My husband was terminated after being attacked by a patient in the parking lot. He is now medically disabled and unable to work due to his bipolar disorder and other health issues. Can he file for unemployment, and is there a time limit to do so? Additionally, since neither his primary care physician nor his psychiatrist will release him for work, can he still qualify for unemployment benefits?

I was charged with simple assault 17 years ago, which was dismissed. It hasn't shown up on several background checks, including one for a traffic ticket. I am now taking the RN boards and need to know if this dismissed charge will show up on my background check for the RN exam, especially since it involves live scan fingerprinting.

I have 6 felony charges against me in Pennsylvania. I was wondering if it was possible for them to be dropped if I could make a deal to move out of state.

I'm a bail assistant in Wyoming and was barred from performing my duties at the jail due to a social media post questioning a DUI program. The judges in my town cited my post as the reason. Is it legal for judges to prevent me from working in my field based on my First Amendment rights, especially since I work for a private bail bond insurance company and not directly for the judges or the court?
