Ark. AG sues firm claiming to fix credit history

Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel says he has sued a Texas-based company claiming to offer a quick fix for a damaged credit history, and illegally collecting fees in advance.

A news release from McDaniel's office on Tuesday said he had filed suit in federal court at Little Rock against TRW Ventures LLC, three affiliated companies and the owner of all four, Thomas Randall Wells.

The release said TRW represents that the company will remove all negative information from credit reports — even information that is accurate. The release said federal law bars such companies from charging or collecting any fee in advance, but TRW has charged advance fees up to $800.

Grounds for Divorce in Ohio - Sylkatis Law, LLC

A divorce in Ohio is filed when there is typically “fault” by one of the parties and party not at “fault” seeks to end the marriage. A court in Ohio may grant a divorce for the following reasons:
• Willful absence of the adverse party for one year
• Adultery
• Extreme cruelty
• Fraudulent contract
• Any gross neglect of duty
• Habitual drunkenness
• Imprisonment in a correctional institution at the time of filing the complaint
• Procurement of a divorce outside this state by the other party

Additionally, there are two “no-fault” basis for which a court may grant a divorce:
• When the parties have, without interruption for one year, lived separate and apart without cohabitation
• Incompatibility, unless denied by either party

However, whether or not the the court grants the divorce for “fault” or not, in Ohio the party not at “fault” will not get a bigger slice of the marital property.
