No. Not at all. In NY we don't criticize people who buy too much junk food. We tax them. ;)

Thanks for letting us know you were going to spam our legal website in advance. We've quickly removed all your posts and banned your proxies. If you're seeing this, most search engines are able to filter out spam pages with a large number of backlinks with inline targeted text. We remove spam...

True. That's what I meant to say but with some additional reference to how it's even being perceived this way across the spectrum...

First Amendment Audit. It's a truly sad day when you have more liberal sites considering audits a euphemism often motivated by greed and self-promotion rather than any bona fide concern about public freedoms.

Now that's extreme conduct. Great article. I'm not surprised of such conduct in certain practice areas. I remember serving as in-house counsel to a very well known Internet company. While many big firm lawyers jumped into startups, I had just left mine and was hired by the company just a few...

This is a very good question and a difficult one to answer. I recall first reading about Coats v Dish Network in the employment context, where an employee using cannabis based products being prescribed medical marijuana was terminated under federal law. In that 2015 case, the Colorado Supreme...

I'm unsure what you are seeking. If you are developing a product on your free time, it's your product. My guess is that you're trying to ensure that your employer won't make a claim on your work which, in some manner, might be related to what you are doing for them. Hence you want your employer...

Clause B is one of the most difficult clauses I've tried to read and understand. It seems to imply that you will obtain some type of agreement by your employer that they will not, directly or indirectly, attempt to solicit any type of business whatsoever with your new employer. I have no idea...

I don't know and defer to others. As a matter or rote, if suing pursuant to a breach of contract, determine if there is a contract provision for recovery of attorneys fees in the contract.

In most instances you won't get refunds prorated with a registrar for a few simple reasons: 1) The registrar may already be out the money for registering the domain, e.g. they register domains on behalf of the TLD registrar, e.g. you register at GoDaddy which must pay the individual registry to...

I'm in academia and a good number find it extremely important to be called "doctor" if they have a PhD. And then there are others who find that the insistence by those possessing a PhD insisting that they be called "doctor" is an absurd practice. As an attorney, I've never even thought of being...

I think it's time to shut down this thread and the conversation. I've read the issue that started this all and it seems clear that what might be possible is certain very highly unlikely. As an FYI, my area of intensive study this past year is cybersecurity so I'm quite familiar with many...

If someone used your credit card without authorization then that is what happened. While I would think that there is a fairly good chance that merely reporting the fraudulent charges shouldn't get you into any additional trouble (and saying you don't recognize the name of the person making the...

Either way you've been watching Superman 3 one too many times. ;)

I used to handle this long ago for an Internet company. If you look at the fine print of many of these types of "games of chance" you'll see rules and restrictions such as "not open to residents of the following states." Does your trading card game limited to one state or all fifty states? How...

You may be right about a legal, exploitable loophole. Since we don't have access to any employee handbook or company policy, we can't comment on what might be contained therein which might be applicable. Nor can we say that the company won't file a lawsuit, even in small claims, to try to...

If you think it's worth pursuing a claim in small claims court, you may be able to try. But from what you're telling me, you're going to have a difficult time justifying why the money should be refunded. You're claiming that the agreement was that the landlord would have an option to early...

I have temporarily hidden from view the off topic posts - if that is OK with everyone and hopefully will assume that it is? I understand the OP's anguish and hope to obtain a variety of insight and input from different sources in the hope of being able to prevent the further damage being done to...

I think there is a misunderstanding here given what seems to be the limit of the 5 post per day initial limitation, which we'll have to review. Spamming is extremely heavy and it has been a very effective measure from an ROI standpoint. We'll make sure to clean up the issue and don't think the...

Queens South 168-35 Rockaway Blvd and was about 4 years ago doing a friend a favor. I told him it would be a difficult case given that New York City will likely not admit that its sign is inherently not likely visible when it can collect money from bogus parking tickets that aren't worth the...
