Yesterday 4 teenages, were pulled from class-rooms. They were told they would go straight to Juvinial Detention. If they withhold any information, by local police. No one got permission from parents for this line of questioning, to be done while at school.
These children didn't even know anything about what the police wanted information on. Isn't there a law to protect our kids? And make it the right of us as parents to know if they are being questioned, and by whom is questioning?

when i was in my teens i had a stalking he used to call my boyfriends and play recorded "i hate you" tapes down the phone, he used to follow me and stand outside my house etc etc...anyway years later which is actually a couple of years ago now he managed to get my mobile number of a friend of a friend and kept texting me saying that he loved me and he was outside my house etc...and he'd seen my mum etc. He even tried to drown himself once because i wasn't interested. So i text him back saying he he contacted me again or came near my house or any of my family i'd go to the police and i didn't hear from him for about 3 years. Well just recently i've had 6 emails from him invites from different sites to join etc. The thing is he doesn't have my email address it's new and i wouldn't have given him it anyway so that menas he must have trwalled through sites trying to find it. ITS SICK. I want to report it...how?

My apartment today had a notice on the door stating that effective April 01 the entire building including apartments themselves would be 100% smoke free. About a month ago i was going through landlord tenant laws for Washington state and seem to recall a law requiring smoke-free buildings to notify the tenant of their no-smoking policy in writing before they move in. Since i have been notified in writing 5 months after having moved in does this new change in policy apply to me? My lease doesn't expire until the 18th of april afterward it will automatically go month to month requiring 20 days notice from me to move out or of eviction. It seems to me that since i have already been renting here there is no legality in enforcing the policy against me. Legaly how does this work?

An application to enforce an ET award was made against my former employer (the organisation not the individual) to their county court. The county court has recently been changed in favour of company's boss, to his county court. I do not understand how could they change the court if the ET claim was made against the organisation and not the individual? Is it connections?

This sux because I love to drive and I can't go a whole year, definetly will go insane! thanks all for your help! Oh and about $3000.00 in impound and ticket/court fees so far... Driving is definitely a priveledge because they own it.

A magistrate wants to allow an ex-husband to have access to two very young children when he has already been charged with kidnapping them (they were rescued back from him) and has spent time in jail for attempted murder of his ex-wife. He has now been granted access to the children's school by the magistrate.

Surely in this day and age we can find a better system of finding out if someone is guilty or not of a crime apart from asking a bunch of 'joe public' for their opinion, especially now they have done away with the 'double jeopardy' rule in the UK ? With all these miscarriages of justice, the whole thing is obviously not working is it ?

It was 9:30ish PM. I was driving in a street. It was yellow and im running approximately 35mph. I crossed the intersection before the red light came. Suddenly there is a cop who caught me saying i ran the red light--which is not. My dad was with me while im driving and he said it was still yellow and probably the cop is just tripping me. Would the court believe us if my only witness is my dad who is a family relative?!

I have a joint account with my fiance. I handle all our transactions online, but they've made a (in my eyes) huge mistake. I've linked 3 other banks to Bank of America (BofA). I frequently filter monies through each bank with BofA being the middleman. However, after one transfer, one of the transactions was denied and that linked bank was suspended with no reason. After I called to find out what happened, they gave me 4 different made up reasons as to why it was suspended, with NONE of the reasons having any validity to them. I asked to speak with the manager's manager and was given a # for some answering machine. I left at least 3 messages there explaining my grief with no responses. I then called the bank again at the regular # and asked for a response from upper management in writing to be sent in the mail - again 3 times - each time they said the response would be given in 5 to 10 business days. each time, no response. The suspension happened in December, but it's now March and they've not contacted me at all about this mishap. I'm frustrated, confused, and just want some council to whether or not i have a case to build here. They're intentionally dodging my requests and I want to sue their asses at this point. Can they get away with this?
CAN ANYONE HELP?

My mom-in-law & dad-in-law put $7,000 down on a SUV for me & my husband and completely financed the SUV in their names.Me and my husband didn't have the credit to finance it in our name.My dad-in-law came into a large settlement & gave money to his 3 sons to go towards cars.My dad-in-law was very ill at the time we finaced the car at the dealership.The car salesmen knew that even though my in-laws were financing the SUV, me and my husband (their son) would have possession of the SUV.My dad-in-law financed the SUV because he wanted his 3 grandkids to have a safe and reliable vehicle.Me and my husband have made ALL the monthly payments on the SUV for 4 years, the insurance has always been in my name and we always paid for the title/renewal sticker. At the time the SUV was financed me and my husband traded in our Dodge intrepid which did have a bit of balance owed on it in addition to the $7,000 I mentioned previously. Both passed away now the bank wants to reposses it, can they?

My grandfathers will is being contested by his wife of 17 years. She is contesting under the terms of a prenup which left her 1/6 of the estate. It also mentions in the prenup that she renounces her right to dissent, adminster, and to contest his will. Also she has claimed an elective share under NC stature. It's too early to tell, but she may already inherit the 1/6.
