Do I need a specific license to buy and sell crypto (USDT) on Binance, especially in P2P?
Q: Dear Lawyers, Do I need a specific license to buy and sell crypto (USDT) on Binance, especially in P2P? I had a misdemeanor case, and the judge reviewed my bank transactions, asking why there were so many incoming and outgoing transactions. I explained that I buy and sell USDT on Binance P2P. The judge then asked if I have a license to buy and sell crypto, and I said no. The case status is postponed, and the next hearing is scheduled for November 6. I hold a partner visa and have a registered project management company. Do I really need a crypto license before buying and selling USDT on Binance P2P? I`ve already completed many trades and am now worried that the judge might impose a hefty fine. I can`t afford a lawyer right now. Please help me with this information.

Should I raise a case for child custody if my ex-wife is alcoholic and left us alone?
Q: A police complaint was filed for physical assault and alcohol abuse. The wife left home without the child and later was interviewed by social support. The wife was guilty after admitting the truth and gave a written statement to visit a psychiatrist and take therapy. She didn`t adhere to the agreement. Followed by a court case, divorce was granted to the husband based on infidelity, neglect, alcohol abuse, failure in maternal duties, verbal abuse, and misuse of social media under article 7 of federal law 41 of 2022, and the wife was obligated to pay expenses and fees under Article 133 of the Civil Procedures Code. The child has been physically with the husband since October 2023 and the entire expenses and well-being are taken care of by the husband. The ex-wife irregularly visits the child, doesn`t provide personal or financial support, forces the husband to give the child a passport and doesn`t want to raise it with the court, and continues to distress claiming that she has not given custody of the child. Should I raise a case for proof of custody or child custody?

Can I stop paying and terminate the property purchase with refund for delaying the project?
Q: In 2023, I purchased a property and began making monthly installment payments through their 1% payment plan. Unfortunately, due to financial struggles caused by my business collapse, I’ve been unable to continue paying. Despite the project being only 10% complete, the developer refused to grant me additional time, and instead, began adding penalties. As I`m not based in Dubai, communication has been difficult. They’re threatening to terminate the contract, forfeiting all the amount which I paid so far. I’ve already paid them 30%. They are demanding immediate payment despite my current bankruptcy. Is there a chance to recover the amount I’ve paid so far? How much will they deduct? Will they forfeit the entire amount I’ve paid?Oct 21, 2024
