Law & Ethics - July 2006

The companies had not realized that no bills were being sent, yet the gas and electric stayed on for nearly a year. Now, theyre saying that I owe them an enormous amount of money. Is there any way around this?

I saw this show a while ago about polygamy and it talked about how many women and children get hurt by it. Why don't Americans do anything about it (and of course our government?)

I would like to start watching children in my home during the day for extra money, but my husband says that our landlord won't let us because of liability on them. Is this true and what can I do to make them not liable in case of an accident/problem/legal issue?

How come I have recently seen all sorts of products have icons that show someone throwing something in the garbage, like on a chewing gum wrapper, McDonald's paper bags, etc. Also, items such as batteries and other electronic devices have an X through them, saying not to throw it away. It all makes sense, but it seems to be only recently that this has come about. Was there any law passed or something else that caused this to take place recently?

He is sueing for harrassment. It's been going on for 4-years now. He can't find a job no more because of that. Can these lawsuits take 7-years? What are the chances of him getting a big return with this law suit?
He will be 47 y/o this year. Did he just ruin his chances of ever getting a good job? Can the courts find in the companys favor at the end of 6-years?
Can his wife freeze the settlement money in order to make up for not paying for food and clothes for his 2 kids?
This so called man is totally stupid. He has no brains at all. He should of been going to college right now to re-educate himself. Don't you think? Do these shallow law suits allways go in the plantiffs favor?
I just hope he looses his case, because it's a frivolous law suit.
Please respond to this.

I've never been drunk so I do not know how much control I would have to stop myself from doing something so terrible and disgusting.
+Do you think that rapists who were drunk at the time of incident should be given less of a sentence?

I know it is rare in this country to actually execute anyone. But for the purposes of this question, we will pretend that when the death penalty is sentenced, it is actually executed (so to speak). If there was a law put to the voters to sentence the death penalty for repeat child molesters, would you vote for it or against it?

ok this is a little strange. my husband's ex wife pays child support every 2 weeks 100.00. well now she has gotten a second job and for some reason they are takin support payments out of both checks. I know that is not allowed by law but we have called the department and they say that it has been deducted from her overdue child support and that we should cash it a keep it because it was taken from the total. now she says that she is not behind and that we need to cash it and write her a check for the additional payment. if it is taken off her over due amount wouldnt that be cheating the kids out of money they are rightfully owed?I have have talked to this department twice now and both times we were assured that she is behind and we should keep the money. I just don't know what to do, she is being very hatefull about it all.

Democratic, Republican, or Independent aside. Our last president was shamefully put through the impeachment process after the discovery that he was upholding the long standing political tradition of our presidents, having an extramarital affair, even though the country, economy, and international opinion were were at high water marks. In the mean time, we now have a president who has started and prolonged an unjustifed war, watched our economy nose-dive, watched our unemployment skyrocket, broken the laws of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, unlawfully imprisoned people, advocated torture, and has one of the most corrupt and self-serving cabinets and vice presidents ever. Why has there been no impeachment proceedings? It is clearly what the majority of Americans want. Have we lost some much control of our government that we ourselves are now on our way to becoming one of the facist dictatorships we so stridently stand against?

After a Plea has been made, can the offender schedule when he wants to serve his punishment?. Here's the situation..The offender, the public defender, and the Prosecuting attorney have made a plea agreement (A Deal).. The Punishment will be for the offender to do bootcamp and probation. Bootcamp is for 3 to 5 months. The offender starts school (college) on AUG 16, 2006 and the offender goes for the last hearing to plea guilty for July 20, 2006...The offender doesn't want the bootcamp to collide with his schooling to where he won't be able to attend school because of the bootcamp. Is it possible for for the prosecuting attorney or judge to schedule his punishment to be served after his school year is up or will he have to serve his punishment after his sentencing court date comes up regardless if he planning on going to school in Aug...Please give accurate feedback.. Thank you

2. Why?

3. If we should legally protect the species, for some reason other than practical concerns, is this a form of legislating morality or personal preference?

I live in Los Angeles. My neighbor wants me to pay to trim the trees that are on my property that hang over the fence into her yard. Whose responsibility is it to pay for this? I need a link to an official government site that states the facts of who is to pay. My gardener says it is not my responsibility. He has 35 years experience, but that it not proof to my neighbor. I do not mind doing it once, but I want to know for certain whether or not it is my responsibility before this becomes a yearly thing.

She is receiving a monthly disability check from the Gov. In 1989 she was ordered by a Texas Judge to pay me for child support, for my two daughters who at the time 8-9 yrs old. Lived with me till 16-18 yrs old. The youngest wanted to visit "mom" and decided to stay. Meanwhile she Paid a total of $0.00 for close to ten years, youngest visits, she takes her to argentina to live and my wages are garnished immedetly. (pitints) $150.00 mo. The state of Washington will do nothing to collect, nor will they talk to me about their where-a-bouts. Even with recorded proof she took her illegaly out of the states, via-flash drive, along with the originating IP and Library terminal number, Rosario, Argentina. We speak all the time. Phone E-maiI, is it because I'm male? She's a dead beat MOTHER, don't they have the same responsibilities and requirements to stop sending the Gov issued checks (out of the country) until I would be paid in full? She still gets our INCOME TAX REFUNDS. whats that?

My wife and I are getting divorced. We have six months left on our apartment. We had to put a huge security deposit down because of her poor credit, so we really need to leave this place on good terms. Here's the problem. She will not leave. I can afford the rent, but she really can't. I am afraid that if I leave the apartment to her she will default on the rent and I will never see my security deposit again. What to do?
