I am an independent contractor at a chiropractic clinic. I was recently deposed by the defendant in one of my patient's personal injury cases. The opposing counsel paid for my time and testimony. The owner of the clinic gave them her information (W9) for the payment and had them make the check payable to her, and now she will not pay me the check amount and is trying to give me a small percentage of it. Shouldn't I have been paid directly?

I am the sole owner of an LLC company that is being sued. I am shutting down the company and preparing to file personal bankruptcy. I have requested a continuance for the upcoming litigation due to my intent to file bankruptcy, but it is doubtful I will get it. Do I need to appear in court if I have no intention of fighting the lawsuit, especially since the case was originally against me and my company but they dropped me personally after deposition? Additionally, one of the counts is fraudulent misrepresentation, and I am unsure if I have been officially dismissed from the suit. How can I confirm my personal dismissal from the case?

I received a cease and desist letter from Arbonne International via Vorys. I am based in Washington and Oregon, and I have addresses in both states. I received this letter back in November and again recently after relisting my products on eBay under a new name. I am trying to sell off my old stock of Arbonne products that I bought when I was a consultant, but I am no longer affiliated with the company. I am concerned about potential legal ramifications and want to know if there is a statement I can make on my eBay page to protect myself. Additionally, I want to understand if Arbonne is likely to sue me for selling these discontinued products, especially since many others are doing the same.
