A Kansas attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for five weeks. As a GENERAL matter, the passage could arise in the context of having conscientious scruples against taking an oath, but a Kansas attorney should advise on exactly what it could mean in your particular situation....

When done as a form of protest it is considered free speech and to be a political activity, so it is protected by the constitution.
It is also the preferred method for disposing of a flag that has is no longer serviceable, the difference being that it is supposed to be done reverently.
Can it happen in a situation when the given Irish commissioner attended a social event against corona rules in Ireland and after that got a call from the Irish Prime Minister asking him to resign?
It might be difficult to get an answer to this question here - this forum deals mainly with U.S. law. Someone familiar with Irish law and government practices would need to answer this. Good luck

Dear Lawyers,
I would like to respect my privacy and not let my school teachers look into my household // room. I'm extremely uncomfortable with the fact that people can look into my house whenever they want. I would like to know if there is a law in California protecting my rights.
If you are using Zoom to log in for school, go to the settings in the Zoom application and choose a virtual background so the camera only shows you on screen and your immediate surroundings. Also make sure you are as close to the camera on your computer or tablet as you can be, so you fill the... Read more »

If necessary you will need to file an Action in General Sessions against the State. It is basically a Declaratory Judgment Action pursuant to Statute, and I believe you will need a competent attorney. This will need to be filed very soon.
An Idaho attorney would know this best, but your post remains open for two weeks. As a general matter, you could check the signage. As a GENERAL matter, bus lanes sometimes have times during which the restrictions to regular vehicles apply. Good luck

After they told my girlfriend a hour before that everything was fine then when I arrive at front desk a hour later to ask why my room wasn’t cleaned they say we have to check out and we already paid for the weekend up until Monday this incident happens Friday! So they kick us out with ZERO proof... Read more »
It would be racial discrimination if smokers of your race were the only smokers being kicked out of the hotel. You should request a refund of your payment as to the days you did not occupy the room. They may have a policy about extra cleaning of the room if you smoked in it. I understand the... Read more »
There's too much material on this to cover in the brief format of this board. Some legal critics felt that the Articles gave too much power to the states. That was one of the fundamental weaknesses cited by many legal critics. Good luck

I have COPD and have a hard time breathing. My local stores will not allow you in unless you have a mask on.
Probably not, because 51.7 incorporates 51, which states: "(c) This section shall not be construed to confer any right or privilege on a person that is conditioned or limited by law or that is applicable alike to persons of every sex, color, race, religion, ancestry, national origin,... Read more »
Curious criminal justice student.
If you ask five different attorneys, you could get five different answers. It could depend on what area of law they work in. For attorneys who work with free speech issues, the First Amendment is very important. Criminal defense attorneys refer to the Fourth Amendment for search and seizure issues.... Read more »
I'm technically in Lorain County. My landlord is cool but the realtor is now getting angry with my bf and I cause we were out of town for a showing that he failed to give a 24hr notice for. He's done it multiple times now and we have pets. What drew the line for him is when we refuse to... Read more »
The realtor has no legal rights and cannot require you to do anything. You don't even have to talk to him if you don't want to. You certainly don't have to leave the key in the box. Ohio law requires a landlord to give reasonable (24 hour) notice of having someone come in for an... Read more »
I'm not sure what you mean. I'm guess you mean to have someone be a confidential informant and not pay? I'd need more details before I could answer this question.
No one ever comes back to me. It would be a Habeas Corpus for Ineffective Assistance of Counselling. I am searching for a lawyer who can do some Pro Bono work and some paid work, I am fine with this either. You need to be eager to fight and must have the willing to win. I want a release date, this... Read more »
You can file your own Habeas Corpus motion without counsel if you need to. Depending on where you received your sentence, I would look for a lawyer who works in that area in order to assist you with what you may need to have done to potentially help you with the habeas petition and anything else...

I understand we are in a pandemic, my son has a fairly severe mental handicap, I feel it should be illegal to force me to attempt to homeschool him against my will and without compensation especially when I have absolutely no skill/ability in doing so.
Interesting take. While understandably a hardship, I don't think "forced servitude" covers taking care of your own children. Interestingly, there is no constitutional right to public schools as we know them; if they ceased to exist, all parents would be "forced" into servitude.
I was a passenger in a car I was helping transport back to Texas that I was legally borrowing to do repairs to. The driver (I just met) was hired by vehicle owner to help me make the trip, and unbeknownst to me in possession of meth and a R/X pill/s (of which we were both charged because it was... Read more »
You need to hire a criminal attorney to develop a defense. Do NOT give anyone a statement.
I had a officer refuse to file charges against a person that pressed a gun against my face and he also told me it was legal because I did not show fear. The police will not arrest him even though on the statement he gave to police he stated that he pulled a gun on me and punched my friend in the... Read more »
You need the advice of a good civil rights lawyer. One option you may have is to file suit against the perpetrator for assault and battery. There are some good civil rights lawyers in Fresno. Most good lawyers who handle these kinds of cases give free consultations. If the local DA's office... Read more »
He has motion to revoke parole & misdemeanor its non violent crime. Is there any motion or legal document I can help my husband with? What can I do to get the parole hold off him?? During this covid virus could that help him in his case 8th amendment??
Hire an attorney who focuses on parole work AND a criminal defense attorney for the trespassing case. Parole work is very different because it follows different rules so having one attorney who does both is not ideal. As they say, the jack of all trades is the master of none.
Do children that "dress differently" have the right to use that as a reason to talk about their religion or sexuality to other classmates?
Interesting question. Answer: It depends on how the teacher presents the discussion about the religion, and there is no limit on what students can talk about among themselves. If the teacher's presentation is for the purpose of discussing a different type of religion, or sensitizing students... Read more »

I'm sorry for your ordeal. Unfortunately, I don't believe you would have a cause of action for emotional distress, which is generally based more on intentional or reckless conduct that is outrageous on the part of the wrongdoer. But you could present the facts to other attorneys for their... Read more »

First make a written demand to the Chief of Police or the Sheriff to return your weapon. Then you need to file suit for Conversion against the City/County and the Officer that took the firearm with a SOL of 3 years. All this costs money and time, and many firearms are not worth the trouble. There... Read more »
