I did something horrible at a gas station in Austin, Texas. I had severe stomach issues and, after being told the bathroom was out of order, I used an office instead, causing a mess. I left without cleaning up. Should I go back to the gas station and apologize and offer to pay for everything? How much legal trouble will I be in for running?

I received a summons to appear at the Fulton County Courthouse in Lewistown, Illinois on May 24th at 9:00 a.m. due to a debt with Central Illinois Loan Company. I live in Morgan County, Jacksonville, Illinois, and have no transportation. I want to know if offering to pay $160 a month to the loan company could remove the summons before the 24th, and how to request a continuance if needed.

Is it illegal to take a screenshot of someone’s nudes when the person said not to, and can I take legal action against the person who did this, especially if they live in a different state?

I am the plaintiff in a civil court case in Solano County, California, with three defendants. I requested and was granted default on all three defendants in April 2022, but later learned that form CIV-050 must be served on each defendant before default can be requested. I have now served the CIV-050 on all three defendants and am ready to ask for a default judgment. However, my request for default and judgment was returned because 'default has already been entered.' Should I proceed with requesting a default judgment without further concern about the technically incorrect default entered last April, or what steps do I need to take to correct the incorrect default so that I can request a default judgment?
