Law & Ethics - February 2007

I have a $3000 court judgement against a couple. I have recorded the judgment in their county of residence, but I will only collect if they go to buy/sell their home or any property in that county, correct? They actively sell property on Ebay under a storefront (dba but not an LLC, PC, etc). Is there a way to garnish these wages if my judgment is against them as individuals and not as their bank account lists them under the dba?

Basically I sold a laptop, and with the funds bought another all through Paypal.

Anyway the guy I bought mine of sent it special delivery, I got it the next day, excellent service so far. Anyway I had mine all wrapped up ready to post the next weekend, The morning I was abought to post I checked to get the buyer address through my paypal account and was shocked to see it limited. I got an email from Paypal saying something along the lines of being high risk I had to verify a few things, which Include invoices from where I originally bought my items, which I simply don't have, I phoned paypal and they said I need all this documentation to get the limitation lifted.

In the mean time the money I paid to get my laptop was put on hold, and off course the seller wasn't happy, He was huffing and puffing about calling the Police on me and taking me to court etc, So I asked him if I pay you by cheque will you tell paypal this so they can release the funds, "Oh yes no problem" he said, so I sent of the cheque to him Special delivery, he got it the next day.

The guy I sold my laptop to I told him I could not complete the transaction, and I can't as theres no way of getting the limitation lifed so he filed a complaint against me and assures me if he doesn't get his money back it'll be court for me.

When the guy I paid by cheque received it he went back on his word, he is avoiding me so I have no way of getting my money back, I sent paypal an email with the tracking number which proves I paid him via cheque, there is even his signature, but paypal will not release the funds to me unless this guy gives them the go ahead, and thus I can not refund the original sender and am going to end up in court, and if I do go to court I'm damn sure I'm taking someone else with me that caused this mess.

So do I start a court action against Paypal or the seller?

we have an open air office area and I've overheard a woman here make comments about an ethnic group I'm apart of, these comments were more then derogatory, and she is someone in charge of resumes and I feel like this may have possibly prompted her to disregard some applicants...I've already emailed our HR dept. to talk about it, is there something else I should be doing with the city and or state?

I have a car that up until about 4 months ago was up todate in payments but I then lost my job and could not make any payments at all so now I am about 4 payments behind.

The finance aompany has tried to get it from me but I have been hiding it because I do still want the car and I paln on making the full past due payments in the next month. So here is the question. If they can't get the car do they still consider it a reposession and what happens when I start to make payments again?

my friend signed a document from city hall as Proof of accomadation but he misspelled my last name by 1 letter. I corrected it to my real name. Is it wrong to correct your last name on a document signed by someone else?

Does this count as a forging of a document. I know he signed it already but it was still a mistake.

my car aquaplaned off the road after hitting a large pool of water on the inside lane of a dual carriage way.There was no advanced warning of the standing water on the road.This may have been caused by poor maintenace of the surface water system allowing the surface water to build up on the highway. Should highways have put out advanced warning signs? Do highways have a responsability to keep the roads clear of standing water?

Have you ever read your Constitution? If not, how will you ever know what your rights are?

That's a question my father posed to me yesterday. So i began to think, the government can screw most Americans over illegally, simply because we dont know what our rights are. Believe it or not, the Constitution was written to protect American citizens from the government, and to put limits on what the Government can do. Lately it seems government has forgotten it's place in society, and I think it is our job to remind them.

So let us all agree, for our own good, to read the Constitution and maybe even tell someone you know to do the same.

All in favor by saying "I"

much love

G

my soon to be ex, filed a protective order on me, falsely, about a month ago. He told me he was sorry and did it out of anger and that it whould not go through because he had to call them to put it through. Truns out, it did go through, i was not served because he gave them no adress to me, even though I live with him. now he refuses to go and do what is right since he based it on false information, one big lie. I have no clue what he said I did to him and am going this afternoon to get the actualy paper work so i can find out. Does this go on my record and will it revoke my hand gun liscense. Also, can I have charges or sue him, if I have to fight this in court. It will be easy to fight, so im not concerned with that. But do I even have to fight it??? Or is there an easier way. Thank you so much.

He is using bt recording to demand more money from me for jobs he has so-called done on my behaf. His exact quote is as follows;
"I read my mail every day, and word for word. Also i record and save telephone conversations so that i can refresh on the information i am told. These conversations i hold with yourself on the telephone are then stored on my phone, so that i can retain the information.
If you are implying that i am lying to you about what you say to me then feel free to come and listen to all the conversations. Either that or i can send them to you"

I don't know if any of you watch the show To Catch A Predator on Dateline, but if you do I have a question. Every single guy they catch always pleads innocent. Why? They were caught on numerous cameras red handed as well as chat logs. I don't understand why or how they can plead innocent.
