    Libel by email

    I'm actually alumni of the University of New Brunswick. This was always amusing becuase before I took a graduate course there, I was an administrator at Rutgers University (which is in New Brunswick, NJ).

    Selling a house listed in my trust

    I pretty much said that in my opening sentence. Everything else I said was predicated on the stated assumption that he was talking about his inter vivos trust.

    Libel by email

    What here doesn't fit the legal definition or even the vernacular English definition of the word libel. What he has here is a personal insult. Not particularly actionable in the US, though it might be elsewhere.

    Selling a house listed in my trust

    "Personal trust" doesn't define anything. But if you're talking about an inter vivos (i.e., living trust) as pointed out the closing entity (escrow house, title company, attorney) will know how to handle it. Usually all it takes is the trustee to sign for the trust everywhere and often a...

    Libel by email

    People insulting you isn't libel. Libel is making false statements to damage your reputation to OTHERS.

    Weapons, Guns, Firearms Charged with no physical evidence.

    No, it appears that HE is a felon. She merely didn't possess her FOID card. If she was a felon, they'd have charged her with the felony "felon in possession" rather than the misdemeanor "no FOID card." Frankly, I don't buy the story. I suspect that the OP did have the gun and gave it to...

    Weapons, Guns, Firearms Charged with no physical evidence.

    He further stated she was charged with possession with no FOID, and he was charged with possession by a felon.

    URGENT - contract - signature is a snapshot

    It think what he means is they have a scan or photograph of the document he signed, that they in turn signed. Either way, it is likely valid. About the only way it isn't is if someone took a picture of his signature and attached it to a document without his knowledge.

    Weapons, Guns, Firearms Charged with no physical evidence.

    Depends what the poster meant by "in her possession." If it meant she had it tucked in her pants, then I'd agree with TM. If it was some place like a bag or glove box or whatever that both could have constructive possession of, then he could indeed be guilty. Facts matter and drunks often...

    Email Campaign Marketing

    Also, understand that most internet providers like Amazon Web Services and the like take a dim view of this sort of thing. They take initial steps to keep you from setting up your obnoxious spam robot and will shut you down in an instant once the complaints about your unconscionable activity...

    Weapons, Guns, Firearms Charged with no physical evidence.

    FOID is Illinois's gun permit: "Firearm Owner Identification Card." Can't possess either firearms or ammo without it. That's a class A misd. The poster is charged with a felony. Neither charge is anything to sneeze at. Contrary to his mistaken impression, there's no requirement of...

    Copyright Can my DIY project be sued for copyright?

    Personally sued, yes would need to be in his country. However, if he sells his goods in the US, he can very much expect to find his stuff confiscated at the border, especially with one of the heavy-handed giants like Apple involved. Ask OneBuds about their ear bud shipment.

    Music licensing for Instagram/Facebook

    I've seen innocuous videos go poof on both YouTube and Facebook. For example, I do online swing dance classes. Every once in a while one gets shutdown because a song (and most of these are fairly old stuff) is marked infringing.

    Extrinsic test: plot and sequence (9th Circuit)

    It would seem less likely since it was the case the Masterson decision was based on (and that was last August).

    Extrinsic test: plot and sequence (9th Circuit)

    Click on the link in the middle of the quote I posted and it will take you to the precedent case where they analyze "plot," "sequence of events," and the other criteria for the work in question.

    Music licensing for Instagram/Facebook

    The strict rule is as Michael states, you need permission to use the music as a backdrop for your own videos. These are called sync rights and are distinct from just using the music for on a webstream or the like. It matters not much if you are profitting from the site that you're using the...

    FILIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN MONTANA

    Getting that out of the way, understand that past abuses don't get you out of the filial responsibility. Nor to previous promises to pay. His squandering and refusing to work (if he's able) are things that can invalidate your responsibility. The question is what needs your father isn't...

    FILIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN MONTANA

    The rules come from the MCA 40-6-214: Reciprocal Duties Of Parents And Children In Maintaining Each Other 40-6-214. Reciprocal duties of parents and children in maintaining each other. It is the duty of the father, the mother, and the children of any poor person who is unable to provide...

    Extrinsic test: plot and sequence (9th Circuit)

    If that's what the court held, it defies the definitions in common use in English writing. Plot *is* the sequence of events. What you describe as "plot" above is what is commonly called "theme." The case is Masterson v. Walt Disney. I'm reading it now: MASTERSON v. WALT DISNEY | No...
