Okay Guys help! I was doing great on my first sixty days of my probation period on my Job. Then boom, I get jury duty. And whats worse I got Grand Jury duty which was 30 days.

Needless to say my boss was pissed, they didn't pay me (which they can do) and now they extended my probation period which means I won't get health insurance for another 30 days or so. Can they do this? And if so, why the hell does the government put us through this misery with no laws to help us?

Our mother passed away in Dec 2006 and Bank of America sent the paperwork for her IRA out to our father. AS POA for our father, she marked it to be rolled into our father's IRA and to re-assign the beneficaries of his IRA to myself and my sister. This was completed on Mar 21, 2007. Our father passed away on Mar 30, 2007. Bank of America has never processed our mother's paperwork so now they want to pay everything out to our father's estate instead of to us. They say that they don't accept POA's. Is this legal? Is there a State or Federal committee/department that can look into the mishandling of the funds by the bank. I don't feel that my sister and I should be punished because the bank can not perform they responsibilities in a timely manner. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

I went to a very seemingly nice jewelry store, and applied for a position there. The lady told me after I handed the application in that we are all Armenians here and That she was Hispanic. Do you want to work with us? What nationality are you? And then she looked down on the ground and said, well, you could go to the store which is a 45 minute drive from here.

Is this discrimination, and could there be enough for a lawsuit.

Scenario:
You signed a contract with your (new) Company with a "Non-Compete" clause for 1 year effective after your last day of work with them.

Will the Philippine (Supreme) Court honour it if you are undergraduate and thus, you are very limited in the jobs you can apply to?

What are the factors before the (Supreme) Court recognize a Non-Compete clause as valid or invalid?

I often hear my downstairs neighbor yelling obscenities at her children. One can't be more than 3 years old and the other is on life support. I have no idea if she is physically hurting her children and no evidence. Is this still considered abuse/neglect? Is there anything I can do? Should I do something at all?

Ok heres the deal . I have a 05 Yukon that was left to me after my Dad passed away. I been trying the last 7 weeks now to get this vehicles registration done. They won’t let me get the tags for the Yukon because it under my dads name. I have a copy of my dads will and everything where is states the vehicle was left to me. Because I was not the power of attorney of my dads estate, there saying I have to have the power of attorney sign a piece of paper saying this vehicle indeed was left to me by my father . And my aunt (the power of attorney) wont sign this page because of a piece of land that was left to me by my father that she wanted. I’m doing everything I can to try to get the vehicles registration done. I have had a lawyer on this for some time now and hes just not getting anywhere. I am just curious to see if anyone else has dealt with a situation like this? I cant switch lawyers, and I cant get rid of the land, so those options are out!
