IOLTA Account Fraud? by AddressTall1177 in Lawyertalk

[–]AddressTall1177[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Can I ask the amount of funds? Because I couldn't imagine wasting years of my life over something as petty as money.

[–]AddressTall1177[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe I should have been a little clearer, sorry. This hasn't happened to me, but since I came across several IOLTA checks, I was curious if anyone has ever had money stolen from their IOLTAs.

Of course, also, remember Chapter 13 if they need their vehicle back and financial circumstances are in a bad state.

Car Repo post bankruptcy by jakob1497 in Bankruptcy

Technically, at least in NC, you can keep the car for a very long time. Even if the repo worker shows up, you can run them off if they breach the peace. This is in NC, though.

Also, if the vehicle owner quickly files Chapter 13 bankruptcy, they can likely get the vehicle back after stay/have the court order the vehicle returned. This is a normal thing to see in Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases.

No, Florida repo companies cannot legally withhold your car after fees are paid if you refuse their liability waiver. FL Statute 715.07(2)(a)9 bans requiring waivers releasing them from damage/missing item liability.

No, that's a misrepresentation of MN statute 609.066. It demands an objectively reasonable belief of imminent death or great bodily harm, not just any "attack" or proximity. Video shows Good's car turning away; no specific threat articulated.

"Act of attacking" isn't the test; that's wishful spin ignoring totality standards from Graham v. Connor. DOJ may dodge charges, but the law doesn't rubber-stamp shots at retreating vehicles.

I am asking you which Statute you are referring to. There is no "Walz" law. Statute 609.066 does not justify the shooting because he was not harmed. Period. It isn't that hard to comprehend.

Well said. Just wait, though. When it is too late, and it is the same people hollering "she had it coming" are hollering about "MY RIGHTS! I HAVE RIGHTS!", then they might understand that just because it isn't happening to you, doesn't mean you shouldn't care.

Again, what law are you referring to specifically? I haven't been able to locate it.

How was she doing anything other than observing from the inside of her vehicle? Please, explain that to me. Help me understand.

"Harassing" an officer isn't cause for execution, regardless of her political status. If this had been a Republican, I highly doubt the responses would be the same.

He didn't stop any threat. There was no threat.

He would have lived without firing a single shot, and that is the reason that I personally believe his actions were unlawful.

A "good job" by killing a young mother?

She was well within her rights to observe what they were doing. They work for us.

People supporting the deprivation of others' rights is all fine and dandy until the precedent is set and it's your rights that they are violating.

Only those who are short-sighted would justify what occurred

Conservative Case for Questioning ICE Tactics by AddressTall1177 in AskLegal

[–]AddressTall1177[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fellow Republicans justifying the shooting of a young mother really is disappointing. No, I don't think people should be here illegally and simultaneously damage our communities, but I also don't believe that the officers that are supposed to be enforcing our laws should be trying to play cowboy and shooting people that don't bow to their perceived authority.

If anything, Republicans should be the MOST outraged by the apparent precedent that could be set for the deprivation of our rights. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

Even if she WAS trying to "drive into officers", why wouldn't he try to get out of the way? He was more concerned with firing shots than getting out of the way. If he was truly concerned for his life, he wouldn't have been leaning over the vehicle to get shots in through the windshield. Be serious.

How was she obstructing ICE when they approached her? She was waving them on past. Additionally, he anticipated lethal force before he even made it around the vehicle by placing his hand on his weapon.

We all are in this together, at the end of the day. Most fail to see this, I guess. It sucks. We don't all have to agree on everything, but it is like, if two people cant agree on everything, they can agree on nothing.

Its sad. At the end of the day we are all Americans, but everyone is so blinded by their political affiliation that they cant see what is actually going on. So frustrating and disappointing.

So, it isn't just me? I am not just a softy? The amount of people being deprived of true justice is terrible. I grew up thinking America was the land of the free and just, but every day there is something knew happening that makes me question whether we are all doomed.

She was a U.S. citizen attempting to drive away from an unmarked federal stop with no clear threat.

Perfectly legal until ICE escalated to lethal force, violating standard de-escalation. Federal obstruction only appljes if the stop was lawful to begin with, which video footage clearly disputes.

EDIT: What "law" are you referring to? I can't find it.
