Here is the kicker, the person that passed the prescription pills was a M.D. and he was given the meds from someone (not his patient) to someone that also was not, in a non-professional arena. Also he was not the person that prescribe the meds.

Im 20 years old and in December I was involved in an accident with an 18 wheeler. I was the driver but it wasnt my vehicle, it was someone else's. Now the driver of the 18 wheeler is sueing me, the owner of the vehicle, and the name of the person that the insurance is under ( which is the owners dad) The driver of the 18 wheeler is sueing for "mental anguish" This type of deal has never happened to me before and Im really stressed out about it. I dont have any money which is of course is what the driver wants and what do you think is going to happen?

O.K. Heres the deal.
i am overpaying child support to my ex-fiance(for a child in my care 4 days out of 7). because of the amount being taken, i cannot afford to take this through court to get the order changed.
I am fairly certain that the money she is receiving IS NOT being used for the child. she lives with her mother(minimal rent, no bills, etc...) i cannot afford to clothe my child, pay my bills, keep stocked on food, after im done being raped by child support and when clothes are bought, it is her mom or my mom that does the buying. food is provided by her mothers income on my ex's days with the child.
How can i have this investigated or who do i report this concern to??
also does anyone know how i can get the support order changed? i cant afford a lawyer, and i cant afford the filing fees for a court motion... when child support came at me, it cost her nothing... is there a way i can get it done for me at extremely minimal cost or free??
Please help

Jefferson is the first U.S. official ever charged under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, which prohibits corporate bribery.

Oh yeah, this is the person that Speaker Pelosi wanted on the Homeland Security Committee last February.

Surely he's being persecuted unfairly right? I mean, don't you routinely keep $90k in cash in your freezer?

I work as a carpenter for a general contractor. I found out today that one of the sub contracters is ripping off the mexicans that are working for him. He said he would pay them 400. a week to do framing for him. He is working them 55 to 60 hrs a week,and when it comes time to pay them he is only paying them 100. a week. They are not legal and do not speak english,so they are afraid to say anything for fear of being deported. Is there anyone I can call,or talk to on their behalf?

I was ticketed with a minor consumption over 2 years ago. I had originally had the case dropped because the cop didn't show up for court, but now they re-filed the case!! So I go back to court in a few weeks. The story goes, I had about 8 people in my house drinking (some underage, some of legal drinking age) and the neighbors called the cops saying we were "too loud" in the house... So a couple cops stayed by the door of my home and one came thru my backyard and onto my deck with a sliding glass door. I was in the porch which is not visible from that door but there were two girls and 1 guy in my kitchen which the cop could see. He said as soon as they saw him, they tried to move to another room to "hide" but they were entering the porch I was in, which is the exit to the house (by the way, there WAS a cop outside that door as well) So the cop came into my house and gave breathalizers, and well now here we are. I just want to know if he had legal right to enter my home or not

I and my girlfriend recently moved into an apartment together we thought at first looking at there furnished and the neighborhood we were making a good choice.

To make a long story short, basically since we moved in have faced upto 30 crictial to non crictial issues with the apartment and a leasing office who is neglent on returning phone calls and responses(still waiting on a call back over a week now). Most of the crictal issues either has been fixed in less than week or more because the apartment manager promised work asap but have to call her and remind her of what she said. The apartments swimming pool that is open is cracked and falling apart around the edges. My girlfriend and I faced a oven fired 3 days after moving in, had the fridge replace, paint strips and chips on cartets, ac replaced and thermosat to name a few.

I was curious who can I turn to for help in this matter to file a complaint. I have tried managment office and there mangaers but no luck. thanks.

This telemarketer keeps calling my house, no matter how many times I press "2" (do not call again), so I pressed one the last two times to (speak to a representative) and asked to speak with whoever is in charge. Both times, the person who answered said he was in charge. So, I told him to stop calling. The first time, he totally ignored me, and whenever I was quiet, he went ahead with his telemarketing spill, urging me to "lower my interrest rates". When I said I was calling a lawyer, he said "have fun" and hung up. The last time, the guy said, "you need to press 2". I said I did that four times, and he said, "Well, do it again!" and hung up. So, what kind of lawyer do I need to talk to to get these calls to stop!?

I'm receiving Workers Compensation because of an on-the-job-accident, can I legally draw Unemployment Benefits as well? Aren't they two completely separate benefits that have nothing to do with each other? Is there a possibility I could get in trouble in any way?

Extra Info: I've already been receiving Workers Comp checks and benefits for about 6 weeks, but they are going to end within the next 3. Plus, I've already applied for Unemployment and was APPROVED. In approving my case, they must have seen that I'm drawing Workers Comp, right?

I just don't want o take ANY chances on this, as I have no burning desire to see the inside of a jail (or prison). Anyone who has CONCRETE knowledge on this subject, I would appreciate your input.

Basically to make a long story short, he abused my 2 month old daughter, causing hospitalization for 8 days. He broke 19 ribs and beat her with a bottle. Anyways, the plea bargain is anywhere from 7 years in the Department of Corrections to probation. Does anyone have a clue as to what the likelyhood is that he will have to go to prison? I don't think I could handle this emotionally if he walks with probation!

i agree with eating places, but pubs and clubs should be left to owners choice, and display a sign in the window by law, eg; smoking, none smoking. after all this is meant to be a free country,people lost their lives for it,they would be turning in their graves now. exhaust fumes what has happend to cat converters, are they not working now. we are a blot on the landscape, unless usa and china listen whats the point of taxing us. i think we are being robbed by the goverment and we just sit back and allow it, it wouldnt happen in france, the taxing that is.

currently the public school systems are going down the tubes, an the expenses are rising faster from the Energy companys for gas and Electricity. Every state has the same problem state wide for funding the school on yearly budgets. We have the answers to help the situation, here in our country. Do we have to outsource this answer also. The state budgets are being passed with higher numbers each year, so why not find a American way to stop the rising expenses and maybe even lower then and also help the electric company's make more elelctricity. Putting up Wind Generation units accross each Dst. evenly in each state where enough wind is produced can knock the bills down for the school systems, and any extra electricity made can be bought back by the local electric companys at local rates for credit to the schools. Right now the electric companys have to barrow a lot of electricity from other states, at much higher prices, lets put a dent in this problem, for our kids future!
