Law & Ethics - April 2007

I believe recycling should be a federal law. In the long run. it is cheaper than using landfills, it is good for our environment, will make our citizens feel better about themselves, and is timely.

How do you feel about this ?

so they evolved more and turned darker if you will? If this is true, it proves the theory that racists are idiots. One has no control over color,its merely a factor of their environment. If any qualms are to be had, it should be over the other's culture correct?

My boyfriend has been granted every other weekend with his son. Recently his son’s mother told us that their son feels uncomfortable with me and does not want to come over because I am around. My boyfriend and i recently moved in together and it seems like his son and son's mother are upset about it. Anyhow, she has requested that my boyfriend find other living arrangements during the assigned weekends or she will not allow his son to see his father due to her not wanting her son to feel uncomfortable around me. Can she do that? Can she really go to court and demand that my presence be eliminated during their visits? If so do you suggest that we please her to keep things civil? What can we do with out making a big spectacle and returning to court? Or is the only way to handle this is by going to court?

would you support it if there was no suffering by the prisoner - like if they got an injection of morphine just before dying and died with a smile? or is suffering a big part of the death penalty? Does it make you happy to know they suffered?
How do you feel about the 8th ammendment?

and when you go to use the card, you're denied access to your credit? When you call them they turn around and say you were actually not approved, despite them sending you a card already? What are the chances of winning this law suit, claiming inconvinience, embarassement on your part not forgetting, further damage to your credit? Anyone got hints?

I wasn't hurting anyone and didn't crash. Why is there a law against this if no one is harmed. I can understand if I had hit someone or crashed into a car or something. But all I had was a couple of beers and ran into a checkpoint right near princeton new jersey. Anyway, does anyone know a good drunk driving lawyer that can protect my rights and get me off this dwi? I would spend any amount on legal fees to make this go away and not have it hit my driving record. It's not like I was wasted, just had a few drinks and got pulled over by the police and given a breathylizer. They didn't even give me a roadside sobriety test. Also, should I hire an attorney in Princeton, or another town that is closer to the courthouse?

Is there no end to how many people think making a law against something they find offensive or unhealthy is not the way to go?

When, if you think ever, will people learn that health issues are best dealt with through education, not legislation?

How long does a DUI stay on your record? The mistake happend 6 years ago. I'm wondering to know if I can get a job that requires no DUI's (on your record or can they find out otherwise?) I turned 21 and even 25 since then. It's a valet parking job. Can you also have 3 speeding tickets in 5 years, and none in 3 years? Then the 6 year old MISDOMEDOR, not felony, of fleeing police in a motor vehicle. I drove 80,000 miles as a courier, ticket free after all this, great huh? thanks

Our landlord is asking us his tennants to pay the bill for water and sewage on the apartment we rent from him. We pay all utilities (Heat, hot water, electric) as well. I always thought that Water and sewage were the legal responsibility of the landlord.
We are in NJ. Any help would be great.

On a traffic stop in Illinois I declared I had a gun. The cop took the gun (which was in a zipped casing in the back seat) and ammunition from another bag. I wasn't charged with anything for transporting the gun, and the serial number cleared. However, they confiscated the gun (I got an evidence sheet saying they took it) until I could provide proof of ownership(a receipt or something). I mean to contact legal advice, but from a general view does this seem like an illegal seizure?

The tenant's apartment is in the basement. He has lived there for aproximately 3 years and he moved into the apartment when there was a different owner. There is also a clause in the lease that states that the place has not been tested for radon. Also, the guy is a heavy cigarette smoker. (No record as of yet as to where the guy lived previously)

For the record, I feel aweful about it but at the same time I don't want to see a lawsuit.

Relations between your company and the call center have broken down. First, your company let the call center borrow a new laser copy machine that the call center has refused to return. Your company has also learned that the call center has been telling its customers that your company has been cheating its customers and breaking contracts, which is untrue.
So specifically, the president wants to know if your company has any civil tort actions that it can bring against the call center.
Plz provide me with references as well....Thank you for your honesty!

I received a citation in Santa Clara County, CA for Violation of California Vehicle Code 22451, Railroad Grade Crossings.

According to the California DMV website, the fine for first infraction is $100.00 (http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d18/vc42001_16.htm)

My Courtesy Notice from Santa Clara County designates bail as $375.00.

Is the county able to assess its own $275 fine on TOP of the state fine of $100?

Should I go to court and try to get the fine reduced?

Help!

Thanks in advance.
