I have 2 friends who are codefendants in a criminal case. After the arraignment, there was a no-contact order that I was unaware of. I communicated with both friends to check on their well-being, and I also informed them about each other's situation. I am now worried that this communication might harm their case. Will they be in trouble?

My girlfriend took out a loan 10 years ago, which was sold to a collection agency. The agency obtained a default judgment, and her salary is now being garnished. She never received a summons, and the collection agency is seeking a higher amount than the original loan. What can we do at this time?

Does a building restriction ever expire? There is a subdivision with multiple commercial lots. The subdivision was originally restricted to 2 mid-size hotel lots. The 2 hotel lots were sold back in 2004/2005. There are two hotels of about 200 rooms built on them in 2005. There is a third vacant lot. Would I need the permission of the existing hotel owners to build a hotel, or do restrictions on property use inside a subdivision expire over time?
