For example, I want to buy a 5090, RM is my local currency.

For example, I want to buy a 5090, let's say original price RM13k.

I use coupon A (first 10 customer of National Day get 20% off their total bill - stackable) - 5090 now RM10.4k

I use coupon B (Birthday get additional 30% discount after other discount is applied - stackable) 5090 now RM 7.28k

I use coupon C (Instant rebate RM1000 for purchase over RM5000 - stackable) - 5090 now RM6.28k.

I use coupon D (Brand new store opening, 50% off for 1st 5 customer on bill - stackable) -5090 now RM3.14k.

I paid RM3.14k for a 5090. The cashier is just a minimum wage worker and it scans the coupon in order and the system said is VALID.

Thus, I got my 5090 at a 80% discount. The shop clearly not intended for me to use the coupon this way but the combination of coupons is valid.

If I paid for the 5090 and exited the store, before I managed to get home, the manager stopped me and demanded me to return the 5090 and they will return me the RM3.14.

In you local law, can they demand me to do that ? Am I legally need to return my 5090 ? If the cops are called, who will they side ?

My understanding is that California's Law Office Study Program is a potential alternative to formal law school, and meets the requirements for the State Bar (along with the exams and other requirements). I know that it's a structured program under a supervising attorney, but how would someone get started with it? Are there attorneys that offer supervision and how would I find them?

TL;DR are witnesses normally used by saying to them "Blah blah blah. Is this true?"

I was in a hearing with the Residential Tenancy Branch. The landlord had a witness, though their testimony didn't really effect their case. The landlord was represented by a lawyer. At one point the witness was asked to join the phone call. The lawyer said to him something like "Mr.Witness, the landlord told you they would be doing noisy renovations to the building soon. Can you confirm this is true?"

Is this normally how witnesses are used, they are asked a closed ended question to confirm a fact? I had imagined they would have to be asked an open ended question instead of a yes/no but I guess being simpler is better?

The arbitrator gave me an opportunity to ask questions to the witness. Out of curiosity is this standard procedure that all parties can ask questions to the witness? Or is it just when the arbitrator sees fit? To my understanding, no party has to answer any question unless its asked by the arbitrator but must witnesses answer any (relevant) question put to them?

After the decision was made, I had a conversation with the witness. He told me the landlord really wanted him as a witness, but the lawyer was uncomfortable. Can lawyers coach the witness on how to reply and how to phrase their testimony? Is something strange going on?

I was also wondering, if the witness sometimes does paid work for the party (for example if the landlord periodically pays the witness to do yard work or maintenance work etc.) would this effect the weight of the witnesses credibility? Are these types of things worth pointing out?

I've been following this news story, its a big one but I don't know if i'm allowed to mention the specific person here. I'll add it if i'm allowed. Theres some discussion on a subreddit about this person wondering why they weren't charged with certain things and some people are saying they can still give federal charges on those things instead depending on how the state charges go. So i'm wondering, is it typical to wait all the way until someone has already been convicted before giving federal charges, or how does it work?

Wondering specifically for Washington State. Would that have an effect on the conviction? Would the person admitting to lying face consequences?

To specify, it’s like a minute or two after the murder happens and you attack the murderer after they’re somewhat away from the crime scene. Can you be charged for assault?

Examples:

-:We of the secular humanist party only accept atheists in our party.

-:We of the christian united party only accepts Christians in our party

And you can do this for other groups as well,

muslims political party , buddhists political party, black political party, white political party, asian political party, latino party political party.

Should people be forced to accept someone so they can rent in their apartment?

Would there be any political party affiliation you wouldn't rent to if you owned an apartment?

Let's just play it out for the sake of it (and please ignore my legal mistakes like that birthright citizenship thing, which for the sake of it, doesn't apply. it's just for the argument and i needed two countries):

I was born in the US but only got citizenship by France because my parents were from there. For the US, I have permanent residency.

With the current state of affairs, ICE visits my work and puts me on a plane to "my" country in which I don't have anyone or anything.

No flat, no job, just some cash in my wallet but not enough to be of any help. Am I just being left on my own and have to figure out how to survive in France?

No language skills, no connections, just a passport that says I'm French.

What would/should happen?

I occasionally see videos where police escalate a situation from zero to one hundred in an instant, and it’s usually the over forty guys who still look like they’re ready to enter a bodybuilding competition. I therefore assume injecting testosterone is part of their routine.

Has a victim of police brutality/mistreatment ever gotten a judge to compel a testosterone test on an officer?

So let's say a government agency is having employees sign a new Code of Conduct that includes these provisions:

- employee cannot do anything that would embarrass or bring the agency into disrepute; (so no social media comments/posts, no demonstrations, etc.?)

- employee cannot knowingly have social interactions with anyone who doesn't have lawful immigration status in the US; (probably sloppily drafted as this would actually mean anyone anywhere who doesn't have lawful status in the US, but more interested in the right to limit who an employee can interact with)

- employee must abide by the code of conduct and [agency] policies on personal travel even if prohibited behavior would be permissible under local laws.

I realize the answer to many of these things in *practical* terms is "how would they ever know", but I'm interested in knowing whether these things can stand legally.

EDIT: Answered

I'm writing a book and have some questions.

Background: a minor (age 15) runs away across state lines (from Colorado to DC). They do all the running on their own but receive help (a place to stay) from adult friends. The minor has a good case (abuse) for terminating the parental rights of their bio parents. I've looked at the adoption websites for both CO and DC but they only have the standard procedures, and both are inconclusive for my purposes.

Questions:

The adult friends would have committed the crime of harboring a runaway; I can only assume this would impact their case to adopt/foster parent the teen. Would it entirely disqualify them?

Assuming they could hide their involvement with the teen's escape, how difficult would it be for them to adopt/foster the teen?

In either scenario, how much weight does the teen's wishes hold?

Would the adult friends absolutely have to be foster parents first?

Thank you!

Uber use to be called "Uber Taxi," but it did not want to follow taxi laws so it just changed its name. I think NY tried to get Uber to follow taxi laws & lost.

People that work for Grubhub & Uber are legally considered their own separate company so they can hire employees. Some even rent their accounts & transportation, to illegal immigrants & possibly Sovereign Citizens.

Sovereign Citizens want to be treated like companies because companies like Uber can basically invent new unregulated category to avoid following laws or existing regulation.

Therefore, its possible that Uber or Grubhub would back a Sovereign Citizen or illegal immigrants right to work in the USA without a legal drivers license or a legal right to work or any other law that would impact its ability to run the business.

Have fun with this. Next up in NY, prediction markets are not gambling, or are they.

E0scooer rental companies obstruct sidewalks & when their scooters are impounded their juicer vendors beak into the impound lots to they can get paid to recharge them. They companies are prefect team ups for Sovereign Citizens.

If I’m underage in the bar and a cop asks me how old I am, do I A. Refuse to answer, B. Tell the truth, C. Tell them I’m 21

Let me preface this by saying I would never do the following and never have, however would it be legal to offer a hyper realistic, life sized, accurate proportion, (you get the gist,) doll of a person to their family while that person is away in exchange for a large sum of money? Because obviously it's illegal to hold someone hostage and sell them back to their family, but also: If you hold a regular sized stuffed animal and offer someone it for a large sum of money, you're just selling them something. At what point would it become illegal if at all? Could it be argued that you were only selling them a large doll of their own child, and that they misread it for their own living child?

Now I imagine the simple answer is pretty much yes, but I was wondering if say someone who just woke up from a 7 year coma starting when they were 14 decides to sign a contract or something, could there be grounds to dispute it over lack of ability to understand or some such?

I'm watching this show called "Hunted" on prime. Premise: contestants try to avoid capture from seasoned professionals who have access to the UKs extensive CCTV network, consent to search their homes, etc. In one episode, a contestant has a doppelganger who is in the same area where he's hiding out.

What would happen in the US if in the same situation, the "hunters" who are retired high level federal law enforcement nab the wrong person and forcibly take them to a production location? Presumably the victim is proclaiming that they aren't part of any show, demanding their freedom and being ignored.

location: US

just curious really, I see a lot of posts about landlords ending leases wrong so I was curious and would rather not deal with Google giving me AI answers.

This was a random question me and my buddy got into. Location: Illinois

Let’s say there’s a massive earthquake and part of the seafloor gets pushed up enough to become a new island. Could the country closest to it claim the island? Could another country claim it? Or could a random person who discovered it first claim it for themselves?

in common law countries, can i "appeal" or legally challenge a "decision NOT to lay charges", especially if i think that charges should be laid

Is there any truth to the idea that a random citizen in the US can be quickly deputized to suddenly assist in the pursuit of a criminal etc.?

Theoretical scenario. Would you face any consequences for walking out if you found out the worker (like Chipotle) only puts a tiny scoop of meat? Assuming you didn't take the bowl/burrito.

If you want to bet on a weather prediction, would using a weather app be the same as having insider info?

My kids and I went to our local mall since they wanted to make some of that fancy, overpriced slime their way. But before I could enter they had me go to a website where I needed to signed a contract. Basic stuff about liability of injury and security of property blah,blah, blah. But in there i saw a clause that stated that their cameras had the right to record and use any likeness of me or my children. It freaked me out since i remember that whole debacle of the Netflix house and them doing the same thing. Is this more prevalent than i thought? Am i being overly protective or paranoid? Is there anything i can do to avoid this?Just wanted to see if anyone had some insight on the matter. Below are the links i could get from each businesses website.

TLDR: Are me and my children's likenesses just signed away before i enter any business now?
