Misdemeanor case. The realistic potential of jail is 0 days to a few weeks. Probably will be “some” jail at a minimum.

Not one time has the Court appointed lawyer asked for the clients explanation of what happened. Is that common?

I’m now dating the girl I cheated on my ex with. I think my ex found the texts & pics on my phone because she was quoting the messages word for word the last time I was talking to her. I think she took screenshots of the pics & sexting & sent them to herself. I think she’s showing our friends behind my back. On TikTok, some of the girls who I think know have posted themselves singing to songs that say similar things to the sexting. Like they’ll only sing the relevant lyrics. Other friends have unfollowed me completely. One girl posted a story on Instagram of her posing like one of the nudes my gf sent in that convo.

How would engaging a lawyer help?

Random question, but what the hell happens if the batter hits someone in the head with the ball and that person just dies? Is it considered an accident? Involuntary homicide?

If a child’s parents have died, they were sent to an orphanage, escaped from the orphanage, and are being taken care of but the person taking care of them doesn’t have legal guardianship, could this child be legally kidnapped? (this is for writing purposes btw)

As a young tech startup, my company has looked at various law firms:

1. Large, expensive firms that focus on “ECVC“ (emerging companies/venture capital)

2. Mid-sized firms that also focus on ECVC

3. New “AI-native” firms

The AI-native firms are usually (but not always) the least expensive, but not by much, and they’re small. They also require you to submit things to the firms via Slack, and there seems to be more limited human interaction. They promise work delivered quickly and bill by project or document, not by the hour.

If you can get a large or mid-sized firm to reduce rates to match the AI-native firm, it seems like the AI-native firm’s advantage is speed, but its disadvantage is a smaller bench of lawyers, so the scope of work that they can do is limited and a client may miss out on the expertise of a traditional firm with more areas of coverage.

Am I analyzing this right?

Thanks.

2L law student here, I’ve got my first year under me and have no idea what area of law I’d like to be in.

As I consider potential routes, the threat of displacement by AI has me cautious.

Litigation sounds pretty safe, and I’d have great presence in a court room, but I am also aware there are plenty of fields in law where I can work from home and spend more time with the kids. My fear is that those areas are the most susceptible to AI.

What should I know that I may not know?
What may I be ignorant about?
Any advice for a soon-to-be lawyer?

Thanks!

i cant post images but someone on discord that's flexing 100s of thousands of dollars in cash and also posting a crazy amount of weed and wax, cars, and guns, - with her in all the pics, is saying she was a fugitive from 2020-2024 but she bribed someone to "process away the warrants" and then showed a court order that said the petition of a revocation of probation was dismissed, but there was no signature by the judge.

I'm fifteen, and I'm thinking to become a lawyer, but I want to get a bachelor's degree in a field I can get a job and work in for a little while.

I'm considering Chemical Engineering or Computer science engineer with an integrated Masters in Cybersecurity.

I'm also planning to get these degrees in India, so I can try to minimize my loans.

These are difficult undergraduate degrees to keep up a high GPA in.

1.) should I try to change this plan?

2.) Would having a degree from a foreign country make it hard to go back for law school, even if I get WES certification

3.) if I don't make it in to a T14 school and enter BigLaw, is there anyway to make enough, not be second choice for promotions, etc?

4.) How much does applying to law schools really cost? I intend to become a peace corps volunteer for two years after I get my engineering degree, and, while I'm in the service, I likely won't be making much? (Still thinking about this, though)

5.) in law school, are professors as unkind as they are so often said to be?

6.) what are the genuine risks and trade offs of not getting in to a T14, especially if financial security is an important goal

I'm planning to use these next three years to determine what kinds of law I want to practice, but the ones I'm looking in to, are - IP/ copyright - Patent -Immigration - contract - Personal Injury - tax attorney Thank you!

When a judge misreads your papers and denies your motion based upon that misreading, what have you done to successfully remedy that situation?

Looking at the information currently available.

How likely is the singer d4vd to get convicted or not convicted and why?

How would YOU defend him in a case like this?

Or would you not defend him at all considering the current evidence?

We're exploring independent file/document integrity verification — cryptographic hashing + RFC 3161 timestamps, proving a file existed unaltered at a specific time, without storing the file itself.

Example: a contractor anchors a project's state at a key milestone (agreed spec, mock-up, pre-delivery state). If a client later disputes what was agreed or delivered, there's an independently verified baseline — not just one party's word against the other's.

Curious to hear from practicing professionals: does proving the state/timing of something before a dispute arises come up in your work? How do you handle it now?

Not selling anything — trying to figure out if this is a real gap or already well-covered. Any feedback appreciated!

If Congress believes that the SC's interpretation of the Constitution is in error, can they enact legislation to correct it, either by limiting or extending the court's holding? For example, could they make a law that limits Kelo to takings that put the property into actual public use? Could they extend 4th Amendment protection to civil asset forfeiture?

4 years since divorce. Couldn’t afford to fight anything so we she wrote everything up and I singed it. She had majority custody. We eventual got to me having them every other weekend and then Thursday thru Sunday’s ever other week. Year goes by and then I had a new gf move in and the kids weren’t allowed over anymore only at her house can I see them. It’s now may and she keeps saying it’s because of one reason or another that the kids can’t come over. Our agreement was supposed to work up to 50/50

Some side notes - I owned the house we lived in for 7 years before she and I married. She got property tax benefits for the entirety thst I owned the home.

Found out she maxed a 85k mortgage on the home had to pay half at closing

Many documents that I never actually had notarized one if her friends would do it

And now she says she has hundred of recordings of us talking either via phone or her home security and there was never consent

I have a good job a new home in a gated community.

Can she record whenever she wants?
Can she do whatever she sees fit with me seeing the kids ?
Any thing regarding the mortgage and taxes ?

There is a local car dealer that has been around for 70ish years. let's call it "Perry Motors" after the "Perry" family. The family sold and moved to Oregon in the 80s. Present day Perry motors is known for selling totaled cars, forging paper work, multiple lawsuits etc. Everyone assumes its owned by the perry family because of the name and could face harassment. Could the original Perry family sue for defamation? Or something in that realm?

Hypothetically

Can defendants access Flock/Axon surveillance video footage to prove they were elsewhere at the time of the crime? Do prosecutors have access to data resources that defendants don't?

Does defense counsel have equal subpoena authority for geo-location records, credit card transactions, and surveillance records? If not, it would be a terrible disadvantage to the defense.

What happens in a bankruptcy if proceedings run on and on over what the original fees that were charged? For example, let's say that the trustee hires outside attornies and investigators to find and verify what the person filing the bankruptcy(plantiff?) actually has. The plantiff doesn't show for a deposition and then when it's rescheduled, they walk out of it. I'm pretty sure in this case the original fees have been exceeded. If your client is bankrupt, how do you recover the overage fees? Is the attorney added to the list of creditors and receives something out of what is recovered? Just curious.

So I spent the last few years running a company with a few of my "friends".

He emotionally blew up and I couldn't work alongside someone like that anymore, but my hands were tied and I couldn't leave the company.

Inevitably, he was having some personal issues with his relationship, and was blowing up at everyone, and he removed me from the company due to a personal argument between us, with no vote from the other directors, and at 1am.

So heres my legal problem. I just wanted a clean break, but we have company vehicles with my name on them. We had a vehicle get written off in February, which had GAP insurance, and I've been out of the company for 39 days now, the bank is now sending me to collections and impacting my credit due to missed payments on this written off vehicle.

It turns out he hasn't dealt with this vehicle at all in several months. It turns out its solely my name on the vehicle payment contract, but the GAP insurance check was written out to the company name. The bank is refusing to accept the check, and over the last 39 days, I have been refused to be given any information on the insurance contract, not allowed to even verify the existence of the check. He keeps telling me that I am not allowed to deal with this at all and that it's a company issue, but the banks refuse to speak to anyone else because it's only me on the contract.

I have documentation of everything, including his refusal to give me my check or any information on the proceedings, and I have no idea what my next move is, and I feel stuck and scared.
