    Can "Failure Fail To Yield To Emergency Vehicle" be considered as crime of moral turpitude?

    wow! You failed to notice quite a bit, didn't you? Sounds/sirens, lights/vision and your own speed limit (98 in a 60?) No idea on the moral turpitude, but dude you just hung yourself with your own words with admitting what you didn't notice. did you also post this same question on Avvo in...

    are there socioeconomically disadvantaged families in the district that cannot afford private preschool? That would be my guess as to the reason at the top of the list.... well that and they are looking for a good use of the property that brings in at least some of the costs of having the...

    Is this discrimination or defamation?

    I suspect the ban is so that you can't retaliate against her due to her complaint. I'm not seeing where they needed to ask your side, especially since you admit to being part of a "small argument", right? There's never a reason to get into a "small argument" (which I suspect was witnessed by...

    Tort law

    Have to agree that you (1) poked the wrong person and (2) used the wrong way to go about complaining about the animal issue. You took on someone more powerful and lost in a consequence you weren't expecting. In the end you gave her the ammunition to use against you (texting while at work for...

    How do we pay someone who works from home during maternity leave

It's doable....but not required that you allow it... First I'd have the employee put in writing that it is her request to do so (with no pressure from...

    Professional Development Plan

    no requirement that every employee be on the same plan or even have one at all. It is very possible there are some positions that really have no place to grow but to have good employee performance. And there's no requirement that they give you a PDP even if they give one to your replacement...

    School Confusion

    did your school not have an "application for graduation"? If so, when did you complete it? When you finished your classes early or right before the walking graduation. I have to agree with the others though that you bear some responsiblity. I've been through college as have my 2 daughters and...

    unfortunately he chose to have a child with this person and for the next umpteen years he will have to deal with her to see his child if he wants to go to events where they will both be. Do they have any court orders/custody set in court?

    Not enough money made in last 2 quarters

    Canadian vs US child support

    If he failed to disclose his pension (at least in the USA), that can mean big problems and probably the fact that he will owe some portion of it to her now-- especially part of what he earned while still married to her. There should have been something in the divorce paperwork about what the...
