Politics & Government - 14 October 2007

I am thinking of moving to Florida from Pennsylvania and want to know what legal obstacles I have to go through, if any, reguarding my 5 year old son. His father is in the Marines and pays child support, etc. but there is no custody agreement. He has been a part of our lives on and off for the past year but we have no future together and there's no knowing what he would try to do to get back at me since I do not want to be with him. The idea of me being charged with kidnapping had come to my attn. by a friend and I had never thought of that before now. Is there anything I need to do make sure I am doing everything legally in this matter?

After all, all the cars he's carrying are also probably speeding!

My guess is either a used car salesman or one of those sleazy ticket scalper guys you see at sporting events holding up the "I Need Tickets" signs.

Others guesses? Let the speculation begin....

I got in trouble for wrapping a teachers house! It was really all fun and games, i meant nothing by it, i really like the teacher! She just called the cops and the cop justed talked to me! Can the school take action for it when it didnt even have anything to do with school? Can they suspend me or make me serve any other punishment? It would be great to get some helpful answers, not ones that say oh your stupid for doing that you should get in trouble! thanks people i already get that it was wrong, but i didnt mean anything by it! it was just for fun! im actually an all A student and i never get in trouble!!

If this person is so intent of giving money away why not return to his own country where a huge number of sports clubs or deserving institutes would be glad to receive some needy assistance. Why go to Africa [a bottomless pit] and give it to those who already get assistance to waste.

That of deforestation?
Could it be that global warmers also blame the trees because they emit ever increasing levels of C02 as they mature?

My father-in-law signed a contract with a lawyer over a dispute with probate of his father's estate. The lawyer froze all assets that were in probate. My father-in-law passed with no will. He had no property and all assets were used to pay for his final expenses. He really has no estate and nothing went to probate. Is the contract still valid? If the contract states that the attorney is still owed money who has to pay for that? How do we get the funds in probate released?

I live in Apple country and these guys and gals that pick the fruit get paid by the bushell and make a average of $28. a hour. I see lots of iner city minorities here during season and they work half as hard as the Mexicans and still make about $12-$15. a hour.
Again, get rid of ilegals and replace them with dead beat dads and healthy welfare recipiants.

yesterday i got a speeding ticket, and the cop immediate called me stupid among other things. I didn't say anything rude to make the cop disrespect me. I should not have been braking the law, but all that i expect him to do is dish out the punishment and let me be on my way. When he went back to his car i set my phone to record video. then he comes back with the tickets in hand, and i got him on tape callin me an idiot, and that he wishes he i would've gone a lil faster so he would've gotten more on me.

HIS greeting was "what's up dawg"
every once in a while he blinded my eyes with his flashlight as a joke.
He also made a stupid comment about buying groceries at 1:00 in the morning.

Do i have anything on this policemen?

I bailed my girlfriend out of jail for 4,100 dollars with my own credit card. Now we are broken up and she refuses to pay more than minimum payments while she has a new expensive car loan and high insurance which equals 600 dollars a month. Also will minimum payments hurt my credit score?

Hi, I applied to become a police officer. I was sent a letter to take the written test, however I missed it due to an emergency.
What do i do next? Will they let me reschedule or will they dismiss my application because I wasn't able to take the test?

what i especially don't get is how people can complain about the expense of illegal immigration (40 bil per year) when we spend about 40 bil per WEEK on a silly war for oil

I park in my highschool every day. One day i left the school when there were only a few cars left and there was a cop parked fairly far from my car and he was just sitting in his car. Right when I got into my car and started driving away, he came to where I was exiting the school (there are many lanes in the parking lot and he just chose mine) and he followed me exactly without putting the siren or anything. I get to a stop sign, and go and he does the same. I exit the parking lot and I drive for about 3 seconds and he puts on his siren and makes me stop and then he tells me that he has seen my car before and was waiting to meet me and he gives me a ticket. I believe that for some reason he wanted to give me a ticket in the street rather than in the parking lot. I don't know if cops are allowed to do this or what the advantage is for them.

As above, and how about if instead we are talking about officer commendation Do they do more than give you a physical and ask you about your history?

I am a single female living alone in a house I bought a 1 1/2 yrs. ago. I have a neighbor who has been harassing me since the day I closed on the house from removing all my trees to putting up a fence in my yard. I have what I believe to be enough proof and details revolving around this scenerio to file for harassment, however, it's very costly and time consuming and I would rather hope that such an order as a "do not contact" order would put him in a position to relinquish his aggressiveness towards me. He has had many problems in the past with other surrounding neighbors but chooses to focus on me as I believe he does not like it when I do not respond to him or his efforts to control every situation that is none of his business. Everything I have done on my property has been through the city's approval. He justifies his reaction to each update I make to my house by my lack of communication with him. What can I do here to have some peace?

If this question moves forward and relations with Turkey are further strained and then we are prevented from using their lands and airspace for moving our supplies wont that make the war harder to fight.
