I like the guy's enthusiasm for it. It'd great if a supersonic passenger plane could check all the boxes that it needs to do to make it a profitable venture. That's going to be tall order. For transatlantic flights it will have to meet European enviromental regulations. It's pricing will have be...

Oh, political conventions are rarely entertaining these days. Since the start of the primary era few conventions have had any suprises or drama to keep people turned in.. Trump's convention was just as bad. Sure the diehard believers in both parties are thrilled to be at those things, but for...

You do know what a secret police force is like, right? The Soviet Union's KGB, Nazi Germany's Gestapo, East Germany's infamous Stasi, etc? When those organizations were at full strength citizens would disappear without a trace after taking position the government didn't like. If the family was...

What exactly in the BOA account agreement do you think the bank breached?

How do you conclude "they all hate each other" from a photo like that? In any event they don't have to like each other to be effective.

They are not. But not because some higher body reviewed those cases and reversed them. The phrase "final arbiter" means that the litigants in that particular case have no other place to go to get the result they seek. For them, the Supreme Court is the end of the line. There is no one else the...

The word "review" in the appellate context refers to the situation where a higher court takes a decision on case from a lower court and considers whether the lower court got it right, with the decision of the higher court binding the lower court. There is no other court or body in our system...

You can't get it online. The district courts in Colorado do not put out online anything other than a log of the actions taken in the case. If you want to see it, you need to go personally to the clerk of the court to do so. I don't you'd gain anything useful in doing that and certainly wouldn't...

It's a very good bet that you wouldn't that lawsuit, and even if you could it would likely cost you more to do it than you'd win. For example, your travel costs to come to the U.S. for the trial (if the case made it that far) and lodging costs while here are not costs that get added to your...

The thing is that the U.S. Supreme Court is the final arbiter of what the Constitution. By definition the Supreme Court's decision can't be wrong (as far as the law is concerned) because there is no forum for review of its decision. The remedy for Congress if it does not like a constitutional...

I've gone back to your original questions because it looks to me like this thread has gone a little off track. I'll outline the general process here (in case that did not go to a jury) but to keep it simple, it'll be a case that has just one issue. The exact steps will vary a bit depending on...

That's a pretty good bet, though I couldn't find a copy of its standard warranty contract online to confirm it.

It is frequently the case in court opinions that the holding of the case is found in the body of the opinion, rather than in the final sentence in which (in this case) the order to reverse the lower court is stated. That's why lawyers scruntize the entire case looking for what the court held...

The decision of the Supreme Court does not have to use the word "jurisdiction" for the case decision to clearly reflect that. That's the situation with this opinion. No. It renders the other issues that the court was going to consider moot. Once the court lacked the power to decide the...

When the employer is not a government agency, then the employer may legally fire you for any reason (or no reason at all) except for a few reasons prohibited by law. The prohibited reasons include firing you because: • of your race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation, gender...

Correct, the U.S. Supreme Court did not discuss the Colorado Supreme Court's reasoning on the 14th Amendment substantive issues (which were the only claims it could consider as the rest of the issues raised in the case were state law claims) because it didn't need to do so. It chose instead to...

The District Court (which is the trial court of general jurisdiction in Colorado) never held a trial or issued any opinion or order on the issue of whether Trump's name may be on the ballot. Instead, the order that triggered the appeals was one in which the District Court judge denied three...

I am assuming that your former employer is not a government agency and that you were not a member of a union that has an appeal process in its collective bargaining agreement (CBA). If my assumption is correct, then the employer doesn't have to offer an appeal process at all, and the appeal it...

A layoff is a not a termination for cause and would not result in the laid off employee losing unemployment benefits. As for severance pay, the employer is not required to pay that unless there is a guarantee of that that the employer has with the employee, or the employee's union. Calling it a...

Do you have credible proof that the DNC organized and carried out those lynchings? If you do, please do share it. Certainly the White males who carried out those lynchings were murderers and should been hung themselves for it. But being White does not equate to being part of the DNC, or even...
