In most jurisdictions, she will still be charged with DUI. Talk to a lawyer who practices DUI in your area right away to get some guidance to get through this.
custody
In 2004 my boyfriend at the time and I had a daughter. In February he took her and fled the state without my consent. I have never been able to locate him. In Dec 2007 I received child support papers on my daughter filed by her dad's brother. I finally was able to find out that my ex-boyfriend my incarcerated, so he signed over gaurdianship to his brother. they never tried to locate me. the question I have is can he do that without my consent? Also he is not listed on the birth certificate. Do I have the legal right o go and get her now that I know where she is?

I am currently employed with an employer that I feel is not running their business or treating their employees ethically. The employer is a franchised business - with the owner's daughter being our manager. It is considered "at will" employment. Most employees are hourly. I am the only salaried employee. We employee front desk workers and massage therapists.
Currently the manager doesn't require our employees to take breaks. No one ever gets a break, or clocks out for a break, including me. Even when the employee works more than 6 hours. There are no breaks for 4 hour intervals. At the time of employment, massage therapists document that they need a 1 hour break for every 3-4 hours worked. Sometimes these breaks are not honored, and only a 30 minute break is given. Our manager manually goes into time clock system and clocks employees out of unpaid breaks that are never taken. For our front desk girls, she has threatened to deduct register shortages from people's paychecks. She has also threatened to deduct any accidental property damage (overfilling a water fountain) from employee paychecks. I have a photograph of the message in which she threatened this. Therapists are often promised free services for extending their shifts, only to have it deducted from their paycheck when they later take her up on the offer.
Employees are fired without proper documentation. I have seen over 15 people leave and/or fired in the past 6 months that I have been there. Almost all of these firings have little to no documentation. We have had several cases of job abandonment because employees are fed up. One male (a minority) was fired on the spot when a client alleged that he touched her inappropriately. No company policy was followed with his firing - he was simply let go. There is not even a record of the client in our database anymore. I have heard the manager tell other hiring managers "no" to minorities because the owner does not like them. I have also seen people fired simply because they were not liked, right before a $300 retention bonus that was promised to them.
Also, as an assistant manager I am required to attend a corporate training, funded by the franchise owner. Our owner will not send me. He says "No, not until we hire more therapists", and after that is complete "No, not until your sales numbers are higher." There is a always an excuse.
What are my rights here? What are our employees rights? I am fed up with this mistreatment.
