Apparently that kind of phone phreaking is being used to fund terrorist organizations, so maybe frame it as a national security issue while you're at it. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/nov/28/philippines-arrests-phone-scam-hacking Also, most of the organizations hacked had lax security measures like default passwords, which could be how the phone company made the determination that the firm was liable for the calls placed.

Jesus just switch to a credit union and quit bellyaching. It's almost certain you already agreed to arbitration in previous agreements. Though I'm pretty sure credit unions are also going to have you go though arbitration.

Not really a personal legal question, but hopefully one of you guys remember enough constitutional law to tell me re: Hosanna-Tabor Church v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, today's big supreme court decision. Does it basically allow employment discrimination of protected groups so long as they are employed as "ministers" under the law? Like you can explicitly be fired or not hired due to race/disability/whatever as long as the position in question is "ministerial"? Is there precedent for this/was that sort of discrimination exemption ever limited to firing ministers based on their religious activities? Let me know if there's a thread in d&d better suited to this.

So a preacher who became ill could be fired explicitly because their church didn't want to pay the higher insurance premiums?

Wow, if George Carlin were alive he'd have a field day with this. I mean, why not ask a prostitute? She's a member of a profession (the worlds oldest!) and she's got standing in the community, although that phrase could be prefaced with "low moral."

You guys are coming down pretty hard on a guy whose literally only contact with the courts in his entire life began a week ago. I sure as poo poo would have assumed that a public defender would be overworked and more likely to encourage a lame plea that would have moved me off his caseload, and I am willing to bet that incidents like that happen even if they are the exception. Should a layperson be expected to know that PDs>private counsel as a matter of course?

Jesus chaodmaster if you're gong to practice interne law without a license try to at least read the post. Fascinator, what do you have in writing from your insurance? If you have documented approval for the procedure you need to appeal the claim denial. If not, appeal it anyway. If that fails, speak with the doctor's office and explain the situation to see of you can be charged the "no insurance" price you were quoted.

Hahah, yeah I don't know why you thought the health care industry couldn't engage in price discrimination. It gets crazier than that: they have different prices between private insurers , as well as medicare/Medicaid and the uninsured. If you have a problem with it write your state representatives to get a law on the books like California's that requires docs and hospitals to disclose their price lists, not that it will actually bring down health care costs.

FordCQC posted:This is more on the right track than whoever claimed "price discrimination" above, but still not right. Healthcare services have a cost, which is the internal value of the service, and a list price that is what is billed to the payer (insurance or otherwise). The cost is lower than the list price because the healthcare provider is a business and is trying to make a profit... Maybe you didn't take Econ 101, but different prices to different consumers=price discrimination. Senior discounts, coupons are all ways of attracting consumers who would otherwise not purchase at the market price, or to maximize profits from consumers willing to pay above the market price, as in the case of private insurance. I realize it sounds pedantic, but I think it's impossible to have a good discussion about the ridiculousness of the health care system without using accurate terminology.

FordCQC posted:Hey, since we're being antagonistic, maybe you should go back to remedial English, since your reading comprehension is woefully lacking. The same price is being offered to everyone. Given that fact, go back and read my post and see if you can figure out why different insurance companies pay different amounts for the same services from the same provider. Take it easy, dude. The why isn't relevant to the question of price discrimination. All that matters to satisfy the definition is what youve stated here: that different consumers pay different prices. This is independent of mechanism.

Busy Bee posted:Man, you guy's are rough! Going through my post history and basically assuming that since I talk and ask about illegal drugs I must be a criminal who hates cops. Don't be such a hyperbolic jackass. If you're routinely engaged in illegal activities it's highly likely that you are eventually going to deal with law enforcement at some point. It should not have a come as a surprise to you. In fact if you are going to be a recreational drug user, you may as well budget for the legal costs of your hobby. On the other hand, this encounter might be a good opportunity to asses your drug use and whether you're better off making some lifestyle changes.

No, you idiot. "Other people do it all the time" is exactly what you're saying, and it's exactly the wrong defense. You can and should plead poverty as lawyers who understand How Things Work are telling you. You're twenty and have never handled any kind of legal matter before, I would defer to the professionals.

Also the legal Qs thread is at its best when it's about incredibly petty non-criminal stuff between two irresponsible parties.

I have a new favorite thread, and wanted to ask about some of the issues raised. For the sake of argument let's say heterosexual couple in Illinois, but if the state you know best would be interesting include it here. The rough sequence of events is: Man has spouse of 7 years. She disappears, 2 days later communicates that she wants a divorce. About a week after that has a full on psychotic episode that leads to a 4 month hospitalization. Husband meanwhile thinks her desire for divorce was genuine and proceeds with a no fault divorce. My questions: Does she have capacity to agree to divorce? Can one submit a no fault divorce if a spouse lacks the capacity to contest it? Can the divorce be finalized under those circumstances? If she is hospitalized and not released until after the divorce was finalized and she would have contested if she had capacity, are there legal proceedings that allow her to contest it after the fact?
