re: Income taxes should be higher.

When the Dems worship Norway, Sweden and Denmark, they don't understand that the top marginal rates are not significantly higher than ours, but that they are applied to a much lower income bracket (like $80k+) and they make their money via everyone paying in...
Versus this fairytale of billionaires carrying everything.

If you said "okay let's do Denmark" they'd melt down when they saw it applied.
absolutely, recusal is its own separate animal. But if successful you're still stuck with whatever judge you get.
quote:

You sound like you know a little about these things. Couple questions if ya don't mind.
Can a defendant waive jury trial for a bench trial?
Does it depend on the crime?
Does DA have to agree?


A defendant can waive a jury. Once he does, it is irrevocable and he's stuck with bench. Doesn't matter the crime. DA does not have to agree. There was a push this last session to make that a thing. However, now if a defendant waives a jury, the DA can require that the case be re-allotted to a new judge. Once the defendant gets that new judge, he's still stuck and cannot decide to go back to jury.
quote:

I believe it did lead to new legislation eroding a Defendant's choice in exercising their right to jury trial,


The legislation doesn't have anything to do with jury trials. It has to do with bench trials, and there is not and never has been a right to a bench trial.
This is intended so we don't have to wait for a child to be raped to get the offender locked up. In every child rape or molestation that we tried, we presented a ton of grooming evidence that showed it coming. There's evidence there. If you can prove it prior to a kid having his/her life ruined, that's a win.
2 nights 3 full days (got out 7pm) during early April 2020 peak COVID. Sleeping on that U shaped couch with nurses scolding me at 4am because my mask slipped down was something.
They recently got caught by the 5th Circuit citing a fake case made up by AI.

Every day 3-5 times. I get a call from a local number. Say hello. 4 second pause. "beep" sound and a Pakistani tells me about the great loan I can get.
When he was a kid he hit one of those utility pole stabilizing cables while on a 3 wheeler. Went straight across his neck. Bad injuries, I haven't seen him since elementary school but years later he still had vocal damage.
He was clearly talking about huge buyouts, which Kiffin criticized the very same day.

Edit. I bet there is a lot missing to this story that will eventually come out.


Correct. This was dismissed at the Motion to Dismiss stage, meaning no evidence can be introduced and the stuff written in the complaint has to be accepted as true.

If the suit gets kicked back, actual evidence will show what happened.
2nd missed pick for stamps.

Pathetic to take a sack.
I can tell you Weatlaw AI in the "summary" gave me the direct opposite of the holding it referenced twice. I use it for what it is, a place to point me in the right direction.
That Bardstown Def punches above its weight class at 49. Haven't had all the other more pricey ones.

] ETA: and in regards to this one "HB 450 requires plaintiffs to prove injuries occurred during the accident in question." I don't see it doing much of anything. There are groups of doctors in Louisiana who will write pretty much whatever you want in a medical report. I used to work as a claims adjuster and saw stuff from those guys everyday


What the elimination of Housely hopefully stops (and involves Bart) :

Housely Presumption Example
You also had a judge who accepted this. Judge could have said if you plead to negligent, you're getting 5.

due to jail crowding, he will possibly be released soon


No such thing. He's sentenced to the custody of DOC and there's no overcrowding release there.
