Even if the person seconding a motion rescinds his second, it is my understanding that the motion must be brought to a vote (or a logical conclusion) after a second has been made. Is this correct?

In MD, a convicted assassin's lethal injection execution has postponed because he was an iv drug user and could experience pain during the execution. I am confused...If he was gravely ill wouldn't a hospital have to give him an iv also?

We believe we have a case against a trustee for, among other things, breach of feduciary responsibility. He was the appointed trustee in a chapter 11 case, and mis-represented the position of the company to push for liquidation. He told the banks that were financing the company that he had buyers, and would be able to expedite the sale if the banks would step aside and allow him to force a chapter 7 wherein he would have complete control. It's been 20 months, nothing's been sold, no creditors have been paid, the collateral was released to the banks but they have been unable to sell it. The principals are out 3 plus million dollars and a company which had a 25 year history was completely destroyed. Now, the trustee is lying low. A new judge has been appointed, and it appears that they are just trying to make the whole thing go away. Read more about the debacle on PACER/Hampshire Distributors, Inc.

I live in an apartment complex. Rules and Regulations and the Lease states clearly that our problem is a violation. Our problem is between 2 and 10 teenagers standing in front of my building for hours at a time flipping their skateboards. This is so loud in our apartment they may as well scream at the top of their lungs continual. I do not mind them skateboarding and flipping it once in a while as long as they don't loiter in one place for hours like in front of my apt. This wouldn't be a problem but they are keeping my husband up when he needs to sleep they have even done this at 1 in the morning Leaving him 3 hours of sleep to work on. The sherriff won't do anything and our apt managers won't do anything either. It's a violation and banned from the property but there is no conciquences if they continue. If they would ride it like a skateboard should be it would be fine. What can I do when moving isn't an available option right now to keep my sanity? Without having to leave home.

I live in California. My need to use the restroom has never been an issue. Now because my bosses feel they have not met their financial goal this year, they are looking for reasons to blame. Case in point. They have now decided I take breaks longer than i should, and that is not documented and simply not true. At any rate, now they tell me if I go to the bathroom, if I have to just run to the bathroom real fast before a client is due in office, i am the only employee to 3 financial advisors, well that is now considered part of my 10 minute break. Is this legal, if i have to go pee, is this ok for them to subtract from a 10 min break for the time? and well we are talking about bodily fluids here, and what if you start your period, are you just supposed to sit there and gush now? geeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzze. very uncomfortable situation for me, 3 men bosses ganging up on me today in a meeting telling me they are making these changes. I need to know my rights.

Shortly after school began in September, the teacher told his sixth-period students at Kearny High School that evolution and the Big Bang were not scientific, that dinosaurs were aboard Noah’s ark, and that only Christians had a place in heaven, according to audio recordings made by a student whose family is now considering a lawsuit claiming Mr. Paszkiewicz broke the church-state boundary.

“If you reject his gift of salvation, then you know where you belong,” Mr. Paszkiewicz was recorded saying of Jesus. “He did everything in his power to make sure that you could go to heaven, so much so that he took your sins on his own body, suffered your pains for you, and he’s saying, ‘Please, accept me, believe.’ If you reject that, you belong in hell.”

Legislators flout their promises and even work against what they have assured the electorate. Some of them are highly corrupt and even indulge in crimes and get involved in criminal cases. Does any country (where there is democratic set up) has legal provision for their withdrawal by the people entailing fresh election for that constituency - in case he does not volunteer to resign on moral grounds after having come to adverse public criticism of serious nature nor his party pressurises him to resign?
If such a provision is available in any country, how often it has been used and with what impact - I mean if the need for such action reduced due to legislators behaving more righteously?

My ex is a jerk and my hubby went by their house and dropped a letter in their mail box to let them know of our upcoming plans for the holiday and we just received a call from the county sherriffs dept. that my ex wants to make a report that my hubby tampered with his mail box and that it is a federal offense (I know that tampering with mail is). But seroiusly how much trouble can you get into for dropping off a letter in someones mail box? The content is not in dispute, there was nothing in the letter that would cause alarm or concern, just an informative letter on the holiday schedual. But what could be in store for us?

Five years ago we really did not give a second thought to the islamic facist radical murderers. We were told islam is peace but even now there is no relief from the murders. We were told to learn more about islam. Well we have:: it is a satanic cult that condones; Lies, Killing, Bigotery, Rape, Torture and most any evil, to continue their disgusting racist discrimination and MORE.
Well I fear my life: even more today; because because Congress has allowed someone to take an oath of office on book of faith (satans) that clearly states KILL the infadels and denies all the freedoms that women have fought for here and many other carnal violations that are in violation of our laws.
If this organization by it's published books and it's news reports on telivison, threathens my life and any other Christian, Jew even the Atheist, Don't we have a discrimination and harasment suit???
It has disrupted my life and occupies my daily life from the TV world news.

I own 2 condos and he wants the 2 properties ...one for the temple as a donation and the other as a place for his daughter in the future when she grows up!!I told him I would conter-claim and he has told me that there is no claim and he will be awarded money. I need to hire a lawyer and go to court and when he is finished with me I will have nothing.
