I work at a hardware store and hurt my back lifting a bag of concrete. It was a slipped disk. The doctor gave me a note that says I can go back but not lift anything but I cant really afford the medical bill I just got and I feel they should be responsible for that and my time lost.

I work for a dealership that is covered under FMLA. It is a corporate business and they have more than 50 employees. I am pregnant and decided to take FMLA so I can return to work, I had written down for HR that my last day would be May 7th but the started my 1 week vacation on the 7th thru the 11th. I am on leave now and decided to check the positions at my job online, it seems they posted my job title without my knowledge. Is this something they can do? And if they are shouldn't they tell me so I know I won't have my job back. I m worried that I might not have a position when I return which is why I went on FMLA, but now I feel like it doesn't really help.

A friend of mine used to work for a Secretarial type company that had mail boxes. She said there was a woman that moved away to some foreign country, and she her mail box was suspended due to non payment and the mail was being held. My friend thinking that the woman wouldn't return to collect her mail, took a check that was within the woman's mail, and signed the woman's name on the back of the check, and then my friend deposited the check into her bank account. Approximatly 2 years later my friend got a phone call from the bank telling her that she needs to pay back this check because it was illegally deposited, and the woman who the money rightfully belongs to would like her money back. So my friend made an agreement to pay back the money, which she did. Then, a few months after that, the Justice Department called her and told her that they needed to speak with her about the check. She went in and admited on tape to doing what she had done.

Even though the authors had admitted, and in court, they had read the book whose author alleged was plagiarised, the power of the purse won out and Sony etc. were vindicated of the alleged offense.

Sad that.

Now what does this mean and does it give the corporate writers right of way to plagiarise freely?

Specifically, at what point do you have to wait more than just the one year before you get an increase? In other words: Say you are a grade 13 step one. In one year you go to step two, one year later step three, etc... BUT...at one point (either step 4 or step 5) you have to wait 2 or 3 years and I'm not sure which step it is. Thanks to whoever can help me.

My ex owes almost $9000 in child support and has made no payment of any amount since 12/06. Child support enforcement has tried to garnish his check so he quit his job. They suspended his license but he has no car anyway. They can't seize his bank accounts because he has none. The DA said they only file felony charges on deadbeats every 2 years, so it will be 2008 before that happens. I am a full time college student with a part time job so I obviously don't have the $1400 it will cost me to take him back to court. I told him 2 weeks ago he would not be getting visitation with them until he pays at least one month's payment and gets acceptable conditions for them at his friend's house where he is living (they have no beds, clothes, toothbrushes, etc. over there). The last time they were there, he didn't pick up their suitcase and kept them in the same clothes for 3 days. I don't want to get in trouble, but I am frustrated and don't know what else to do. Any ideas?

I work for a professional company. My employee was born in the USA and when she was hired she stated "Fluent in English" on her resume. However, the way she speaks is not understandable either to me or the customers. For instance, "who be the client?" instead of "who is the client?"; "He do" instead of "he does," "bothum" instead of "both of them" and so on and on... So technically she lied on her resume because that is not fluent English. So can I fire her or will I get in trouble?

why cant you sell your whole body, that way at least you can enjoy the money made from it instead of donating it. Not only does it help medical but echonomicle as well. Lets say I sell my body and I don't die for 20 more years, the school I sellit to should be listed in a body data base and when I die they can take it. That way can use the money and they can use the body latter.

I hired a lawyer here in Texas to take care of 3 tickets I had in a different city. He was aware the tickets were warrants at the time I hired him. He told me to pay him 300 dollars and that he wouldn't charge me a bond fee for the tickets because he came recommended to me through a family friend. I paid him 300 and he took care of 1 ticket which I still had to pay a 345 fine for. Another ticket was dismissed because it was for Failure to Maintain Financial Responsibility (No Insurance), but at the time I DID have insurance so it was eventually dismissed once I faxed the court a copy of my insurance. The 3rd ticket I have is a warrant and I had a court date after my attorney posted a surety bond, the court date was set for March 18th. WELL, my lawyer didn't show up and didn't call or let me know that he wasn't going to be there. It is now May 14th and no calls from my lawyer have been returned. I have a warrant and have been denied renewal of my license. What can I do?

All hear is "this is illegal" and "that is illegal". They war in Iraq is illegal, the occupation of Gaza and the Golan Heights by the Isrealis is illegal, and everything is illegal. I'm not sure what makes any of these things illegal. I do not think the UN makes things legal/illegal. Power gives Isreal the right to hold that land. Whine and ***** about legality as much as you want, Isreal has the larger guns and the United States has the larger guns. There is no such thing as legal/illegal in international relations.

I think Paris Hilton should be able to pay someone to serve her 45 days in prision. There may be a poor person who is desperate for money to feed their family. What do you think?

In the old days they had a 'whipping boy'. This was a poor boy, who was whipped when his rich buddy got in trouble (someone had to be punished, so the parents would pay to exact the punishment on the poor boy instead whenever the rich boy got in trouble).

Abby dear, I believe that Americans should come first. I believe in the right to bear arms and I believe in harst and swift punishment for those who intentionally do harm to others. I believe people should be able to walk down any street at any time without fear. I believe people should be able to worship as they wish as long as it does not negatively effect the rights of others. I believe in the seperation of church and state. I believe lobbying as it's done on Capitol Hill should be a crime punishable by law. I believe prison terms for any politician who commits a crime against the taxpayers of this country should receive a jail sentence that is double the norm and it should be served not in a country club prison but in the same prisons the grneral population gets sent to. I also believe that I am one of the very few if any who share my views. Mercy should be reserved to those who show it others.

India is a member of The Hague convention and Ministry of External Affairs can legalise a document using an apostille stamp. MoEA has attested my birth certificate, but did not put the apostille stamp. The reason they gave is they have stopped for some time and it will reopen maybe in 1.5 months. How and why do they stop? They are part of international treaty! All the development and bureaucracy is the same in India!
