Thursday's Three Burning Legal Questions
Here are today's?three burning legal questions, along with the answers provided by the blogosphere.
1. Question:?I am a police officer. I was sent to "gather evidence" about a dog that was supposedly barking excessively despite a noise abatement order. No joke, my job was to go count the number of barks, which for the record was?863 barks in 23 minutes. Now that I have gathered this evidence, can the owner of the dog be fined?
Answer:?Yes, that is clearly too many barks. (This is Somerset,?Man fined for allowing dogs to bark 863 times in 23 minutes) (via Lowering the Bar)
2. Question:?The police set up a barricade around a fatal accident but I drove right through the police tape into the crime scene and nearly knocked over an officer. The police are trying to charge me with drunk driving but I explained to them that I cannot be arrested because I already had a court appearance the next morning for driving under the influence. The police seem unconvinced by my argument -- who is correct?
Answer:?Not you. (Daily Mail, Woman arrested for drunk-driving after she crashes through police barricade says she can't be jailed as she is due in court the next day - for drunk driving)
3. Question:?I donated sperm to a lesbian couple in Kansas that wanted to have a baby. These parents?filed for state assistance this year, and now the state is demanding that I pay child support! Can it do this?
Answer:?The issue is now being litigated but the state of Kansas believes that sperm donors who do not make their "contribution" through a licensed physician can be required to pay?child support. (CBS News,?Kansas trying to make sperm donor pay child support)
