Enforcement of Rights & Attorney’s Fees
Attorney’s Fees While Enforcing Court Orders.
A party who has been forced to resort to the judicial process to secure compliance with the terms of an order or judgment is entitled to her reasonable attorney fees even absent a showing of inability to pay.
The trial court has no discretion as to whether to award reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in enforcement of its orders, for if the failure to pay was without cause of justification, the award of reasonable attorney fees is mandatory.
Temporary Orders For Support In Divorce Cases
Temporary Orders In Divorce Cases
A petition for dissolution has been filed with the clerk of the circuit court. A summons has issued against the spouse and it has in fact, been properly served. From that point, the respondent has thirty days to file an appearance in the case; otherwise, a default can be entered. Additionally, the respondent needs to file an answer to the petition on file. The respondent may also wish to file a counter-petition to the one filed by the petitioner.
The Best Alternative to Detailed Billing Records of Cell Phones
A number of individuals are also getting more concerned about having their billing records viewed and accessed without their permission. There are already laws and regulations protecting the confidentiality of such documents unless ordered by legal authorities.
Traditionally, cell phone bills contain a lot of useful information regarding all calls made, text messages sent and all SMS activity. You will find everything laid out in very fine detail such as the phone number of the person whom you called or sent a message to, the date and time when conversation or messaging occurred as well as the duration of the call. The system was developed in order to needlessly inform subscribers how they are being charged on a daily basis.

Domain Name Theft
Are you losing visitors to your domain? Are your search engine rankings still yours?
Other people might hijack your search engine rankings and they might steal your web site visitors. The worst thing is that you might not even notice it.
Imagine your domain URL is listed in search engine results on Google, MSN and Yahoo. In the search engine results, most people that click on your domain URL are sent to your website. However, some people that click your domain URL are sent to a totally unrelated website that has nothing to do with your site and although your website domain name URL is displayed in the browser, people see a completely different site that has literally nothing to do with you or your company.

Copyright And Music, The Right Way To Protect Your Rights
Using copyright to protect your music
If you want to get published, or even if you self publish your work, you will be sending copies to your agents, record companies, or other individuals. Can you trust those who get hold of your work to respect your rights, or will you discover one day that your music is being passed off as someone else’s work, while you miss out on the royalties.
Having seen my own work turn up in the hands of plagiarists who have claimed it as their own, I now take copyright very seriously, and would urge anyone to follow these simple steps.
Hijacked! What To Do When Your Website Is Stolen
Recently while checking the usage statistics for our company website I saw over 2000 “referrals” coming from a particular company. I usually investigate any links with such high numbers (often, it’s as simple an article of ours that someone has placed on their website). What I was shocked to find when viewing this link, was that basically our entire website was duplicated on this site. Our copyrights were removed and replaced with this company’s, and even our logo had changed to this company’s name.
Canadian Passports - Be In The Know Or Prepared To Be Frustrated
If you are planning to apply for a Canadian passport, you need to know the application procedures and the time required to get a passport in order to get it before your upcoming trip. With heightened international security passports are required for travel into territories that once only required valid I.D.
While in-person applications are usually processed in two weeks (this excludes delivery delay), your applications sent via mail or through a receiving agent (Canada Post or Services Canada) may take up to ten weeks. While this is best case scenario, passport application requests are at an all time high and you need to ask your local issuing office what the turnaround time is.
Online Targeting And Harassment
Most internet harassment goes on in chat rooms and newsgroups, also via email. Internet law has tightened up since the early free wheeling days when there were very few controls in place. For example it’s become a federal crime in the US to anonymously “annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person” via internet or other telecommunication systems. So it’s on the books, if people choose to go after the bullies.
Some people do. In a precedent setting case in 2006, a Florida woman, Susan Scheff, successfully sued for defamation over the internet and was awarded $11.3 million. The defendant was unhappy with the referral service offered by the plaintiff and posted complaints and insults on the internet, accusing Ms Scheff of being a”crook” and a “fraud”.
