"WHAT DO I DO WITH THE PORN ON MY COMPUTER?": HOW A LAWYER SHOULD COUNSEL CLIENTS ABOUT PHYSICAL EVIDENCE Peter A. Joy* & Rodney J. Uphoff** INTRODUCTION Imagine you are a parent, and a plastic bag containing white powder falls out of your twenty-year-old child's jacket as you move it to hang up your own jacket. Based on what you've seen in movies and on television, you are sure the baggie contains drugs. You confront your child, and, after she accuses you of spying on her, she tearfully admits that the bag contains cocaine. What do you do? If you are like most parents, even the most law-abiding, you are unlikely to march your child down to the nearest police station.

  • Retail Detail Holiday Blues for Employers in New England
    Retail Detail Holiday Blues for Employers in New England The holiday season brings an extra surprise for New England employers this year: two additional “holidays” that impose premium pay and voluntariness of work requirements for certain employees working December 26 or January 2. Employers doing business in Massachusetts and Rhode Island may already be familiar with “Blue Laws” imposing certain requirements for work performed on Sundays and certain holidays. When certain holidays, including Christmas and New Year’s Day, fall on a Sunday – as they do this year – those holidays legally are observed on the following Monday. For those two weeks, the Blue Laws apply to both the actual holiday (because it is a Sunday) and the following Monday (because it is a legal holiday). What does this mean for employers in those states? As explained below, the answer varies based on the state and nature of the employer’s business. Massachusetts Retail Employers Retail employers in Massachusetts may not open on December 25, and retail employers operating on December 26, January 1, and January 2 must follow unique requirements regarding premium pay and voluntariness of work. Retail businesses must pay non-exempt employees who work on those days premium pay of least one and one-half times their regular rate of pay. This premium pay can be off set against any overtime worked in the same workweek. For example, if an employee works a total of 48 hours during the week of December 25, and 8 of those hours are on December 26, the employee is due a total of 40 hours of pay at his regular rate and 8 hours of pay at one and on-half times his regular rate.

  • Examining Canada's Legal Response to the Clash of Public Safety And
    Volume 13, 2010 TOURO INTERNATIONAL LAW REVIEW - 1 - Security and the Sacred: Examining Canada’s Legal Response to the Clash of Public Safety and Religious Freedom By Michael Baker ABSTRACT In recent years, the Supreme Court of Canada has grappled with the issue of religious freedom within the public sphere. Particularly, the Court has examined the question of when, if ever, religious freedom should yield to perceived public safety concerns. These perceived concerns have involved numerous forms of expression, but the discussion has most often focused on the kirpan , a small dagger, and an important article of the Sikh faith. This article examines the rulings of Canadian courts with respect to this and other faith-based articles of expression, and posits that a clear, consistent legal approach has yet to be articulated. The article then attempts to outline what a desirable rule for these cases would look like, taking Canada’s legal history and prevailing values into consideration in doing so. TABLE OF C ONTENTS I.

The “Right to Farm” and Missouri’s Review of Constitutional Amendments ANGELA KENNEDY* INTRODUCTION The Missouri River Basin is comprised of more than 100 million acres of cropland across nine states, including Missouri.1 It produces nearly half of U.S. wheat, nearly a quarter of its grain corn, and over a third of its cattle, and in 2008, the value of these crops and livestock exceeded $100 billion.2 Mis- souri’s share in this revenue, however, contributed to less than three percent of Missouri’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) in 2013:3 not what one would call the “foundation and stabilizing force of Missouri’s economy,” or even a “vital sector of Missouri’s economy.”4 Yet these assertions are memorialized * B.A., Brigham Young University, 2010; J.D.
