Me and her broke up after 2 weeks, I am 17, and she is 15. My ex-girlfriend, her brother and one of his friends was driving down the road and whipped out in front of my mom, brother, and step father and cut them off till they pulled over to the side of the road and both of the males in the car jumped out and headed toward the car my family was in while one of the males reached under the seat for a weapon, when my family sped off. I live in a VERY rural town with only 3000 people in it and we only have 3 cops, so I feel there is not much that I can do about this and I need help. I don't know what to do and I had no idea she would go this far and go after my family, we both agreed on the breakup and it wasn't that bad. I just don't get it and I am so scared they will hurt my family or me. What can I do?

lot and started walking towards. we put out the joint. They both had shaved heads and were dressed in street clothes, and asked us about smoking, saying they could smell it from far away. At first we said we hadn’t been smoking. Then they asked us to stand up, and it’s at that point we asked them if they were cops and they both showed us their badges and said yes. Neither of us had any marijuana on us except for the small remnants of the joint the cops found under my friends shoe. They proceeded to search us and found nothing else. Then one cop looked at my keys on the ground and asked me which car was mine, and asked me if I had any other marijuana in my car, and said theyhad ‘probable cause’ to search my car, even though we weren't near it, the doors were locked, and the screen in the back of my SUV was covered. I said there might be. The cops went to my car and found roughly 6 grams of marijuana in the very back, and citetd me for posession of less than an ounce. Illegal search?

MY DEAREST ONE ,
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance
department
of The African Development . I saw your contacts in INTERNET
SEARCH,After
much consideration i decided to write you since I cannot be able to see
you
face to face at first. I will like you to take your time to read this
mail
carefully. I did not mean to embarrasse you with my business proposal
but I
seriously need your assistance. Please this is a confidential matter
and it
requires urgency.

In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of U.S$12.5m dollars
(Twelve
million five hundred thousand USD) in an account that belongs to one of
our
foreign customer who died along with his entire family into the World
Trade
Center on September 11,sept 2001 (AMERICA ATTACK).

Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his
next of
kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless
some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as
indicated in our banking guidlines and laws, but unfortunately we
learnt
that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him
at
11,sept 2001 (AMERICA ATTACK). leaving nobody behind for the claim.
The
owner of this account is Mr JOSEPH. F.

GRILLO, foreigner and he is the Manager Of petrol chemical service, a
chemical engineer by Profession. He died in world trade center as a
victim
of the September 11,2001 Incident that befall the United State of
America ,
the bank has made series of efforts to contact any of the relatives to
claim
this money but without success, you can confirm through this
website:http://www.september11victims.com/september11Victims/VictimInfo.asp?ID=1260
I now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the
money to
you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety
andsubsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money
to go
into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.The banking law and guidine
here
stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Seven years, the
money will be tranfered into the bank treasurey as unclaimed bill I
therefore agree that 40%of this money will be for you as foreigner
partner,
in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10% will be set aside
for
expenses incured during the business and 50% would be for me.

There after I will visit your country for disbursement according to the
percentages indicated. Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of
this
fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relation
or
next of kin to the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank
account
number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective
communication and location where in the money will be remitted.

I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is
hitch-free
and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required
arrangements have been made for the transfer. You should contact me
immediately as soon as you recieve this letter. Trusting to hear from
you
immediately.

Yours faithfully,
MR OUMAROU SENI.

We recently terminated an employee 8 months into a one year contract who was also contracted the year before. According to the contract, we can terminate without cause by giving two weeks severence, which we did to avoid the hassle of just cause. He is now threatening legal action saying he is owed payment for the remaining four months.

Where it gets tricky and the bulk of his case is that during his first contract he was paid out his entire salary over the first 8 months as by then he had commissions built up to sustain himself over the summer. This pay schedule was kept for the first few weeks of his new contract before we realized the inherent flaw that he could quit and leave with four months free pay. While the remaining four months on his contract are mostly down time with little to do, he is still expected to be in the office. In truth, due to the overages at the start of the year he has already received an extra $800 over what he worked.

Does he have a case?

So the situation with my job was this girl whom hated me accussed me of assaulting her in the break room! There were no witnessses or evidence that supported her statement she gave to the police! She was lieing to get me fired and our boss supported her bc I had a heated conversation with the boss earlier that day about the girl who was accusing me of assaulting her. Anyway I have contacts for all of my clients and I found out she told one of my clients I pushed the girl and that is why I was fired!
I was wondering from a legal stand point is she aloud to say anything bias just as that story to clients of mine or future clients? The cops said my case is going to get dismissed bc of there's no evidence or witnesses!

and you think it's wrong to pay someone to use a gun and take money from someone. Then why do you think it is OK to use the Government to take money from the rich (higher taxes) and give it to you? (The non-rich)

If you want to tax the rich more than you are taxed, and you want government medicine, welfare, wic, and other social programs that are paid with tax money, then you are basically using the Government to take money from someone and give it to you.

Why is it ok to steal from the rich as long as you use the government to do the stealing?

Just for the record I only make 20,000 a year, and I do not take government assistance.

To make a long story short, we have been told by our 6 yo DD, that the 12 yo DD of my best friend of 30 yrs, has been doing inappropriate things with her when in her room alone. The other girl denies everything. Both girls are sticking to their stories. We are considering taking our DD to a counselor to deal with this issue, as well as to determine the truthfulness. (yes, we believe her, but this is going to destroy two families) So, my Q is that, if a counselor determines her story to be the truth, are they legally obligated to report this to the authorities. We DO NOT want to press any charges as long as my friend gets her DD some help. She is a single Mom, no other family, and its going to be hard enough on her that we are now no longer part of her life). Our DD seems to be handling everything good so far, but we do, maybe, want to also seek outside help. Help on my Q is appreciated, not looking for judgement. T/Y in advance.

My b/f has been to court many times reagrding his 5 year old son. At first, he was going to court because the mother would not let him see his son, and now he is going back because of unpaid child support (about $200, btw). But there have been many visits in between and he has always showed up alone while she always has a lawyer. In the future, I think it might be a good idea for him to show up with representation. However, we can not afford a lawyer. The child's mother has yet again denied him his visitation for reasons that I understand she is not able to deny visitation to him for. When he goes to family court again, how can we find him representation? What do we look up in the phone book? We just need to be pointed in the right direction, because we have no idea where to find a free lawyer if its even possible. Please help.
