- Q. Do I need to attend the status conference meeting on 5/16 if a judgement was filed & divorce will be final in 6/13/23?
- A: Call the courtroom and ask the clerk.
- Q. How long does a Company have to pay me Back Pay and job back after winning in Arbitration?
- A: I do not know how union arbitration awards are enforced. With a normal arbitration, the arbitration agreement or award says that the award can be confirmed as a judgment. In those cases, you would confirm the award as a judgment and enforce the judgment.
- Q. Can I manage other people's money (money manager or portfolio manager) with only my series 65 license in California?
- A: Anyone can allow you to manage their money. There are no requirements for you to do so. Having a business of, or charging for, managing someone else's money can a different story and is more complicated.
