I am currently the defendant in a breach of contract case in the Alexandria VA circuit court. The plaintiff is alleging anticipatory breach, claiming I breached the contract by stating my intention to litigate his fees. I have never missed a payment and did not intend to stop paying until reviewed by an authoritative body. The amount in dispute is $98,000. I recently learned the plaintiff is a resident of the District of Columbia, while I am a resident of Virginia. Can I move this case to Federal court under the principal of diversity jurisdiction, how would I do that, and is there any benefit in moving this case to a federal court?

In 2000, a surgeon implanted a pain management pump, and I have been his patient until March 2011. After being incarcerated for 12 months and released, I have been trying to get him to see me for a refill and pump replacement. Initially, his office said he was no longer seeing workman's comp cases, but I informed them I had never been a workman's comp case. They then said he refuses to see me at all. What should I do, as I have contacted the hospital administrator and they haven't returned my calls?
