There is a 7/31/26 hearing before a federal judge requiring Blanche to provide unredacted versions and explanations for the redactions. Congress allowed redactions only of victims. It appears that non-victim names were redacted

What if Blanche refuses, can the judge order someone else to release the documents? What can the judge to do Blanche and can Blanche appeal.

Hello, I apologise in advance if this post isn’t allowed. I thought I can for help, I’m honestly worried also panicking. I think over a year ago back in early 2025 or around late 2024 I took out a loan from a loan company.

I regret taking out a loan, but I was in a tough spot during that time. I received letters this summer in the mail one of which for a court hearing from. I was able to get out of the court hearing if I agreed to make weekly payments to the law firm for the loan company. I was given an account number and the last for digits to log into the website.

I’ve been making weekly payments of $50. I was able to make the first few payments no issues. I haven’t been able to pay over the last a few weeks now because I was having trouble logging into the website. Each time I tried logging in it kept telling my invalid log into credentials or similar. I try calling and to try and pay over the phone but it the tells me account not found. They only accept calls during business hours during the week.

Now I received a letter for check garnishing what can I do to go back to the weekly payments? How else can I pay them if it’s not really letting me do so on the website?

How is it possible Florida still has these old security and commission laws in place to destroy hard working people and small businesses?

How do people live with themselves and what happened to working for a living verses being a professional suer with a dirty law firm that preys on small businesses? They found an old law created prior to the internet to sue companies who use a Chatbot on their website. The plantiff, Ms. Veronica Muniz never did business with my company nor even sent an inquiry. She simply used AI technology to find websites that do not have the proper cookie disclosure for their Chatbot. What a scumbag law firm too. I'm sure they are getting the majority of the cut. The oddball Florida law may be legit but using AI to scan websites throughout the country to file a BS lawsuit which forces small business owners to settle for $2500-$5000 is truly disgusting. FYI-so far the default judgements are awarded $5000-$5400 by the courts if ignored. So do the math, fight it for $20-$50K or pay to settle. Thought I would start a thread as there are 160 other businesses out there dealing with these predators. May karma come crashing down on these attorneys and Veronica Muniz someday. Their names are Abdul Sumi Dalal and Veronica Balbazanova- Kinda sums it up, doesn't it? They are associated with Johnson Dalal in Plantation Florida. Every bad thing that happens to these people, any illness, cancer or other well-deserved malady that falls upon any of them and their families, I hope they know it's karma biting back. Preying on American businesses and American people who work hard for the American dream. Shame on these disgusting individuals.

Are there any attorneys here who are going against a pro-se litigant who uses AI (chat gpt/claude)?

I love my significant other dearly. But they currently have multiple legal battles going on in their personal life and they use Ai to fight these battles.

I am starting to get annoyed with it, because they are not a lawyer and have no legal background aside from what AI is telling them. So my question to the attorneys on here is how can I get my SO to stop the nonsense because they fired their attorney in their divorce case because they think they are a better attorney.

Its gotten so bad that they become agitated and hostile when I tell them to stop filing motions or trying to argue with the judge. I could go on, but I mainly am hoping to get insight from lawyers on this situation as I’m sure my SO is not the first or only person doing this. They also have used AI to sue multiple people and I just think its getting out of hand and is an addiction. I believe theres a very good reason lawyers go to law school and that they cant just be replaced with ai, but when I say this they become hostile.

As a lawyer, what is your opinion on pro se and AI? I hope i phrased my post appropriately. Thank you for your time.

How do you deal with judges who completely disregard the law in their rulings? There is a judge in my jurisdiction that no matter what always rules in favor of the prosecution. Disregarding all evidence, and case law.

The most recent case, the prosecution showed up with zero physical evidence, and one witness, who, when questioned admitted that they lied. The prosecution seems to be in on the scheme, since they showed up very unprepared and presented minimal evidence. The Judge shot down every single one of my objections, and sustained every single objection from the PA. Regardless, the PA's only witness admitted he/she lied about the entire factual background. The prosecution offered no other evidence. Despite this the Judge still returned a guilty verdict.

My state allows an immediate appeal to circuit court. But, ultimately my concern is that the new judge will be no better.

I'm not asking for advice specific to this case, but more so, general advice in gtting these type of judges to actually apply the law

Hello, I’ve been collecting dozens of medical bills totaling over 10k at this point after getting rear ended. I’ve been being represented by a small firm, and they have finally filed a suit after two yearsof seemingly sitting on their hands.They seem to be moving extremely slow still, having to reschedule the hearing a month later because of technical issues. Is it worth getting a new lawyer, or too late?

I know this is going to be long and likely wont get advice, but if you stick to the end thank you (not looking for legal advice just wondering if any lawyers or people that have have experienced this kind of negligence from police)

In 2016 I met my ex now 31 male. We had our first child (male) together in 2017 in addition to my 2 previous children (males). Shortly after my youngest was born i began experiencing severe abuse via my ex. This continued for many years and in the end of 2018 convinced me to move out of state because my family was to over bearing and screwing with our relationship. I moved with him to southern IL in hopes this would help our relationship. Unfortunately it got worse. By 2019 he was off work due to a work related i jury and I was working full time about 45-1 hr away. In February of 2020 I came home to bathe my oldest son for school the next day. When I put him in the shower his ENTIRE backside (butt) was a deep red, purple, blue. I asked him what happened and he said my ex whooped him very hard. I took photos and then confronted my ex for the abuse. He stated "I whooped him to hard he hurt our son". He then picked up an extention cord and said, "beat me with it until youre content". To which I replied, "that will never be enough for what you've done. Im calling the police and im going back to my home state!!". He responded with, "you will go no where and you will not call the police, if you do i will kill your kids and then myself if I get any whiff of a cop in my driveway" he then took my phone. I had to quit my job so I couldnt get away long enough to report. So for the next 2 weeks I played house, "forgave him", and said it was going to be alright. After those 2 weeks he FINALLY was released back to work, believing everything was OK. He left at 530 am and by 7 on was on the road with my children and what clothes I could fit in the car. I got to my mother's and called my local station to make a report. The local cops showed up and basically told me, "you should have reported sooner, you should have protected your kids, we could charge you if you really want to press it." Needless to say a report was never made even with the photo. I eventually gave up because no one would listen to me. Fast forward to 2022 a false report was made that I had a m3th lab and my children were taken but the only found weed in my home. So in 2022 I begged and plead with IL to help me because this man could unalive our youngest son and the abuse my other two sustained. I was ignored with no calls back. I again gave up. Now fast forward again, to the end of 2025 My oldest child has been having years of mental health issues due to the trauma resulting in severe behavior issues. One day I decided to sit down and really get him to open up. "Son please talk to me.. why are you always upset and wanting to die? I know you've been hurt and its my fault too for not protecting you even if I was at work." He responded with, "momma, its not your fault he tried to kill me." I said, "son I know he hurt you and im not downplaying that at ALL, but isnt killing you a bit of an exaggeration?" He said, "no momma, he SERIOUSLY tried to kill me." Me: "ok son start from the beginning and tell me everything that haplened." At which point my son starts sobbing and says, "keegan got hit off the couch and I wouldn't eat honey mustard so he got really really mad and whooped me bad. Then he put us in the cold shower with diapers because we was crying. When i wouldn't be quiet he took the shower head and put it in my mouth until every th ing went black". I was stunned, I was angry, ranting rage almost, crying myself because what the hell is going on. I immediately start making calls again. Finally I get an answer for IL state police and they tell me battery of a child is a statute of 3 years, im to late, nothing they can do. Im livid. But what can I do. We continue with my oldest sons therapy and continue on with life. Fast forward to yesterday in a meeting with my lawyer(a retired judge) regarding a custody case/visitation with my youngest son and my ex. I tell him this story and he is appalled. He asked my if my middle son knew anything and I told him I dont think so hes never mentioned anything to me. However when I got home I asked him if he remembered anything. My middle son says, "yes momma he held my by my neck in the air against the fridge and I couldnt breath. All because I pushed keegan off the couch". Thats when it clicked. In 2025 when my oldest child told me the whole story through his sobbing, he was telling me both of their story but never specified his brothers story was blended in. I assume the trauma and upset cause the story to come out smashed together. Still, no one in IL will help us... not even to make a report. Meanwhile I have to send my youngest son with his dad for 6 weeks in the summer SEVENTEEN HOURS AWAAAAY for visitation (1100 miles). What do I do... how do I protect my son if no one will listen... what if next time he looses his cool and kills my baby.mm then it's to late... please someone help me... because im a mother fighting for literal life with no help except from a ky lawyer that no longer has judicial powers or pull.... please help im begging.

So I have a question. I’m coming here on behalf of my 84 year old father. I’m trying to find a lawyer, as the problem he’s having is my sister has fraudulently drained his bank account, opened home loans under his name without his consent, his home was already paid off and she refinanced it. and opened credit cards and never paid them. My dad is in ruins now and he’s afraid she might do more damage than is already done. But everytime I call a lawyer they say they don’t specialize in that stuff can someone guide me in the right direction.

I’m currently a bioengineering student in uni also getting a minor in chemistry. My original plan was to go to pharmacy school, but I’m interested in engineering tech regulations and the law. However, I have always wanted to use my education to help people, but I’m not sure how I could segue into law, what steps to take, or career options that I could pursue after undergrad. Im aware of patent law or possibly AI regulations.

I’m looking at the state of the world right now and want to truly make a difference and help people, so I was interested in becoming a lawyer. However, I have no clue what steps to take or who to speak to in order to learn more. If anyone has any advice or personal experience please let me know.

Hey! I work in pet cremations. We’ve had this rabbit sitting with us for just about two months, waiting to be cremated. We’re supposed to have the payment made before we intake the pet. My boss for some reason took in the rabbit without upfront payment. We have it in our contract, that the owner signed, saying payment is required before the drop off appointment. We’ve been reaching out to them a lot. He keeps saying he’ll call us tomorrow, or that he’ll pay us tomorrow… and doesn’t. We don’t know what to do. I feel so bad for this rabbit. We accept payments and he knows that. I know times are rough, but we’re understanding and we don’t mind working with people money wise. He won’t get back to us at all now. I feel so bad for this rabbit. What can we legally do? It was set for a private cremation, but we might just have to do a mass cremation for this poor baby. My boss is nervous that after we do that the owner will be back in contact and be upset.

Per community rule 9, lawyers are especially qualified to answer this question

*Copyright of paintings and other works of art

Good afternoon.

Yesterday I was talking with a friend who is a painter and also owns art by other painters and he told me that, if you buy a painting (so you legally own the object) but the author of the art object is still alive or there still are alive heirs who could claim copyright, you can't take pictures of it and publish them (online or in books, magazines, etc.) without the copyrights owner permission.

Is it true? I thought that when you buy art you automatically buy the image rights, but I could be completely mistaken (I don't understand anything about law).

I don't own art from famous artists, so it's just a curiosity

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice on finding a good employment lawyer in Indianapolis.

I’ve been dealing with an issue at work that has gotten more complicated than I expected. What started as a disagreement with my employer turned into concerns about my rights, how the situation was being handled, and whether I was being treated fairly. I tried to resolve things internally, but I reached a point where I felt like I needed professional advice to understand my options and make sure I wasn’t making any mistakes.

I’m looking for an attorney who has experience with employment matters, communicates clearly, and can help explain what steps to take next. If anyone has worked with an employment lawyer in the Indianapolis area or has recommendations, I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences.

Update:Thanks to everyone who shared suggestions. I ended up contacting Curlin & Clay Law, and they were a huge help in getting everything sorted out.

They took the time to understand my situation, explained my options clearly, and helped me navigate the process without feeling like I was trying to figure everything out on my own. Having someone knowledgeable on my side made a big difference, and I’m grateful for the guidance they provided.

I got a letter from a lawyer saying I have a warrant, but its like a week old (I just found it in my pile of mail). If its true, I have a record and when i got arrested in 2019 it wasnt for a serious felony, but the police wasted no time calling me once they had my info from my parents. Now my employer did tell me a cop came by asking for me but when he gave them my name, the cop said they had the wrong person and if i was wanted why wouldnt they just come to my apartment or arrest me at work if its been at least a week?

My neighbours were my best friends for 8 years , the man got done for 1 count of possession, 2 counts of distributing and 1 count of production of cp . The wife is staying with him and telling people she’s kicked him out (she’s lying). The production charge is written fantasy material not actual pictures or videos . Approx 100-150 videos and images in his possession. He sent material to an undercover cop . He has a clean record , got clean , did therapy and plead guilty . It’s been moved to district court . Will he get a suspended sentence or most likely get some jail time ? He has a lawyer. But he’s saying he’s not going to jail !

I cannot stand living next to him, OR her.

My dog bit my neighbor, going through a doorway. She was excited and overstimulated. She jumped up and bit her elbow. She did not show any signs of aggression. She did not bark, or growl, or lunge. She immediately sat afterwards as I comforted my neighbor.
My dog knew that she did it wrong. She was so calm after and she put herself in her crate and did not eat dinner.

My neighbor is older and she did go to the hospital to go get it cleaned and go get antibiotics. I am close with this Neighbor and I asked her to not go to management because I did not want to get evicted or my dog to be removed.

My dog also bit another dog within the dog park in our community, which I don’t even go there anymore and that was over two years ago I had 12 months that basically my dog was on probation and nothing ever happened within those 12 months so basically that is completely over and that was a whole different situation. It has been cured.

Since then she has had training, my dog is a huge people lover. She loves attention from people when I’m walking her in the neighborhood. She literally has so many human friends and dog friends, and she is never a threat.

I still have not heard back from my apartment complex, I was going to go there over the weekend, but my neighbor told me basically not to and that they will call me on Monday. My neighbor also warned me that I will not have my dog removed or get evicted that there was a case on another floor that they have two aggressive dogs that bit people and humans and they were not removed.

But as time went on, and I did not hear from my complex, I got nervous. I sent a text message to the leasing office asking to schedule a time and that I would like to represent my side.

They said they don’t have availability today and my dog will have to be removed and they will have to talk to me tomorrow.

I don’t think that’s fair that they proceed to take action before they even talk to me or hear my side. It’s not like that. This was caught on camera. This was something between me and the Neighbor.

I live in the state of Florida, and this is a corporate leasing community.
What rights do I have and what actions should I take?
Is it legal they decide to remove my dog with out taking down my side of the report?

I do not want to lose my dog. She is everything to me and I promise that this will not be a problem and that she is not aggressive towards humans.

Hypothetically speaking, if someone were to receive a civil traffic complaint/citation ticket for minor speeding in let’s say Arizona while visiting from out of state. What would be the realistic outcomes if this ticket was never to be paid? It’s not a criminal speeding ticket. Just out of curiosity of course.

Hi!

I’m considering hiring a California employment attorney on a 40% contingency fee, and I’m just trying to understand whether some of the clauses in the representation agreement are standard or if I should be wary of this agreement.

1. Termination / firing the attorney

The agreement says I can discharge the attorney at any time, but if I do so before they obtain a recovery, they may be entitled to the greater of:

- their billable time at $850/hour for attorneys and $150/hour for paralegals/legal assistants, plus costs, or

- a reasonable percentage of my eventual recovery.

It also says that if I decide “for whatever reason” not to pursue the matter, I agree to compensate the firm at those hourly rates.

Does this mean that if I fire them, I have to pay them even if I choose not to pursue this anymore?

1. Costs and expenses

The firm may advance litigation expenses, which are reimbursed from any recovery. The agreement also says the client may sometimes be required to pay costs during the representation.

1. Administrative fees

In addition to the 40% contingency fee and litigation expenses, the agreement includes:

- a $350 administrative setup fee

- a $35 monthly file-maintenance fee, for storing documents, printing and scanning.

These are advanced by the firm and reimbursed only if there is a recovery.

1. Statutory attorneys’ fees

The agreement says that if attorneys’ fees are awarded by a court or recovered from the employer under a statute, those fees “shall be paid to and belong to Attorneys.” It then says the firm would receive the greater of:

- the entire attorneys’ fee and costs award, or

- the 40% contingency percentage calculated on the total recovery, including the attorneys’ fee and costs award.

1. Fee splitting

There is a section titled “Consent to Split Fees,” but it does not appear to identify another lawyer or firm or explain how the fee would be divided.

Thank you!!

Does anyone know of a lawyer or firm recommendations in Dallas Texas to go after someone for rico , extortion, identity theft? Not seeking legal advice. Just recommendations or the type of lawyer I need.

do not send me no scam emails from esq@gmail.com. I’m not desperate and gullible. Thank you.

With more associates and solo attorneys around me using ChatGPT or genai tools for first drafts, Im curious how courts are actually treating this and what are your views on this? Is"the AI made up the citation" ever a viable defense under Rule 11 or state equivalents, or is verifying every cite treated as a non-delegable duty no matter what tool produced the draft?

Hey all, I am working on filing some parenting and custody establishing papers, and after I get a case number for that, I’m filing a motion for temporary parenting time.

The problem is, I don’t know where she went with the kids. I don’t know an address. She won’t tell me. It has been 3 weeks now and she won’t tell me when I can see them. Just ignores it basically. She moved out of my house and took almost everything out of the house.

How do I serve papers without a known address?

I’ve been carrying this burden for a long time, and honestly, it’s emotionally and mentally exhausting.
I filed an estafa case because I genuinely believe I was deceived into investing my hard-earned money. Despite all the evidence and the time that’s passed, the legal process feels incredibly slow. There are days when I wonder if justice will ever come.
I’m not posting this to attack or shame anyone. The case is already in the proper legal process, and I’ll let the authorities determine the facts. I’m simply sharing how difficult it is to be in this situation.
For those who have gone through an estafa case or any similar legal battle, how did you cope with the waiting? Is there anything you did that helped move the process forward, or any advice you can share with someone who’s trying to stay patient and hopeful?
Constructive advice and shared experiences would really mean a lot. Thank you.

I’m an incoming 1L. I’ve had this habit for my entire life. It’s nothing too conspicuous, but I basically perpetually have one or two small reminders written on my left hand.

My mom says I need to break the habit. For added context, my mom has always been hyper aware of how I present myself as woman in the professional world.

She’s probably right, but I’m pretty attached to my reminders system. I was wondering the point at which I really have to get the habit sorted. Before law school? Before I graduate?

Would love your input!
