Law & Ethics - July 2006

Morals change over time and in different cultures. Does this mean I have to obey the local (current) laws to the letter?

Was his sex scandal so bad? I don't even think it was any of our business. I am not saying we should have to decide between the lesser of two evils here. I just think we need to exam our priorities. Bush has lied to us about graver things by far when is enough ,ENOUGH?

I've googled this, but I can't find the answer.

If a person was sentenced to death, then suddenly found innocent when it was too late, what happens to the family/ loved ones?

Do/ could they sue, or is their some sort of compensation? What happens?

Looking for a pro bono lawyer in San Antonio, Tx that will take the case. My husband is about to be charged and indicted for murder and 2 counts of attempted murder. This is a crime he did NOT commit and he has witnesses, but they are afraid to testify because they fear for there safety. He gave the detectives the names of the people who did do it but they are still trying to pin it on him. He's currently incarcerated for an unrelated crime and upon parole the county is suppose to pick him up so he can be charged (he has 3 detainers ). He feels his chances of a good court appointed attorney is slim to none, so he doesn't want to go that route. The attorneys I have called want a prodigous amount of money because this will be a high profile case. Any help any one can offer will be greatly appreciated.

I believe Since the Executive branch has responsibility for the State Department the president sees that the officers carry out it's duties. The Duties are not clearly defined by the framers, but a citizen does not lose his/her citizenship and once in harms way, the government must protect those individuals.

The cost and billing of these people is another subject altogether. I simply want to know can one find this aas a responsibility in the constitution?

I know it's wrong morally, and that it's a crime, but if you had to steal, would you do it? Don't be too quick to judge someone who says yes, you never know what situation you might find yourself in during your life. There are plenty of little old ladies who have worked their whole lives, and can't afford to buy food so they steal it so they can eat. What do you think, would you steal?

The U.S. has apologized for the atomic bombs on Japan and for the Japanese internment camps in the US during WWII, I'm wondering, has Japan apologized to the US for Pearl Harbor and the abusing and starving to death of American POW's? I'm also wandering if it has apologized to SE Asian nations for it's brutal abuse on them, and to China for countless invasions and deaths. I dont know, so that's why I'm asking. And if they haven't, then WTF is wrong with them???

It's been hanging around my house all that time. I have no idea if it is a 25 or 22 or 33 or 45 or ???? or even how to tell. I've never registered it. For years I kept it around becaue I had trouble getting rid of my mother. And I know that must sound pretty dumb to some of you, but I always felt like it was a part of her and if I got rid of it, I'd be getting rid of her. So now what do I do with it? I really don't want it for anything and after 11 years I'm ready to 'let go' Where can I sell it or turn it in? I don't want to put it on Ebay as you never know if a criminal is buying it and the same goes for the newpaper ect. But if I give it to the Police - will I get in trouble?

My husband made a Will and put in the Safe deposit box. He told me that the Will was signed in front of two "friends", and that I am not to open the Will until he dies. He said the "Will" is sealed. He said, when he dies, I am to go to the safe deposit box and get it and get his two friends before I can open the Will.

Does this make sense?

I am his second wife and he does have a child with me. He also has 6 kids from his previous marriage.

I want to know:
1) Can the Will only be open in front of a laywer?

2) Why do I need his friends to be present when I open the Will?

3) Will I get in trouble if I open the Will without the lawyer when my husband dies?

I live in New York.

thank you.
