If an employee is out on medical leave for breast cancer, can the employer force the employee to return to work after a period of time (6 months), even if the employee has utilized short-term disability and is currently on long-term disability through the employer and has not finished treatment? The employee is a nurse working in the operating room and is scheduled for surgery requiring a 6-week no-lift restriction. HR has stated that the employee would not be allowed to return to work on 'light duty' and that the employee would be terminated if not back by a specific date.

I went to the hospital last night and was treated badly by the security officers. One officer made threats, slammed my head into the wall, and gave the other officer a high-five afterward. The other officer squeezed my arm where my IV was just removed and told me to 'shut the f**k up'. Is this a lawsuit?

My son, who has been given a criminal trespass warning to leave our property in Texas due to causing problems, has returned despite the warning. If he causes problems again, can we have him removed, and will the police help if we let him return after the warning?

My debit card was used for unauthorized transactions on 10/27/19 and 10/28/19 for amounts of $45, $45.52, and $67.68 by SimpleMobile and Tracphone. I was traveling during this time and used my card at IAD airport for a luggage fee. My bank conducted a fraud investigation and concluded that I authorized the transactions, despite my denial. The bank has withdrawn the temporarily returned funds. I do not have a SimpleMobile or Tracphone account and have been unable to contact SimpleMobile for further information. What steps can I take to resolve this issue and regain my funds?

Can a medical facility sue me for $1,000 or is it just a threat to get me to pay? I am in Florida, and I have asked if I can pay them in a lump sum, but they did not offer much of a discount. They were paid by my insurance, but there is a remaining balance. Bills are appearing constantly for services I didn't even know I had.
