    Gifting a vehicle when I die.

    The statute that provides for transfer of a vehicle at death by designation is ARS 28-2055. It is a very simple statute and has no requirement for filing of the designation form with the DMV and it may well be that the DMV wouldn't accept the form prior to death. A number of AZ attorney web...

    Alcohol & Drugs: DUI, DWI Test for driving under the influence of marijuana or cannabis?

    The big focus on alochol in public service ads (PSAs) unfortunately leads a lot of people to think that using drugs won't result in a DUI/DWI problem. However DUI laws make it illegal to drive under the influence of any substance that impairs the driver's ability to drive safely. In addition to...

    Biden regrets ending re-election campaign and says he’d have easily defeated Trump!

    It's not surprising he feels that way. When an election is lost, the losing campaign looks back to see what mistakes were made, and often the key figures look to find a reason to blame someone other than themselves for the loss. The whole reason that Biden was pushed aside was that he was not...

    legal help

    It depends on a lot on what it is you want to talk to the lawyer about. If you experienced a personal injury or violation of your civil rights and wish to sue for money damages or you are charged with a crime and need a lawyer to defend you most lawyers handling those kinds of cases typically...

    Medical licensing for violating moral and ethical standards outside a medical environment.

    Sue you for what, exactly? She might file a suit for defamation but sending videos and transcripts to others is not defamatory because defamation requires that you make false statements to others that harm her reputation. If the videos and transcripts are all she points to in her suit the case...

    Question regarding putting my elderly fathers house in my name, sibling in legal trouble

    First, it is not possible for YOU to grant yourself title to the property. That is something your father would have to do. It's his decision, not yours. Moreover, however strong your feelings are about the house, remember that it is not your asset and it's your father's right to do with it as he...

    Does anyone here really know the elements of a malicious prosecution?

    Whatever else we are doing here, the one thing we are prohibited by law doing here is dispensing legal advice, except for those who are attorneys licensed in the state in which the OP resides or has the legal issue. The point that no one should take anything said on these boards as legal advice...

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    That effect is distinctly undemocratic. Why should the vote of a citizen living in a rural state count more than those in a more urban state? Are citizens in rural states superior to those in urban ones such that they are entitled to a great say in what happens in this country? If you say yes...

    NORAD Offers Us the Whereabouts of Santa Claus This Christmas Eve

    Is Santa going to be asked by Canada if he supports Trump's idea of making Canada the 51st state before clearing him to fly over Canadian territory?

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    I think (as do a number of historians) that the Founders did not place all that much faith in the common citizen. For the first 125 years of our nation that the members of the Senate were chosen by the state legislatures rather than a vote of the citizens of those states. That was a move to...

    Does anyone here really know the elements of a malicious prosecution?

    The problem is that the only way to know if you have a viable claim and what prospects you have to win is to meet with an attorney and lay out all the facts. There's no way to even make a decent guess without looking at the details. One detail could make a significant difference. If you have...

    NY Times 'Never Trumper' Stephens Admits Misunderstanding & Mislabeling DJT

    I wish the Trump the best in taking this country where it should go. I want him to succeed in that because the whole country would benefit from it. But given some of his statements of what he intends to do and the nominations for cabinent and other positions I'm not very hopeful that's what...

    Another Bad Opinion by the Supreme Court - Kick the can down the road

    Yes. But my point was that the Supreme Court was making a workload choice, not anything to do with the merits of the case. It can only hear about 1% of the cases in which its review is sought and has to priortize which ones to take. This case would essentially have to be among the 50 or so most...

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    So do I. The Constitution would likely have to be amended, just as it had to be done to impose term limits for president. It wouldn't be easy, but if the public gets fed up enough there may be the push needed to do it. This is one issue that is not rooted in one particular party.

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    We seriously need to get octogenarians out of Congress. Even if they don't suffer from dementia, they are very much out of touch with modern American society both due to their age and because they've spent so long in Washington that they have no experience of what it's like for most of us to...

    Statute of limitations for suing or criminally charging "friends" for setting me up for a psychiatric hold?

    Your claim against your former friends would more likely be a defamation claim. If you were not mentally ill enough to be held in a mental facility then the staff at that facility should have made that determination and released you. If they didn't do that and it was a private facility then you...

    Can the government take your property just to hand it over to your business competitor?

    I do too. Unfortunately at the federal level the Congresses and the presidents we've had so far this century have not done a whole lot of anything aside from passing budgets, naming post offices and renaming military bases, and approving presidential appointees for top agency posts and approving...

    Another Bad Opinion by the Supreme Court - Kick the can down the road

    You are misinterpreting the action of the Supreme Court. The court made no decision (as that term is used in the courts). It instead denied a petition for a writ of certiorari (which lawyers often abbreivate as denying or granting cert). The petition asks the Supreme Court to agree to hear the...

    Can the government take your property just to hand it over to your business competitor?

    We may indeed agree on a lot when it comes to issues. The main difference between us right now is that I can't stand Trump and you seem to wholeheartedly embrace him. But that's a difference in views about a political figure, not issues.

    If a person dies and owe money on credit card, what happens?

    The credit card lender, like all other creditors, will file a proof of claim (or whatever it is called in the state conducting the probate) outlining its claim to estate assets. All the valid debts of the deceased must be paid before estate beneficiaries get anything. The credit card company...
