My family went through arbitration over our dad's death due to surgery complications without legal counsel due to the MICRA Law. The arbitration was awarded to the HMO. We went to the California Superior Court to vacate the arbitration award due to misconduct, fraud, and deceit, but made mistakes and missed the allotted time of service. The judge gave a tentative ruling to quash/drop the case. Is there anything we can do? How many days do we have to respond to the judge's tentative ruling? Is there any legal help for families with limited funds? Can we appeal the quash or petition for equitable tolling? Can we sue the arbitrator for being biased?

I am going to be driving for Uber and am not very familiar with the traffic/driving rules in the US as I am fairly new here. I recently learned that an infant in the car should be in an infant car seat, otherwise, it is illegal. Is there anything else like this I should know?

I attended a jurisdiction divorce hearing where the ruling was against me, and I was ordered to pay costs. The opposing party served me with a Notice of Motion (N260) on the second day of the hearing, which I believe should have been served 24 hours in advance. The judge accepted the N260 and ruled against me based on my conduct. What can I do to challenge the judge's decision, or is it not worth trying and I may waste more money?
