Law & Ethics - March 2007

Hi, I am 16 years old and live in Nevada. I have a boyfriend that is 20 years of age who lives in California. I really like him alot. I tried visiting him over a weekend but my parents caught me and threaten to put him in jail. He bought me a plane ticket and i was going to stay at his house. I was wondering how big of a trouble he can get in and is it okay for me to still talk to him over the phone with out getting him in trouble? It wasn't like it was my first time visting him, he is not at all a danger to me... i had a chance to meet his family. I just don't want him to mess up his records because of me, so please tell me what is right to do and not to do.


I know him for over a year and a half, started going out for about four months.

im really clueless into what to do, please help. thanks

As I was approaching the till, I slipped and my right ankle turned over and I landed on my left knee. I was so embarrassed and just wanted to pay and get out of the shop. The cashier on the next till said "there must be something down there because the lady before slipped there", I am returning to the shop today to complete and accident report form upon their request. I feel that they have been negligent by not checking what was on the floor when the first lady slipped.

way or another, i mean you don,t have to go to court to get justice as people who are horrible end up with no one liking them.

I know that this is mostly if not all of my fault, but I still want to get my money back irregardless!

On Feb 27th, I sent $550 to an email called edstaxidermy2@yahoo.com. She first told me to sent it to edstaxidermy@yahoo.com but Paypal said that it could not receive money, so they locked it right? So I sent the payment toedstaxidermy2@yahoo.com. She thanked me for the payment and said she'd ship on the 2nd and email me the tracking number and I'd get the laptop latest by the 7th. Since then, I haven't gotten the package or heard a single email from her.

I went to Paypal and on the 3rd, I started a Paypal complain and a claim and they right now say that if she does not give any contact by the 13th, that they'd put the claim in my favor. She hasn't contacted me so far and probably won't but if they do decide it in my favor, can they get my money back? Do you think she just started the account to steal my money and then abandon it! I hope the money is still in her account! Help!

Yes, i believe it is bad or wrong to smoke with children in a car because they have no say over it BUT this is just another step for lawmakers to tell Americans what we can or can't do! What's next? No smoking at home? Time limits on how long WE are on the net? Adults may be looking at something that kids souldn't see!!! I am 34 and my parents smoked and i am still fine!!!! Somethings should still be left to parents to control!! Like spanking children! Now.. that's abuse!!!! Kids are getting out of control and with the gov't stepping in telling parents what they can or can't do is making it worse!! The "older" generation on here most likely will agree!!! Smoking IS bad for anyone but let parents be parents and raise their children!!!! Anyway,to fine or punish one for smoking in their car they work to pay for and what alot of us and others have fought in the military for is just the "sound" of our FREEDOM getting "quiet"! THIS IS THE LAND OF FREEDOM!!!!!!!! RIGHT?

A law that stated that the prison inmates on death row should only be put to death with family and loved ones at thier side?
Let me explain a little farther. I do not think it is right to feed revenge back in to a society by letting victoms family be present at executions. I think it should be enough that the person is dead, and they should not have to witness the execution personally. I believe this just feeds vengence in to the society as a whole.

Therefore: I think either the criminal should be put to death with only his family there to view it or by himself, alone.

Joint bank account belongs to Party A and B. Garnishee order issued by a bank is for Party A only for a transaction which Party B was not involved in. Can the garnishee order still stand and the bank holds all monies in the account since the money may belong to Party B as well?

If you say they do, in some speciffic war, by selling lies and propaganda themselves, or later through the end product called fabricated news, and it's consequences are as deep and lasting as the everlasting hatred and distrust it causes between confronted people (aside the economic aspect), would that be a not ended war against the guilt of journalists? Should Christine Amanpour sleep deeply as she does now, and is it moral to let her get away and do more damage? Should the destroyed people and their lives, allow such monsters like her and her CNN to spread new destruction in the world? Should they be judged and dealt upon with the popular political-juditiary formula: "Knew about it or was in possition to know about and did nothing or did not enough..."? Where does their responsibility start and where does it end? Should international law follow the growing destructivity and importance of media warfare?

This week it is reveiled that the Republican Administration under Bush has continued to spy on innocent Americans illegally, not by the hundreds, but by the 100,000 thousands. Also, Bush is not taking care of Veterans of the Wars in Iraq and Afganistan.
Also on display is the cut-outs of Walter Reed Hospital, the Troops. Do you Republicans really doubt that the higher ups knew what happened at the Hospital in the same town as the White House?
One thing for sure, the Bush Administration makes it there business to know what is happening in their town. Just go sit in Lafayette Square for a half and hour and notice the weirdness! No one moves in that space without many eyes on them. They knew about Walter Reed and our wounded troops. Republicans, are you asleep?
I dare you to go to the White House area. You will have people asking you questions. One after the other. They are taking your temperature, picture and voice recording. Check it out! They know Washington DC.

I currently work at a salon in Orange County, California. One of my clients currently has MS. Over the years, her health has declined greatly. She now can only move around by using an electric wheel chair. Her doctor has already told her to have her steering wheel equipped so that she can drive with that. Her feet barely work at all anymore. She has yet to do so (it has been a year), but she continues to tell the doctor that she is going to the lessons to have the special equipment installed. Her daughters are so concerned that they hired a fulltime driver for her, but she purposely chased the person away because she insists on driving. Her car is COVERED in dents. She even drove through the storefront of her drycleaners. She drove through the french doors of her home. I know that if she continues this way, not only will she kill herself, but probably an innocent bystander as well. Please, I need to know how to have her CA driver's license revoked by the DMV.

State: Arizona

I sued this guy that is trying to say that I am an "Agent" of his and not an employee. Per

http://www.azleg.gov/ArizonaRevisedStatutes.asp?Title=23

ARS 23-355, I should be entitled to my pay AND treble damages. But if I actually am an Agent and not an employee, am I still entitled? (I believe that I am because I used to know a guy that did the same exact thing/situation and I think he was successful). If not, can I just amend the complaint to ask for punitive damages?

Thank you.

I think an execution should look like an execution, not surgery. Part of the punishment should be fearing the execution process. That is how it used to be. But, with lethal injection there is nothing to fear. It is like a relief. I think they should bring back the harsher methods.
