I recently realized my previous employer, CVS, put coupon fraud on my background check. Because of that my background check comes up uncleared. How long would that stay on my background check? What is the best way to deal with this? Lawyers told me it was my fault and it would be difficult to win this case. Anyone recommend a lawyer in MD that can deal with this

The trustee (my Aunt) and her lawyers (Yep, 2 of ‘em) have sent me an accounting of the estate. But I can see some things that just dont add up and cant get any answers. Of course I dont trust them and they really dont care. So what should I do. Hire a lawyer and if so what kind? Or should I hire an investigator. The estate is complex with investments and is worth at least 2 million to my knowledge, but I really think it is worth more. Thanks.

PLEASE – no personal opinions here. (I don’t make enough to hire lawyer, make too much for free council) ok, here goes. Im facing foreclosure. I say the foreclosure is invalid: (working bkwrds)My foreclosure is a lien because I couldn’t pay a loan that was issued on facts presnted by an appraiser that was hired by a company that bought the house so I could rent to own from them. NOW: can prove appraisal is fraud, (and RTO co. knew it)<< CSS 38-10-101 Conveyances to defraud>>> which can be shown by 6-1-105 (u) (prop was drug house, didnt tell me). cn prove value was 20k less, which means my loan amt was issued on false info, foreclosure is based on loan, my future based on foreclosure. here’s my question: COLO statute38-35-204. Order to show cause. (1) (1) Any person whose real or personal property is affected by a recorded or filed lien or document that the person believes is a spurious lien or spurious document may petition the district court…. HOW? WHAT FORM? STATE OR LOCAL ?
TO EXPAND FACTS:(1.) foreclosure isn’t due to can’t afford payments, had streak of horrible luck, fell behind. (2) appraiser has priors of disciplinary actions for same (3) have valid statements showing actual comp values and mrkt analysis for that year is waaaaay below what was submitted (4) other contract violations: was to get 50% of rent payments for use as down – was never applied. (5) many errors on appraisal such as my house built in 1963, comp house in 1997 (AND next to golf course which mine DEF isn’t); appraiser stated came into house to appraise – I never saw him let alone let him in; says gravel driveway, is actually beat up cracked cement. BUT… THE BIGGEST case for intent to defraud is that for appraisal – on comp house #2 – the pic and address DON’T MATCH!! The house used in pic for that address is actually several blocks away. The house that actually belongs to that address looks nothing like it. Pic USED is much nicer house. fyi: Im in Colorado Springs,CO
first of al, Im not an idiot. I have a right to petition the court on my own . the contract i had w/ the rent to own company was based on appraised value. the loan was based on the contract. PLUS, THE MORTGAGE COMPANY HAS NO RECORD OF REVIEWING THE APPRAISAL. I am not going to take it in the A*% when this whole thing is set up on fraud and can prove it. I have every right as an American Citizen to go in anad do this. I will not be denied due process because I can’t afford a Lawyer. Thats BS. The statutes are there for us to use as a foundtion for a reason. It ALSO states that any person or person’s representative may petition. Appraisal fraud is rampant right now and something has to be done about it , and not being afraid to go against the norm and make people accountable to the statutes that were placed for just that reason does not make me an idiot. Don’t think for one damn minute that a single mom going up against a political goliath won’t make a difference, because it will.
I did not find out the contract with RTO company/appraisal was fraudulant until much later. I went to refi to AVOID foreclosure and couldn’t because since appraisal was inflated, the actual value of my home is much less than what I owe.so :2 points here, (1) if the appraisal had been accurate, I would have been able to refi and never gone into foreclosure in the first place; and besides (2) if the appraisal had been accurateIf the loan amt would have been less, therefore my payments would have been less, so I wouldn’t have needed to refi anyways, this would have never been an issue. The point is, I took out a loan amount that was based false information given by someone in the attempt to defraud me. Im not saying the foreclsure is spurious, Im saying the appraisal is spurious my property has been affected by this spurious document.

I have worked for a large call center for 13 mon. I am 51 and work in ohio. I am known to love my job, and even though it takes me a little longer to get the computer down I try with all my heart. I was fired because I placed my own personal order on the comp. and the rule book says we cannot do that. so I was fired with fraud on my term papers. I tried to explain to the security people I as god is my witness I did not know, it was a total of 47.00 over 4 orders. they kept wanting me to admit to fraud and I would not because I kept telling them I used my name and ccard, I messaged all orders so I hide nothing. they said it was still fraud. When I asked why 5 months ago when I plkace my first order for 7.68 did they not tell me he said he did not know. please if you could read between the lines will a lawyer get that off my term papers? I can understand if they had to fire me for using the wrong procedure but in 35 years of working I have never stole from anyone. PLEASE HELP

Basically, I’m 17 and live in Kentucky with my boyfriend and our daughter is due in December. Well, I was pretty desperate one day at work and made a really stupid decision and held onto a customer’s credit card. Then I bought about 1200 dollars worth of stuff to pawn off for rent money, etc. I got caught and am appearing in court on a felony charge of credit card fraud (since it’s over 100 dollars it’s a felony) and a misdeameanor charge of withholding a credit card with intent of fraudulent use. I’m being tried as a Juvenile. Since I don’t have a record what are the penalities likely to be? I understand I will probably have to pay it back which is fine because I felt guilty the minute I did it… I was just pressured by some friends and stupidly gave in which was my bad. But since I am a young mother, working full time, and also attending college what can happen? Also, should I get a lawyer and what type of lawyer should I get? Thanks.

According to these article, the reason behind the voter fraud were several ACORN employees.

They created fake registrations, were found to be committing fraud by ACORN, and were then fired. About a dozen employees.

Even so, law required ACORN to submit even the blatantly fraudulent information, but they flagged the ones that were fake registrations.

And now ACORN is getting flak for this? ACORN did all it could.

Also, there aren’t any strong connections between Obama and ACORN:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/05/smears-contradicted-obama_n_132098.html

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/03/obama-camp-debunks-voter_n_131686.html

It’s not true that Obama supported ACORN directly. Instead:
"In fact, Obama at one time represented a large coalition of groups that happened to include ACORN, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice and a host of other entities. The legal work was in support of an uncontroversial "Motor Voter" law."

"Smears Contradicted: Obama Organizing Work Was Not With ACORN
RSS stumble digg reddit del.ico.us news trust mixx.com
On Friday, the Huffington Post debunked a series of charges made by conservative activists linking Sen. Barack Obama to the community organizing group ACORN. Since then, two additional charges have been flatly contradicted.

Appearing on Fox News last week, conservative media watcher Seton Motley described the ties between Obama and ACORN as follows:

"[Obama] was a lawyer for the organization. He then served his years as a trainer of activists for the organization. And when he was named chairman of the board by terrorist William Ayers to the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, they funneled money to, amongst many other places, ACORN. So there is three stages of relationship with them."

As the Huffington Post noted on Friday, the first accusation — that Obama was a lawyer for ACORN — is deceptively vague. In fact, Obama at one time represented a large coalition of groups that happened to include ACORN, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice and a host of other entities. The legal work was in support of an uncontroversial "Motor Voter" law.

The second charge — that Obama "served his years as a trainer of activists" for ACORN — has now also been contradicted. According to writer Matthew Vadum, whom Motley has cited, "in 1992, Obama took time off from his new job at Davis Miner to direct ACORN’s voter mobilization arm, Project Vote, a hugely successful voter registration campaign… Time magazine described Project Vote in 2004 as ‘a nonpartisan arm of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN).’"

"A third claim made by Motley on Fox — that Obama was appointed to the Annenberg Challenge "by terrorist William Ayers" — appears to have been exposed as a smear by a Saturday report on Obama and Ayers published by the New York Times:

‘In March 1995, Mr. Obama became chairman of the six-member board that oversaw the distribution of grants in Chicago. Some bloggers have recently speculated that Mr. Ayers had engineered that post for him.

In fact, according to several people involved, Mr. Ayers played no role in Mr. Obama’s appointment. Instead, it was suggested by Deborah Leff, then president of the Joyce Foundation, a Chicago-based group whose board Mr. Obama, a young lawyer, had joined the previous year. At a lunch with two other foundation heads, Patricia A. Graham of the Spencer Foundation and Adele Simmons of the MacArthur Foundation, Ms. Leff suggested that Mr. Obama would make a good board chairman, she said in an interview. Mr. Ayers was not present and had not suggested Mr. Obama, she said.’"

Please read the articles and respond with your thoughts.
I do not care if you are republican or democrat. I myself was leaning toward McCain until recently. I’m an undecided voter.

I will choose the best answer to be the one that shows reading comprehension and shows unique perspective.
I’m just tired of the rumors…
Oh, thank god for your responses. I’ve been up all night watching youtube videos. One after the other: "OBAMA THIS, OBAMA THIS, NOBAMA, OBAMANATION," and the usual dribble.

All smears, all lies. At times it seems that there are more fake reports than real ones.

My faith in humanity is not completely shot. Thanks.

I need a lawyer fast. Can anyone help me to find a lawyer for this field. Where do I look?

I applied for a job at Wal-Mart Canada Corp. for Constrcution Supervision.
The person showing himself from HR dept. of Wal-Mart Canada Corp. forwarded me to a Lawyer who is suppose to do all my Work Permit and Visa clearence stuff (as I am outside Canada).
Now that Lawyer is asking me that I have to pay US$ 750 for work permit fee and all other fees will be paid by Employer.
I need to conform that the "lawyer" and his "fee" is for real or this is a some kind of fraud?
Please help me out ASAP.

Thanks

I’m looking into suing a company that allowed identity fraud to happen on my account. What type of Lawyer do I need?
Sarcastic answers need not apply.

VA CREDIT CARD FRAUD QUESTION?!?!?!?!?
PLease answer this if you’ve either been in this situation or if you have serious knowledge of it, please do not guess thankyou.

-Okay my cousin got caught with credit card fraud. She is a first time offender (shes 19 yrs old) and she only charged upto 600 hundred. The cop called her and she cooperated and the officer was pleased and even talk to the magistrate to keeping her out of jail before her arraignment. She got charged with 7 felonies and 8 misdemeanors because i guess she used at more than one store. She has letter of recomendation from a college proffesor and shes a fulltime college student. Her court date is next month and shes really worried we are all trying to look for answer for her so she can settle down. She has a lawyer and her appointment is in a couple of days. Alot of people said she wont go to jail she can get a huge fine and comm service. She’s showing ALOT of remorse for what she did. All you honest and helpful answers are appreciated. THANKS!

VONAGE=Deception,fraud, abuse of the public,and arrogance of power. Attention SEC: Consider carefully your role as protectors of the public re. the deceptive practices of this company.

- A complete set of Obama’s inferior college grades and his inferior LSAT/SAT scores would prove that Obama is an academic fraud.

- Obama has been using all suppression and legal maneuvers to block public access to his inferior college grades and his inferior LSAT/SAT scores.

- Obama has been rejecting thousands of public requests for his college records. At the same time, Obama has been using the mainstream media and his internet thugs to spread his propaganda of "academic degrees and honors" manufactured by Harvard liberals.

- All legitimate Harvard Law graduates, esp. with honors, have substantial legal accomplishments later in their careers like academic publications, rewards based on peer reviews, legal careers in terms of law cases handled, etc. Obama has produced nothing in his entire life except getting elected and claiming credit. If somebody gets "honors" from Harvard and has nothing to show for them after 17 years then maybe you should look for real honors in the color of his skin.

- Every legal secretary accomplishes more in one year than Obama has in his entire 17-year lawyer career.

- Look at the current election! Obama has collected endorsements from people who would never give him a grade above D- before his popularity and now give him A+. This is exactly what happened at Harvard. Harvard admitted Obama as an affirmative action Black. Harvard Law Review admitted Obama through a special program for Blacks without academic merit. Then Obama got himself elected as the "president" of HLR and miraculously he got his "Magna" later.

- You must be a fool to believe in the offical Harvard standards for honors. Harvard also has admission standards and you must be a fool to believe in them too.

- A cheap VCR can play "Constitutional Law" at University of Chicago without publishing any intellectual work like Obama, unlike all legitimate lecturers at UC who publish tons of work. UC had to keep Obama for fears of lawsuits even though Obama failed to publish.

- Literary experts have examined Obama’s "autobiographies" and declared with high confidence that they were written by ghostwriter(s). Many investigators have proved that his "autobiographies" are full of lies.

- USA will have to abandon all affirmative action programs of the past in order to compete with the Asian economies fueled by educational systems based on competitive standardized tests and grueling exams. Harvard liberals will not be able to manufacture fake "academic degrees and honors" for Obama types because the competitive environment will not allow them.

Hello,

On the 12th of this month, my brother accessed my online banking and transfered 100 pounds in to his account.

I had given him my password back in May 2009 but right after changed it, In October 2009 I changed it back to that password because I got through changeing passwords on everything.

I reported this to my bank and to the police.

I got a letter from the banks fraud team today saying that they will not refund it because I gave my password to a 3rd party, even though I changed it pretty much twice.

Surely this is illegial regardless, I am tempted to take legal advice about this, if ts fraud in the law’s eyes, surely it should be with the bank.

I really could do with some advice.

Thanks, Ross

Party A improved Party B’s homestead (a condominium) against Party B’s wishes but with the approval of the Homeowners Association which was fraudulently solicited and achieved. Party A then made a financial demand of Party B to pay for the homestead upgrade which Party B did not immediately pay in full because they correctly asserted that the upgrade was unnecessary.. Party A then hired an attorney to collect in full who then began charging legal fees to Party B. Party B then agreed to pay Party A their original demand only (but not legal fees) but under protest because the amount due is based on Party A’s fraud. But by paying now and suing for fraud later, Party B hopes to prevent the attorney from foreclosing on their homestead which the lawyer has stated in writing that they are doing.

The lawyer is now in possession of Party B’s check for the remaining unpaid amount of the unnecessary upgrade which Party B has offered as a settlement. The attorney has yet to file a lien but is still desirous of collecting legal fees.

If the attorney proceeds to file a lien on Party B’s homestead even after Party B has paid the original amount of Party A’s claim against them, what crime might that be?

And if the lawyer does not attempt to settle for purposes of protracting the conflict so as to generate higher hourly charges for their legal services, what might that crime be?

1.I am being charged for Automobile insurance fraud. DA’s conclusion states accident never happened in 2003. And that 1 guy and i planned and got recruits from two cars.

2. Total of eight people totaling in the two vehicles. Which this concludes that its organized crime, when more than 3 are trying to
commit a crime so everyone benefits.

3. The 1 guy, admitted to 6 accidents that he planned, and one of those so called " Staged accidents is where my name is"

4. To make long story short, two people from the car that i was in are stating that it never happened and that i and my friend planned it. One of those is my x-gf, it was her car. THey all got imunity

5. Reconstruction accident experte, concluded that the two cars colided and one had others paint on it. And the car was drivable.

I am stressed, im in superior court and my lawyer is telling me to plea guilty , and get probation and a FELONY. I am a college student senior in engineering and i want to take it to court, because its a fifty fifty chance.. but the outcome if i loose is jail..

Ther is so many inconsistancies is everyone’s story, but my lawyer tells me that even if there is , dosent mean that they are lying…

Any advice for me??

My cosuin did something stupid and is now in a panic. She used her DEAD dads social security number/details to ensure a loan and order a laptop. She’s worried once the loan process begins they will find out her dad has been dead for 5 years(?) Or however long and she won’t get the loan and worst of all fraud charges will be pressed. *sigh* She also threaten to leave the country and head to new zealand or australia. I’m not sure their extridation laws are or if she’d be brought back and charged. I need good advice from someone who might help.

my name is sara, i am being charged for filing an insurance false claim ,attempting to commit a crime also another one that i forgot.

There are 2 people that were in the accident that are saying that the accident i had with them in the past never happened and that i orchestrated it, bring people to therapy,lawyer for $$.
All lies, i did nothing. SO im indicted to superior court, lawyer said, They dismissing the case but taking me to superior court.
How can 2 people lie and say that i orchestrated a staged accident that never happened. They admitted to fraud and they pointing fingers at me.. they prob did it, and i did not know about it.
I don’t have anything to worry about, because i did not do as they say i did. I’m only worrying i will be an innocent victim and go to jail for something i did not do.

I am 17 years old work for a restaurant called Frizzle’s. It is privately owned business local to Huntsville, AL. I have been there for 9 months now and like the work and the people decently. For the first few months I never really kept up with my money, but some people started complaining about being shorted money so I have been keeping very close track of it lately. I have noticed that I am missing approximately 4 hours or so on my last couple checks. I asked the managers about it and was told that due to a lot of employees taking a break on the clock, everyone is now being deducted 30 mins (allowed break time) out of every 4+ hour shift. Can they really, legally do this, or is that considered payroll fraud? I personally do not usually take a break when I work, and when I do I actually clock out. It’s not necessarily even the money issue that makes me mad, just the fact that I am flat out being screwed out of money for time that I put in money.
I am also pretty sure that the money that is deducted from our checks is not being reported on their tax records (although I have no proof of this). Since it is an individually owned business there is no corporate office or anyone I can complain to, so what I can do about the money that we are all being ripped off? I would rather avoid having to sue them, and I’m not interested in making thousands of dollars. I just want to be paid for the time I work. And I don’t want a bunch of lawyer and court fees just over a couple hundred dollars.

I am also requesting a copy of the record of all the hours I have worked since I have been there and a copy of every check stub (which from whata I read they legally have to give me if I request it and I KNOW they have it all on record somewhere).

Anyway I know this was long, but I appreciate any advice or information anyone can give me, especially like a civil lawyer or something. If you think you could help me out with a few questions long term please email me at penguinluvinman@yahoo.com

My step daughter has gone insane after her mothers death. The both of us were named as executors of the will. She STOLE my copy of the most recent will,and I filed a report with the sheriff. The sheriff told me that "if" a copy of the other will could be produced,then charges could be laid, otherwise,at this time it’s just a civil case. My step daughter entered my house under false pretenses, when I wasn’t home, and stole my copy of the will,and then went and filed an earlier ‘version’ with the court. She also sued me to have me removed as executor because her layers did a background check on me. I have a felony from over 25 years ago. State law says I can be removed because of my record. The lawyer that did the wills for my wife refuses to help me. He said I must get a statement to release my late wife’s records, from my stepdaughter, because SHE is now the executor. If I go to the length to drag that creepy lawyer into court, I would then really want the step daughter charged with FRAUD and BURGLARY , and HARASSMENT. I’ve already been ‘banned’ from ever seeing the step-grand kids. They all call me "Gran-pa up-up". Not only did they lose their beloved grandma, now they are denied gram-pa up up as well. I have the FULL support of the other step children. (all of them are over 21)
How can I get the copies of the will, without having to charge my stepdaughter and her redneck husband with criminal ,charges?
I just want to have that will in my hands to SHUT HER THE FK UP!
I have some assets for a lawyer, but if I have to go there, she and her husband have to go to jail. Is that the only way?
I have several signed and notarized statements from witnesses as to the existence of the second will, and it’s provisions. That includes my wife’s sisters, my mother, and the minister that performed our marriage. Now she is refusing to provide the paperwork I need to complete the ‘SIMPLE ASSUMPTION’ so I can get the house transferred into my name. She says her lawyers say she can sell it. The mortgage is UNDERWATER ! She doesn’t care, she’s NUTS ! What can I do?
the house does belong to me, but in the ‘earlier’ version of the will, there is a clause that since we weren’t married, the house should be sold asap, and if it didn’t sell after 6 mos. , then I would have top battle it out with the Bank of America home loan dept. But after we were married, the UPDATED,STOLEN will gave me the house, and ALL the incoming insurance money from AFLAC. I really think handcuffs are gonna look good on her !
After the sale,any equity, if any, would be split fairly and legally. 50% for me, the other 50% split between the three adult kids.

This situation requires some background info, so bear with me here. As a hobby, I sometimes do erotic fanart (to be clear – these are cg drawings only, not photos, not live pornography). I’ve been approached a few times by people who want to commission original erotic art from me. I would like to accept, but it is really, crucially important to me not to allow my smutty fanart-identity ever be linked to my real name. Not even my closest friends know, because I draw in two different styles to mask my identity.

Yes, I know it’s perfectly legal to draw or sell porn and it’s not like I’m running for political office or anything, so I doubt I would get in trouble if anyone found out – but still I would die of embarrassment if it ever came out that I draw porn for fun.

And I’ll bet it’d be just my luck that, should I accept commissions, someday I’ll run into someone who recognizes my name somehow and/or is the friend of a friend of one of my co-workers or fellow students.

So, I am wondering if it is legal and possible for me to use a fake name on Paypal in order to accept payments from people who want to commission my art? How should I go about setting this up? I have a Paypal account under my real name. I only want to hide/change my name, I do NOT want to fake any other required information, I do NOT want to commit fraud of any kind.

Has anyone here done commerce under a pseudonym before, for whatever reason? Did it work out alright, or… disaster?

Thank you for your advice.

5 months ago, I bought a condo in Illinois.Three weeks after I moved in, I recieved a letter by mail from the management of the building. They notified the owner of the unit (me!) that the severe damage in the foundation that they talked about before, was getting worse. They confirmed that the damage was so severe that might cause the building to shut down for safety purposes. They asked the unit owners to pay for the repair. They asked me, also, to pay ,080 for the repair ! The total cost of repair is 4,000 by estimate. Because of the "fraud" and "knowingly failure to disclose the true condition of the property", I sued the seller. 3 month later, court told me that they couldn’t find the defendants, and as a result I have to find their address, then I can sue them! I know they moved to Palatine recently. I can not afford a lawyer. I need help to find them, and invite them to the court of Law. Does anybody know how can I get help? Can anybody help me represent my case in court?

Hello,

A lawyer and his client tried to get a protective order against my mother and I, knowing it had no merit whatsoever. Additionally, he tried to get us served the day before the initial hearing date that was in a court 1,500 miles away, knowing that we would have no chance to either travel to court or hire a lawyer to represent us. Fortunately, the local sheriff’s office didn’t serve us until the day after the hearing, so it was rescheduled. Once we submitted our answer proving that there was no grounds for a protective order, the case was dropped.

We can prove that the lawyer knew that there were no grounds for a protective order but filed one anyways in attempt to upset my mother, and basically to try to get a default order against us without giving us a chance to respond (if we did get served the day before but didn’t show up, that is what would have happened). Additionally, we can prove that the lawyer himself had a personal interest in pushing the phony protective order through.

So my question is, besides going to the state lawyer ethics board and having him sanctioned professionally, is there something else we can do say, criminally or even civilly? For example, mail fraud or something. I know he didn’t commit mail fraud because there was no money involved, but something along those lines. Is there a criminal/civil law that states he can’t file false charges?

Thanks for any input.

1. there are recordings, that the DA has that i told my gf to get a lawyer before going to the police station to give a report.
2. She also recorded me as i said, " ur gona let cops scare you, u are a strong woman" .
3. WEll i have witneses against me that are lying, and they blame me for a Automobile insurance fraud they participated and stated i coached them on what to say. " they saved their ass, and lied, and u can tell by recordings of their stupidity.
4. One guy admited to one fraud, and got confused of another fraud he did . Well this guy is doing anything to get out of his Troubles and points the finger at me
5. Now their is a guy who pled to 38 charges of automobile insurance fraud, did 6 months in jail for it, and also stated i was his associate and that one of thoese accidents he plead guilty was " the paper accident he staged that i was in" only in paper.

A. In conclusion, out of the so called paper accident. of the total of the two cars supposidly crashed, there are 5 people stating that the accident was only done in paper.
B. 3 people in my gf car are stating it did happen, this hapened in 2002 and the case was oppened in 2008.. MY lawyer tells me to plea guilty because no jurror is going to belive that
(C)
All these people are lying because they wanted to plea a deal and they knew cops wanted me.. Im stuck and i have no idea what to do ,

3-yeras probation
0 fines
300 hours community service
-and a felony..

NOTE: Sucks, im trying to tell my lawyer im still in school and i graduate as a EE major next year.. I want to plea to a lesser charge, and have the felonies dropped.
If i plea not guilty, just to have more room time and breathing time. As someone stated in this answer, " i dont think i’ll have the choice to , take the deal offered in the beginning" ??
– He gave me a due date, and i changed that due date and he was ok with it.. BUT he goes on vacation the next week, so i think im being rushed.. ( its been 2 years now going to superior court)
– If i change my lawyer at this time, and get a private i dont think thats gona change anyhting. Cuz all the facts are there. but id like to plea to lesser charges, and drop the felonies!!!!!
