Law & Ethics - October 2007

I am an Evangelical Christian and am acutely aware that many things done in the Bible would be quite illegal in modern society.
For example, Jacob having more than one wife (polygamy) and they just happen to be his cousins.
Can you cite a few examples?

I live in CA and I'm looking for a room via craiglist and I found some pretty decent rooms. (Both apartments and rooms in houses) But most of them state no overnight guests. Is that legal? I mean, I'm paying for the place. So its my room. So shouldn't a girlfriend or friends be able to stay a night or two every once in a while? I understand there should be a limit on how much/long they stay. But to so NO overnight guests? Is that legal?



Just curious.

ok theres a guy who at the time was 24 and his gf was 14 and they had intercourse. they stayed together for 3 years and lived with her mother and paid bills at that home. they recently just broke up about 4 months ago. anyway an investigator went to her work and told her he was working on a case against her ex. he asked alot of questions to her about how many times they had sex and how old she was when it happened and she was honest about it and she signed the statement. they also talked to her mother and she said that she consented to it (even though we know here in the state of texas it dont matter) now my question is if the girl is unwilling to cooperate against him if it goes to court can he still be convicted of statutory rape? if he pleas not guilty..she doesnt want him to get into trouble even though they arent together anymore...what could happen?

Tough topic, but I think it isn't good. I got into a discussion recently with a couple other people about it.

Personally, if I found out for some reason or another me and my wife couldn't have kids, we wouldn't have any artificial way since that is wrong and not natural.

What do you guys think?

I am unsure if I have a warrant or not. I left one state and have been out of the country in Mexico for three months. I am now relocating to another state when I return. Can I be arrested when crossing the border for a financial related felony charge? Also can I be arrested in one state on another states warrant? If so, what happens to my two kids if they are with me. I am a single Mom leaving a bad relationship and need to make sure my kids are safe with someone if they do arrest me.

If you are really poor and have no real assets, would the courts make you pay for damages in a lawsuit against you.

I got a message on the internet as follows:
Muni security guards are downtown, (Powell Street),
checking your Proof of Muni Payment or of course your Muni Pass!

I boarded a J Church Train at 24th Street/Church on Saturday, and was waved on by the driver, as he refused to take my fare, his window and gate were closed, I followed his instructions only to be apprehended at Powell Street station, by a Muni employee who didn't listen to my story nor would she or her supervisor check on my story.

I NOW have a court case, don't let this happen to YOU!

The fine could be as much as $500.00!

So you have to drive up to the street a little bit to make sure no cars are coming well , I did that , and a speeding truck crashed into me... ??? confused never gotten into a car accident !!

I think what the white kid did was wrong, but that it is worse for six kids to beat the **** out of another kid, no matter what he did. I think attempted murder is too harsh of a sentence, but the charges should not be dropped. I am not racist, I would feel the same way if a bunch of white kids beat up a black kid.

If the races in this trial were reversed do you honestly think that the white kids that beat up the black kid would have even the slightest chance of getting the charges dropped and have large rallies everywhere.

The lawyers for Britney Spears should have never agreed to a drug test. As soon as ordered by the court, Britney's coucil should have admitted to the judge that Britney would not pass a drug test. That would have been one less thing the court can use against her now! Any ideas?

Can this be true? He made up a will in 2000. He amended it in 2003 where as the Kidney foundation got 70% and the kids to split the rest. She (his wife, not my mother) says that he signed everthing over to her before he died and now there is nothing to probate. He had 2 houses, land, and a 3 bay shop full of costly machinery. I had to send off to the clerk of courts myself to get a copy of the will. There was quite a bit of money back in 2003. Even if, as she says, there is nothing to probate, wouldn`t it have to go before a court to sign off on it? Thank you for your time and help.
