Am I still qualified to serve in my old state of residence since technically I lived there the past year, even though I've moved: I moved to Springfield from Bloomington, IN just over a week ago, and am wondering if I'm still qualified to serve on a federal jury in Indiana because I'm unclear on the law's wording. I lived in Indiana from August 2013 to may 2016.
Benjamin’s answer: You would still be qualified to serve but probably not forced to since your residency changed.
Can I force sale on this person's home with a Sheriff to get my money? Does the mortgage company have to foreclose first? : I was awarded a judgment in 2015 in the Circuit Court of St. Louis County for $20,000. The person I sued has a house with equity. I know they have a mortgage of $150,000 but the house is worth $300,000. They live in the same county as my judgment.
Benjamin’s answer: Yes you can force a sale, the mortgage company being the first secured creditor will be paid first then whatever over and above that amount that is recovered will be used to pay your judgment. I would call the garnishments clerk or Sheriff in St Louis County and they should have the forms for you.
Do I have a lawsuit??? I need an attorney to do this on a contingency bases.:
While I was staying at La Quinta, I slipped in their hot tub, and now I'm not able to lift my arm. I'm in pain. I went to the ER the next day, with a couple of prescriptions that hasn't helped . I just got home from another Dr's visit.
I'm going to have an MRI done sometime this week.
Benjamin’s answer: Very well might be a case. Were there anti slip strips or anything on the floor of the tub for traction? If not these types of cases have been successfully pursued in Missouri. Contingency fee typically 33%.
