If I fire my attorney in a civil case and being the Plaintiff , can I ask the judge to extend to aquire new?
The extension is called a ';continuance.'; You can ask and the court may or may not grant it. If the judge thinks you are doing it just for delay, or if there have been other continuances, or if you wait until the last minute and the other side has witnesses who have been inconvenienced, then the judge will probably deny the continuance. If you do it well ahead of time, and give some good reason for your decision, and it does not hurt the other side, then the judge will probably grant it.
Is stalking someone a criminal case or civil case?
Thank You. By the Way i am not stalking some one i am doing homework on www.canlii.caIs stalking someone a criminal case or civil case?
It's a criminal matter, usually a misdemeanor, but in 13 states, stalking is a felony.Is stalking someone a criminal case or civil case?
Criminal because the person poses a threat to anybody in society because of their obsession. Although if the person were to report being stalked it could lead to a civil case if the person strongly believes they need compensation for worrying all the time about being stalked.
It is probably both, depending upon the jurisdiction. It could be prosecuted as a criminal offense, and the victim could also sue for civil remedies.
Stalking is a criminal offence and is covered under section 264 of the Criminal Code - Criminal Harassment.
Well, I would hardly call stalking a contract violaton....

Where can I find the judicial process/procedure of a civil and criminal case?
Our teacher gave us some vocabulary words and told us we had to put them in the correct order of how a civil and criminal case would go. We had to made a flow chart out of the words. Some words would be used twice. I just can't find anywhere on the internet where it has the process that takes place in a court... I know it ends in a verdict, but thats all..
Here are the words:
Arraignment
Civil
Defendant
Liability
Subpoena
Injunction
Opening STatement
Complaint
Acquittal
Closing Argument
Discrover
PLea Bargain
Tort
Warrant
Sentence
Answer
Appeal
Criminal
Grand Jury
Verdct
Venue
Information
Diliberation
Summons
Bail
Damages
Indictment
Restraining Order
Booking
Trial
and Preliminary Hearing
NOt all the words have to be used, but I think most of them do, and I have to put each words into either a criminal or civil chart showing the order that a trial goes in....Where can I find the judicial process/procedure of a civil and criminal case?

I received a witness subpoena for a deposition in a civil case, what can I expect when I get there?
either the lawyer or the paralegal will ask a bunch of questions as to what you saw and so on and so forth. usually they ask the same questions different ways several times . takes about an hour. painless and if they think you will help their case they may end up calling you as a witness if it goes to trial. they usually try to settle out of court and if you depo is strong the other side will usually fold and cut their losses.I received a witness subpoena for a deposition in a civil case, what can I expect when I get there?
You will be asked to relate your experience of the event as it pertains to the case and sign the statement. If the case goes to court, you might be asked to testify under oath.

In a civil court case, what does the ';Disposed Date'; mean?
That is resolved, or cleared? Closed?In a civil court case, what does the ';Disposed Date'; mean?
In civil courts the suits are either decreed (includes the partial decree of the claim) or dismissed. These are not disposed. However an interlocutory application filed by any of the party to the lis can be disposed of and the date on which the orders are passed the same is called the disposed date.In a civil court case, what does the ';Disposed Date'; mean?
Yes. All of those.
It's the court's final determination of a lawsuit or criminal charge.

Is this a civil or criminal case, when a medical assistant calls in a Rx for a patient and the patient dies?
The doctor is not in the office. the patient calls the office complaining of pains, the medical assistant calls a perscription in to the pharmacy. later the patient has a allergic reaction, rushed to the hospital and dies, would this be civil case or a criminal case?Is this a civil or criminal case, when a medical assistant calls in a Rx for a patient and the patient dies?
I think the patient should have gone to the emergency room complaining of the pains. People die, I don't see the correlation between alleged neglect and your person dying. How would the medical assistant know? How would the pharmacist know of an allergic reaction? It's unfortunate, but I wouldn't count on becoming rich. Is this a civil or criminal case, when a medical assistant calls in a Rx for a patient and the patient dies?
Possibly both. The criminal side would be dispensing a prescription without a license and practicing medicine without a license.
That is unless we're talking about a nurse-practitioner which is a different story.
As for the civil side, its called negligence.
This is all assuming of course that the doctor did not know anything about it and the assistant was acting on his or her own volition.
Well, to begin with the medical assistant would not be calling in a prescription without an order from the doctor, this would be prescribing without a license. If that actually occurred this medical assistant has a LOT of problems to cope with. This would then become a criminal case.
Could be both really, they could come up with involuntary manslughter or something like that.
Definite civil possibilities too - wrongful death
Criminal.
uh, i THINK it's criminal - negligent manslaughter, maybe.
Need the money eh?

Is there an organization that helps with legal costs for civil rights cases?
My former employer told me, at least twice, to not hire too many blacks and to not put them together at the worksites. I was also told to not hire too many men and to not place them together too much. My coworkers %26amp; I had to work overtime for years without OT compensation : when I complained, I was threatened with termination. I have been slapped in the head, objects thrown at me in anger, etc. I've quit my job and filed both state %26amp; federal complaints.
My former employer, when I turned in my resignation-notice, asked me how much they owed me in OT for the last 3.5 yrs. then shuttled some $ into my direct-deposit bank account.
However, they just brushed me off and refused to do mediation in anything, even after I got an attorney. The attorney says I have a strong case, but thinks the EEOC will not pursue the matter due to low funds for that. If so, I would need $4,500 for the attorney, then he'll take the rest of his fees out of any $ awarded. What org. will help?Is there an organization that helps with legal costs for civil rights cases?
