If you were shown on national television in a negative light that was later proven to be false, how much do you think your reputation in the community is worth in dollars? Could you even put a dollar amount on it?

Look, I can understand a lawsuit against the airport security firm, and the airports themselves, but why sue(I'm assuming Boeing or Airbus) the plane's manufacturer?? Did they ever release a statement saying their airplanes were hi-jack proof?? This seems to me like the attorney's involved are suing any possible firm's involvment in the event to try to maximize their pay-out...Is anyone else irritated by this??

Dick Cheney was supposed to go to court, but said that he didn't have to and is overriding the court order with executive power. Is this currupt? Should he have the right or should he have to do it like the rest of the American population?

With due respect to Constitution, Law and Judiciary , I submit this ....

Gujarat is the place where Prohibition is osberved. This is for respect to Gadhiji -Father of Nation... Gandhiji was Father of Nation and not only Gujarat.. If prohibition is respect to Gandhiji will it not be disrespect to Gandhiji where prohibition is not a rule... Was Gandhiji Father of only Gujarat and not whole Inidia...or tell Gandhiji Father of Gujarat and not Nation...

will any Gandhian see this misfortune and comeout for implementing the Prohibition to whole nation or abolish the prohibition in Gujarat..

Gujarat govt is allowing permits on medical grounds , ethnic grounds , permit to SEZ..
but not ready to remove prohibition.

the revenue loss is tremendous and .. insult to Gandhiji is enormous .. Central Govt too is silent. Spurious liquor claims lives and health of poor, Not advocating that every Gujarati should drink and ruine finance,health and family..

All that has to be said about why we have to pay taxes has been said. Question is though, Since it is voluntary to pay taxes why are we forced to pay them, if not we can go to jail?
Why can't the government print more money to pay what needs to be paid. Your response please. Thank you.

Here is my problem, My wifes grandparents are 85 and 91yrs old. They own a 1800 sq. ft. 2 story home that they have lived in for the past 17 years. Their property taxes are 1100 dollars under the current SOH and homestead plan. Without the exemptions the taxes would be 6700 dollars based on a market value of $284,000 per the county website. The grandmother has not been upstairs in over 5 years due to physical reasons and of course that is where the bedrooms and bathtubs are. So they have their beds downstairs in the dining room and she baths herself with a washcloth and a bucket. My wife and I live in a 1 story 1000 sq. ft. home with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths which was fine for us until we had our first daughter 3 years ago and then twins girls last year. Our taxes are 985 dollars a year under the current SOH and homestead plan, we have lived here for 9 years. Without the exemptions the taxes would be 3300 dollars. The grandparents have offered to swap houses with us which would help all of us out. We need more room with the children and they need for grandma to shower for obvious health reasons. They intend to leave the house to my wife after they pass anyway so they figure why not do the switch now. They dont want to buy my house but are willing to rent it to cover our current mortgage payments. How, if any, is there a way to make the move without the property taxes jumping to 10,000 dollars a year between the two properties. The $2100 in property taxes we pay now between the grandparents and ourselves we can handle but jumping to 10 grand seems absurd since neither of us are anywhere close to being rich. They are obviously retired and living on a small fixed income and we are tapioca due to the cost of 3 kids and only 1 income producer as my wife stays home with the kids. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I say we make the switch without saying anything to anyone but grandpa doesnt want grandma to get thrown in the pokie in the county finds out. Thanks for your time

I mean, the government will let you go to war, murder people, and probably die. But they won't let you do something that doesn't harm anyone and is fun?

This person never lived at my address and I haven't heard from him since he dumped me, but I receive notices from the municipal courts informing him of court dates.I called and told them that he does not live here and ask if they would fix that, but for some reason they couldn't. The first charge was trespassing and this latest one has to to with a bicycle rule. Can I file charges so that he will stop using my address?

I am 19 years old and my dad has been out of the picture for a while...I only seen him a few times until after I turned 18 and found him myself...anyways...I was told that I can take him to court and get child support since he only paid a few times before I turned 18. I was told that I could collect child support on myself for before I turned 18. How would I do this? I know I have to go to court and all, but where do I start? Does anyone know of a website that could give me more info or tell me where to go. Also, would they just take the lawyer fee and everything out of what I would get? It was through the state, so there is really no "my/my moms word against his"...they have proof of what he paid (or didnt pay..) Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

My car was hit in my apartment parking lot and left a huge dent and paint from the other car on the bumper, unfortunately the other driver didn't leave a note. From the way my car was parked and where the dent is, there's really only one car that could have hit mine. I've gone to the building management to try to get the name of the person who rents the spot next to mine, with no luck. This person frequently parks across the divider line into my spot (so I'm pretty sure his car hit mine ... even the paint matches) I've also filed a police report (but they really won't do anything). Is there any other way I can get this guy's name? He hasn't parked in his spot during normal hours all week (I try to go out there with my camera a few times a day to see if he's also got bumper damage from hitting me). Thanks for your help.

I entered Emergency room 3 times each 2 day's apart. Was released all three times with advice to take Tylenol advil. To make a long story short, I ended up in another hospital under the advice of friends & family. Was in for 2 weeks for heart surgery. I was in a similar situation 11 years ago. Decided not to do anything. Enough is enough
Any thoughts?

I want to go by a different name, but I do not want to have to go through all of the legal stuff. In the state of West Virginia, I have to go to court and file a petitioner. I do not know if I can just do the basic thing where you can just tell people to call you by the new name. I really just want to do the call me by my new name thing. I want to be called Bianca instead of Annetta.
