I went to a new dentist and was told over the phone that my insurance was accepted, but after the work was done, I found out that my insurance was only partially accepted, leaving me with a large bill. I was misled. Is this technically illegal, and what can I do about it?

Why does the California Vehicle Code define a commercial vehicle as a motor vehicle of the type required to be registered under this code, and does this imply that there exist motor vehicles not required to be registered? If so, what are these vehicles, and why are they exempt from registration?

Can I call because it’s a long story? I live in Wisconsin, and it involves a bank in Florida and a person in the UK. I spoke with the bank in Florida, which says I can sign on to her account in Florida, but they have no visibility on how much is in there. I have personal checks from her/her bank that I can write. I asked my bank, and they say red flags and could be on the hook if bounced. Wasn’t planning on spending any of it till completely cleared. This is from a will from when her dad passed away, and this is to pay back my brother who has horrible credit that he can’t get a bank account. Also, the checks are in my name, like a personal checking account.

A friend is dealing with her ex-partner who owes her $6000, with $4000 given in cash and the rest digitally. The ex is currently in the army, possibly in Tucson, Arizona. What legal steps can she take to recover the debt, and what preparations are needed for this process?

I have already sent my application to USCIS for an OPT. If USCIS denies my OPT application, university advisors told me that I can appeal USCIS decision on court. My questions are how much time does this procedure usually take for and how much does it usually cost?

I was affected by a judge's decision in a trial involving a restraining order (RO) between my ex and me. The judge denied my request for a continuance, and I was unable to present my evidence due to a remote login issue and car problems. My ex and her attorney defamed me during the trial, and the judge ruled a 2-year RO against me, lifting the RO against my ex. This has affected me psychologically and emotionally, and I'm concerned about its impact on my record. I want to know if I can start a defamation and slander case outside of court, request the court records of the trial, and understand my options regarding the RO. Additionally, I want to know if a judge can reduce or modify the time of an RO and if I can speak to the judge myself about this.
