IT NEEDS TO STOP!

Can I request and receive a court transcript from a court case from over 50 years ago? A relative was killed by a drunk driver in New Mexico and I would like to read why the driver was never charged. The trial was held in Federal Court in Santa Fe as my relative was in the USAF (Clovis AFB) but thats all I know. Where would I start?

been with my boyfriend on and off for about 2 years now. recently we got into a pretty big fight b/c i have issues with depression and severe pms that i see a counselor for and take meds as well. a day after the fight i learned that his grandpa died and he was flying home for the funeral. called him the nite before he left to say i was sorry for his loss and if there was anything i could do-he said he was fine, he would call me in a couple of days and that he loved me.we didnt talk that week (i called to ask a computer question which i realize now was super insensitive-he never answered or called back). i emailed him 7 days later to see if he made it home ok,to say i was sorry and ask him if he could help me change a headlight in my car. he emailed back saying he was home safe and what day did i want to fix the car-he signed it saying he loved me.
i emailed back saying friday was ok w/me since it was our normal day to spend together w/out my 3 kids.

more below-sorry!!

Someone is sueing my family for reasons that will not be named now they are going after my mother, father, and sister. My father and I have the same name cept I'm jr and that's on my birth records. Now I'm wondering what are the odds they are meaning to also sue me but due to my father and I having the same name papers were only sent for him. The papers sent mention my sister and my father as daughter and husband. There is nothing mentioning son. I am confused as to wether or not they are going after me or not and it's a mistake that they are not. I don't want to ask questions. I am not guilty so either way it does not matter but I dont want to deal with the court and all that bull crap. It's been about a week and a half or two weeks maybe more since papers have been served. What do you think? do you think they will realise their mistake and some after me or do you think I don't have to worry.

Isn't double jeapordy ..... I probably spelt that wrong if I did sorry but you get the idea. But isn't that when your tried for the same thing twice. Now if someone brings a civil lawsuit against you and then the state goes after you for just what the other people went for you isn't that double jeapordy and illegal?

A friend of mine opened a savings account for his newborn 10 years ago. He moved and forgot about it. He recently remembered and when he went back to collect his $$ the bank told him that after a certain period of inactivity the state assumes the person has died and takes the money. Can this actually happen, and if so is there anything he can do to get his money back?

Please, no answers from people offering prepaid legal plans. I am not interested in the money making opportunities, I am interested in the opinions of consumers that have actually used the service.

I got this call at work that someone turned my name in to be fake arrested on a certain day and taken to a hotel where I have to raise $5,000 "bail" for a certain charity, I explained to the person that I could not get off work for this, they said I could use my lunch hour (I dont get a lunch "hour") I told them that I could not raise that kind of money because I dont know many people that have that kind of money to donate, they said I could at least get $650 to send one disabled child to camp. Isnt this kind of thing for professionals who know a lot of people who can donate. I offered to give a donation instead, but they didnt want that. I asked who turned my name in and they said that they were under "the witness protection program". I said that the owner of the business may be interested in doing this and asked for their number but she would not give me the number,saying she was sooooo busy I probably woudnt be able to reach her on the phone. She will call back tomorrow?

Should the government make laws that give them the most ethical stance? (i.e. outlawing abortion) Or should they make laws that actually save the most lives? (i.e. sex education, improved foster care, morning after pill/condom availability.)

Ok, basically I threatened someone over the phone that I knew where they lived, and I would do all kinds of bad stuff to them. Needless to say, I really lost my cool, and regretted it instantly after I calmed down. The guy called me back, and said he was taking a warrant out for my arrest, claimed to have it recorded, and claimed to have witnesses. This made me regret losing my cool even more. The state I live in its legal for a phone call to be tape recorded as long as one party has consented. Can I be arrested for this? I'm not sure if he has a recording, tbh. I doubt that part, but I certainly did say things that only a pyscho would say.
