The Attorney General

[Archives1]

Hey Guys;

I have a question for some mature and wise people that may have knowledge on our countries attorney general system.

Christmas is almost here and while i want to celebrate the holidays - im stuck in a personal situation that still hasnt been quite yet resolved. The situation involved possible public entity misconduct and being put in a situation where i was put on the wrong psychological medications which left me mentally incapacited during a personal situation.

Anyway, i didnt want to take it to the Attorney General but i was left with no other choice. Because of the situation, i found the truth in my faith - and i met some absolutely wonderful people along the way.

However, Christmas is coming and i sent in my report in the begining of November - and i still havent heard anything from the representing state agency. All i want is a resolution, yet instead of directly reaching out between the other parties - third parties are possibly indirectly trying to communicate with myself which leads me to legal risk.

Im a good person, and its not something i want to pursue - but its something i have to for my own personal itegrity. From what i was advised in the middle of november; my case was uploaded and were being recieved by a representative and that two weeks after that i would be recieving a reach out by the representative to go over my case. Its almost the end of December and i havent heard anything.

However, from everything ive gathered the agency may have reached out to the other party whom may have said they would resolve it - but yet i still feel set up with no resolution.

Maybe thing's have been backed up due to the holidays, and the stress of another personal situation has been weighing on myself as well. It just leaves me stressed out which is even worsening the symptoms of my bladder. I feel like im being put through physical Hell for something thats not my fault.

Has anybody ever had luck with the attorney general? I cant disclose the details obviously, but i just want to see if anybody else has any experiences with them - and maybe the New Year things will finally calm down and life will finally be peaceful.

Thank you guys for everything; obviously im not looking for any legal advice - just personal experiences to put my mind at ease.

God bless the NAFC.

Sincerely,
HC

If I’ve learned anything over the years it’s that the bureaucracy truly takes its time.

But, the other thing I’ve learned is that being proactive is always best. State and federal agencies will sit on something until you talk to that right person.

I’d recommend calling the offices you need to, being super super polite to who picks up to inquire about your case and that you are just looking for some updates and what to expect. The overly polite on the phone gets you very very far.

The government is very slow and in today's culture, not good. So let is go. I have a worksmen comp case where they screwed up and there is not way to hold them accountable. They look at me and tell me-too late-go away-we are not responding to you anymore. So I am letting it go and going on with my life. I am writing the worksmen's comp doctor a letter telling him what I think the issues are and see what he saids. After that I must let it go ocmpletely. It is awful, heart breaking and very sad. I am on my own and must accept stuff, even though wrong, I try to get my stuff in where I can. The cuture also is changing terrible. People do not wnat to work anymore.

HC,
I agree with Exploring Resources on reaching out to the AG’s office and just asking for a status update. You may want to ask if there is any other information they need from you to assist their review.

Another tactic is to seek out your local state representative and ask them to make an inquiry on your behalf. Again convey you are only seeking a status update.

Good luck and let us know what happens.

I tried getting our representavie involoved as well as our state senator-who doesn't even respond. I had two lawyers quite on me. Too hard-I need someone with fire in the belly. There is no one there anmore to do this stuff.

I feel like they set us up for failure in today's society. With automated phone call directories and representatives who respond with automated email responses. I feel like even with the advent of technology - we are taking one step forward and two steps back.

What ever happened to the local union halls where representatives were there in person handling complaints and concerns? In my own dive into history, I feel like a less connected world made for a more connected society.

I'm sorry your workmens comp case fell through I encourage you to write to your doctor. We do need more people with fire in there belly - and more of a clear way to handle situations. You sound like a good person Barbara from the replies you've sent in my posts.

Better days are always ahead. Prayers.

Sincerely,
HC

Thank you, Itry to be-My health was really affected by this injury and lack of proper care. I wonder if the case manager realizes all the crap-he told me the first time I talked with him that people are trying to get away with stuff all the time. I was being honest-no more-I will go though medicare from now on. It is all teh government anyway-such a wast and too many dumb rules writeen by burcrats trying to stop people from cheating-I did not do things in a timely maner because there was too much to do. I did not see the doctor at first for they did not have the rule in place where you had to, when I finally did-the momth peiod was up for finding devloped new conditions. it is jsut awful, you sond like a nice person also. Our medical curltre is not what it was. Too much bull shit stuff where smart people are not goinginto the field. They can't make anymore and the insurance rates are out of site for them. O fcourse they make mistakes-we all do-they also only make a dollar now on medicare patients wher they use to make 10. It is just awful. Good Luck-I did bring about some change-tryignto bring about a little more. I hope sometimes to keep the case open until the adminstration changes to make some more changes.

Dealing with government bureaucracy requires a mix of patience and persistence. Especially right now, you have to deal with a lot of delays, but you also have to keep following up. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, after all.

My suggestion is to call the office responsible and find out a person who is responsible for pushing your car forward. They probably can't make it move forward quickly because of regulations and waiting on others, but they're the ones responsible for moving it forward when the time comes. Once you've found that person, follow up with them with a polite phone call or email every couple of weeks, maybe even every week.

In each communication, let them know when you'll follow up next, then stick to that. Be polite, and be extremely nice and personable - if they chat a little bit, find out about them and tell them about you, so that there's a personal connection. What you're trying to do is to put a human face on yourself, rather than just a disembodied voice on the phone. It's easy to ignore a random person, but it's harder to ignore Frank who has the cute dog who's excited for Christmas, it whatever personal details you can slip in there.

What our electronic interconnectedness has lost is human contact, and much of empathy is based on that. If you can make them see your humanity, you'll force them to be empathetic towards you, and that will induce then to work harder for you.

Also, keep in mind that a physical letter is worth about a hundred emails. If you can send a case manager a thank you card, it's almost guaranteed to get their attention and make them remember you. Put a photo in the card - people have trouble throwing away photos, and it will help to put a human face on your case.

Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. But it's worth a shot.

Yeah, I think I'm going to call the office after the Holidays. I haven't been assigned a case manager yet; however even if it has been assigned to state or federal authorities; my best bet is to just get a status update on the situation.

I unfortunately cannot send in any more information or data applicable until a state or federal investigator handles the situation. I sent in a plethora of information which should be enough basis to go on so any new information is null and trite.

The holidays are here so being were dealing with government agencies I'm going to wait until after the new years to do a status report.

However once a case manager is assigned the card idea sounds really kind and warm. Even a belated Merry Christmas sounds good!

Thank you guys for putting my mind at ease. You guys are the best!

Sincerely,
HC

“Happy Holidays!” is better than “Merry Christmas!” Not everyone is Christian. We have people from 223 countries - almost every country on the planet - here in this great country of ours. That means we also have people of every religion and spirituality in our country. You wouldn’t want to say “Merry Christmas” to a Buddhist or a Jew, for instance - that could really piss someone off. But “Happy Holidays” is safe and works well! Every faith has at least one holiday at this time of year.

I have no knowledge on the subject but I can wish you the very best of luck and know that we care on this site. I’m still working on a causative diagnosis that I hope to have after I see the new doctor in December 30. Happy and joyous holidays for now.

“Happy Holidays!” is better than “Merry Christmas!”

It would not offend me if a Buddhist wished me a happy "Gong" or whatever they might like to say. Regardless, I would take it as an expression of goodwill from them. I am also expressing goodwill towards that person when I say “Merry Christmas".

When I say, “Merry Christmas", I am glorifying my God and Savior, Jesus Christ who was crucified for both of our sins and was raised from the dead.

Rhetorical question:
If you had to guess, which spirit do you suppose came up with the counterfeit term, "Happy Holidays":
Satin or God's Holy Spirit

I have always said “Merry Christmas" and always will. Praise be to God!

Those of you that have contacted your elected officials, with little or no response. I hope you remember that on election day. And before that, tell all your friends and relatives. Research the ones that you will vote for. Make sure what you hear and read is the truth.
It is not much to offer but it is about all we can do.

I can tell you with certainty that the overwhelming majority of elected officials are self centered and out for themselves.
WE ARE ONLY THERE TO PAY THE BILL !

This holiday is Christmas. It isn't Easter or Thanksgiving or Halloween. It's Christmas. When it is a holiday for another faith, it is appropriate to say, 'Happy Hanukah, or Ramadan' or whatever is being celebrated, but right now, it is Christmas. Do I need to repeat myself? Do you, Snow, behave this way when it is one of those other holidays? I'm sure you ignore the other celebrations if you don't choose to partake, but tell me- do you honestly believe that you, among the many millions of other people who don't celebrate Christ's birth are going to succeed at getting others to not use the word Christmas? Do you honestly, for some reason, think that you are going to change the world, just because you have decided that you don't believe? In addition to what I've mentioned in an earlier post, I am asking that you stop this line of hateful response to those of us who know that God is real and that He is who and what He claims to be.

Getting a little harsh. I understand every one’s point from Jeff’s to Snows.

Snows point being that we have a diverse group of people, so to be inclusive it’s best to say happy holidays. Other points being that there are specific holidays that people celebrate.

No need for anyone to get hostile on a board like this, I don’t think anyone is trying to change the world here, just their diaper lmao.

I don’t think it’s worth getting offended over either argument of whether you say merry Christmas or happy holidays, the point is to be open and welcoming to all regardless.

@snow Hello
Christmas and true that he and religious but in Europe and a public holiday and remains a "Christmas party" tradition so everyone accepts the formula because for children it is a joy for gifts
despite everything I wish you a happy holiday

I don't understand why someone would see a happy Christmas or a happy holidays and get upset over the second word.

The first word is the important one. Happy. A wish for good things. A gift of happiness. A promise of joy. To a stranger. To a loved one. To everyone.

If only we could give happiness every day.
