      AFSCME Still forcing me to pay dues...

      So, it is fair that the few be compelled to pay in order to benefit all? Sadly, there are a great many short-sighted individuals out there in the workforce today that neither look at benefits or retirement until too late, and they likewise look only at their bottom line. If that bottom line...

      Complex case between biological parents - custody of child after arrested for domestic violence. Will cps get involved? Can I leave the state without

      First question, is the father your husband? Second, has paternity been legally established? In other words, is dad on the birth certificate or has a court ruled that he is the father of the child? Now, DO you have an Emergency Protective Order? If so, that is only good for 5 business days...

      AFSCME Still forcing me to pay dues...

      Years ago I was in unions that forced me to pay for political activities I disagreed with when I was part of AFSCME and then the CTA. I did not appreciate that because the "fair share" fees were absurd back then and did not accurately reflect the costs of negotiations and representation (a 90%...

      AFSCME Still forcing me to pay dues...

      The problem is that the ruling also allows non-paying employees to benefit from the expense and efforts of others. That seems inherently unfair and will likely lead to the demise of associations as people will eventually resent paying to represent those who pay nothing. And, if this creates a...

      AFSCME Still forcing me to pay dues...

      If it had not been for unions, law enforcement might still be making sub-par wages and lack sufficient benefits to attract and retain qualified employees. I cannot speak for other states, but in CA law enforcement unions lack the real power that many seem to impart upon us. We cannot strike or...

      AFSCME Still forcing me to pay dues...

      I have never quite agreed with the political support provided to political candidates whose platforms are antithetical to law enforcement and public safety. But, because those anti-law enforcement candidates also tend to be pro-labor, part of my dues have gone to support candidates who oppose...

      Will my driver's license be suspended?

      What offense were you charged with? If convicted of H&S 11357, here is the law: VC 13202. (a) A court may suspend or order that the department revoke in which case the department shall revoke the privilege of any person to operate a motor vehicle upon conviction of any offense related to...

      Red light traffic camera

      And if the judge continues to press him? Look, the point is (and I have seen this happen in the courtroom) if you play verbal games with a judge, you'll lose. Trying to plead stupid doesn't tend to work. Risking jail to protect a brother from a flippin' traffic ticket is downright stupid.

      And, yes, if a judge asks a question and you refuse to answer without any legal support for said refusal, then you can be subject to contempt of court. Anyone who thinks you can just ignore an order of the court with impunity is naive, or very hopeful.

      Red light traffic camera

      If the judge says answer, you answer. It's NOT a 5th Amendment issue. Good idea! Perjury! Wonderful! Then, "Did you report your car stolen?" ... how would he answer that one? He would have to really like his brother to risk jail for him over a ticket.

      Red light traffic camera

      One note: If he is in court and the judge inquires as to who was driving the car, he will be bound to answer the question truthfully. There is no law precluding the judge from making the inquiry or allowing the brother NOT to answer. He can get away from identifying the real driver up until...

      Can I sue EMS even though I was arrested and in shock

      I strongly suspect that the medics will have another version of events likely showing that you declined treatment and seemed to comprehend the ramifications of your medical decisions. I have seen a great many patients at scenes of auto collisions decline medical treatment in spite of requests...

      Can I sue EMS even though I was arrested and in shock

      Did you ask the medics or the police to take you to the hospital? Did you decline to go when they asked you? What damages have you suffered as a result of their NOT treating you at the scene? Can you PROVE that had they exercised a reasonable standard of care at the scene that you would not...

      I transferred to the north state from southern CA and they are two different worlds of policing.

      Pretext..? get case dismissed, Cop lied and with held info

      Keep in mind that possession is not a crime of ownership or use. While I agree that you seem to have a good argument that you may not have known of the presence of the drugs, there will be a presumption that you did since it was in your car and the car had apparently been in your possession for...

      Law Enforcement

      It can be. All the applicant will get is a letter stating that they are no longer considering the applicant. Some will state it is is because of the psych eval, others will not. But, if you have completed the background and gotten to the conditional offer phase, all that's left is the psych...

      Law Enforcement

      One thing to remember is that the contents and results of the psych eval are NOT provided to the applicant (at least in CA - other states may have different regs). The agency receives only a notice stating whether the applicant is acceptable or not. The full report is NOT (or SHOULD NOT be)...

      Thanks for the kind words, guys. His is not an isolated sort of issue. Often, a parade of disqualifications become a self-fulfilling prophecy for a while and you have to step back and look at a different tack to take. In Legion90's case, he apparently had a successful career with LAPD until...

      Defamation and Privacy laws violated?

      What has "faith" got to do with it? I have not seen the video so I cannot hear what was said. But, it's not a matter of faith whether a recording is lawful or not, it's a matter of law.
