Questions for Judge_Dave

How many times should I play a state lottery and lose before I can sue the state for damages roughly the same amount as a typical seven-figure jackpot?
 
Do you think I should answer my questions when I am not in the right mind? In other words, should I start smoking pot?
Just kidding.
 
Speaking of a clear head-say this happened.

An individual gets so intoxicated one evening that it isn't until the next day that the individual discovers he sold his car to another patron in the bar the evening before. The question now is whether that individual can avoid the contract with the patron in the bar for the purchase and sale of the car. Can the contract be avoided?

Support your answer with a reasoned legal analysis.
 
Alabama Law

Fact: An Alabama statute provided that a woman, a married woman could not sell her land without the consent of her husband. A married woman attempted to do just that. Her husband did not give permission and it made the contract void. The person purchasing the land sued the couple saying the law is unconstitutional.

Knowing what you do about the constitution, give your analysis about the situation.

Question for Everybody

Please read about "E-Commerce & Cyberlaw – Contact Formation on the Internet" campaign on page 297 (Principles page 271) of your textbook and share your thoughts on electronic consent to contracts on the online discussion board.

When signing up for a service, downloading content, or conducting other tasks on the Internet, do you typically read any portion of the service provider's agreement before clicking "Yes" to indicate that you agree to its terms and/or give your consent to the web site owner?
Why or why not?

Does the type of service or content you are requesting (i.e. downloading music versus opening an online bank account) determine whether or not you are likely to read these?

Do you generally view these on-line agreements to be as binding as those that you agree to and physically sign off-line? Explain.

If the individual was in fact impaired, and thus was not competent to enter into any contracts/agreements the contract could be voided.

Most people don't read them I think. The companies have them to protect themselves.
 
Dear Judge Dave,
I am writing a paper about a guy who has been accused of a terrible horrible crime. Only he has not done it. Unfortunately the only information I can find is if someone is a victim of the crime.
There is not a lot of help for someone in this man's position.

I can't even write it here.
The guy was taken advantage of by a 15 year old girl (who isn't all there) but she doesn't understand and the parents want to press charges, saying he should have known better-but he didn't do anything and nothing happened. She just got naked in front of him and then later said it was his fault.

Seriously try and find information about this! I can't!
 
Yeah

Ok lets talk about negotiable instruments!

A negotiable instrument is an unconditional promise or order to pay a fixed sum of money that is payable to bearer or order, is payable on demand or at a definite time and does not state any other undertaking or instruction in addition to the payment of money. A negotiable instrument is a signed, written promise or order to pay a specific sum of money. Written or electronic permissible.

What
 
You promise to pay somebody, you have to pay them when they demand it, unless you've set a date.

All you do is pay them, and there are no other strings attached, like having to jump up and down and sing a song about cats or some such.

If they don't have the money when you demand it, are you legally allowed to break their legs or chop off a finger or two?
