I was ticketed for exceeding 85mph and following too closely, which were marked as civil violations. I opted to pay the ticket but found out it was filed as a criminal charge and now I have a warrant. What should I do?

I live in an HOA community in Las Vegas and believe my civil and legal rights have been violated. I need advice on how to handle this situation and am familiar with the ACLU. Can you help me?

I have been joined as a co-defendant in a case based on professional negligence against a lawyer who substituted me out of a lawsuit against Bank of America relating to the terms of a mortgage. The lawyer has joined me on grounds of indemnity, contribution, and apportionment. I believe there exists a question of subject matter jurisdiction and would like to file a Motion To Dismiss For Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction. What California Code of Civil Procedure section may I cite?

On a job application, it asks if I have ever been convicted of a crime. I had a DUI in California back in 2001. Do I have to answer 'Yes' to this question if the conviction was not expunged?

I won both SSDI and SSI in superior court in NJ due to special circumstances and fraud by the SS bureau. I am being told by the state I moved to (Florida) that I don't qualify for what I was awarded. I have received a letter from the Mid-Atlantic office asking if I want to "apply" for SSI. I have never received the SSI part of my award, and whenever I apply, I get turned down because the SSD amount was based on my 30 years of full-time employment before I was seriously injured. I am now 62 and don't know whether to go to the SS bureau themselves, hire an elder attorney, pay another disability attorney, try to fix this with the local office, the Mid-Atlantic office, or what. They are using the SSD amount to say I don't qualify for the SSI amount, but I was left permanently disabled and need the benefits you can get with SSI because of prescriptions, medical costs, rising home costs, etc. Convicted felons actually get more than I do with the check, phone, utility discounts, Section 8, and food stamps. I have also been told that poor Florida has less money than NJ where I lived and worked my whole life.
