I was side swipped yesterday afternoon and my car is totaled. I was backing out of a church parking lot and was going into the center lane of the street. And that's when he hit the rt. back side of my car. The bad thing about this is my son was inches from being hit. He came out with eight stitches on his face and glass in his head. Thank god he's going to be okay but I got a ticket for improper backing. That was the only way out of this parking lot. Ive seen people do it time and time again there so I dont understand why I got the ticket. The guy was going to fast and couldnt slow down. It was raining out so I tried to brake but couldnt. I have court the 28th of Dec. and Im furious. Any suggestions would be helpful.

My ex stole my truck that he gave me and I want to sue him for taking my vehicle. I have the signed title and the key still, and I filed a police report when the vehicle was stolen. I have substantial proof that it was him and I can get more (an audio tape of him admitting to it if needed) because he still calls me. HE ADMITTS TO DOING THE CRIME!!! HELLO. Why is it so hard to find a lawyer. Please help. I know I have a case. Every number that I call refers me to another number. I want to sue him for at least $20,000 but I don't have much money and I need a pro-bono lawyer.

I live in another state than my brother and sister and after my mom died I came back home to be with my family and go back to work and left the probate and other details with my siblings (I trusted them) and instead of complying with the will, sell all assets and divide equally my brother bought my sister out and told me to go to hell so I received nothing from my parents will or personal property. They went against everything the will stated. How do I find information on how to sue them for what is mine. and how can they do whatever they want when I was on the will as an heir? They owe me about $30,000 and for the past 5 years my brother has been living in the house they were suppose to sell can I sue him for back rent? they also gained complete control over all the vehicles, rv's, property and left me with nothing. Help! I have always taken care of my kids on my own and those two have ALWAYS mooched off mom and dad and never paid them a single cent for living in their house.

The Best Law Enforcement

The LAPD, the FBI and the CIA are all trying to prove
that they are the best at apprehending criminals. The
President decides to give them a test. He releases a
rabbit into a forest and each of them has to catch it.

The CIA goes in. They place animal informants throughout
the forest. They question all plant and mineral
witnesses. After three months of extensive
investigation, they conclude that rabbits do not exist.

The FBI goes in. After two weeks with no leads, they
burn the forest, killing everything in it -- including
the rabbit -- and make no apologies. "The rabb

If so, please share your experience with me. Do you think that the jury selection reflected the diversity of your community?
Do you think people were prejudiced and biased toward a certain race, sex, way of behavior.
If you ever were to be tried, would you rather a jury trial or a bench trial (one that is done by a judge)

I went on holiday, first time in years and was pulled over by police, I was booked for driving unlicensed, my license had expired by five days, gasp! I simply forgot!

I never recived a reminder notice, I live in NSW, Australia
I have been driving for 25 yrs and not even a parking ticket,

I asked for some leniency regarding the $400 fine, RTA said no! It was my responsibility to renew it.

should I go to court to try to get the fine lessened? Has anyone else had this experience?

I do not have the money for the fine, the police said I would just get cautioned but that was not the case

The police have contacted me because someone who has my license plate number has accused me of throwing something at their car. The officer contends that the person in that other car need only identify my picture from a lineup he assembled to be able to charge me with criminal damage. This seems bogus to me. First, how would he have my picture? ( I have only talked with him by phone and I have never been in trouble before) Second, how does he, or a prosecutor for that matter, exclude the possibility that this person isn't just mad about something else I did...out there on the road, it doesn't take much...and now they're making up accusations to cause me grief/ and or to cause me to have to pay for pre-existing damage to thier vehicle? The only thing I know to do is to avoid answering thier questions, period. This is under Ohio law. In whatever case it seems improbable to me that anybody could just pick a car , write down its plate #, and make such claims. Anybody have any ideas?

While on probation if I had it excused by a doctor? I've been sick ever since Saturday. My mom said she would make an appointment with a doctor tomorrow on Monday if I am not doing any better.

I figure two things; first, it is obvious that products with 30 to 40 % markups are not benefiting the consumer, in this case sick people, and that this is a form of exploitation I'm not okay with. A large part of the reason they can charge this rate is the temporary monopoly granted by patents which provide the consumer nowhere else to go. This artificially drives up the cost of healthcare, as with any monopoly.

Second, you can't do away with it. It is quintessentially American to believe in entrepreneurship and the rewards from great discoveries seem to us well-deserved. Even more important though is the fact that the prospect of those lucrative patents is what drives research and development (which is a form of venture capitalism), and it does it exceedingly well. There must be a reward there to provide financial motivation for research expenditures.

I'm just proposing we shrink the size of that reward, which is now excessive to the detriment of the consumer. Any thoughts?

My son has nothing to do with his father (or vice versa I suppose). After many years of fighting, the father has finally decided that signing over his paternal rights will be more beneficial to him than court battles for child support. However, I have been told by a few people that the state of California will not award full guardianship to a single parent, so as not to "bastardize" the child. Is this true? If so, are there any loopholes? If it is NOT true, where do I start and what is the process?
