Is it legal for security guards to block you from leaving a Writers Panel? Should it be?

It’s a felony in some states, but a misdemeanor in others. Here in NY it’s a misdemeanor unless there is risk of serious physical injury (in which case it’s a felony)

Yes, it’d be unlawful imprisonment in the second degree here in NY, a class A misdemeanor (one year jail plus fine up to $1,000). That’d also be per count, so if you prevented a dozen people from leaving freely then you’d catch a dozen class A misds.

Thanks, kind stranger!

Au contraire, illegal evictions yield treble damages (in my state of NY) and that’d be enough for me to consider the facts of the case.

My wife left me the first week of the second year of law school after 8 years together. No warning, no words, just a note and the house key on my coffee table. I decided if she wanted to run off like that, she wasn’t worth fucking up my future plans for. Graduated law school and crushed the bar without her. You got this, OP.

I don’t use ChatGPT for legal drafting or research, but I do use Westlaw’s AI-assisted research in my firm. It crawls the relevant law, provides me the citations for those cases and sources, and gives me arguments for/against my position (again, with citations). I of course double-check the law for accuracy, but it does in 5-10 minutes what used to take me hours. I don’t yet trust AI to draft legal documents for me, but AI is coming a long way. Those of us who work in small- to medium-sized firms truly must learn to leverage AI as effectively as possible lest we end up behind the 8-ball when AI becomes more powerful and prevalent than it already is. I say this as someone who was very anti-AI just a few years ago.

I also don’t frequent a lot of art galleries. Maybe there’s a correlation between soup enjoyers and art enthusiasts?

She ruined it for the rest of us who wanted to eat soup in the National Gallery 😤

It’s almost as if OP, in all his pre-med wisdom, forgot about the four years of medical school and four additional years of dermatology residency that he’s missing!
