    Clearly you need to take a picture of the cut and show us.

    she is going to be charged with aggravated assault. however i want a monetary reward to pay me. i wanna get this bitch every way possible. my baby daddy is getting charged with accessory. i will make sure justice is served in my case. i can't take a pic of the cut cuz i have to keep it in bandages. its a six inch lasseration on the side of my back that wraps around to my stomach. but as far as the criminal charges are concerned, i can't get a hold of the damn detective over my case.

    what do you think you can "get" from her that will be more than the cost of a lawyer to sue her?

    As far as monetary you can get maybe lawyers fees. It's hard to get wages when you don't have a set wage.

    Get a friend to help you take a couple of pictures. There is no better evidence than photographs. You can't bleed to death from having the bandages off for a minute or two.

    I second this. You are probably better off just leaving it alone. It sucks, but it's going to be more trouble than it's worth. Where is your kid? Make sure your kid is safe and not with those crazy people and just go your seperate way.

    Not in Tennessee. One 'element of damages that the plaintiff can recover is the value of the ability to earn money that has been lost in the past [and the present cash value of the ability to earn money that is reasonably certain to be lost in the future]. In deciding what, if any, award should be made for loss of the ability to earn, you should consider any evidence of the party's earning capacity, including among other things, the party's health, age, character, occupation, past earnings, intelligence, skill, talents, experience and record of employment. The loss of the ability to earn money may include, but is not limited to, actual loss of income.'

    Uncertain or speculative damages are prohibited only when the existence, not the amount, is uncertain. The amount of damages is not controlled by fixed rules of law but by sound discretion. Earning capacity refers not to actual earnings but to the earnings a person is capable of making and is arrived at by comparing what the person would have been capable of earning but for the injury with what the person is capable of earning after the injury.

    Just press charges. I seriously doubt she has anything you could sue for anyway.

    Press charges and work on a restraining order for both of them....that sounds like a better use of your time and effort...

    She's not going to have anything to give you. You couldn't prove that you would have made 500$, 2$ or 1000$ that night and unless you have a schedule it'd be hard to prove you even planned to go in and work at all. You'd probably end up costing yourself money.

    i would sue for your hospital bills, but i doubt you could get more then that. shell get the judgement against her to pay if you win but it does not mean youll get the money if she doesnt have it.

    pure speculation on my part, but ...

    under Tennessee law it would appear that you would have a case re permanent loss of income potential due to the scars left by her aggravated assault. The logic involved is the same for an exotic dancer who now has a large nasty scar on her midsection as it would be for a fashion model who's face was scarred. In both cases the presence of the scar greatly reduces her income potential, both in terms of being able to get hired by new employers at all, and in terms of the amount of money that 'customers' are willing to spend on her versus a competing dancer / model who does not have scars !!!

    Theoretically, this 'permanent impairment' to your dancing career could be worth say $10,000 per year over the projected 10 year life of your dancing career, or 100 grand in settlement !

    ^^^ Sure, *IF* the attacker had that kind of money to pay out, which I doubt she does. And the OP only just started dancing, I believe, so she'll have a nice time convincing a Memphis judge that she's really missing out on big money as a nice clean exotic dancer. It's more likely she'd just get laughed out of court and slapped with huge lawyer fees.

    I think you'd have to prove your income. Have you filed your taxes? How long have you been dancing? You can't sue for loss of income you're getting that the government doesn't know about. If you just started dancing, there might be a chance since you haven't had to file taxes yet.

    I'm not sure how that works, Melonie would probably have a better answer.

    Please take pics everyday, even if you have missed some days. Taking pics of the wound - although bandaged - is fine. You're documenting part of the scope of treatment, which is what those bandages are. You can't harm your situation by documenting it as much as possible, no matter what direction you pursue legally. Make sure the cam is set to time-stamp.

    Can you get in touch with a Legal Aid Society in your area, if you qualify for it? Otherwise, http://www.tba.org/LawBytes/findalawyer.html It sounds like there could be other questions/issues in your situation, and it's best to try to get a professional sooner than later.

    thanks so much everyone for your help. damn police department taking too long to handle it. that' s why its so much crime in memphis. i'm willing to bet that at least forty percent of assault crimes and murders are retaliation crimes in which the police have been called but took too long to pursue. the hardest part is waiting on the justice system to handle this. it's been a week almost and this bitch is still on the streets

    Legal Aid is great, I've used them. Your current break in income may qualify you under their financial guidelines.

    The best option is to make sure this goes on the assailant's record- if you can't get a monetary settlement, the next best thing is punishing her with a record of the incident.

    Yes, so true. This is why I don't go after a jerk that owes me. It's very hard to collect a judgement, not to mention the court & attorney costs. Even small claims courts cost, & you must serve them or get them served, maybe you could take a deduction in your taxes.

    Besides lost wages, you can also sue her for punitive damages. If you don't have money for a lawyer, you can try to find one who will take contingency fees. This way you won't have to pay any money up front or if you lose the case, however, if you win the case, you'll have to give around 1/3 of the award to the lawyer.

    ^^^ Yep, she'll have to pay the lawyer 1/3 of what's awarded, and who knows whether she'll ever get the money to pay him with. I mean, you can sue a broke ghetto woman, but if she can't pay you then you still get no money even if you win the case.

    I'm betting that the attacker in this scenario isn't exactly Melinda Gates.
