out a living will at 3 hospitals through the yrs. In August his primary dr made arrangements for him to go to the nearest big city to have an angio done. He went but then backed out. His primary physician then talked him into it again. He finally agreed & was having the angio when they stopped because his main artery was 99% blocked and rushed him into emer open heart surgery. He agreed to the surgery while still recuperating from sedation of the angio. He got a very condensed "this & this & this may happen" He had strokes after surgery & has been in a comma 13 days. He has started to wake up a little but is still uncommunicative. He has major brain damage. He did not want to be on life support any more than a couple days. The hosp is refusing to support his will.

To elaborate, one friend was out of town and while he was gone his roommates used the master key to unlock his room to play some music (which had never bothered the person before) and then they left to go out and while they were gone this kids room was robbed. Now, before leaving his roommates shut his door but didn't lock it. When they got back his computer, game cube and a lot of other valuble things were stolen. Well his roommates offered him $1600 (which was all they had) to replace it, but this kid wants MONEY and the full value of his stuff NEW. He wants $1800 for his computer, when it's only worth about $700 now, and he basically wants them to pay what he paid for everything, even though the stuff was a few years old. My main question is, what are his roommates responsible for legally? If this kid took his roommates to court, what would the judge think they are responsible for?

Two years ago, I found out my son had a lead level of 47 from the paint chips in our apartment. I hired a lawyer 2 weeks later but , she just told me today they found out that the landlord has no insurance and that they will not continue the case even though the landlord knew before we moved in about the lead and failed to tell us. What should I do?

really hard on the windows? And then when my neighbors came out, wondering why she was being so loud, she told them i was a liar and she was a paper server. I don't know why she told my neighbor I was a liar, I've only seen her once and that was the day before yesterday, she had a court paper for a person with a name other than mine. I refused the papers because the name on the paper was not mine. How does that make me a liar?

...to death with a pistol, what is the maximum penalty he might face? Assume he has no prior criminal record or warrants and did not endanger my family because when I came out of the house after he shot my dog, he ran away without saying anything. My dog could be replaced for around $500.00. Any other states besides Nebraska? Thank you.

If a retail store offers a price matching guarantee on competitors pricing are they obligated to match the price of the same product at one of their other stores? For example, I need to buy product x. The nearest branch to me has the product for $8 but a branch of the same chain in a different county about 50 miles away has it for $5. Does my local branch have to match the price?

I asked about hostile work environments and received a reply stating if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen. A hostile work environment may include a constructive discharge which means management puts enough pressure on an employee that they quite; an illegal act! This may be considered as a constructive discharge. A work separation can affect unemployment and disability benefits an expense to management. Employers would prefer a person quits which may result in the quieter not getting benefits. Employers will create a bad work environment so the employee leaves. Any comments?

I am being sued by Levtiz furniture for $2000 worth of furniture that I purchased 5 years ago. Isn't there only a 2 year period in which they have to file a suit? Also my name is Lauren and all correspondence for this creditor has always been addressed to Laureen Wood. Could this make a difference or work in my favor somehow?
