Law & Ethics - March 2007

Which would you rather have? A guilty man found not guilty of his crime, or an innocent man in jail?

Now with that in mind...

If one twin of a set of conjoined (siamese) twins murdered somebody (and the other had absolutely no part in it, and actually tried to stop it), what should be done? Should they be sent to jail, or should they be free?

The question sounds silly, but it's a serious one. So please, serious answers only please.

I can't find anything on any search engine. I found something on Wikipedia that said that it's illegal in some states, because they have laws that state that someone who is not in possesion of a law degree cannot say that they are a practicing attorney.

I signed up for Neopets Premium a while back. My account had got banned. I figured that they'd stop billing but they haven't. For about a year, they have been billing me $5 dollars a month. They won't let you contact them on their help page. How can I get them to stop?

My original case is in federal court for charges of Title VII. But Federal Court denied my motion to add 151B state law of anti-discrimination because miscommunication. As a result, I filed another compaint in state court for charges of 151B and various tort claims. State court dismissed my case because the pending action in Federal Court and I filed appeal.

However, after a month, the federal court dismissed my Title VII claims and declined the various tort claims. Based on the declined tort claims, I filed another complaint to state court. Now defendant filed motion to dismiss because my pending action in the state appeal court.

What should I do?
If they continued dismissing my case for pending action, there will never have actual judgment for me.

I appreciate your help.
