Is this the sort of suit that Snook defends? (42 USC ยง1983 against Torrance CA)
http://www.californiaconcealedcarry.com/cccw/cache/pdffiles/torrance_complaint.pdf

Do attorneys always lose their dignity when process is being served?

Yes. As a matter of fact that would be the type of case we defend - IF by type 
you mean someone suing an municipality or other governmental entity. This case 
sounds very strange.  I don't understand why the city would have this policy 
and I certainly don't understand why they would announce it as their policy.  
But, if I was defending it, I don't get to consider my own values, I represent 
the client.  I am not very impressed with the complaint.

Did you notice that the plaintiff's attorney is from a firm called Nelson and 
Lawless?

I think if my name was Lawless, I would not be a lawyer.  Just think if he was 
a Judge?  Judge Lawless, sounds like a Batman villain.

There was a Dr Quinn, MD here locally until she got married. Her first name
was not Michaela though. I guess she took her husband's name to get away
from Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman as portrayed by Jane Seymour.

A lot of CA police chiefs and sheriffs have a policy of denying all CCW 
applications, except for
friends and contributors. I guess Torrance was just trying to be helpful with 
that letter:
Here's the application you requested, but you may want to save yourself the

because it's our policy to deny all applications.

my uncle came to america as layos helmeci in the early 60s.  he was a
doctor working out of mt sinai hospital in nyc.  another doctor there
advised him that if he didn't change his name to something people could
relate to, he would be hindering his career.  my uncle, an ambitious man,
couldn't stand the idea of having to live on the 22nd floor instead of the
penthouse of his building on the east side, asked the more senior physician
what name he might suggest.  at the time, the other man was reading a book
by lillian hellman and thought that was a good name.  henceforth my uncle
was dr larry hellman, and even though he did move up to the duplex penthouse
on the east side, he never got out of the habit of shopping the fur
department at alexanders, so i grew up wearing the funkiest ghetto fur coats
from the 70s.

Is it possible to sue for damages when he has not been actually damaged? 
Seems like the Heller V Wash DC had more plaintiffs until a judge ruled only 
one had been damaged by the cities law denying any guns in DC unless 
disassembled.

2008-06-17 Thread LarryT
At last count I believe 40 states now have Shall Issue regulations 
meaning the govt must issue if the applican passes the background test and 
takes the training course.  BTW, the training course is very helpful for 
someone not very familiar with guns.  My wife for one.  Although she had 
fired guns in the past she was surprised to find how difficult it is to hit 
a target at ~20' with a handgin small enough to be easily concealed.  Her 
past shooting irons had 6 or longer barrels which are much easier to aim.
But she passed the test -
;-)

The latest numbers are :
Thirty-six states have shall issue laws, requiring that carry permits be 
issued to applicants who meet uniform standards established by the state 
legislature. Three have fairly-administered discretionary-issue carry permit 
systems. One, Vermont, respects the right to carry without a permit. Alaska, 
one of the shall issue states, has its permit system for the purpose of 
permit-reciprocity with other states, and also adopted a no-permit-required 
law in 2003.
. There are 10 non-RTC states. Eight have restrictively-administered 
discretionary-issue systems. Only two-Illinois and Wisconsin-have no permit 
system and prohibit carrying.
