Someone had robbed a father and his daughter of their money and passports. They went to the US embassy, but were told it was not an emergency. I have been paying for their room, board, and food, but I am out of money. I have tried to raise money to help them get home, but people think it's a scam. Is there any way to help them get home, or should I contact higher authorities like the governor or the president?

A litigant withheld its receipt of federal funds to get the court to rule under Title VII and wrongful denial of FMLA where it had immunity instead of Title VI where it didn't. When I pointed to the fraudulent concealment in a subsequent complaint, it replied by stating I didn't articulate how their behavior of failure to disclose their receipt of federal funds prevented me from procuring this information. Additionally, the defendants were making assertions for Title VII to mislead me into believing it was a Title VII matter and not Title VI, such as asserting exhaustion of administrative remedies which is required by Title VII and not Title VI. Also, they were asserting they had immunity which they do under Title VII but not Title VI. How would you respond in this situation and what is the best way to articulate a rebuttal to their argument?

When serving (putting it in the US mail) 2 answers (for 2 different defendants) upon a plaintiff's attorney in a civil matter in New York Supreme Court, can they be in the same envelope? Or do they have to be mailed in 2 different envelopes? Thank you.

I began receiving workman's comp death benefits in 2007 for my husband who passed away while traveling for business. We lived in Illinois at the time of his death, but I have since relocated back to my home in Oklahoma. I have not remarried but am currently dating someone. Yearly, I am asked to sign a notarized form that I have not remarried in order to retain my benefit. I am unclear, however, if I would also lose my benefit if my boyfriend and I decide to live together sometime in the future. Additionally, since I have relocated from Illinois to Oklahoma, which workman's compensation law is applicable to me?

My friend allowed a woman to live in his home for several years without paying rent or contributing to utilities. Recently, he caught her stealing and asked her to leave. She returned with the police, who said she had the right to be there. They are not married, engaged, or common-law partners. What are his options to legally remove her from his property?

I own a mechanic shop in Maryland. One of my employees just blew up a customer's engine. What can I do in this situation? I plan to fire him, but I'm not going to let him off the hook that easily.
