    1. Protecting people who volunteer to lead/ work at nonprofit corporations: Volunteers needn't worry. We went over the several levels of protection the law provides for volunteers — and what the definition of a "volunteer" is for these purposes anyway. 2. A tale of 2 sisters hurt in a Bar Room fracas — and how the bar owner's mishandling of the case cost him easily twice as much as it might have otherwise -- along with licensing problems going forward. 3. Another law suit seeking "inconvenience damages" for the hassle of dealing with police, insurance companies, appraisers, and body shops after a car accident — and what this Judge did with the claim. Is this the death knell for "inconvenience damages" claims, or was it just poorly presented?

    In this episode, we explore a unique fender bender case that highlights not just financial loss, but also the often overlooked issue of inconvenience damages, covering the hassle of insurance claims, repairs, and general disruption. Listeners call in with questions, including one about vehicle safety concerns following a faulty garage repair, and another seeking tips on buying used cars, particularly from private sellers who flip them. We also discuss a case of employee embezzlement involving template fraud, which led to a civil lawsuit for theft and conversion.

    Today, we talk about a unique case where a passionate tree lover sues a town and its tree warden over the removal of a cherished tree. We explore the legal avenues available when local authorities decide to cut down trees and explain the differences between classical and statutory agreements. We also tale listener calls, including one about a probate court issue and another concerning the legal implications of driving while experiencing vestibular migraines and taking prescription medication that may cause wooziness.
