I bought a used car from a private party, and the engine failed due to burning all of its oil reserve within the first 250 miles that I drove it. The engine now needs replacement, which costs more than the value of the initial sale. The service receipts versus mileage indicate that the last mechanic failed to fill the engine with oil at the last service, despite charging for it. When I confronted the mechanic, they offered to cover the labor on the engine replacement but not the parts. I believe they should cover everything. What are my next steps?

A European nonprofit religious entity has asked me to guide them in setting up a US subsidiary. Can this be done, and what steps are involved? Specifically, should the UK entity establish a standalone 501(c)(3) in the US, or could it spawn a related entity? Additionally, how would the ties be established with the UK entity, and what is the approximate cost to have a lawyer set up a basic 501(c)(3) in Maryland?

In a legal case, can I file a motion to compel production of documents for both the first and second notices to produce as one motion, and if the opposing party fails to produce certain documents, can I subsequently file a motion to exclude those documents and any associated events or facts related to them?

Regarding sub-contracting limitations within government contracts, are independent contractors delivering work for a company considered on the same vein as sub-contracting work? This is within management consulting, and the individuals are 1099 independent contractors. The government contract also states that all subcontracts must be approved by the client and that all invoices must be passed through. Is this applicable to existing independent contractors with the company that do not submit invoices, but are paid from bi-weekly reporting on hours and expenses?
