    Lost package due to incorrect information from agent

    I think you'll have a hard time convincing a judge an adult doesn't know the different between a Fed Ex package and US Mail.

    Why you should never talk to the police...

    Yes on that video the police officer immediately follows the professor, I watched it in full... He basically confirmed everything the law professor said but insisted he didn't want to send innocent people to jail- but I guess he decides who is innocent or not.

    Ignorance of the law does not excuse

    I remember we had at least a couple lessons on law basics including 'ignorance of the law is no defense' in high school.

    Assault & Battery My friend was sexually abused, please help

    I'm not saying it's OK to be abusive, I'm saying the abused has a responsibility to him or her self to end the relationship at the first sign of abuse. By staying wither the abuser she is allowing it to continue.

    Assault & Battery My friend was sexually abused, please help

    How can you say she did nothing wrong? She chose to continue a relationship with someone physically abusive. Had she ended it the first time this happened then I'd say she did nothing wrong, but as is- "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" type of thing. There are plenty of...

    Oh that's gold... so are you going to post this over there or am I? As for the take down notices, that is what I've been saying- Right Haven doesn't give take down notices- they sue immediately once they find so called infringement. If they gave take down notices this would be a non-issue, and...

    I don't want to split hairs but if you use the "Share on Facebook" or "Tweet on Twitter" elements in the article they do indeed share the direct link to the article. Also in my particular case my forum is hidden to those who aren't registered so members never send links to friends or family...

    So I've got this "friend"

    This is what I was afraid of... I told him he might have been in the right until he started breaking down walls and cutting off power but someone somewhere told him "he has rights" if the utilities are in his name and he's convinced he's fighting the good fight. I just hope the landlord is...

    So I've got this "friend"

    Even though it was in his name? Also I forgot to mention... after the first time my friend shut off her power she did retaliate by shutting off the main switch to his A/C and putting a lock on the A/C breaker box so he had to cut the lock before turning it back on, so she isn't completely...

    So I've got this "friend"

    He's renting a house in Memphis. Rent is a substantial amount. There is another tenant in the same "house" but she has her own living space, doors, etc... it's a separate apartment. This guy signed the lease for 2 years and maybe didn't read it too closely. After moving in he found out the...

    Representing Yourself- but bed bound?

    I'm not particularly worried about criminal cases, I don't intend to be breaking any laws personally... but I know I have a big mouth and I'll probably get sued for that one day.

    Representing Yourself- but bed bound?

    When I served jury duty we were specifically told we could NOT visit the crime seen personally. I never went because it was on the other side of Queens but I always wondered what was so important we weren't allowed to go on our own (during trial.)
