Hi, I have a medical malpractice case in which the defendants requested a submission hearing to dismiss with prejudice on the 7th for the 17th. The request was granted. However, their attorney did not send me the notice until the 10th, which does not meet the 10-day requirement. What is the best legal strategy: Ask for a continuance now? (I have a submission hearing to modify deadlines on December 1) OR Don't say anything and, if the judge dismisses the defendants with prejudice, file a motion to set aside the judgment due to lack of required 10-day notice? Please advise.

I filed a petition in small claims court in Texas for a breach of contract - $5k in damages. It is a pretty simple case: We had a contract with a wedding venue, and a few weeks prior to the event, they decided to not renew their lease and cancelled the contract. The defendant attorney has filed an elaborate original answer and denial and motion to abate, and is privately harassing and threatening me to recover $10k in his legal fees. I want to know.

Can I be taken back to my car for seizure? Police report said I was observed getting out of my car. I parked my vehicle and purchased something from the store. I seen the police observing me so I walked down the street on another property away from my vehicle. Two officers flew in at me and they detained me for a Cedar Hill traffic ticket. While confirming they took me to my vehicle, my windows were tinted but his PC was he saw a doobie in plain sight thru the tint I guess. He then tried to get me to tell him how much weed is in the car and I told him I wasn’t knowledgeable over and over. He finds a “felony amount of weed” under the passenger seat and a really old scale. He then puts the money I had on my person ($1,370) with the drugs found in the car for seizure and also tows my car after I said I had insurance for seizure as well. My indictment now says 4oz-2oz instead of the 4oz-5lb charge he initially gave me. Can you point out anything if any? I was charged that day and I was parked at 8102 S Polk St Dallas, TX 75232 United States. The police ran up on me while I was on foot at Waverly Apts 1025 W Wheatland Rd, Dallas, TX 75232.
