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?

I have a friend whose daughter has PA and he is not getting the medical attention he needs. He has had a stroke and when he called for help, they put him in bed to sleep it off. Is there anything I can do?

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?
