I consider the 9 years as a judgement or order by the lower court.According to the Supreme Court Rules, 1966A petition need to be filed within 30 days from the date of the order or judgement.So,No. You can't file a petition after 9 years.

What is relevant, is that you need a lawyer to do this successfully. Civil rights is an area of law that for practical purposes cannot be understood without training. The police officer will have several experts defending if you sue. Unless you have a lawyer you will be out of luck. If you post details on line, the LEO's lawyers will be able to use this for their purpose. You need a lawyer who knows civil rights in your jurisdiction.Don't try this by yourself.Get a lawyer. Most of the time initial consultations are free.

First of all, to get a lot of responses for your survey don't forget to follow main rules of creating a survey. Here are some of them:Create and design an invitation page, sett the information about why it is so important for you to get the answers there; also write the purpose of your survey.Make your survey short. Remember that people spend their time answering questions.Preset your goal, decide what information you want to get in the end. Prepare list of questions, which would be the most important for you.Give your respondents enough time to answer a survey.Don't forget to say "Thank you!", be polite.Besides, if you want to get more responses, you can use these tips:1.The first one is to purchase responses from survey panel. You can use MySurveyLab’s survey panel for it. In this case you will get reliable and useful results. You can read more about it here.2.If you don’t want to spent money for responses, you can use the second solution. The mentioned tool enables sharing the survey via different channels: email (invitations and e-mail embedded surveys, SMS, QR codes, as a link.You can share the link on different social media, like Twitter, Facebook, Facebook groups, different forums could be also useful, Pinterest, LinkedIn, VKontakte and so on… I think that if you use all these channels, you could get planned number of responses.Hope to be helpful! Good luck!

Several other answerers remark that missing the hearing is bad. When a hearing is set, that is the parties’ opportunity to get stuff into the record. In an adversarial court, the record is everything. The court can only consider what is placed in front of it.Even if formal default isn’t a local procedural thing,¹ failing to show up to the hearing means you won’t have any evidence favourable to you in the record, and efforts to make legal arguments may be shot down as waived—in general, failure to make an argument at the first appropriate time in a proceeding results in waiver. Thus, though another answerer’s suggestion that “not bothering to show up for a hearing means you lose” is not, perhaps, an immutable rule, it’s a practical reality in most cases. The court would prefer to hear from both sides, but it won’t wait around or attempt to divine the position of a party who does not come in to say what that position is.If you wish to go about objecting to the order or seeking for the case to be re-opened without a lawyer, you will have to act as your own lawyer. Without knowing the jurisdiction or anything about the underlying case, I’m not inclined to think the chances of doing so successfully will be very high, but all U.S. courts will suffer parties to appear pro se; it is marginally better than not appearing at all and the courts are supposed to be open. So, it’s “possible.”However, if you’re acting as your own lawyer, you’re going to have to know what you are doing. The court may cut pro se litigants a few procedural breaks, but it would be a violation of the judge’s duty of neutrality to offer any substantive assistance; thus the general rule is that pro se parties should not be treated more leniently than represented parties. So, as a threshold matter, you would have to acquaint yourself with the rules of procedure that apply in that tribunal, and any relevant case law interpreting those rules that might exist. If those rules provide for reopening of orders or post hoc continuances, you will need to comply with any requirements for this relief that might be stated in the rules. If there is case law that is adverse or favourable, you will want to draw a syllogy to explain to the court why your case is similar or dissimilar to the reported case whose holding you want to rely on.As another threshold matter, you will want to look at substantive law as well. Is it actually worth contesting? Is the amount of support being awarded fair? Was there something wrong with it on the face of the record as it exists so that you could skip asking for a new hearing and just appeal? Might it actually go up if you got a new hearing? (This is a thing the happens fairly regularly in my child support proceedings; our judge has said “be careful what you ask for because you might get it.”)Assuming that you have concluded that you will do better if the hearing is reopened, and you have figured out how to ask the judge to reopen the case, you will almost certainly have to show good cause for missing the hearing. Courts do take their business very seriously and expect parties appearing before them to do the same. We regularly deny continuances to people who only want them because “I have to work,” for instance. (Appearances in other courts are a better excuse, though there is a hierarchy of sorts, either spelled out in rules or governed by local custom, that usually determines priority of conflicting court proceedings.) The burden on the other party (who probably also had to miss work) and the system in general (both from wasted court time and from clerical time involved in continuing a case) are factors against continuances, and continuing a case after a decision is made is potentially prejudicial to the other side, who has something of a right to expect the original decision to be final. Failure to receive notices is also not necessarily good cause—once you got initial service, you were aware that an important thing involving your rights was going on and you acquired an affirmative duty to advise the court and the other parties of how to get hold of you.²You may wish to consider contacting your ex and working out a settlement.³Notes:¹ Default is often preclusive and amounts to an admission that the other side’s pleadings or statements are true. Some states do not use formal default in family cases; for instance, in Pennsylvania cf. Pa. R.P.C. Nos. 1920.41, 1915.9, 1910.7, 1901.6. But compare Rule 1910.15(e)—paternity will be established by default if the putative father in a support case fails to show up at the initial conference (this provision is required by the federal Child Support Enforcement Act).² John Gragson's answer to Why isn't the legal system willing to accept "I never received a notice," as a valid excuse? Why don't they simply mail the important notice if you have to sign for them?³ If the ex is represented, you can talk to their attorney, at your own risk of course.

WHOA! You may have a BIG problem. When you started, are you certain you did not fill in a W-4 form? Are you certain that your employer doesn’t have your SS#? If that’s the case, I would be alarmed. Do you have paycheck stubs showing how they calculated your withholding? ( BTW you are entitled to those under the law, and if you are not receiving them, I would demand them….)If your employer is just giving you random checks with no calculation of your wages and withholdings, you have a rogue employer. They probably aren’t payin in what they purport to withhold from you.
