New York Q&A

I was getting on an MTA bus in Queens and the driver accelerated suddenly, causing me to fall and injure my back. I've been to urgent care and they've prescribed medication, but I'm still in a lot of pain. I'm wondering if it's worth pursuing a lawsuit against the MTA.

I'm registered to vote but my identity hasn't been verified yet, so I have to show ID. I don't have a state ID or a passport.

I'm a New York resident who's been away for a year, and I've received a jury duty subpoena after my mom never gave me or told me about the initial letters. I'm wondering if there's a way to handle this outside of court, possibly through emailing or calling someone, or if I have to attend the scheduled court date.

I'm tired of seeing ConEd ads on TV when I'm paying my electric bill. It seems like they're wasting my money on unnecessary commercials.

My building recently got a new landlord and they switched to a different platform which said that I have to pay via checks. Annoying but whatever. Then I had a conversation with some of the market rate tenants and turns out that they've been paying rent online this whole time, while my account doesn't have this option. I talked to more people and turns out that the landlord doesn't accept online payments from all rent-stabilized tenants in our building. Is it legal? Is there anything we can do?

I filed my NY State Tax Return for 2025 through Sprintax, but I recently found out that I paid more than I owed and was asked to file an amendment IT-201-x. However, they cannot tell me how much extra I paid nor does it show anywhere on my account.
