This new decree looks for deportation honest people.
This woman was performing at Colon Theatre and as far as they didn't do the paper work she lost precaria and they stop paying her for 8 months. So, she had to sell everything and she went to the Court to apply for citizenship and she complained that someone here advised her wrongly (not me).
Even she had a very bad attitute and she is never going to get nothing at Court behaving like that (in fact, you can be arrested), she realized what is all the sh...t I have to deal everyday with: xenophobia. She also realized that it includes Americans because it is the hate for all the foreigners.
I suggested her to try with a lawyer (not me) (I was starting 3 cases with no visa without the 2 years with no hassle) but she complained that she cannot afford 5000 usd refering to me (my fees are higher so, right! she was poorly adviced) and I suggested her to go to the 8th floor where the free legal services for poor people are.
She was too upset for listening but as far as she reads here, here is my advice:
A) to make her work without paying is slavery and it has a long penalty of jail so, perhaps, she can send a carta documento made by a lawyer and this way she can get paid very fast.
B ) to make the criminal complaint is something she can do without a lawyer or with the free service of the 8th floor and it might work very well because she can talk about this after she made it but she has to change the attitude to acchieve success;
C) what she can never do is to say what is she going to do because this is a crime: coertion.
D) There are other lawyers or paralegals who charge a lot less for representing at citizenship/criminal/labor and for sure she needs legal help for by passing the employed of the Court or making a law suit.
E) there is also a public free service of lawyers for foreigners. They give you their contact info at Control de Permanencia at Edificio 4 1st floor (not ground floor). It is also there where they arrest you so, perhaps is better to send someone else to find out this info.
