When domestic violence charges are filed in Fort Lauderdale, you may be concerned about one piece of evidence in particular: the 911 call. These recorded conversations can be pivotal in shaping how prosecutors and defense attorneys approach a case, yet many defendants don’t fully understand how this evidence works or what it means for their defense strategy. How 911 Calls Function as Evidence in Florida Domestic Violence Cases In Florida’s criminal justice system, 911 recordings serve as contemporaneous evidence—capturing statements and emotions in real-time as events unfold. These calls typically contain several key elements that courts examine closely: The caller’s emotional state is often immediately apparent through voice inflection, crying, shouting, or panic. Prosecutors frequently use this emotional distress to demonstrate the severity of an alleged incident and the victim’s state of mind. Background sounds can be equally telling. Courts may…

Like many Americans, I’m deeply alarmed by the escalating attacks on consumer protection in Washington – especially the efforts to gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Weakening this vital agency will lead to more fraud, more predatory lending, and greater risk of another economic crisis.I’m also deeply troubled by recent developments at the Federal Trade Commission, especially the unlawful removal of Commissioners Slaughter and Bedoya – two of the most dedicated public servants I’ve worked with. Their absence diminishes the agency, and they should be reinstated without delay.But I have not lost hope that over the coming years, the FTC can take meaningful steps to make markets more fair. On May 1, the agency brought an important suit against IM Mastery Academy – an MLM accused of making outrageous income claims to potential recruits. Today I want to urge the FTC to build on this momentum and take additional steps to protect…

[Like King Charles, he is abusing emergency powers to impose taxes without legislative authorization.] King Charles I (NA)  Yesterday, there were massive nationwide "No Kings" protests against Donald Trump and his authoritarian tendencies. Like most political slogans, "No Kings" is an oversimplification. But it is in fact true that Trump is repeating many of the abuses of the British monarchs, which precipitated the English Civil War, and eventually the American Revolution. The most obvious parallel is his use of detention, deportation, and imprisonment without due process, including targeting many legal immigrants who were never convicted of any crime. Similar practices by the British were among the major grievances that led to the American Revolution. They were also among the abuses of the Stuart monarchs of the 17th century that eventually led the British to curb royal authority. A less widely recognized parallel between the Stuarts and Trump is…

When someone dies due to another person's negligence or wrongful conduct, families often don't realize that New York law provides two separate legal pathways for seeking justice and compensation.

Various brief notes on assorted cases, including RROs, trespass and unlawful eviction for a licensee, and nuisance by football. Oh and use of make-up artists by a party… Pearton v Betterton Duplex Ltd (HOUSING – RENT REPAYMENT ORDER – rent paid before the start of the period when the offence was being committed) (2025) UKUT 175 (LC) The Upper Tribunal confirms that there is no jurisdiction to make a rent repayment order for a licensing offence where the only rent paid was rent in advance, prior to the start of the tenancy.  An RRO can only be made in relation to rent paid during the period the landlord is committing the offence, which is this licensing case started with the start of the tenancy. This is a position crying out for a swift (and simple) legislative change.
