I had let a friend stay in my apartment with me for about a month. Paid a bit towards rent and stuff. Then it didn’t work out and I told him to leave. He is invoking squatters rights and threatening to take me to civil court if I get him and possibly myself evicted saying I’d have to end up paying him to live there. We are not married he gets mail at my place but nothing else everything else is mine. How can I get him out and if he could really sue me for evicting him? It’s my home and he threatens all of this when I don’t let him use my car. My car.

My cousin lent his Kia vehicle to a young man to visit a hospitalized relative. The young man did not return the car after a couple of days, and the cousin reported it stolen. However, the sheriff's department will not file a stolen vehicle report. The car's movements are traceable via an EZPass, and the owner is trying to locate the car. What legal actions can be taken since the insurance company requires a police report?

I have a business contract with a customer and vendor. A check I issued to my vendor bounced, and now my customer and their lawyer are harassing me publicly, damaging my reputation. Additionally, I had to issue another check for a refund to my customer, which also bounced due to the previous issue. How can I protect myself and my company's reputation, and what are my legal options regarding the bounced checks and the defamation by the lawyer?

I have two separate felony cases in two different towns being tried by the same county attorney. I have two separate public defenders. Is this situation good or bad for me, and can the district attorney use evidence from one case in the other?
