Oof, it’s also extremely unlikely they were withholding taxes for her and depositing them correctly, so if she does claim that employment she’s going to have an unpleasant tax bill next April.

That would be poor legal advice. Payroll is usually first in line in bankruptcy cases, so they would be better off paying people and not having any money left to pay out suits. Plus the suits aren’t going to be completed any time soon, whereas their state department of labor can act more quickly on the payroll issue…

Many states also recognize “constructive dismissal” for unemployment, which is essentially a working condition that’s so shitty a reasonable employee would have to quit. Not being paid certainly qualifies.

How long you have to pay depends on the state. If they are remote employees, it gets a little complicated but it’s often which ever state (location of company or location of employee) has laws more favorable to the employee.

Sure, but that’s just mitigating the unsecured portion of the loan. My point is that auto loans are more like a credit card than a mortgage.

Car loans are not fully secured. If the car is totalled, but worth less than the balance on the loan, you are on the hook for the difference. Whereas in most states (non-recourse states) your mortgage lender cannot pursue you for anything additional once they’ve foreclosed on your house.

As do bankruptcy trustees. (This was BK fraud, not a tax case. She probably would have gotten more jail time for a tax case.)

“a lot of people have compared this hilarious shitshow to ‘Lord of the Flies,’ but that book was about a bunch of little boys during the Cold War crashing against their will on an actually deserted island and surviving for days, maybe even weeks without turning on each other.”

It seems to have been a mix, but mostly attorneys/judges. Of the seven permanent directors:

Hey, once they get remaindered and you rip the covers off to send back, you have to destroy the books anyway. Might as well burn em!

Burst appendix, which may have been accelerated by a kid hitting him in the abdomen multiple times.

It’s a public school. But schools do have a little more latitude to restrict/punish student speech. So it’s not terribly clear cut, one way or the other.

Dallas PD is not involved here - the cop is on a suburban force, and he was arrested by the sherrif’s office.

Small note, Somali people largly speak Somali, not Arabic. Same script, different languages.

Consider the source, though.

This would be fucked up even if they had gotten the right car. There’s no way bondsman and bounty hunters were out looking for a serial killer or something. Any FTA they’re handling wouldn’t have called for this level of shitassery.

Median income in Gary is $27K. She’s not doing too bad.

“someone else died for reasons tied to you being involved with them”

The president can’t pardon him if he’s not convicted for a federal offense. So convict him in state court.

Jean-Ralphio, for sure. Even early seasons Tom wasn’t this dumb.
