Wait, Jack is full of shit. Why would a US Marshal know anything about a state court case?

Interesting…they arent scared of backlash from the right…

No, because such people are expendable to the powers that be, which is precisely why they are in the crowd to begin with.

This is how it works in every courthouse in the nation, civil or criminal. The party with the burden of persuasion has the last word, if they choose to reserve time.

Lol, did BLM apply for a protest permit?

Yep, they can. Think OJ Simpson. He beat the criminal charges, but was sued by the families and lost the civil trial. I’d argue the wrinkle might be different here, since he’s going with a self defense argument, which is also a defense to the civil side of things as well. If he walks on self...

No, because if he’s guilty, then its not slander anymore because everything they said is true. even then, he’s a public figure, and a suit against them would be difficult because of Sullivan v. NYT, in that he’ll have to demonstrate malicious intent.

No, thats not a good idea. Instead, he ought to be brought up on perjury charges, and since the truth is a defense, make him own the original statements to get out of it. Defense lawyers should have had that jackass subject to recall, so if he did go pull bullshit like that, immediately recall...

ARKyle’s trigger discipline alone busts this clown’s whole statement.

Trick question: he shot Jews. Checkmate.

Would it surprise you to learn that I’m pretty consistent when it comes to the pre-trial rights of an accused?

I want the 3 minutes of my life back that i feel were wasted reading this piece.

This is a false equivalence. People who have been actually adjudicated to be guilty of a crime have diminished rights compared to those who have not. People in Huntsville are not awaiting trial; they’ve already been convicted. Not the same as the 1/6 people.

What the fuck is this? Mass deaths in Texas prisons? 13 people in 10 years now constitutes mass deaths?

Judge can enter a judgment non obstante verdicto, where he just takes the case away from the jury entirely as a matter of law

A country in the midst of mass civil unrest has problems projecting power outwards. I’d wager a country like China knows this, and is stoking fires with the powers that be here. After all, why go to war with your enemy when you can get your enemy to tear itself to pieces.

“Inalienable” is a dare from strong men to the people they allow to govern them to take those rights. we just happen to have a shortage of strong men…but ARKyle gives me hope for the future

Lol, i’d go for that law but that loser has to give up something in trade: if the cops fail to stop a riot or permit one to happen, then every cop should be civilly liable for the ensuing property damage, every executive branch person civilly liable for the same, and all of them must be...

I think this is why he’s up there in the first place. Part of a criminal jury selection is beating into their heads that the fifth amendment means you cant infer shit from him not taking the stand, precisely because jurors will forget about the fifth and say exactly what you said right there.

Go back to teaching math.

You didnt watch the Casey Anthony trial. What a fucking shit show.

The defense should ask for the directed verdict as soon as the state rests. Its essentially saying as a matter of law, the state failed to put on evidence of at least one of the elements of the crime, so the case cant go to the jury. You can only ask for it, once the opposing party makes a...

Its no bar to serving on a jury. The conventional lawyer wisdom is to strike an attorney in the venire panel because if the attorney makes it to the 12, inevitably the jury will find out that person is an attorney. They all end up deferring to the lawyer, and now its just a jury of one, instead...

Lol, so having a law degree and a bar license means you’ve never served on a jury before that? You arent even a potato, you’re a yam.

Lol, pay attention to the ones with real law degrees. That’s all.

“Subject to recall by the defense.” If hero Kyle takes the stand its during the defense’s case in chief…then the defense is serious about a case in chief. they’ll just recall this retard then.

I saw this. The writer used pretty decent source material, in that its clear this was supposed to be the Metal Gear Solid movie. Guess that makes the black chick Meryl

Didnt kayleigh have a mastectomy to avoid breast cancer? not that this is necessarily a bad thing, just pointing this out.

Dunno. Every court is different. Weirdest I've seen was in San Antonio. They had one giant table in front of the bench, and Plaintiff's Counsel and Defendant's Counsel all sat together at the table.

Lol, before the matrix he was the voice of the male sheep dog in Babe.

You joke, but the first thing in the trailer is the Deja Vu cat

5 bucks says thats the reason they rebooted the franchise. They have to control the language and re-define the term.

Lol, i mean, Alicia Vikander asked him how bad he wanted it, and he said i want it real bad, and i thought it was allegory, until he came and there was nut all over the belt his mom made. and then Joel Edgarton made out with him in the next scene.

Wife was totally stoked to go see this. I had no idea what to expect. She walked out and said it was the worst movie she'd ever seen. Was pretty funny when Alicia Vikander jerked him off. otherwise, a movie for art snobs.

Play it on nightmare. its about 3 hours per level

Have you seen the second season yet?

This is judge dependent. In the jury trials i’ve done, the court allowed them to take notes, but the jury had to leave the notes with the bailiff at the end of every day. i’d agree with you that not allowing the jury to take notes is sorta ridiculous.
