Law & Ethics - November 2007

What's the deal with all these online sites that are selling packages on how to get rich online but they're using fake pictures? Like they'll use stock photos and say it's "Mark Warren's" package when the picture of Mark Warren is from a royalty-free photo site. Isn't that fraud?

I mean I know you can write books under a pseudonym or whatever but doesn't this cross the line? They're telling you that photo is of the person who created the program they want you to buy when that's not the person at all. How is that not fraud?

i was ordered to do 50 hours of community service in february and it is now november. i am starting my community service tomorrow but was wondering if there is a time frame in which it needs to be completed. I have read some other answers and a lot of people said they had to complete it in 6 months. If there is a time that it needs to be done can i get in contact someone and tell them i'm in the process of doing it?

I dont make much money and my employers said they will only pay me $25 a day for jury duty service. Thats LESS than the $40 the court would pay me!

Should I just say "No" on the question "Will your employer pay you", so I can get $40 instead of the $25? I'm confused. HELP!

Years ago, I got my US passport by going to the passport office, standing in line for about 30 minutes, paying about $30 and poof, there it was, I was done. Now, I'm trying to get a passport for my daughter to take a class trip and not only will they make us wait about 3 weeks to get it, but it's going to cost almost $100 for the thing.

WHY does it cost so much? Where is that money going, what's the justification for charging so much? In this day of computer records readily available online, why should a mass produced little book with an instant photo require this much time and money to process, and who decided it was fair to charge that much?

I find it rather alarming.

If you're from another country, how was it there? Are passports expensive and slow to get?

I see a perfectly good reason for keeping the government out of religion, but why are they (and the left) so keen on keeping religion out of the government.
Pictures of Jesus must be taken down in public schools because if a Muslim walks by, it might offend him. I thouht that the Constitution meant they you can't descriminate religion, not block it out. The school did not prevent a pciture of Muhammad from being hung up, it's just that nobody wanted to hang a picture of him up.

I have read about obscenity and how uploading and downloading porn into and from your home is a federal crime under current laws. If you were to do either, would there be a chance you would get caught or have the government approach at your front door demanding your arrest?

I purchased a car 21 days ago. The dealership drug their feet on getting the car funded from the lender. The car was wrecked and may be totaled. So I have a possibly totaled car on my hands that the bank hasent funded the financing for. So NOW I get a call from the dealership saying they are missing a piece of information they need to get the loan funded. (this only after I found out that the car was never registered in my name, and had trouble getting it towed. I had to call the dealership) I told them what happened and they are basically wanting me to lie about the car to the finance company to get the car funded. They never came out and said it, but they are jumping around the subject. I don't know what to do. The car isn't in my name. My insurance company is paying for it which is fine because I wrecked it. I just don't want to lie, and now I have to jump hoops because the dealer drug their feet. What should I do and what is the law. Should I just keep the finance co. out of it?

Even I think OJ Simpson was at least responsible for the deaths of Ron Goldman and Nichole Simpson. However as a US citizen he has the right to the presumption of innocence. Could you judge him fairly, or would you make him pay for what you may think he did earlier? Before you answer these are the same rights that are afforded each of us. Don't answer if he is guilty or not on this charge yet .... you have not heard all of the evidence.

WE are a total of eight in our family. My mom passed away without leaving a will and my mom was a widow. One of my brothers had been leaving with my mom for a while and he thinks that he is entitled to everything. I don't really care much about the will or whatever. My main concern is that my moms' home is not lost; after all that hard work she put into it.

She did not show up in court today?

This morning, we were to be in court and she did not show up. I called her to remind her last night and she told me she was in another state. I found out just now she was here in town through her aunt. She just did not go to court. This was for Non-support. She has not paid any of her child support since I was awarded custody. What happens next? I can prove she was in our town. She does have a few warrants out for her arrest.
