I am an international student living in a campus dorm in the USA. I installed a spray device in the shared bathroom 4 months ago and left for a 20-day winter break. Upon returning, I found repairs were needed due to water leakage, which the university's insurance company claims was caused by my device. They are seeking $40,000 in repairs and hold me responsible. As a non-citizen student with no insurance, no work authorization, and financial aid for education, I need to know my legal position and potential consequences. Can they sue me without a social security number, and what can they do if I have no assets or money to cover the amount? Will this affect my future visa petitions or my current status at the school?

I left my gun in a hotel in Georgia. The hotel called the police, who gave me a case number and asked if I intended to retrieve it. I am concerned that I might be walking into a trap or legal trouble. I am a TN resident and do not have a GA weapons license. The gun was in a holster with ammunition in the magazine but not in the chamber. What should I do?

A judge previously ruled on an objection in my case, but at a recent status conference, the opposing party brought up the same objection without any new circumstances, and I was not given a chance to respond. The same judge then made a new ruling based on this objection. What can I do to address this situation?

My son, age 24, sent explicit photos to a girl he believed to be 18, but her father now claims she is 16 and has extorted money from my son. If we go to the police, could my son end up with a criminal record, and is it possible to get the money back?

Is it possible to sue a high school in Crown Point, Indiana, for my daughter being kept off the cheer team despite her skills and awards, due to my involvement in the middle school cheer team's competition?

I was recently contacted by my cousin who informed me that through Ancestors.com, she was called by a man who claimed to be my son and that she was his second cousin, with their DNA matching. I would like to know if I can sue Ancestors.com for providing this information without my permission or a blood test, and if I can put a restraining order on this person to prevent them from contacting my relatives and children. I am located in Pennsylvania.
