| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 06:51 AM PST Legally speaking, I'm concerned that I served someone who wasn't mentally capable. I checked their ID and they were certainly over 21. I asked them a question or two about the drink they asked for (Bud light) and they were able to competently answer. My main concern stems from comments I heard from other bar patrons and and even my manager who later asked me about it. I'm not really knowledgeable in the subject of special education but this is how I can best describe his level of capacity. He was able to articulate what he wanted to drink and knew what it meant. Although he briefly answered the questions relating to his drink he was not able to hold a conversation with me about the weather after I had served him. Our entire conversation centered around that he wanted bud light and that he had the funds to pay for it. He asked me for the price and then paid down to the cent. My manager afterwards told me not to serve him a second beer and luckily he only drank about 2/3s of his first one and left. My concern is did I serve someone who wasn't capable of drinking alcohol? If I had denied him the drink, would I be discriminating him in any way? I understand a bar patron can refuse to serve any patron for pretty much any reason, but would this reason be discriminatory based? Georgia, USA TLDR; mentally handicapped guy came to my bar and I served him, did I do the right thing? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 02:00 AM PST I'm on a fifteen hour contract but have been working six day weeks as we're understaffed with just four of us, we have a part-timer on our 'team' who's on a 22-26 hour contract, they used to be manager until it proved too stressful. The manager has stated that if I don't beat the part-timer, who's more experienced, then he's going to fire me. No ifs, no buts. He's currently ten pounds behind me in sales and I'm not back at work until the 28th. I've been with the company for over a year, and they are aware that I'm autistic and suffer from manic depression. Like, actually suicidal. Every day is a miracle in itself that I'm still here. What can I do about this threat? Should I be taking this higher up? The job is stressful, it's seriously affecting my mental health and I know I probably shouldn't be working in retail in the first place what with my preexisting condition. [link] [comments]  |
| Someone added me on snapchat, says he "plays with" his 7 year old brother Posted: 23 Dec 2018 03:41 AM PST In Australia. 'm gay, and have my snapchat username in my tinder and instagram bio. A 17 year old male that I do not know added me, and asked if I'm into young. I asked how young, and he said he "plays with" his 7 year old brother, and sent a photo of the two of them (an innocent cute photo). I told him that's way too young, he said the kid likes it, I said that the kid doesn't know any better. I tried asking for clarification on what he meant by "plays with" and he just said if I'm not into it it's all g, he's just looking for someone to come play with him and his brother. I saved all the messages except for the photo as he asked that I didn't. What can I do in this situation? I don't know who he is, or how serious the situation is (though it sounds legit). I only know the general city he is in and potentially his first name (if that's real), and have no other information other than that. I can't morally just say "okay good luck finding someone", because eventually older men could find out and offer money to come play. I can't leave this. What can I legally do to ensure this kid isn't abused by his older brother for many years to come? [link] [comments]  |
| What happens if a child is bitten by a vaccinated dog on the owner’s private property? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 06:36 AM PST My parents have an asshole Chihuahua who hates me. I have tried to make friends multiple times. Sometimes it's good, sometimes he attacks me but has never broken the skin until now. Two days ago he bit me on the hand (shockingly hard for a small dog, there's broken skin and bruises) after jumping into my lap while wagging his tail. Yesterday he snuck into my room and pissed all over my suitcase and bathroom bag. My parents think it's hilarious and won't discipline the dog, assuming I must have done something (I'm an animal lover who's only been bitten by one other dog ever as a very young child), not true. So when this shithead dog bites a child, what are the legal repercussions the victim's family will likely take? What will my parents be required to do or fulfill? They are the type that would seek legal council and go to court to prevent this dog from getting put down. My parents are moving from the country to a neighborhood soon with a ton of kids in the area. Dog is vaccinated if this changes things. Edit: they are located in Texas. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 08:02 AM PST I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped me with suggestions. It turns out everything is going to be ok. My ex found out it was me and he came over and got his car back. He was really mad but decided to forgive me. We figured it would be best if I just came clean with the police instead of them finding out first. The detective was very nice, and said I wasn't going to be in trouble. I'll be going in tomorrow to make a statement and sign some documents so he can close out the case. Original Text: A friend of mine recommended I post here. This is my first time on reddit so apologies if I'm not doing this right. So last night after work me and some friends got drunk and we very stupidly went over to my ex boyfriend's home and I stole his car with the spare key I still had. Now I regret it and want to return it, but he said that he had already called the police. I know I'm an idiot so please don't tell me what I already know. What should I do? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 09:30 AM PST I am a part time cashier at a chain grocery store in Florida. I was diagnosed with excersize induced asthma but can safely participate in physical activity when if I use my inhaler 15 minutes before engaging in the activity. As a cashier one of my responsibilities is to gather shopping carts from the lot during down time. When asked to do carts, I ask to be allowed time to use my inhaler before starting the task. My manager tells me that "carts need to be done immediately before another rush of customers come through." Often, this results in breathing problems. If my breathing problems progress to a full on asthma attack at work is there anything I can do about it legally? [Edit:] I hadn't considered that my asthma is actually a disability. Thanks for the suggestions about taking it to corporate with a reasonable accommodation request! Also for those of you commenting on the fact I should use my pump preemptively, the symptoms associated with albuterol don't feel good and I try to use it as little as possible. [link] [comments]  |
| How to deal with a pedophile that I’m related to Posted: 22 Dec 2018 11:05 PM PST Hey reddit. A couple months ago, I (13 at the time) was close to my sister's husband (24). Me and my sister(20something) were close too. The previous week we spent a vacation at Universal Studios Florida. I had an amazing time and I didn't expect anything to happen. We stayed at a hotel with a pool, and every night my brother, oldest sis(OS) and sister's husband (sh) would go to this pool to wind down. Nothing happened on these pool trips, except me feeling a little off by the way SH would treat me. So, I was in a bathing suit most nights for SH to see. At this point, me, SH, and OS were very close. We had a lot in common, and I would have considered myself their friend and family. I wouldn't have expected anything to happen. I made plans with them to stay at their house the next summer, so I could have a little away time from my "overbearing" parents. The plane ride home, I asked SH to let me use his drawing tablet. He always let me use it, and he gave me a lot of unnecessary gifts. I don't know if this was grooming. He let me use it, but he said he had something to show me first. He pulled up a long document. The first sentence was something along the lines of "Please don't tell anybody about this letter," which should have been a red flag, but I thought it must have been some rules for staying at their house next summer. (OS said I could get high, because she doesn't believe in weed being illegal) I was wrong. Very wrong. It was a love letter. It started off like an appreciation letter, but it wasn't. One of the lines specifically said "I know it's not normal for adults like me to want a relationship with people of your age, but I want to know if you feel the same." I had to read it three times to make sure i wasn't dreaming. Unfortunately, I wasnt. I told a friend (14M) about the situation about 10 minutes after it happened. He helped me calm down. I have told 4 other friends since then. The following days, I stayed in my room. I didn't talk to anybody because I was disgusted at myself. Labor day weekend, I was having panic attacks every day because my parents made plans to see OS and SH. I didn't know what to do. I go to therapy every other weekend. I told my therapist that I really didn't want to go to OS's house over the weekend. I explained it like, "I don't feel comfortable around him anymore. He gave me a letter." I wasn't yet comfortable telling them what was in the letter. My mom called OS, and OS said it was just a "misunderstanding ", and the letter was just a "friendly appreciation letter." I explained the whole situation to my mother and she let me stay at my Aunt's house for the weekend. I should add: OS knew everything. She was the one who recommended to SH that he let his feelings out and told him to tell me. She acknowledged that it was a crush when she tried to calm me down after the situation. I have stayed at my Aunt's almost every time my family went to OS's house. The one time I didn't, I stayed at home with my 18y/o sister. The only one who doesn't know about the whole situation in my immediate family is my brother (17) and oldest brother (20) who is currently in another state. The problem is, they might be coming for Christmas. I don't think I can file a lawsuit or something in 2 days, but I never want them near me. SH made me feel disgusting, and he made me untrusting of almost every adult in my life, even my own father. What can I sue him for and/or can I file a restraining order? TL;DR: sister's husband (24) gave me(13 att) a love letter, and i don't want him near me ever again. thank you so much, reddit edit: i've told my parents everything about the letter and how it made me feel.

| Another business with the same name Posted: 23 Dec 2018 04:57 AM PST After choosing a name for a new for profit nationwide brand, a non-profit organization doing business in one city with the same name showed up. The non-profit has an "s" making the name plural and although they serve the same demographic, their mission is very different from that of our company. Although there will be a bit of an uphill trek with clearing up confusion for the end user, clear and concise branding & marketing will be key. What other concerns should be explored? Are there any legal ramifications ore restrictions agains using the same name in a singular vs plural, ie. neighbor vs neighbors [link] [comments]  |
| Customer is trying to sue over sickness from sausages consumed almost 2 years ago Posted: 23 Dec 2018 09:24 AM PST Hello Reddit, I own a butcher shop here in Dublin, Ireland. I just received a solicitor's letter (lawyer's letter) on behalf of one of my customers. I will refer to my customer as their client. The letter claims that their client consumed sausages from my store on the 29th January 2017 and was subsequently hospitalised as a result. The letter claims that as a result their client suffered personal injury, loss and damage. The letter states that the solicitor awaits upon me to admit liability to their client for the pain loss damage and inconvenience caused. Can I just ignore and not admit? We had no other cases and no inspections in reaction to their client's hospital visit. They say I have 7 days to admit or the appropriate injury board application shall be issued and served against me seeking damage for our clients losses. The letter finishes by requesting that I confirm that I am the correct defendant in the matter and that no issue will arise in relation to same. Their client has no proof of purchase. Seems like someone wants some Christmas money.. Do you recommend I just ignore? Alll Answers Welcom [link] [comments]  |
| I've just been falsely accused of Domestic Violence!? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 10:13 AM PST Quick backstory. Earlier this year I got my girlfriend pregnant. I asked her to marry me a few months later she said yes. I thought we were in love. Come around September she breaks up with me and tries to give up our (unborn) son up for adoption. I didnt want to give him up for adoption so I got an attorney to help me establish paternity and to get custody of my child once he was born. She was still adamant about giving him up for adoption until maybe 2 days before our 1st court date. This court date was filed as an emergency court hearing because I wanted to establish custody and paternity before he was born. The 1st court date was denied the same day we were supposed to show up. Afterwards I tried to talk to her to try and come up with a plan for a 50/50 arrangement. We both were able to talk and get a small idea on how things would work out for the first few months of his life. I asked my lawyer to write up this agreement on paper. She then denies the entire agreement. At this point I was just thinking then we will have to just wait until our next court date in mid January. But then. Last night I got a letter saying that I'm being charged for domestic violence and that there is a temporary restraining order on me. I have never laid a hand on anyone. I am a man of good character. I am wondering what steps do I need to take to make sure my life isn't ruined by this. I've already sent a email to my attorney with the letter attached and everything. Is there anything else I should do? I live in California [link] [comments]  |
| Step-daughter was molested by her father and we need help. Posted: 22 Dec 2018 05:05 PM PST Last June my step-daughter (8) was institutionalized for sexual aggression toward babies and toddlers. She has touched at least 4 children that we know of. While at the hospital she made her first disclosure that her father molested her. Since then she has made more disclosures of child pornography, fondling of her and him, as well as watching regular porn with her father. She has told CPS, forensic interviewers, counselors, and doctors of what he did to her and that they've done. We won full custody of the children in November and the police have an investigation going on but no charges have been brought against him. We live in IL and was told that because my daughter is safe that she isn't a priority by the detective. The father was granted Supervised visitation and phone calls until the investigation was closed but we sought an EPO (Emergency Protective Order) suggested by the detective after hearing her forensic interview and was granted it until Jan 2nd. The father's family is protecting him and he is evading being served the EPO. I have a family lawyer but I'm financially tapped out and can't afford him anymore. The father is filing an emergency custody because we didn't show for visitation today because of the EPO. (Oklahoma laws states that the EPO isn't in effect until served) IL laws says it's in effect immediately once the judge signs the order. What can I do to protect my daughter? To get a lawyer with no money? To push the police to file charges? I am at loss and need help or direction. We are seeking treatment and counseling for her and the family. Thank you.

| Car Insurance Company Moving Our Vehicle Without Our Consent- Missouri Posted: 23 Dec 2018 11:40 AM PST Earlier this month, my husband and children were involved in a major auto accident. Our vehicle was totaled, and it was deemed not our fault (the guy rear ended my husband going 70mph when my husband was executing a turn). The car was totaled. We have not been impressed with the guys insurance company. Our vehicle was towed and we were told to not empty our belongings from the vehicle. One day, we drove by the tow yard and our car wasn't there anymore. The insurance company came and moved our vehicle to a car part lot almost 2 hours from our house without informing us or getting our consent. They are now telling us that until we settle, we are footing the bill for the car being at the new place it was taken. Obviously our car would have ended up somewhere once we settled, but is this legal? We don't feel we should be charged for our car being somewhere we didn't authorize. If this is a common legal practice, then fine. I'm just trying to understand this process. Thanks for any insight. [link] [comments]  |
| Websites are using my Wedding photos to sell items Posted: 23 Dec 2018 02:16 AM PST Hi, JustDuane from London, England There are two websites in question DHGate & AliExpress. Both of these sites are advertising dresses for sale using photos that were taken for my wedding. Most of the photos are exactly as they were from the photographer however one of them is clearly one that was taken on the day. So I doubt the photographer knows about this and the photos were taken straight from social media. I have had three items taken down on DHGate but there are a lot more and I have had no luck getting into contact with anyone on AliExpress. I'm not very bright but any advice would be greatly appreciated EDIT: added location [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Dec 2018 07:50 PM PST these messages were received from the 13th to the 22nd of December 2018 New York Most if not all the videos on this person's page we're not his creation and were taken from smaller pages without credit or promotion. After seeing one of my videos posted I commented asking for him to remove it. After he didn't reply I submitted a copyright claim through Instagram. Now his page has been taken down and he is now contacting me saying he'll never do it again but the thing is that so many of these pages exist on Instagram. I also know of content Creator who work very hard with little to no recognition and get their work stolen like this all the time. The people who run these large pages make a living off of the hard work of lesser know creators and get away with it because filing for ownership of the copyright is a lengthy process. r/legal advice what do I do going forward? This person keeps contacting me. Edit: The owner responded to this post and you can see his response below. [link] [comments]  |
| [CO] Retaliation for requesting on time paychecks Posted: 23 Dec 2018 09:02 AM PST I have worked at my company for a number of years now, and during this time I have been paid late more often than not. There is a clause in our employee handbook that states that the company has up to 5 days to pay us, and that they are not responsible by any financial obligations missed by late payment. Most of my paychecks are a few days late, and this has apparently been standard practice for the few decades this company has existed. There have never been more than a handful of employees at this company, and there is is no HR. We have a generally pretty lax schedule and we are allowed to flex our time and take appointments(start at 9:30, leave at 5:30 for example), although our PTO is pretty nonexistent for salaried employees. We are encouraged to work overtime and weekends for emergencies. There was recently an emergency where I worked over a weekend, which also coincided with a weekend pay date. I didn't think much of it, usually glad to help, and figured my pay would be there Monday. I come into work Monday and my pay is still not there, and does not show up until the following day. My coworkers are pissed about it, and we have actually had some turn over in the past because of this, so I decide to look into it. I called the Department of Labor for advice and my husband talked to a lawyer at his work, both agree the late payments are super illegal. I write my boss telling him that we are unhappy with being paid late, the specific ways it is causing us financial harm, and the legal issues with late pay I have had explained to me by the DoL. The next day my boss basically sat us all down and threw a fit. He apparently understood our troubles, insisted we never mentioned it being a problem, understood our frustrations as he had been paid late for decades... but it was totally our CEO not understanding how payroll works and he's really offended that we didn't come to him verbally and this could have been fixed so easy if it were a problem. He talks to us all individually, and seems particularly mad at me for writing an email and being 'so formal' because we're a 'cool company'. He mentions my flex schedule and wanting to start holding me to a strict 9-5 and monitoring my appointments, since that is apparently fair since I want to hold the company accountable to paying me on time. I don't care about my schedule at all, but it is legal for this company to start treating me different because I formally asked to be paid on time? They said they don't want to terminate me because I brought up this issue, but what are my rights in an at-will state if they do terminate me for some reason? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 07:11 AM PST What the title says. Friend found a stray on Wednesday night. We've done everything to find the owner. Huge social media campaign, Craigslist, called the police and animal control, and took him to the vet to check for a chip. He is chipped, which considers him as "identifiable" but it hasn't produced any results. I called the vet the next day and was told they had no updates, there was nothing more they could do, and we could either continue to hold him, or surrender him to a shelter. I intend to keep him if the owner doesn't show by Wednesday night. NY law says they get 7 days when he's considered identifiable. Do I have any legal obligation if they show after that? If they seem decent and there's a reason there were zero leads in the last week, he'd of course go back to them. But what about otherwise? [link] [comments]  |
| I'm being threatened because I unknowingly gave someone an STD. Posted: 22 Dec 2018 11:57 PM PST So backstory. I [18] had sex with this guy, we were using a condom, the condom broke. He said he was clean but I didn't want to risk anything. I was super scared about getting HIV (I'm a gay male). I'm new to sex in general and I was terrified that I was going to get this life long disease. So I got tested for HIV, and while I was there I completed a chlamydia test as well, just as a formality. Test result for HIV came back negative, thank god, and I moved on. Important to note I had not yet recieved the results from the chlamydia test, but as I was showing no symptoms at all it wasn't even a thought in my mind. A couple days later I had sex. Neither of us came, there was no anal penetration, it sucked, the guy left early. Couoley days after THAT, I got a call saying I have chlamydia. This was a complete, COMPLETE shock to me. I experienced no symptoms and it literally never occurred that chlamydia was even a possibility for me. Anyways, I received treatment and immediately texted the guy who's condom broke, and the other guy I had sex with (let's call him Richard). This is where it gets tricky. This was all over a month ago. I texted Richard and got no reply for over a month. Suddenly tonight he responds asking who it was. I sent him the picture from my grindr (where we met) and he started freaking out. He got angry and wanted to know how I got it. I explained the whole situation with the guy whose condom broke. I didn't lie. I told him I got tested, it came back negative, I assumed I was clean, that was stupid of me and its my fault. I apologized several times and kept repeating that I made a mistake and I'm really sorry that I was ignorant to how STDs work. He got really, really fucking mad. He started attacking me personally, saying the sex was bad and stuff, and how he's going to sue me if he contracts anything. He kept being like "how are you going to make this right?" and I was so confused. I don't know what he wanted me to do? I sent him the address and hours of where I got tested. I explained that it only cost 20 dollars and the treatment was free. He just kept being such a dick. It was frustrating because I 100% took responsibility. Right from the get go I was completely honest and told him the total truth, even though it looked bad on me, and I kept reiterating that I was sorry and I made a mistake. I genuinely feel bad. I would never have had sex if I knew I was at risk for any std. I was stupid for not realizing that I was at risk, but in my mind there was a 0% chance I had any disease (again, this was a stupud mistake and I regret it). The thing that really concerns me is how he threatened me. He said my "daddy and mommy won't be happy to hear about this" which made my skin crawl. He said he knows my name and address. He said he would spread pictures of me online as an std spreader. When I told him the treatment is free he said he would pay full price and then make me pay for it. I feel like this is so malicious, flexing that he has my address, mentioning my parents, threatening to spread pictures of me online, and it fucking scares me. Like what do I do if he spreads pictures of me online? How could I stop him? He has one of my nudes. My face isn't in it but he has one of my nudes. I don't want that online. Like he forreal threatened me with revenge porn, right? Like what do I do? I don't want to escalate the situation but I'm so afraid of what he's capable of. Important to note he has a fiance that neglected to tell me about. Which is why he's so freaked out about potentially having an std. Also important to note that neither of us came and chlamydia is not transmittable through salive. I told him because I didn't want to infect anyone and if there was any risk I wanted my partners to be aware, no matter how small the risk. Here are some pictures of our texts. It doesn't include the beginning of the convo but it shows most of the important stuff. I'm so young man. I was a fucking idiot thinking I was clean and I wanted to right that wrong. And it backfired horribly. And I'm so scared about what's going to happen. Can he actually sue me? What will happen if he spreads pictures of me? I'm so scared. Edit: also I'm in North Dakota.

| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 08:17 AM PST He says the reason they can't divorce is because if they do, she'll lose his health insurance coverage. I know this can be mandated in the divorce decree and know people who have done this. I believe he is using that because she has significant health issues and will feel vulnerable and submit to what he wants. They have been married 22 years and raised two children who are now young adults. One of the kids is mentally challenged and may need to live at home for the foreseeable future. She has not worked and has no formal education. He is a white collar professional and may be seeking his Masters degree. He moved out a few months ago to a higher end apartment, and still pays the family house mortgage and utilities. He told her that their health insurance hasn't sent their FSA card yet, but the policy started in July. There should be $1500 on the card and she is paying for her expensive medication copays out of the "allowance" he gives her to pay the bills. He is adamant about moving forward in life, yet does not want a legal divorce. I believe this is because the current "allowance" is far less than what a judge may mandate if divorced. She has reluctantly agreed to speak with an attorney and is coming to terms with not being able to trust what he says, and that he does not have her best interest in mind. It seems to me that she is afraid of rocking the boat and losing her home and health insurance if she challenges him. In the state of NH, what would be the general divorce laws around this type of situation? She needs to know her health and welfare are secure and not subject to what he feels month to month.

| [JACKSONVILLE, FL] Step mother recieved the wrong injection following post surgery appointment. Posted: 23 Dec 2018 10:59 AM PST My stepmother recently had leg surgery and went a physician for some follow up shots. She was given the options of: a shot every 3 months, I think cortisone. And a series of 3 shots of some sort of "gel" administered every week. Insurance only covered the first series of cortisone and not the gel, so she opted for that one. There was a fire alarm as the shot was being prepared. After that distraction the shot was administered and my stepmother proceeded to check out of the office. She was told to come back the following week. Fast forward to the next week and as my stepmother checks in she is informed that she has a $350 balance from the previous visit. After a slight rigmarole it was discovered that she was given the wrong injections during her previous visit. The office manager and another nurse confirmed my stepmother's denial of this specific procedure. The office then insisted that she be charged, and naturally she declined and left the office. I guess I'm just here for information and opinions on what she should do. [link] [comments]  |
| Disclosing juvenile adjudication withheld on future licensing and job applications Posted: 23 Dec 2018 06:34 AM PST When I was a juvenile, I was arrested, in Florida, for drug related charges and the result was an adjudication withheld. I have done a lot of growing up since the incident and my adjudication withheld has not surfaced during my military service as well as numerous other positions that required a background check. However, I was recently accepted to a Florida medical school, and I cannot help but be concerned for how to, or if I should, report my past indiscretions on future licensing and job applications as a physician. Although I currently live in Florida, I am unsure which state I will attend residency and begin my future practice. I'd like to keep all of my options open. In the past, I have not reported my juvenile record on applications because I was only asked if I was convicted of a crime; however, a friend (also in the medical field) is applying for positions as a provider at a Florida hospital and the application asked if they had ever been convicted, charged, or received a verdict of adjudication withheld. Would I have to answer yes to that question, or is my juvenile record protected from employers and state licensing agencies from gaining access? Also, is there anything I can do to ensure I will not have to worry about this incident coming up again? Thank you in advanced! [link] [comments]  |
