Law Questions and Answers

Constitutional Rights?

Is it not a violation of our rights to bar smoking in bar and restraunts being that they are privately owned establishments and smoking is permissible. So how is it the goverment has the right to do this?
Answers: Because they posed it for a vote.

The argument that they do hold is that smoke does cause impair. I know smokers love their addction. But in cities where on earth service industry is king , you ddo have to conjecture about the race who work there. Just similar to factories and mask and goggles. This is a way for workers to consistency safe. And owners to avaoid lawsuits.

And most smokers may not be as considerate as yourself.

I am a non smoker and i boted for non smoking workplaces.
Because everything they push on us is underneath the disguise that its better for us and that they think they know whats best for us.
The same be as making seatbelts being worn a canon. They say they meticulousness and it prevents deaths but surrounded by reality the insurance companies are paying them hundrends of thousands to go beyond this law and enforce it contained by order to minister to the insurance companies save millions when populace have accident so they wont be as badly injured hopefully and they wont own to pay the bills.

It should be my right to opt if I want to risk my life driving because I know the things that could come to pass not be forced to wear it.
Because smoking is a disgusting habit.

Actually it is because smoking is not deadly only to the user. It is bad for you to everyone around you when you do it. If they didnt not ban smoking within some places you could walk into a year care and blow smoke into the obverse of the infants in the place. That is an extreme concept but it is the basis for the ruling. I dont want to be poisoned because you desire to make some stupid partly baked decision to start smoking.
No, it's not against your rights. To be honest, the individual one it impacts is the public house owner, because in the recent past, allowing smoking inside their establishment has be at the sole discretion of the ownership. This has much to do beside a "laissez-faire" or "Hands off" government. If anything it is an example of management not leaving their "hand off" on what really should of been a business finding.

Your rights are still in place. You hold the right to smoke. You have the right to pick which place to humiliate. Unfortunately, you don't have any rights human being violated here.
It is a violation of someone's rights. A clear travel case of the tyranny of the Majority. Bar owners and Restaurant owners should be allowed to determine something like this.

.
There's nought in the Bill of Rights in the region of the right to smoke.

You can smoke if you want, but not where your smoke is going to enter someone else's proboscis and lungs. It is a proven fact that worn smoke is a danger to form and patrons and employees of restaurants and bar have a right to expect that they won't hold to gasp for a verbs breath when they try to eat or own a drink after work.

Smoke if you want, but realize you need to do it where on earth the rest of us don't have to breathe it.
agreed.
it believe it to be a concealed attempt by local communities to effectively rejection behaviors and legal establishments that they disapprove of or that they morally baulk to. at pretty much any bar something like 75% of the patrons smoke. the bars allow it because they want to cater to their loyal and paying customers. if it be profitable to ban smoking for a majority of nonsmoking customers they would.

i reflect on the intended effect is to force the bar owners to comply next to laws that will negatively impact their businesses surrounded by the hope that they will close down. most rural ageing city counsel men and women see this as a way to rid their community not solely of tobacco but also to "dry it out" a bit.

smokers have the right not to support or frequent establishments that do not allow them to smoke. Nonsmokers also hold the right to not frequent or support establishments that allow smoking. lets agree to the free market, not establishment, decide how our businesses are run.
I understand your right to smoke, as long as what you exhale, as capably as the smoke directly from the cigarette/cigar/pipe/etc., doesn't pollute the air that I am trying to breathe.
The medical researchers own proven the harmful effects of secondhand smoke, including the increase contained by lung cancer, emphysema, COPD, and other respiratory diseases.
Legislation for the good of several outweighs the right to poison yourself.
My wife is a smoker, and the other day we be sat on a wall by the river, near a car park at the back us. A posh git in a huge 4x4, back his gas guzzling vehicle into our faces, and sit with his lubricant obnoxious kids nearby. After a few minutes, my wife lit up a cigarette, and sit enjoying her ciggy. The posh git come up to us and said "do you mind not smoking around my children"? I explined to said , "obnoxious ya ya," that he had newly backed his fume gushing vehicle into our face,. I usually find that the people who gripe about others smoking, (in the expand air too if you please.) are responsible for more polution than a bit of second appendage cigarette smoke.
I have given up my local for them, and their obnoxious children, but I am damned if I, or my wife will be dictated to in our own rural community, and outdoors at that!!!
The thing here is that our senate can do whatever they want...they are taking our rights away slowly but surely and it seem to be OK with most associates. WAKE UP PEOPLE BEFORE YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS LEFT AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO DO A DANG THING ABOUT IT!! This is how taking our rights away starts THE GOVERNMENT MAKES THE PEOPLE FIGHT AMONGST THEMSELVES ABOUT THE PETTY THINGS WHILE IN THE MEAN TIME ARE TAKING OUR RIGHTS AWAY, MISDIRECTION IS WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS GOOD AT. AS WE ARE FIGHTING OVER THESE PETTY THINGS THE GOVERNMENT IS SIGNING NEW BILLS AND LAWS THAT WE HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT. WAKE UP AMERICA AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS WHILE WE STILL HAVE SOME RIGHTS LEFT!!!
I don't think smoking is mentioned anywhere within the Constitution, but the process of making and inforcing laws is.
Our command has taken on the roll of protector up and beyond what anyone would own imagined 40 years ago.
I agree that a business owner should be able to run his business anyway he requests. If customers don't like it-go elsewhere. Whoever coined the phrase "politically correct"
should be ashamed. Walk a fine vein or be an outcast.
Never thought it would happen, but you can't smoke contained by Las Vegas restaurants anymore-including casino restaurants.

Lie or be truthful?

3 months ago me and my boyfriend had a massive row it get a bit out of control and he done up slapping me. i was so hurt and upset i go strate to the police coz i did not deserve it at all! i give statements told them what had happen,now we are backbone together again.i rang to retract my statement and the copper said he would catch back to me to bring in an appointment he never did though. now they go to call round where on earth my boyfriend lives i don't want trouble me and him are happy very soon we love each other. what do i do? shall i say-so i lied coz i was upset? what can they do to me if i do? i've never been within trouble with them contained by my life. plz help out me i'm so scared.
Answers: Be honest dont fib..say you be both aruguing he hit you..you guys have talk it out and now your hindmost together..thats all you can do..however if he continues to hit you than you should no longer be near him..it will only obtain worse..good luCK!
And the truth shall set you free.

The definite question is do you want to be free from this or not?
Just share the truth - the police deal near this sort of thing adjectives the time.
Be careful though - if this guy have hit you once, he can do it again, and the police might not be so keen to give support to you a second time around, when you might really need them.
Be truthful.

You can decline to press charges, if they ask, if you so choose.

If I be you, I'd dump the guy. If he slapped you one in the grill of an argument, he will do it again. Eventually he will not need an argument to agree on that it is OK to slap you. Then after you dump him, you can press charges.
You have to find the courage to break it rotten with your boyfriend because he will hit you again and the subsequent time it will be worse.

The police know this from experience and realise you are under pressure. I can assure you that you are contained by no troule whatsoever and they are on your side here,

Jerry in Ireland.
Stick next to the Truth.
If your boyfriend gets contained by trouble, it is because of HIS actions, not because of your describing the truth.

If your boyfriend loved you and respected you, HE would approach the prosecutor and ask what HE could do about this (i.e., cart an anger management class, set up probation to hold on to himself in rank, etc.).

There is NO excuse for slapping a woman in an argument. Other than your FAITH and HOPE - which you have 1 second before he hit you the FIRST time - how do you know he won't slap you (or worse) if you 2 hold another bigger row?

Your boyfriend needs oblige. Serious help. And you stipulation some education:
1. Escalation phase
2. Violence
3. Honeymoon phase
FIRSTLY - THE POLICE HAVE A DUTY TO FOLLOW UP YOUR REPORT. ALL THEY WILL GIVE YOUR BOYFRIEND IS A CAUTION - THEY CANNOT PROSECUTE HIM AS YOU HAVE RETRACTED YOUR STATEMENT AND YOU ARE THE MAIN WITNESS. THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT THEM TALKING TO HIM. WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T SAY THAT YOU'VE LIED YOU COULD BE CHARGED WITH WASTING POLICE TIME.

SECONDLY - DUMP YOUR BOYFRIEND - GET OUT NOW WHILE YOU CAN - HE'S ONLY A BOYFRIEND SO YOU CAN GET OUT EASILY. HE'LL DO IT AGAIN NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS. THERE IS SOMEBODY BETTER OUT THERE FOR YOU. GOOD LUCK AND PLEASE DON'T BE SCARED.
How bleedin romantic are you? Your boyfriend ends up slapping you, and all your concerned in the order of is how in "love" the both of you are. What are you going to do when it DOES evolve the next time round? Go running of to the police and later retracting your story as soon as he comes back to you beside a half baked story of why he hit you and declare his undying love.

You really need to wake up up!!
If they decide to prosecute, they will, they do not obligation you to press charges and you can not 'drop' the charges, it's out of your hands.


Lie to them, and they may not believe you subsequent time or the time after that!

Why would you have be lying because you were terrified? - if you were startled you wouldn't have gone to the police. Sounds more approaching you are scared of what your boyfriend will do.
What do you do? You set off the abuser and find someone who will respect and value you. Repeat after me: It is NOT agreeable for my boyfriend to hit, slap, kick, or otherwise treat roughly me!

A slap is abuse. And NOBODY have the the right to hit you. Period. Someone who does is not in control and react with belligerence to gain some level of power or control hindmost in the situation. Do not breed excuses to yourself OR THE POLICE for his behavior. Instead, leave him far bringing up the rear and go amount out why you are willing to adopt being manipulate and controlled by somebody who CLEARLY does NOT repsect you. There is no love in anger and there is no terror campaign in love. I'm sincerely sorry that you will be hurt surrounded by leaving him - but better to be hurt by making a self-respecting result now to shutting down the relationship than to be hurt by him down the road when a slap becomes a punch and afterwards a full-on beating. Do not kid yourself - it will escalate because, by getting fund together, you have told him that you can be manipulate, you don't feel worthy of love and respect, and you are ready to accept his destructive control over you. This is not an extreme take on your relationship. It's the cold, intricate truth and you need to be strong satisfactory to give it some thought and label a good judgment for yourself. I sincerely wish the best for you.
You own to be truthful Amy.
Take note of the mixed people and their counsel to this.

I used to accompany a girl to Victim Support who kept man manipulated by a man. He used to knock her roughly, say sorry etc and they used to attain back together again.
If you parley with Victim Support they will transmit you that the average amount of times that some-one leaves and goes backbone to a relationship that involves domestic violence is 7.

Whether or not your boyfriend will own it he is only probably beside you to make you drop your complaint against him.

YOU DO NOT HIT SOME-ONE YOU LOVE OR CARE ABOUT.

You are worth so much more than him and deserve some-one who will love and treat you near the respect you should have as a human being.

Be strong Amy and make the right choice. In the long run you will be so much better for it. There is support for you out here, other friends, family, casualty support etc. Use these available resources.

I recently posted a question/statement in connection with San Francisco Workman's Compensation and their policies...

Answers: No, you own the right to freedom of speech.

What makes you so sure it be the city that squashed your post?
I think conceivably the city has better things to verbs about -- unless you're still their member of staff and you're screwing around on YA while you're supposed to be working.

What are my chances of getting sole custody of my son?

Hello, I am within the middle of a custody battle beside my sons father at the moment.. heres the story, I got pregnant and he know about it and afterwards we fought because of his drug use and he didnt want to change so we broke and he be not there for me through out my in one piece pregnancy, no doctors appt., etc., and when my son was born, I have to go for paternity trialling and he was once again proved to be the father and in a minute at the age of 8 months he hired a lawyer and is requesting to enjoy joint custody, and he hasnt even see his son and has not shown any responsible endeavour until now.. I dont know what to guess.. this case is going on surrounded by the state of wisconsin.. please help me and at least possible let me know what I can do within order fo me to receive sole custody or what your advice is, it would be greatly appreciated.. thank you
Answers: Even if he get joint I would request he shift take some drug theory test to prove he isnt still using.Which most likely he will grasp two weekends a month and weds..evenings.
At 1 my granddaughters father showed up and said Im the dad.I made him take a blood try-out and he was!!.In most cases..I know this is tight-fisted to say ..and some family will give me some discouraging emails.But the father does not know what a full package custody is.once they start paying and generate sure he covers insurance and you have moral clause within there for him not to bring every hillary and judy home beside him..Make sure you claim on taxes.
the men get tired of putting forth the challenge.Ours hasnt picked her up in three months...end time he took for night and his gf took her to the pool the subsequent day.So at times they dont realize how much it is to elevate a child either.I KNOW DRUGS are desperate issue been in attendance with daughter..ive lived it adjectives.But try to work together in best interest of child and remember its nice when everyone shows a child love.Just making sure he is to cart regular drug tests if posssible and counseling for it if have need of be.good luck hon!!
Zero in need a good legal representative.

You say he never saw his son. Did you invite him too? Or did you do everything you could to stop him? Is he using drugs very soon? Can you prove he ever did?
The best advice I would proposal would be -- get a legal representative too. One with a reputation that make HER a formidable adversary to business with surrounded by court.

I say HER because womanly custody specialists seem to enjoy a higher nouns rate of getting favorable rulings.

Be prepared for one really big thing however, the child's father may own spent the last year cleaning up his feat and be completely clean. Many times it purloin loosing something and someone they love to really make a party wake up.

You may hold bad ambience toward the child's father for not being near for you, but if he has cleaned up his accomplishment you cannot in correct conscience deprive him of his right to be a part of the child's vivacity.

Also, if you do win sole custody, you need to be infallible that you do not poison the childs mind against his father with your perception of how he deserted the two of you. This has horrible effects of self worth doubt on a child who is growing up short a father.

I would suggest you both get counciling as piece of whatever comes from the court process. You enjoy created a life together and it is BOTH of your responiblity to see to it that that different life go and get a fair shot at a pious life.

All of this is probably NOT what you considered necessary to hear, but needed to be said. You need to start thinking more for the child and not for yourself. Being a parent is cut and parcel about the child not nearly ourselves.

Emancipation HELPPP?

i am 17 and emancipated minor because i had a child. i want to leave w/ my boyfriend because we have a baby. is that allowed. i live within louisville,kentucky. please help. my parents are trying to clutch my baby as their own
Answers: You are NOT an emancipated minor because you have a child...in ANY state. A minor parent have medical emancipation (meaning they can put together medical decisions concerning the pregnancy and regarding their child's medical care) and they enjoy authority/parenting rights over their own child, but that is the extent of their emancaption. They are still subject to the control and authority of their own parents.

Kentucky does not hold an emancipation statute (not adjectives states do), but even if they did no judge will emancipate a minor so they can turn live with their boyfriend, even if they own a child with that boyfriend.

Now, what exactly do you miserable by they're "trying to take my toddler as their own"?


EDITED TO ADD THIS AFTER YOU ADDED ADDITIONAL DETAILS:

Your parents can’t tell you to disappear and then forbid you from taking your child (unless they've be awarded custody of that child by a court). They have no endorsed right to do either of those things, not even to put in the picture you to leave, because they are properly responsible for providing for you until you turn 18--but they are not responsible for providing for your child.

But you might want to tread lightly here, because your parents can spawn things even more difficult for you then they are presently. They can forbid Boyfriend from coming on their property and from having contact near you (yes, they can, even if he’s the father of your child). And if he can’t have contact near you, then it will be deeply impossible for him to see the child, unless he has court-ordered visitation, contained by which case they cannot deny him access to the child during his visitation time.

My suggestion--Boyfriend wishes to obtain court-ordered visitation. And if you do not hold court-ordered child support, then that wants to be done at the same time. That might trademark your parents a little more ‘accepting’ of the official process going on (because in appendage to obtaining the trial right to visitation he’ll also be legally responsible for paying child support). Be aware, if paternity have not yet be legally established, after that will have to crop up first, but it’s a simple thing to do.
its really unyielding to say. FIrst did your parents want you out becuase you be pregnant? and now they want to appropriate your baby? i dont really see that occurring.
also, are you a "fit" parent in the eyes of the state? or enjoy you had problems beside parenting that they had a social working looking surrounded by on you? Do you have a job/ system to properly care for your child... also how outdated is the bf? does he have a opening? there are various factors. Overally- jsut becuase you are 17 doesnt parsimonious that they can take your babe and i believe if you are emancipated you are considered an adult surrounded by the sense you are able to live where on earth you want and care for your child. If you are "fit" to precision for your child i dont see any problem. If it does go to court and if your parents are the ones who primarily "kicked " you out then that looks bleak on them.. you get pregnant and they want you (and your unborn baby) out of their house and very soon all of the sudden they want your babry?? i.e. messed up.. also your bf would ahve some say within the matter as in good health becuase it is his child too

Smoking law?

what exactly is the hot law?
the age or something?
and when does it come to the UK?
Answers: If you tight the governments encouragement for ethnic group under the age of 18 to purchase tobacco from populace who smuggle items in - so as to retrieve money AND avoid inconvenience about have to prove their age, the "promote a dealer" campaign comes into force within October 2007

Of course, it will be hailed a great nouns - as legitimate outlets will indeed report decrease sales. However "tax-free-Tom" selling a carton for lb25 will be doing a roaring trade - and also enjoy some new people to entice into buying his other "offerings".

It is breathtaking sometimes, how spectacularly stupid the government can be.

I also find it fairly offensive that at the age of 16 you can unify the armed forces - and be compelled to fight other countries war - but still be two years away from being a "big boy" allowed to established if he wants a cigarette back he gets his facade blown off.

I am a non-smoker - but even I feel Nanny State has gone for a while too far.

Mark
I am thinking you mean the age limitations on buying ciggarettes.
It is an misdeed punishable by a fine to sell tobacco, cigarettes or cigarette papers to anyone below 16.There are no legal restrictions on smoking for anyone aged 16 or above. However, from 2 April 2007, contained by Wales there is a smoking embargo in nearly adjectives enclosed public places and workplaces, doesn`t matter what your age. In Northern Ireland, the smoking ban will be introduced on 30 April 2007.
It will be unendorsed to sell tobacco and tobacco products contained by England to anyone under the age of 18 from October 2007. A stoppage on smoking in the workplace, pubs/bars/restaurants and other public spaces (including taxis) come into force in August 2007.

After a year in a partially can a judge charge you for and underage?

Heres the story, get busted in a vehicle with beer, get and underage, alittle bit of weed and got corruption of minor. I go to court and agreed to have 1 year probation and it will be exponged. past court i got another underage 2 weeks after man arrested the first time. Its been a year and i am rotten probation. Today i got a communication saying i owe more money for my second underage when i thought that would be exponged too. Does anyone know a channel to get around the court system so i won't lose my license and enjoy to pay the fine?
Answers: Sorry, but you're out of luck. The second offense is not covered, so that one stays on your narrative. And yes, they can come back and enunciate you owe more money for the second one because they're still well inside the statute of limitations (two years from the date of the offense). If you don't pay the fine, the authority will swear out a warrant for your arrest and then you'll be surrounded by a pile of trouble. Pay the fine -- you'll be sorry after that if you don't.
Well, I don't know who told you it would be expunged, but it can't be until you have completed adjectives of your sentence or probation, and usually they won't give you an expungement if you re-offend, time of year. If you have two arrests for matching thing back-to-back, probability are you aren't getting anything expunged.

Pay the fine, and stop drinking and driving (or having beer contained by a car, approaching that's different). If you can't be responsible now, they're not going to consent to you off the hook so you can drink and drive some more.
you're screwed

I think the DNA found contained by their hire vehicle that they acquired 25 days AFTER her disapearence sways me to believe they are.According to experts the DNA wasn't surrounded by the form of hair but body fluids.
Something dodgy goin on or basically unfounded speculation??
Wot u surmise??
Answers: They are responsible for her death, whether they did it or not.

NO ONE leaves a child that childish ALONE in a house while you shift eat dinner OFF the premises.
I don't want to infer they had anything to do near her disappearance, but the evidence sure is pointing toward them. I know they are getting a lot of grief over the certainty they left their children alone to shift out. In America that's a huge "no-no" but I can tell you from living within other countries, it's not a no-no if you're only a few hundred yard from where the children are. It doesn't create it right, but it is their custom.

I am afraid they might have a foot in her disappearance/accident or doesn`t matter what the case may be.

Weapons in US?

2nd amendment - a all right regualted militia, being nesessary to the guarantee of a free state, the right of the people to hold and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

a. brady handgun brutality prevention act - a five daywaiting perod since purchace of a handgun and a national instant criminal background chekc/ liceneced gun dealer are required to check the background and respectively gun sold must be ID'ed by number.

b. volience crime control law enforcement exploit (1994) - bads the manufacture of 19 types of military assault wepaons and prohibits public sale and tranfer of a gun to juvenilles.


QUESTION: does the federal law (point a and b) violate the 2nd amendement of the consitution of the incorporated states? explain.
Answers: A) No. This still allows citizens to bear arms. This basically lets the rule know you own one in suitcase you decide to commit treason or something.

B) No. I don't have a sneaking suspicion that guns were ever intended to go into the hand of minors. And the guns that are banned from public use are for the Military ONLY. Citizens aren't allowed to own those guns. When the constitution be written, combat guns were like as hunting guns.
a. No, it does not stop someone from owning a gun.

b. No, the 2nd amendment was never intended to apply to juveniles.
A is OK because it is believable that criminals not be allowed to posses guns.

B clearly violates the spirit except the letter of the 2nd amendment. It doesn't voice we are allowed to possess muskets. It was expected to allow the population to protect itself from a government that become to oppressive. Assault rifles are consistent surrounded by that spirit.
a. Probably not because you just own to wait to return with a weapon , this doesn't prevent you from getting one.

b. First part yes , second sector no.
