In the first week of June, my wife and I purchased a Hyundai from a new Hyundai dealership. We completed all the standard paperwork including a credit application. The car, out-the-door, was $34,000; we put $10,000 down. Unbeknownst to us, the dealership had certain computer system failures, and the dealership did not process our credit check through the Hyundai agency, but instead ran it through a neighboring (next door) agency--a Chevrolet/Cadillac agency; therefore, all my credit information, from the three major credit reporting groups, were wrongfully processed by the Chevrolet/Cadillac agency at the request of the Hyundai dealership, where I understood my credit information would be limited to the Hyundai credit department only. Is this not a wrongful invasion of privacy by both agencies? What are the legal ramifications of these acts? What is their pecuniary exposure?

Yes, this could be considered a wrongful invasion of privacy if you did not provide written consent ...

I have 3 tickets from 2005 that went into warrant status due to non-payment. One warrant covered 2 tickets (DAR & Speeding), and the other covered the third ticket (No Proof of Auto Insurance). On 6/25/10, I paid the cash bail to quash the warrants, and I have court on 7/13 to answer these tickets. I want to admit fault because I am guilty. What kind of sentence can I expect for these misdemeanors, and is it possible to avoid jail time by being honest with the judge, apologizing, and providing documentation of my employment, living situation, and character references?

I was denied a counseling license in Arizona in 2007 due to omissions on my job applications, which the board interpreted as lying. My license lapsed, and I believe this has ruined my life and taken away my means of support. Can I sue them for this?
