The STATE of Texas. No. PD-1081-09. NO. 07–11–00213–CV - CRAIG MENDENHALL APPELLANT v. WARREN CLARK APPELLEE - TX Court of Appeals. Grits for Breakfast: Potter County Sheriff conv... An all-woman jury yesterday in Amarillo brought back a guilty verdict against Potter County Sheriff Mike Shumate for taking bribes from the Dallas-based commissary manager, Mid-America Services.
The "bribes" the state was able to prove were mostly meals, though quite a few of them, according to the Amarillo Globe News ("Shumate guilty," June 13): Shumate testified he never took any bribes, but did say he accepted meals from Austin and Jack Madera, the founder of Mid-America. Prosecutors with the Texas Attorney General's Office have shown receipts and bank statements that show Shumate attended about 36 meals with Madera and/or Austin that were paid for by the Mid-America employees.

Texas Penal Code - Section 42.07. Harassment - Texas Attorney Resources - Texas Laws. Child Support - Handbook for Non-Custodial Parents. Introduction The purpose of this handbook is to inform noncustodial parents about paternity establishment and child support services.
The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) believes that children do better when they have the love and support of both parents. SCOTUS has cell phones, and you need a warrant to search them after Riley v. California. When last we chatted, the Court of Criminal Appeals had held that people retain an expectation of privacy, albeit diminished, in their cell phones after those phones are collected with other personal belongings during the booking process.1 The Court did not decide whether the search-incident-to-arrest exception to the warrant requirement would justify a search of the contents of the phone, but the Court did observe that the United States Supreme Court had already granted review of the issue in two cases.
Well, police and practitioners did not have to wait long for the resolution to that issue. In Riley v. California, the United States Supreme Court held quite categorically that the warrantless search of a cell phone was not justified for officer safety or to prevent the destruction of evidence. And the only potential surprise in the opinion was not the result; rather, it was the vote count. What about “reasonable belief”?

NY court to decide if lap dance is tax-exempt art. No one would confuse the Nite Moves strip club with the Bolshoi Ballet, but what the lap dancers do there is art and entitled to the same tax exemption other performances enjoy, a lawyer argued Wednesday in what was surely one of the racier tax cases ever to go before New York's highest court.
W. Andrew McCullough, an attorney for the suburban Albany strip joint, told the Court of Appeals that admission fees and lap dances at the club should be freed of state sales taxes under an exemption that applies to "dramatic or musical arts performances. " He said that lap dancing is an art form and that, in any case, the state is not qualified to make such determinations, and that making such distinctions would be a violation of the constitutional right to freedom of expression. A lawyer for the state rejected that analysis, and authorities are demanding about $400,000 in back taxes from the club.
"We need to get past the idea that somehow this is the Bolshoi," Pigott said. Welcome to HackLawyer.net » Blog Archive » The price of free speech. While Fox News and other conservative news organizations are falling over themselves in coming to the defense of Phil Robertson’s repulsive, dirt-ignorant comments about gays and black, as reported in GQ Magazine, it seems the mantra I hear is that a guy just can’t state his opinion anymore for fear of the PC crowd having its revenge. Of course, this idea that Phil Robertson’s nasty thoughts are just one man’s “honest opinions” and nothing more is morally bankrupt. It reminds me of lunatic notion that we should treat all ideas and beliefs alike; you know, give equal time to all points of view such as presenting Hitler as a guy who either harbored psychotic delusions which started a world war and resulted in 100,000,000 deaths or was simply a misunderstood German who had the best intentions at heart to save his country from Bolshevism.
You decide! The better inquiry now is this: what does this family do?
