    Discovery: Re: Discovery Denied.across the Board

    Anyone know about the first step in serving a subpoena to the State Patrol for me to obtain these documents? I talked to a friend in another state who is in law school and he said this is my best bet.

    Discovery: Denied Discovery by the Prosecutor

    I received a response from the County attorney today. All my discovery requests gun, LIDAR citation law (veiled way of asking if distance should be there), and notes regarding the incident (once...

    I'm sure it was right in a 16th Century dictionary. Again, not even used in the present day.

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    Enough with the semantics. "Alright' is obviously the more common spelling, and it's well accepted. "All right" can be used too, as "all" and "right" are proper, standalone words. It still looks...

    No, it's really ElSat. I looked it up. It's pronounced that way, so it's the same thing.

    Main Entry: LSAT
    Pronunciation: "el-"es-"A-'tE, 'el-"sat
    Function: abbreviation

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    Evidently, I don't think that by any means. I had to stand up against stupid replies, and I did.

    By the way, it's "Alright". All right doesn't make sense. I'd be concerned as to whatever law...

    Obviously everyone is ignoring the fact I didn't get to make the request to the judge. After I received my name change document, I specifically asked the clerk if I could speak with him, she said no,...

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    Not at all. This thread ended up getting diverted and turned into stupidity. We might as well be talking about professional wrestling at this point. I'm not asking to change any law.

    So, if Burger King sells me a whopper, and I'm dissatisfied - I need to write Burger King corporate? That's my only recourse using your rationale. You're right, shouldn't even consider something...

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    I was insulted first with the expected "if you don't like it - write your congressman" or telling me "the law is the law" BS. To be honest, I actually feared those types of response, then thought to...

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    So, some guy gets arrested for armed robbery, yet somehow gets that expunged because he served his time or had a good lawyer. Still an obvious criminal.

    Name Change Procedures: Re: Can Name Change Be Removed from Records

    It's uncommon to all of a sudden have an extra last name if you are a male. That's why. Especially, considering I was only known by one last name before the change.
