Her song "The Stars Are Blind" sounds exactly like a song UB40 covered called "Kingston Town". Same melody, different words.

UB40 paid royalties to the original song writer Lord Creator, who is now deceased. Can Lord Creator's record label sue Paris Hilton?

My husband is paying child support on 2 children, one is his and one isnt. We just had a child ourselves. Is there a way we can fight paying child support for the child thats not really his? He keeps telling me that because he signed the birth certificate for her and its been 6 years, that theres nothing we can do, that hes stuck paying for her.. is this correct? We dont have enough money to support our newborn because of the child support pymts he makes. I have a full time job and so does he. they say we "make too much" for assistance, but we dont see it because it goes to child support. he never gets to see this child either, the mother wont let him, but he has rights to visit.

an acquaintance of mine was recently arrested by police on behalf of the FBI for the charge of conspiracy... I'm not very familiar with the law and law enforcement, but my question is two part. do police normally arrest people on behalf of the FBI? and also what does the Federal charge of conspiracy entail? and for all the comedians, it has nothing to do with 9/11...

A polar bear in a german zoo has rejected and abandoned her cub, the zoo decided to raise the cub on their own. The animal activists have criticized them by saying that

"in the wild the cub would be left to die and thats what the zoo should do."

According to the activists the zoo is getting in the way of nature. I thought avtivists were supposed to care about an animals well being. Are they running out of things to do? Inquiring minds want to know.

I want to produce copies of a specialised map with markers and places of interest aimed at a target audience, distributed for free.
I need a map to work with, or produce my own.
What are the laws governing the reproduction of an existing map (ie A-Z, google map or other) and distributing for free, but selling ad space around the map itself thus making potential income?

I work with someone and am being requested to give a deposition on his behavior which happened 2-3 yrs ago. I made a statement to someone and dont even remember it because my stress level was so high. My dad was very sick and dying and I was dealing with my wild daughter who was in a psychiatric facility for self mutilation and honestly, I do not remember saying what this lady says I said.
I already spoke to the attorney for the facility where I work and they told me to expect legal papers to give a deposition.

Now that I've got your attention, I'll ask my question: what, if any, are the limits of Congress' subpoena power?

We have discussed concerns over possible overreaching by the President in the context of surveillance, etc. So is there a similar concern regarding Congress abusing its power? Why or why not?

I viewed a home with my realtor last night and as anybody in the market for homes know, the owners leave while the realtor shows you the home. Anyway, I was looking at a very nice house and noticed a crock-pot filled with beef stew on the counter.

I went to view this home right after work so did not have time for my supper. While the realtor was going through his checkpoint of the home I grabbed a fork and helped myself to a fair portion of the beef stew directly from the crock-pot (I did not want to dirty any dishes).

I placed a bid on the home and from what I understand by far the highest. However, I got a call from my realtor stating the owners refused my bid because they knew I ate some of the beef stew in the crock-pot. Realtor stated they were "disgusted" I ate the food.

My question - is this legal? Can they NOT sell me the house just because of this?

Without legal advice of any kind, and with coercion, parents signed a "voluntary" relinquishment of custody to the grandparents. This was following several false reports to cps, one attempted family abduction, pressuring the father to file a fraudulent divorce petition, and finally running with the kids. Grandparents then file for "emergency" custody.. concealing other prior events, and covering up actual motives. And that is just a brief summary of the lies told.
Attorneys, please - what is your thoughts on this? Likelihood that parents can get agreement vacated, on grounds of fraud? After how long? Parnets continued to be pressured into belief that it was "legal".
