I have two felony charges from 12-13 years ago: 1. Theft and 2. Assault with a deadly weapon. I live in Washington DC, where one charge is from, and the other is from Arlington VA. Would I be able to have these convictions expunged so that I may apply for certain jobs with the government?

You cannot get the felony convictions expunged; instead, you would require a pardon in both states. ...

If a teacher posts on the school website (which is password-protected and accessible only to students) a page from a textbook for students who have forgotten their homework, is that a copyright infringement? The pages are typically from math or spelling workbooks, and the school owns a hundred copies of the book. The pages are not being sold; they are for the use of students who have left their book at school. In the past, the school has faxed a copy of the page to the students, but it is more convenient if the assignment sheet is posted for 48 hours.

I recently bought a 2008 Mercury Milan from Summit Ford in Elbridge, NY. When I took possession of my Ford Certified car, I realized later the same day that the glass on all of the car's windows was scratched and could be seen quite visibly. I took it back to the dealer, and they said they would rub the glass out, but the windows are still scratched, and they will not do anything else for me. I was told it was a used car and I had to expect this kind of damage. What should I do?

Our dog was bitten by another dog while my husband was walking our dog on a leash on a public sidewalk. The attacking dog was tethered to a stake in a front yard and pulled the stake out to get to our dog. Our dog incurred puncture wounds to the neck and his ear was torn and required sutures. The vet bill was $383.55, of which the owners of the attack dog have paid only $50.00. We live in Henderson, NV, and the attack dog's family have moved to Boulder City, NV. Do I file a small claim in Henderson? I can't find a small claims court in Boulder City online. We have already sent a demand letter and it was refused.
