Law & Ethics - August 2006

I have old Nissan 240 Sx, she has honda SUV very new( don't know what-type very big one). We hit back to back . Her right bumper fold in and my right bumper has some fold and scratch. Her is more damage. Anyway, she want to get estimate and settle without using insurance. I don't care about fixing mine. I believe that she really want to fix her but have me pay for it. I don't think that is my fault, am I right? Should I report my insurance so they can take care of it ( deal with her for me)? I am afraid that she might turn around and report to her insurance first and I don't report mine..so then it becomes my fault ? and also will cause my insurance rate to increase . Will it increase- if I just got in accident if not my fault? Please help, I just need to decide ASAP. Thanks.

the investigating agency said that someone else is associated with my social security number, they gave me his name and most recent address on file. I do not know this person but he is from the same state as I am and he is roughly the same age.
Can I take legal action against him if he did use my SSN?
Can I take legal action even if he did not misuse my SSN?

I am filing a police report tomorrow against this guy and hopefully that can do some questioning...

Is it true that one SSN can be used for more than 1 person? That seems questionable to me. Please help with all my questiong? Thank you!

My husband has two daughters from his first marriage - both are over 40. We have two small children - under 10. He passed and provided for all of us in his will. When I started to probate the will (I am independent administrator), his daughter called the courthouse and stated that she wanted to contest the will. My attorney wants an additional $3500 to proceed. I want to wait his daughter out to find out what she wants to do next, but cannot reach her. Doesn't she have to have a lawyer to proceed? Isn't there paperwork that she has to file?

in other words, destroying all the things he is suing contractor for thus rendering the contractor incapable of requesting arbitration or proving client is either dead wrong and lying or.....dead wrong and lying lol...would the judge be forced to decide in favor of defendent seeing as the plaintiff destroyed all evidence that the defendent is being accused of doing wrong? And can the defendent file a motion that prohibits the plaintiff from TOUCHING the work in question until a decision has been handed down? AND would it actually be the BETTER thing that the client go ahead and hire someone to remove said work before the court date because defendent may win by sheer default?

My husband died suddenly last month. We had several credit cards held jointly but one each that was not joint even though we both had credit cards for our use. Chase bank has told me that it depends on your state of residence if the surviving spouse is responsible and that I needed to contact an attorney. They also said there was no SOP---sometimes it was written off and other times it was given to 3rd parties who could demand payment in full immediately. They said if I wanted I could freely assume responsibilty and they would arrange payments. Now I am retired and disabled and am still putting our daughter through college. I've been left with a great deal of debt. My husband was only 64 as am I and we never had a problem paying our debts. His death was totally unexpected and since I receive a teacher's pension I will not get his social security because of the government offset. My attorney could not give me an answer since he never heard of Chases' policy. Thanks in advance

before the 14th amendment?

They don't state Congress shall not make any law etc, they all say Shall not be infringed, Soldiers shall not, etc... wasn't this already all-encompassing, with the exception of the first amendment?

how come people always say "don't impose your beliefs on others" like i'm supposed to just keep my beliefs to myself b/c somebody might read/hear them and not agree? what ever happened to free speech? nobody asked for you to agree, or read this for that matter, so what's the prob?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

This specifically refers to Congress. Why can't the states ordain their own official religions, ban other religions, control what people can say or print, or ban assemblies? Or ban petitions?

How come people who believe abortion is ok try to say a baby is "tissue" ? Are they really THAT ignorant or are they just trying to make themselves believe it. My sister is 8 wks pregnant and she heard the baby's heartbeat. There's already the start of lungs, arms, legs and eyes. So some actually call that "tissue" ? It's like the supreme court found a loophole in making murder legal. I like the saying that Kleenex makes tissue, not a womb. That's just a big lie so the doctors can make money and people actually buy into it. If these idiot women are going to resort to the measures that they went to when abortion was illegal, so be it. They deserve to go through that hell. If you can't afford a baby, keep your legs closed. Or give him or her up for adoption. How can people live with themselves after murdering a baby? Google the "silent scream" if you believe abortion is ok so you can see how the baby tries to escape the vacuum and you can see them breaking the baby in pieces.

I rent out my basement to this couple and everyday the girl comes upstairs into my house, sometimes 3-4 times a day. i went downstairs one time when i heard her come up but that time she was only dropping my mail off on the kitchen counter, but why would she come up to my house more than once? i mean, is she "borrowing" food? untensils? plates? it's getting to be pretty annoying because i dont even feel privacy in my own home knowing that she's coming in and out of my house as she pleases.

i guess reason why i'm not asking her directly is since i already asked her once, i dont wanna make it seem like i suspect her of doing something wrong, or if she is doing something wrong, i wanna catch her in the act. like i more than anything, it's just annoying. when i run in to her, it's not we're friends, so it's awkward if i'm just relaxing and she comes up, i'm thinkin, WTF are u doing!

so............is it illegal? is it unethical to set up a camera in my own home? i live in marylan

Aren't real laws unbreakable rules, like the laws of nature once broken they are therefore proved false(a lie)?

Isn't the refusal to accept truth/reality(denial) the definition of insane? (old Websters)

Could this explain why all US courts refuse to accept truth and only permit "facts" to be heard(so they can cut and paste them to create their version of supposed truth/reality)?

Today at school my son was talking to a friend during PE. Another student came up from behind him and stabbed him in the chest (mid chest to the right of the sternum) with and ink pen. There is a small puncture wound along with some swelling. The school did tell me that I have every leagl right to press charges. My question is, is this battery or attempted murder or what? I will be going to the police station in a few hours when my husband gets home from work. Any advice?
Thanks.
