I am one of two people on a lease that was broken, and I have been served with a civil summons for $11,000 (originally $8,000 with added interest). The landlord is only suing me and not the other tenant. Is this legal, and what are my options for dealing with this situation?

Mondo Tunes LLC owes me $8421, which was supposed to be paid on Oct 14, 2017, but they never paid. I am in Vancouver, British Columbia, but Mondo Tunes is located in California. I am trying to go to Small Claim Court in Newport, CA. Can I go to court directly or do I have to go to a mediator first? Additionally, if the company is doing business under at least 5 names, do I need to fill in the form SC-100 for all of these names or just one of them?

I purchased products from Joann's Online for a total of $154.34, but they shipped the items in two separate shipments and charged me an additional $94.34 for the second shipment, which was already included in the initial charge. Both charges are pending, and my funds are being held, causing potential overdraft issues. I contacted Joann's, but they say it's their policy to charge and then recharge once shipping, which was not disclosed before my order. How can I resolve this issue and prevent future occurrences?

During a routine traffic stop, I was subjected to aggressive police behavior, including being pulled out of my car without consent and searched with a canine unit. The officers seized my money and drugs, and now they are pressuring me to cooperate or face charges. I am on parole but not for drug-related offenses. What are my legal options and how should I proceed?

I started a new job as the director of a preschool at a church making a salary of $56,000 per year. I was promised 37.5 hours per week, but I am now working 50-60 hours a week without additional pay or sick days. The church leadership says I cannot take a day off for 6 months. Is there a law to protect me so that I can work a normal amount of hours per week?

I am seeking advice on a mutual annulment in Colorado. We have already filled out the required paperwork and had it notarized. We are concerned about the annulment being approved due to time constraints or invalid reasons. What are the specific legal grounds for annulment in Colorado, and if our reasons align with these grounds, what is the likelihood of the annulment being processed and approved?
