License To Enter Disclaimer Ever wonder what happed to that fat bully in grade school that delighted in stealing your hat for a game of keep-away with his buddies, when they weren’t otherwise occupied stealing somebody’s milk money? Or the little snot that was always running to teacher, tattling? They grew up to be lawyers. The first group kept their association going as the Law firm of firm of Stealler, Obisesvant, and Bullygui, or SOB, Inc., and have hired themselves out to run up the cost of what you and I pay for buying a new motorhome. The other guy went on to taking all the fun out of everything by specializing as a class action lawyer, working on banishing motorhomes, period, for his financial gain. All this is a stir-the-pot money making collaboration with colleagues were elected to Congress to make laws favorable to there profession, and PAC supporters. Unfortunately, the net result is that unsupported special interest groups are the ones paying the price, through a loss of freedom on the road, and the sense of pride we used to have, “doing it the American Way!” Today, some motorhome manufactures have the idea it is cheaper to squirt a bit of foam to hold a wire in place, instead of fastening it properly, if you have enough in-house lawyers to answer claims before they happen. How do I know all this? Read between the lines of a motorhome owner’s manual to see how many legal disclaimers there are per page. Remember also, that some of the very important information you needed to make your buying decision, was not available until the manual, and your unit was delivered —too late to complain, as we wanted to object to Jayco, after our certified check had cleared, about their “law,” that our unit was, “to be only used in a recreational manner and is not intended for use as full-time quarters!” Corporate lawyers worried about winning jury trials over such consumer violations have been known to write into the small print that disagreements be solved by industry approved arbitrators to mediate disputes. So, taking heed of the unfair financial risk of mentioning an actual manufacturers name in front of a hired gun, on the main street of Injustice, Arizona Territory, let me be the one to set a few rules. 1) As lawyers do not believe in fairness, nothing that appears on the clearly marked ToolBox pages is subject to a “fair use doctrine,” as defined in copyright laws of the United States of America. Accessing any of the material on this website for the purpose of filing an action against the publisher will be violation of your license agreement to enter. I am not so sure how the F.B.I. criminal charges covering copyright would apply doing so, since I may accidentally have abetted the defendant in violating the free speech article of the Constitution, but that too is something we will leave to the court of public opinion, not arbitration, to decide. 2) Note that everyone who wishes to enter these protected pages is considered an individual. Lawyers need to know that if you violate the copyright restrictions of me as the author, I will file a civil suit against you, personally. I have no legal training above that of an office boy for an attorneys firm, and learning to “object” by watching TV shows, but even I know where in a courthouse where a citizen may file a hard to read handwritten complaint, and how to reach a city desk. |
