Tuesday's Three Burning Legal Questions
Here are today's three burning legal questions, along with the answers provided by the blogosphere.
1) Question: I received a summons to serve on a jury, but I don't want to do it. I'm only nine years old, plus I'm kind of shy around adults and I don't even get home from elementary school until 4 p.m. Can I get out of this somehow?
Answer: You had me at "only nine years old." Have your mom call the court -- sometimes the county will enter a citizen's date of birth into the system incorrectly and accidentally summon a 9-year-old. (Cape Cod Times, Cape third-grader gets jury summons)
2) Question: I am in a same-sex marriage. We were married in San Francisco but now live in Maryland. We now want to get a divorce but the Maryland courts won't let us. What are we supposed to do now? Stay married forever?
Answer: The Court of Appeals of Maryland is set to decide that issue next month. Stay tuned. (The Baltimore Sun, Same-sex divorce case heads to top Maryland court)
3) Question: I am a police officer. While I was on duty I ended up having sex in my squad car. Unfortunately, I also managed to broadcast the audio of this encounter over an open radio channel accessible to anyone with a police scanner. Is this going to be a problem?
Answer: I'm afraid you can be expected to be relieved of your duties until the allegations surrounding these "inappropriate communications" are resolved. (My FOX Memphis, Cop Caught Having Sex in Squad Car)
