about a year ago my father owned the car that is now mine. While at a mans house doing some repair work the man backed into the car while parked and put a huge dint in the car. The car has since been signed over to me. We have tried and tried to get this man to report this to his insurance company and give us the money that is rightfully ours. We have given him several qoutes to repair the vehical. He is looking at about 1,300$ to fix it. He refuses to answer our calls, or call us back. When we do get him on the phone he says its been to long.. i am not paying. Or other bs excuses. I have been told to file a civil suit against him. Will it hold up in court having been so long ago, and having been switched to another persons name since the accident.

If the dignity of a human being is not important enough to protect by statue and law, then what does protect human diginity?
Do we base our Laws and our Constitutions on our fears alone?

I am the president of my colleges young democrats club. we want to use a picture on our club t-shirts. It depicts a donkey and it says "democrats are sexy" however it was used as a joke piece on the "Daily Show" Our clubs advisor says that it may be copywrited and we would have to get permission to use it from comedy central, which would be tendious.
My question is does the use of this emblem/icon on our t-shirts fall in line with the "fair use" or satirical (parody)statutes?

It would only be worn by our group members on our campus, which only consists of about a couple dozen people, and not mass produced.

I believe that it is unfair. An example would be O.J. Simpson. He was found NOT-GUILTY, but paid millions. I call BS on that one. I believe he is innocent. If he did it, props to getting away with it my man.

He was tortured, held in a coffin sized chamber for 10 months. It's all very disgusting, he was visiting the US and they "captured" him, asked him questions, and I'm guessing he didn't give them the authorities the right answers so they sent him to Syria, where they could torture him and not be under American law... What in the hell is our government coming to!? Is BUSH so blind that he thinks that he can do NO WRONG, he's an arrogant jackass, that is ruining people's lives. American's, innocent Muslim's, the countries he's in to establish "democracy". How can he enforce democracy in another country when our own democratic ways are being distorted and dwindling. When does Mr. George W. Bush get held ACCOUNTABLE for his ignorant actions!?

Does it really exist in this country or is it just a bunch of words put together to make us feel safe?

I know it's a little bit cliche, but this question is a good illustrative point....

If there was a bomb about to go off in an American elementary school and you had the guy that planted the bomb in custody, would you be willing to torture the location of the bomb out of him in order to diffuse it, or would you condemn all of those innocent children to a terrible, painful, violent death ala Beslan, Russia?

I bet that the most vocal opponents of "dubya's torture plans" on Yahoo Answers avoid answering this question like the cowards that they are.

I just want to know what everyone's take on it was. Personally, I didn't see any clear evidence that he murdered his late wife, Kathleen Atwater. He was mainly tried for having an affair outside of his marriage. So, tell me what you think please.

I want actual answers that show some thought went into them. If I see any answers that are insulting to ME, then you just might be reported. Don't be stupid.

My husband was convicted of second degree murder of a child. His ex-girlfriend actually did it. But she testified against him. She already had a case pending on her in California for child abuse. His court appointed lawyer convinced him to sign a plea bargain for 10 to 17 years because he was facing 30 years. He was scared the jury would believe her so he signed the plea. The verdict came back not guilty, but the judge sent him to jail anyway. He got 17 years. His attorney did not advise him about how to appeal his case. By the time he found out how to put in for an appeal, too much time had passed. He has a flat sentence so he can't put in for clemensy. Somebody help me find him an attorney so I can him out of there!

My friends daughter was playing a supervised game in school..they were jumping around using hands and legs and she unintentionally knocked another 6 year old student into the wall and it broke a portion of his tooth. The school acknoweledged that it was an accident. They told the injured student's parents and they called my friend demanding payment for the tooth. I feel that this was an activity that obviously put children in danger..accidents happen however if there is any liability I feel that it would be on the school's part. The other parents said they would see her in court...What course of action should she take to protect herself and do these parents have any right to sue her?? Thanks!

A good friend of mine has gotten into trouble with the law. She's a good person, just made some bad decisions with the wrong people. She is facing criminal charges, and needs a lawyer, but is not in a financial position to pay for one outright. I know that some lawyers take on isolated cases pro-bono; how would she go about locating those kind of lawyers? Any websites, resources, physical locations, etc. would be helpful. She lives in Atlanta, GA.

What is the legal term for: when one thing is bad, everything is bad? For instance, a partial confession is obtained before the suspect is mirandized, when the officer asks, "what did you do?" Then the suspect is mirandized and chooses to continue with confession and other details. In court, the judge supresses the confession, because the first part of the confession was obtained "illegally". The whole confession is spoiled because one part is bad, so the whole is bad....what is this called? Help!!!
