I am a mental health patient at a job in Illinois where my privacy was violated by a coworker who overheard a private conversation with my medical provider and reported false allegations to management. Management has treated me unfairly, and I feel my rights are being violated. What should I do?

Can someone explain discovery to me? In a civil matter

I am a travel nurse working in California. I was verbally told I would get time and a half for the last four hours of my 12-hour shift, per CA state law. However, I received only straight time on my first check. My company informed me that the hospital has an alternate work week, so I don't get overtime until after 40 hours in the week. I have been at the same hospital for over a year and have not signed any alternate work week agreements. All other travelers here get the time and a half for the last four hours. Do I have a case, and have they also not been paying me double time for anything over 12 hours in a shift?

A year and a half ago, I blew the whistle on a job, and the OSHA employee I spoke with said I would receive a report of the findings, but I never did. I tried reaching out to him, but he ignores me. The job was shut down, and peers were interviewed, but I was not. I believe I deserve the report to set the record straight. The job was 'at will' and full-time, located in Media, Delaware County, PA. I am still dealing with the issues that led me to blow the whistle, and due to trusting the OSHA employee, I faced negative employment consequences, including being laid off and unable to find a new job since. Why can't the OSHA employee send me the report, and could a separate lawsuit from another person prevent OSHA from sending me the report?

Today I received a letter from CBP for the seizure of KETAMINE (less than 2 grams) valued at $12.11, which was purchased on the deep web. I've never been in trouble. Would it be best to 'abandon' and not respond to the letter?

I'm 77 years old and my only income is $944 a month from Social Security. I've been found guilty of Breach of Contract to a credit card company and ordered to pay a certain amount and complete a Fact Information sheet. The sheet asks for the names and addresses of my ex-husband and children. I live alone and receive no other support than my social security. I own no property or savings. What can happen if I don't pay the amount ordered, and am I legally responsible to give the names and addresses of my children and ex-husband?
