Law Questions and Answers

Should a just society own a death cost?


Answers: There is a terrific website for students and debaters at http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.

How can a society that calls itself lately use a punishment of dubious effectiveness contained by preventing or reducing crime while, at the same time, risking the execution of innocent citizens. Whatever the definition of just society, human beings are by character, flawed and make mistakes.

You don't hold to condone brutal crimes or want the criminals who commit them to avoid a harsh punishment to ask whether the passing penalty prevents or even reduce crime and whether it risks killing innocent general public.

124 people on release rows have be released with proof that they be wrongfully convicted. DNA is available in smaller quantity than 10% of all homicides and isn’t a guarantee we won’t execute innocent nation. Here are some of the other things that a just society would own to contend with:

The release penalty doesn't prevent others from committing murder. No reputable study shows the extermination penalty to be a deterrent. To be a deterrent a punishment must be sure and swift. The passing penalty is neither. Homicide rates are sophisticated in states and regions that hold it than in states that don’t.

We hold a good alternative. Life in need parole is now on accounts in 48 states. It method what it says. It is sure and swift and on the odd occasion appealed. Life without parole is smaller amount expensive than the death cost.

The death cost costs much more than life surrounded by prison, mostly because of the legal process which is supposed to prevent executions of innocent citizens.

The death cost isn't reserved for the worst crimes, but for defendants with the worst lawyer. It doesn't apply to people near money. When is the last time a well-to-do person be on death row, tolerate alone executed?

The most significant thing just about race and the release penalty is that the see of the victim is what matter most. That is, if the victim is white, the defendent is much more potential to face the annihilation penalty than if the martyr is non-white.

The death cost doesn't necessarily help family of murder victims. Murder victim kith and kin members across the country argue that the drawn-out extermination penalty process is hurting for them and that life lacking parole is an appropriate alternative.

Problems with speeding up the process. Over 50 of the innocent empire released from death row have already served over a decade. If the process is speeded up we are sure to execute an innocent person.
no
but policy is NOT smart enough to find an alternative, plus americans love to see nation that they don't like to suffer and die.

my altenatives-
murderers spend their lives giving spinal column to society, like picking fruit contained by california, making all the materials used for system funded programs. and lots of other jobs to riddle needs for our country
Yes. We necessitate a death cost. It is a proven fact that executed criminals do not commit any more crimes. Unless...you spread their ashes...later, technically, that could be littering...I think...

Unpaid hotel bill... Can I go to detain?

I recently stayed at a hotel. I be charged a smoking in room duty and a bunch of other bogus charges. I was already completely unsatisfied near my stay. I disputed all of the charges near my credit card company, and left the hotel next to a fairly huge bill. A police officer called and threatened me near a warrant. Can I go to intern? What can Happen? I live in virginia.
Answers: You took services lacking the intent to pay. It can be considered nicking. Depends on whether the DA thinks the covering is worth pursuing.
Take them to court if you were dissatisfied, and they charge you.

They cant bring you to jail, its bit of the first ten amendments (bill of rights) of the constitution of America, assuming you were contained by America, It would be cruel and unusual punishment. =) Unless you committed a crime (like murder,hit and run, etc), which i assume you did not.

go an check it out.
Yes, you can be arrested and jailed.

It is call "theft of services".

And, the charges weren't bogus. If you be in a nonsmoking room, you shouldn't hold smoked.

And, if you had read the vocabulary and conditions of the hotel - clearly stated in your room - you would own known of the charges...
You can't budge to jail if this be all done next to cc as stated because I guarantee the hotel does have the money originally owed to them. If you stayed and the hotel have no cc on file and you ditched, later yes, there could be criminal charges.

I really repugnance to break it to you, but the cc company will side with the hotel 99% of the time. I be front desk manager at a honourably large hotel contained by a high tourist nouns for 6 years and we dealt next to alot of "chargebacks". Once we faxed in the copy of the signed registration form where on earth you signed for responsibility of the room, charges, etc. then the cc company have no choice but to accept it as a valid charge. That's not to speak that the cc company won't do something else for you, but the hotel will still keep the money you remunerated. You don't get money support if you bought something and "just didn't resembling it". You will usually only procure it back if it's a fraudulant purchase but the hotel will other have your signature from when you checked contained by.

Also, we imposed a $100 fee respectively time a guest smoked or took a pet in a NS room and the guest be required to initial this term at checkin. That be more proof for us that the guest was aware of the extra charge if the policy be broken.

Is it legal to shoot my neighbors' chickens?

Well, to be honest, I enjoy nothing against the chickens, it's the roosters that start an horrendous hullabaloo about three o'clock within the morning. And go on and on till noontime. I have tried hoseing them down beside my garden sprinkler to no avail. I have talk to my neighbor about the problem but he contained by return beat my valet, Anthony, beside a 5 iron. Now Anthony will not go outside the house and the uproar continues. I simply need to win a good night sleep.
Answers: Poor Anthony he will be scarred for enthusiasm. Well I shot my neighbor's kids with a bb gun. They be ok and it quieted them down considerably. The parents were a bit peeved but I lately sent them a friendly message something along the lines of swimming with the fishes. Good Luck
move.


they are merely chickens.
I doubt it's legal.
But if you must...
Start a fox sheep farm.
go subsequent door an tell them to return with rid of tha damn thang befoe you do...
You cant go round shooting everything that make a noise. Roosters do what roosters do--it aint their criticize. Try getting some ear plugs.
Hmmm... I think you purely need some mafia ties. They'll eradicate the rooster up to that time you know it!
We used to live next door to some population that raised chickens, our little Shih Zhus would other kill them
you can't shoot them
You can't properly shoot them, but if a "fox" or a "coyote" were to put away them, well that's a short time ago an act of God and there's nought the courts could do.
call the cops on those roosters. I saw one walking down the street surrounded by my neighborhood.
I love it!

try castration.
All you have to do is report him to the police for disturbing the peace. After so various reports if he continues he gets a nice fine slapped on him. I doubt he will want to keep hold of paying fines.

If you shoot his rooster you will be the one in trouble not him.
Your "valet" ???
Did you bid the cops when Anthony was worsted?

Perhaps your town has a uproar ordinance. Check it out.
You can't shoot the roosters. It's not their fault. They a short time ago do what comes naturally to them.
How something like drowning out the crowing with a white resonance machine?
if you hold a valet you should have well brought-up enough insulation that you can bring back a good night sleep. if not you enjoy priorities screwed up. i have chickens and they dont bother me and that inlcudes my roosters. wet the chicken with sea can kill them becasue you return with them sick and are you really sure you neighbor retalliated by doing that to your valet or did he just enjoy a problem with him to initiate with.

put on some ear plugs or business with it dont treat roughly animals because your a jerk.
Only if you drink them.

If you have neighbors near chickens it may just be time to move.
No it's not, but you are allowed to pluck, gut and cook them. HINT

If the person who file the police report for domestic voliance against them does not turn up to court.?


Answers: Does not matter whether they appear or not. The charges are brought more or less by the district attorney. The victim is unacceptable to withdraw charges.
The armour usually is put on the top shelf... "meaning" they release the case.

Should we legislate mandatory health insurance base on a sliding scale for lower income family?


Answers: The Health care is insurance driven and the system sucks beyond belief. Only the federal governing body can provide the coverage needed. Our health is human being decided by HMO's pimply twenty-five years olds stamping DENIED on the economically being of a nation contained by trouble. The coverage should be simple: A modest premium and your covered.
Private insurance companies are raping us (and we're not even gettin' kissed).
No...No where surrounded by the constitution does it say the federal Government is supposed to provide us next to HEALTH CARE!

They are supposed to ensure a reliable mail service, coin our money, and guard the country. That is it! All other concerns are to be left to the states.

I don't want the feds screw up health caution and making me pay for it. Just resembling Social Security. They will steal all the money and you will bring back a $hitty health attention to detail system.

.
The government and federal should be more concerned near creating medical care for everyone, not of late kids and old citizens. Right now i can not afford ANY type of condition care at adjectives and the state will ONLY help beside my son. I need medical precision too, and now beside the OVER FLOW OF BORDER JUMPERS I am loosing my job too.

Instead of building FENCES for them to HELP them get hold of to the USA they should be building a better health system for the AMERICANS by birth.-- not VISA.

Hugo Chavez has finally be told to shut up. By whom?

King Juan Carlos, of Spain, when Fat-Face called Spain's P.M. "a fascist". No one surrounded by the world has better credentials to do this than King J-C : he it be, when he was first placed on the throne by Franco, face by right-wing demands for the exclusion of communist reps in parliament, insisted that, as long a he be king, they would have equal rights of representation.
Answers: Yeah my wife go nuts when she saw that on the news tonight.
They be going at it way to quick for my poor Spanish but its her native tongue and she hate Chavez.
From the looks they were flashing it at respectively other I have impression King J-C might just abhorrence the little commie also

Is our system to messed up?

i mean it im pissed i get into a fightand wut happened wuz this fool come up to me and pushed me needless to say aloud i put him into a headlock and then i got2 light of day suspention and he got 1 daytime in arts school suspention after this happened to my homie a guy triedto jum him from down he hit him in the bak of the person in charge so my homie KNOKED HIS AZZ OUT my homie got 1 full week of suspention the otherguy get 2 days in university
How is this fair shouldnt the personage that through the first punch get surrounded by more trouble
Answers: If you were my kid, I would be on your side.

I other told my kids that I would be on them like stink on "yeah that" if they started fight. But I also told them that if someone else started it, then they should finish it.

I don't furnish a rat's *** what the school say or does, you did the right thing. True you might take punished, but there is more to duration than that --- and you have to live next to yourself. And you have to grasp the message across that it isn't wise for punks to mess beside you.

One other thing I skilled my kids --- life isn't celebration, and it never will be, so deal near it.
One person hitting another is assault. It take 2 to fight. Then those 2 individuals are guilty of assault.

This is social law.

Take aid.
Yes and no.
I doubt anyone is explaining this to you adequately. But, it's my attitude that they're punishing the fact that you and your friend took matter into your own hands.
Schools and the nation in authority at them are ultimately responsible for the well-being of the students gone in their precision.
If someone starts something with you and you establish to beat them senseless a bit than seeking help from an full-size authority figure, that authority integer would probably punish you more severely because you had the likelihood to seek give support to but did not do it.
Then again, if you truly feel that your arrangements or the actions of your friend be in self-defense, fairly than doling out your own form of justice, you should trade name a case to the system that have punished you. You might be surprised to learn that the 'system' will hear you out.
First, if you are 12, you are not supposed to be posting on Answers. The minimum age is 13.

Second, it sounds close to there is so much warfare going on all the time, that it's strong for the teachers or anyone to digit out who is doing what. YOU say they hit you first; I bet that's not what THEY read aloud. So maybe the punishments aren't fiesta in the stop because no one know who is telling truth.

Your 4 rules suck. I'm sorry that you touch that way and that your natural life is this hard, so immature. I hope you find another way to bar these problems soon, because returning violence next to violence will wind up up killing you some sunshine.

Employee to pay restitution for giving discounts??

My fiance be fired by Wilson's Leather after they claimed an audit revealed that he was giving to plentiful discounts to customers. Upon being fired, $400 be taken out of his paycheck after he admitted he give discounts. Now, three months later, he get a call from someone saw he owes Wilson's Leather restitution in the amount of $12,000 and they give him a file number and said they would dispatch him the paperwork. I don't understand why this is occurring, he didn't steal anything and it's not like he be standing at the door giving leather jackets away for free. He be a manager and he give discounts for damaged merchandise and to run into competitor's prices. They told him when he started that he as the manager have the right to give discounts where on earth he saw it fit. Apparently they have evidence of multiple transactions for smaller number than the ticket price-but why didn't they step in right away and hand over him a warning? Why examine it all attach up and then constraint restitution? Advice? Can we fight this??
Answers: Absolutely argument it. If he didn't steal and he was given discretion to allow discounts, afterwards they can't demand restitution. Also, they can't prove beyond a acceptable doubt that he was the one giving the discounts. It could be a appliance error, it could be another employee using his login. Get an attorney involved... they'll write a few mean letters and Wilson's can find someone else to cover their deficit.

The money taken from his previous discharge was not permitted as well. Even if he have stolen something, they can't just cart his pay away. There's a protocol for these things... he requirements to get some lend a hand.
Restitution can only be ordered by a JUDGE. After a criminal or civil proceeding finds one financially liable.

Any employer must own your permission to get ANY payroll withholding-you must agree in writing previously even taxes and workers comp can be taken out of your gross pay.
Taking $400 from the final check is BS, and unsanctioned without his compliance. I'm curious as to the core of the phonecall from 'somebody'. Sounds like a hokey fake-out attempt by the great house of Suede and Leather.
Tell them to put up, or shut up.
Unless he signed a terribly specific document committing not to give these discounts, this be not within of their faculty, I think they own extra-limited deducting money from his paycheck.
And immediately they claim he still owes more money, I think their pretension of collecting it is not enforceable. Actually , he could argue his $400 if you know a decent advocate who wont charge too much.
TRICKY ONE. I SPENT FORTY YEARS IN SALES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE AS WELL AS MANAGING A FEW STORES ALONG THE WAY. IN THIS CASE THOUGH IM NOT A LAWYER I WOULD SAY THIS ONE PRETTY MUCH HINGES ON THE ACTUAL REASONS HE GAVE THE DISCOUNTS. IF IN FACT THEY WERE ACTUALLY THE REASONS AS HE STATED THEM, AND THEY GAVE HIM THIS LATITUDE, AND HE WENT OVERBOARD FIRING IS A REAL OPTION FOR THE COMPANY. HOWEVER FINANCIAL RESTITUTION IN THIS CASE SHOULD ONLY BE CLAIMED BY THE COMPANY IF SOMETHING WAS SHADY IN HIS DEALINGS. ALSO IT UNLESS THIS IS DETERMINED THE COMPANY SHOULD GIVE HIM THE FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS BACK. GOOD LUCK BOB
I've managed a few retail shops within the past and I've also have the ability to tender discounts as long as I met the company guidelines. As a rule, the retail chain loves have the shop manager run into or exceed it's target figures but they also repugnance not making the profit margin they expect. Normally the headquarters know fairly against the clock through the computer system about serious shortages so it is extraordinary that they took so long to make a delayed restitution constraint. A few possibilities are possible. Your fiance may know more than he's comfortable admitting to you around illegal discounts beneath his watch. Another possibility is that the remaining Wilson's body may be involved in some out of place tactics themselves and hope to avoid total blame by fingering the former boss as very well. In either event, this retailer seem to have a sloppy accounting system.
$12K is a full lot of "discounts." Don't tell me that his entire house, including you, got handsome leather attire while he be employed by Wilsons.

The company could have potentially brought criminal charges for pinching by deception, but apparently kept the issue internal or didn't feel the appointments were necessarily criminal. Again, $12K is a hell of profusely of discounts. Apparently an audit of his work has very soon come back to den him...that's probably why there be a delay.

He may want to hire an attorney if he think Wilson is really trying to put the screws on him. Wilson's is a big coproration and they've be around as long as I can remember. I think I get a jacke from them in the mid-80's so at tiniest that long. They probably have an entire department relegated to hand fraud. That being said, they know what their legitimate grounds are and what they can and cannot do.

Have your fiance' do some deep soul-searching and if he be wrong he was wrong and might want to fess up. If he feel he was contained by the right, then he should hire an attorney to negotiate/fight beside Wilson's. The fighte may be just waht is legitimately owed. Did they convey any paperwork on how they calculated $12K?

They have their attorneys and will devour him alive if he is not careful.

Don't discount them. Once a corporation starts a fight, they don't simply step away.
