I had my case dismissed based on a failure to respond to interrogatories. Is that something I can challenge using Rule 60(b)? The judge didn’t specify if the dismissal was with or without prejudice, and the defense dragged it out for three years, potentially past the statute of limitations. The docket still shows my case as “open.” Can I file my response to the dismissal or am I barred now for good?

I was arrested for felony larceny after finding a bag of money at a store, not realizing it was a Walmart deposit, and spending it. This is my first offense, and I have a court date tomorrow. What should I do to address this situation and potentially avoid a criminal conviction?

In my medical malpractice case, my lawyer missed a filing deadline for punitive damages, and I want to find the documentation that shows when these punitive damages were rejected. I also feel trapped by a confidentiality agreement and am questioning whether my lawyer has an obligation to inform me when something like this happens, so I can assess the risk/benefit ratio of continuing the case. What documented proof can I ask for, and does my lawyer have a duty to provide this information and warn me about the implications of missed deadlines?

Good morning Sarah, I am following up on our previous conversation about Terminix regarding my daughter’s rat infestation. We took your advice and requested remediation and disputed the charges with my credit card company. Remediation was done with no satisfaction, and my credit card company is in the investigative process. I’ve also sent a letter to Terminix chronologizing events this past year and voicing my dissatisfaction with their service, since the problem is worse than ever. I am reaching out again to see what Terminix’s recourse might be if the money is refunded. Also, if it comes down to taking them to small claims court, I would like whatever helpful advice you could give me.

My wife and I each have 33 1/3 ownership in a restaurant, and there is one additional owner with the same share. We want to know if we can vote this individual out, sell our shares, and walk away. Additionally, we have been denied access to emails, the POS system, and the bank account, and I was physically assaulted by the other owner, her brother, and boyfriend. We are located in Ohio and have not taken any legal steps yet.
