I wonder if character witnesses should even be allowed in a trial. ANYONE can find (or pay) a few people that will swera that the accused is a GREAT guy/gal!

What does that have to do with the instance of a crime, to which the 'witness' has no knowledge?

The question of a trial is not if the accused is a nice person, a decent guy or anything like that. it is to judge, based on available evidence, if the accused committed the offence!

What can character witnesses really offer other than taking up time and clogging the process up even further?

The 'race card' was played by Johnny cocheran (spelling, who cares anyway!). the Poor murder was black and the nasty oppressive victims were white.

why didn't the prosecution play tha 'race card' right back and trup the one the defence used?

why is race ALWAYS BROUGHT UP when anyone that is not white is accused of anything?

I would say that when anyone that is not white commits a crime against anyone white should have this brought up as a racially motivated crime, if and only if that person tries to cloud the issue by claiming race is the real factor behind the prosecution!

So I was going to adopt a dog at the animal shelter and they needed to see my lease stating that dogs are allowed in the apartment and my landlords phone number. So i call my landlord and asked if i was allowed to have dogs in the apartment and he said that no dogs are allowed and anybody who already had a dog will have to take them out because they were destroying property. But the problem is no-where in the lease does it say that dogs are not allowed or that they are allowed. And about 75% of the people who live in the other apartments have dogs or other pets. Is this legal that they are going to make other people take out their pets or not let have pets when they didnt state in the lease that they are not allowed in the first place? Oh i live in Boston, MA, is it different here or in other states?

I was a victim of sexual harassment by a co-worker just recently.
I went through all of the protocol and used the "chain-of-command" provided by my employer. It has been 3 days since I've reported this and I feel like they are trying to pacify the situation rather than rectify. Now the person, who has not issued a formal apology, can still work at the same store, just on different shifts. That means that I lose days as well! They say that it's pretty much "he said-she-said" and that there's "really nothing there" to be true. I want to know what my options are and what I can do to seek my version of justice? Thanx in advance.

I've been wondering for a while on how the government keeps track of how much cash money they make. Since people (everyone.) lose their money from time to time, how do they keep the useable cash balanced? Also, if our country needs more money, why not MAKE more?

im a single mother of a 4 1/2 yr old and the father whom isnt on the birth cert. has never seen my son only has paid child support when it was convinvent for him. well at least until i put a court order on him. But he has skipped state and isnt working anymore as of a month and im tired of this back and forth is there anyway that i can have the state terminate his rights? the only right he has is to pay child support but again the only way now is to track him down and force him into court again which is not only costly but it is also getting tiring. this has been a almost 5 yr battle with him and the only thing thats important to him is money

Is it because women seem less threatening to other countries? Because they wouldn't be taken seriously? Or, is it something else?

My dad died suddenly, and my mom died a few days after him. They had a jointly owned with right of survivorship checking/savings account, as well as jointly owned their house. Since my dad died first, do the accounts and house automatically become part of HER estate, since she survived my dad? The reason I ask is that he had about $4000 in credit card debt (in his own name, mom didn't have that card) and I think the creditors can't get anything because everything became my mom's upon his death. Is this correct? Both lived in New Jersey. Thanks.

About 3 years ago I started having gall stone attacks. From the beginning they were very severe attacks. Not having health insurance and not knowing where to go to get help, I went to the ER. They told me it was just gas and prescribed an antacid. I went home and a few weeks later when the pains became more intense, (they were severely painful to begin with.) I returned yet again to the ER. I informed them of the previous visit and yet again I left that day with no answers. The doctor told me it may be an ulcer and to follow up with the county health department for treatment. I made the appointment and while waiting for the appointment I suffered the most severe attack Back I went to the ER where they finally diagnosed the problem correctly. I was prepped for emergency surgery. That all came to a halt when they discovered my liver and gall bladder were severely infected. It took over a week to stabilize me for surgery and I was told if I waited even another day (brb have to add detail
