[TX] How do I enforce a stay, and can I proceed pro se on my own wrongful-death claim?

Where do I file a motion to stay proceedings pending arbitration under 9 U.S.C. § 3? I filed a related case in a Harris County district court (Texas), and there’s a related arbitration. The judge says she can’t rule on federal law, which I disagree with. Should I appeal in the state appellate court or file in federal court?

[MT] How do I file a construction lien?

I need to file a construction lien in Bozeman, Montana, 59718, and I have filed the “Notice of Claim to File a Lien” but am unsure on the process moving forward. It was suggested to me to seek legal advice. So far, I have filed the Notice with the county recorder, given the notice to the general manager of the property (private apartment complex near college) to pass along, and I need to wait 5 days until I can file the lien. I would like to attach my Notice that has already been filed to make sure things look okay, and to confirm what I need to prepare to file the actual lien. Thank you.

[CA] How do I handle a customer with allergies?

We hold seminars on spirituality and received an email from a student who is attending our event in August 2025. She informed us about a serious allergy she has. We are concerned about the implications of her choosing not to bring an EpiPen in the event of a medical emergency, and how that could affect us or anyone who may need to help her if such an emergency occurs. What should we do — have her sign a waiver or prevent her from attending unless she brings an EpiPen? This is her email: I am planning on attending the Arhatic Yoga retreat in August 2025.My allergy is NOT common, but since you are offering vegetarian options, I thought I should mention it. Anaphylactic shock to grapefruit. Slight irritation to pomelo. Usually, I can smell it a mile away, so I stay clear of citrus mixes just in case. No other citrus gives me a problem, and I love citrus in general!I don’t carry an EpiPen because I am old enough to be aware of what I’m putting in my system most of the time. If it’s my time to go, it’s my time! LOL With my best wishes,

Can police issue a search warrant for my email account?

I received an email from Google stating they received a request for a search warrant for an email I was tied to. This email belonged to my fiancée — it was a personal email she created for work, and when she quit her job, the email was deleted. It seems the employer started a case with the local police department, and I’m looking for a lawyer to find out what the search warrant was about.

[NC] Can I bow-hunt while I’m on conditional discharge?

I am currently on conditional discharge for a low-level felony in Pitt County, NC. In my court documents, it says I cannot possess a weapon, but an article cited on the UNC Chapel Hill law page states that the weapons prohibition is specific to concealable weapons (i.e., Bowie knives, firearms, etc.). I am just wondering if I can hunt this year with my compound bow, as I’m an avid hunter.
