I recently got into skateboarding for a fun past time. I would never consider doing tricks on my board anywhere else other than skate parks but have given thought to riding a longboard for a method of transportation. Is it legal to ride a long board on sidewalks? Where can I ride it legally? I... View More

If you are not able to find laws in your ordinary searches under civil, traffic, recreational, and other laws, you could check with your elected officials on the city council, assembly, and other local, city, and state government bodies. One of the problems with skateboarding is that many places... View More

You have the right to represent yourself, but unless you comply with the local court rules, rules of civil procedure, and relevant statutes, you will quickly find the experience to be a frustrating one. It might cost you more in the long run not to have hired a good attorney at the outset.
This case would go to the Supreme Court. It is newsworthy. Civil rights violations. Statues ignored. Policies and procedures not followed. False documents presented to the court. This needs to be brought to the media's attention. Background in Family Law would be a plus. It is a very long... View More

There are approximately 80 cases a year which are argued in the Supreme Court. About another 100 cases are resolved without argument.
There are about 7,000 to 8,000 cases a year filed with the Supreme Court. The likelihood of getting a case to the Supreme Court is about 1%.

001-3912 was dismissed by nolle prosequi. Could the form I'd signed in Case 001-3912 constitute compliance with Section 600.051 for my subsequent Case 011-2189 and relieve the trial court from obtaining a new form pertinent to the new case?

Each case is its own case. Each case requires going through the same steps over and over again. The fact that you are asking this question suggests that you might not want to sign the form this time.
I doubt that the court will rely on a waiver in a different case for this case. That... View More
Hypothetically, there is a State law that forbids you from doing something. After someone files a motion for an injunction, the judge grants it, and issues an Order that you do the thing that the State law forbids. Would that court order be legal? Seeing as if a police officer orders you to do... View More

Great question, but we have to know more facts in order to answer it.

It depends upon the facts, and you gave none. This is new technology which would be used for identification purposes, just as fingerprint analysis can be done. But you will not win stating just that it is against your beliefs. There would have to be probable cause for a stop, and that might be what... View More

There is information on the internet about this, but it would be best to consult with an attorney MO. http://www.usacarry.com/concealed_carry_permit_reciprocity_maps.html
Is there a violation of my Constitutional Rights if a person or group of people block the road and I can no longer continue? They are there by choice and are blocking traffic by choice. Regardless of their reasons for doing so, I am asking about my personal rights. Is it unconstitutional for me to... View More

The Constitution protects against Government intrusion. Perhaps you can sue for something else.

Incomplete question here. Do an internet search for restoration of gun rights in Missouri.

Common sense goes a long way. Are you intentionally inviting the crime? Criminal mischief is the crime, probably. What big difference does it make if it is also a hate crime, which I do not believe it would fall under, without reading the specific statute.

It depends upon the facts, none of which you gave. Basically, a person convicted of a felony does not have the same rights.
