My friend, who is in a wheelchair, needs help getting out. If she is on a handicapped bus, does she have the right to stay in her chair and use the floor locks for the ride? The bus staff is telling her she has to have a caregiver put her in a seat, which she can't afford, even though the lock-down is available but they won't use it. This is at Kensington Assisted Living Residence in Walnut Creek, CA. Is there anything she can do to get free caregiver assistance in these situations as well as using the lock-down bus?

Does this mean I can't work for a payroll company that sells T&E, even though they are not a procurement company?

In a small claims bench trial in Illinois, where my husband and I are plaintiffs alleging that a salesperson did not disclose the true return policy to make a sale, can we tell the judge what a second salesperson said about the return policy, and is that considered hearsay? Should we subpoena the second salesperson to appear in court, and does the first salesperson, who is named in the complaint, have to be present in court?
