Law & Ethics - July 2006

I have a client that called and made a reservation to travel to Europe. Three days after that called to pay for the reservation, but she wanted to send a check and the reservation was canceling that day. So I issued two tickets without having a payment. I didn't recieve her payment and she is not answering the phone. She doesn't have the tickets but that is not the point. If I am going to cancel these tickets I have to pay $125 per ticket. Is there any way that I can get her to pay for this??? THX

I just observed a scandalous scene inside a government public facility where a lady just stormed in & started yelling "who owns a Jack Russell terrier inside a car outside?!!!" it was 110 degrees that day but with windows rolled down & I later found out the dog has a bowl of water in it & the people who owns it were just doing a quick chore in that govt facility, b4 going to the beach. The lady added hysterically & shouted: "did u know that w/in (?) mins they can die? Dog killer! (or murderer!) I will take your dog if ur not going to leave now & take her home! I will call Humane Society!" She kept going on & on until 1 of the owner said: "Mind your own business or I will sue you for libel & slander. We just arrived and my wife will go back to the car after she helps me with (whatever they were doing there, i did not hear)". When I left the place, she was still going on & the man's # was called and he was just quiet while the wife went to the car/dog. What is ur opinion on this?

I joined a lease and my roomates had already had the house before me. Me and another kid signed the lease and were never informed that they owed over $1,000 - which he just rolled over into the next lease term. He's now coming after me along with everyone else for money. Is my lease null and void because he never told me this? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Why or Why not? Remember not all sex offenders are child predators and some have gotten a life with wives and children after being a teenager involved with a younger teenager?

US law states that people under the influence of drugs or alcohol are unable to consent to sex, but are still responsible for their other actions. A man/woman under the influence can say yes to sex the night of and then legally over turn it the next day making the partner a sex offender. A man/woman cannot commit any other crime and site intoxication as an excuse. The law is obviously hypocritical and leaves too much room for debate in the courtroom. I beleive that you are always responsible for your actions no matter what the circumstance.

I dont know what to do. I sold a playstaion 2 with ebay. I have 100% feedback. He sent me an email saying there was a sticker on the box saying the packaging didn't hold up, which couldnt possibly be true. I packaged it very well. Now he says that he only received about 20% of the shipment, not including the shipment. I offered shipping insurance in the auction, but he declined. I dont know if it is theft during the shipping process or buyer fraud, who also has 100% feedback rating. Any advice on what to do would be great, thanks.

In the state of Ohio, a person who had been in prison may practice law once they attend law school and pass the bar exam. I reside in texas now. I need to know if I can practice law in texas before I pay to attend law school. Thank you

Regardless of what the dictionary says 'laws' are rules which cannot be broken. For example the theoretical laws of science are proven false(lies) simply if they can be broken.

This actually makes it "the rule of lies" and not "the rule of rules" by the fact that exaggerations are NEVER more than lies.

Further, isn't living by any other order than the Creators law or 'the law of truth' living under the destroyers "rule of lies"?

Afterall, they proclaim to be "the authority" isn't the Creator/Truth the real Authority?

Lucidly, by this false claim to authority doesn't that make government the "ultimate deceiver" and therefor, its officers "the minions of evil"?

I've been wrongly accused of a crime, but I do have a criminal record (drug paraphanalia). The police and DA believe that I'm a drug dealer (that's what the Public Defender told me), so I think that's why they're trying me with anything they can.

My problem is that I've had the Public Defender several times before and he consistently failed or was totally incompitent. Now I'm facing two years in state prison and I'm scared to death that he will screw this up for me.

Is there any reason other than conflict of interest that would qualify me for a court-appointed attorney in Pennsylvania?

i bought a used car from a private seller in shawano wisconsin. true i did buy it "as is" but im curious and hopeful that there may be some legal recourse available since the car did break down within 48 hours of sale and not to mention the fact when i took it to a certified mechanic he believes that someone masked the problem or was at least aware of it

So if the lawyer finds out his defendent is lying than he can drop the case. How is that procedure done? I mean does he still have to go to court and tell the judge during the case, or does he write the judge a letter saying that he does not want to defend his defendent.

My husband I are planning to get pregnant next year with our first child. We do not want my husband's mother to gain guardianship ever since she is unstable.

We would like my parents to be guardians if we should die. We also want a will that dispurses our property, money and other belongings.

Is there any templates that we can do this for free and have it notarized?

What are the laws on this in California?
