The big law firms are very interested in this topic, I still get the Law Gazette and it's full of it, I'm sure they'd love to talk to somebody who actually knows something about it rather than LARPing solicitors. Not sure how you'd get your foot in the door without a qualification or some sort of portfolio of work though.

This is far from unusual, I told my GP I was suicidal and he said "What do you want me to do about it?" Not in an unkind way, and it's a perfectly reasonable question to ask, but it's not surprising men are killing themselves left right and centre. If women were killing themselves in these numbers it would be a major public health emergency, but again that isn't unreasonable, man have always been more dispensable for obvious biological reasons.

Nice is it worth reading? Do they post about interesting cases?

What an utter farce, can't believe the filth didn't even give you a lift home.

If I was you I'd have thrown myself into traffic and sued those cops for millions.

It is absolutely not worth reading other than the disciplinary reports, which are ~90% Pakistani and Nigerian solicitors doing mortgage fraud. Apparently this is because of institutional racism at the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

I was threatening to jump off a bridge. The police were shown some plans I'd written down that a family member had found.
If you meant what did I do after the police left, I breathed a sigh of relief that I had avoided being sectioned and then made my way home.
My family were surprised to see me back so soon. They wanted me to go and voluntarily admit myself the next day, but I ducked and dived it.

Why do you read it then? Do you know any sources where you can read of interesting court cases EG corruption & complex frauds????

I just read it out of habit, I used to be a solicitor and they stil, send it. Almost all the significant cases are on bailli if you want to read them, or there are specialist journals if there's a particular area of law that interests you. I don't know much about fraud, if you're interested you could check out the SFO website and then look up the full judgments on bailli. They will be hundreds of pages long and impossible to understand without an accounting background, and many of them involve one Russian company suing another. The Law Gazette is just a free magazine for solicitors, full of adverts for jobs and insurance companies, most solicitors throw it in the bin. Have a look if you're interested, the website is free to all:

Should have said, go here if you want law reports, but it's far from comprehensive and if you use it as your only updating source you are professionally negligent

Thanks lad. I will be back in a bit just going for a shower

Just subscribe to the inner temple library newsletter. It's free and a decent legal round up, or the Times' Brief section (free mostly).

describe the nightmares

Within weeks of that, I was still feeling suicidal and went to a bridge in the middle of the night and stood on the edge. I took my shoes and coat off and stood on the edge for a minute or more.
I'd then back out and rush home, but then I'd return a few nights later.
It went on like that for a month, then I started going less frequently and then I decided to postpone it for a while try a different medication to help me cope as I waited.
Since then I haven't really had those thoughts.

/comfy/ hours, the last thread was mainly anons advising one another about claiming benefits and dealing weed, no Irishmen telling us we will regret Brexit, no arguments

Tonight we had watching someone I know being skinned alive and a really unpleasant thing where my bones were methodically broken one by one. They're usually more flashbacks than hellraiser but different every night.

These are both good sources, although an excessive interest in legal matters among lay people is often a prelude to insanity

man that sucks. sometimes i get uncomfy weird dreams but i haven't had a proper nightmare since i was a kid.

This place genuinely isn't bad when the trips aren't around.

I've not been here much recently but how're we feeling about Brexit lads?

Believe it or not I'm actually in the legal profession on the fancy dress side

Happens for a few weeks every three to six months. I've seen some shit but there's no rhyme or reason to why or when this happens.
Some of them would make good movies though.

It is impossible to tell what will happen, if this is political theatre it is very elaborate and creative and I admire them. No deal is looking good, but anybody who tells you they know what will happen is deluded.

It's OK, I didn't mean you, I meant the user who was asking for sources. The only judges whose judgments I would read without being paid are Denning (sometimes), Peter Jackson and Antonin Scalia (who puts all our judges to shame, his dissents are often brutal and hilarious). Why anybody would do it in their free time is beyond me, especially fraud cases.

I've no idea either. There are some nice sort of lay-legal books like Is Eating People Wrong.
I do love a good Denning Judgement. He was also one of the first to get driven out over wrongthink

When I took morphine it gave me similar dreams, torturing people I knew to death and the like, very odd thing. Have you been taking any opiates?

No, oddly though I quit drinking three months back and it's made no difference.
It's gotten worse since moving but only a few more months left in London

His view that the Birmingham Six should have been hanged even though they were innocent is a tad harsh by modern standards, but his dissent in Miller v Jackson is so beautiful that it's hard to hold it against him. Scalia's dissent in Obergefell v Hodges is so brutal though, I wish they were all like this

>I join The Chief Justice’s opinion in full. I write separately to call attention to this Court’s threat to American democracy.

>The substance of today’s decree is not of immense personal importance to me. The law can recognize as marriage whatever sexual attachments and living arrangements it wishes, and can accord them favorable civil consequences, from tax treatment to rights of inheritance. Those civil consequences—and the public approval that conferring the name of marriage evidences—can perhaps have adverse social effects, but no more adverse than the effects of many other controversial laws. So it is not of special importance to me what the law says about marriage. It is of overwhelming importance, however, who it is that rules me. Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court. The opinion in these cases is the furthest extension in fact—and the furthest extension one can even imagine—of the Court’s claimed power to create “liberties” that the Constitution and its Amendments neglect to mention. This practice of constitutional revision by an unelected committee of nine, always accompanied (as it is today) by extravagant praise of liberty, robs the People of the most important liberty they asserted in the Declaration of Independence and won in the Revolution of 1776: the freedom to govern themselves.

It is impossible to imagine an English Supreme Court judge attacking his own institution like this, the whole dissent is well worth reading, he rips into the majority. He'll be sadly missed.

The British legal system benefited more from the death penalty than it ever did human rights (the concept) or Europe.

In fairness the supreme court in the UK like every other institution is enormously spineless.
Thank you for posting the judgement though. It reads a bit like a HOL judgement somehow.

I'm not sure this bit sounds like anything that has ever come from the English legal system
>The opinion is couched in a style that is as pretentious as its content is egotistic. It is one thing for separate concurring or dissenting opinions to contain extravagances, even silly extravagances, of thought and expression; it is something else for the official opinion of the Court to do so. Of course the opinion’s showy profundities are often profoundly incoherent. “The nature of marriage is that, through its enduring bond, two persons together can find other freedoms, such as expression, intimacy, and spirituality.” (Really? Who ever thought that intimacy and spirituality [whatever that means] were freedoms? And if intimacy is, one would think Freedom of Intimacy is abridged rather than expanded by marriage. Ask the nearest hippie. Expression, sure enough, is a freedom, but anyone in a long-lasting marriage will attest that that happy state constricts, rather than expands, what one can prudently say.) Rights, we are told, can “rise . . . from a better informed understanding of how constitutional imperatives define a liberty that remains urgent in our own era.” (Huh? How can a better informed understanding of how constitutional imperatives [whatever that means] define [whatever that means] an urgent liberty [never mind], give birth to a right?)...
>And the Equal Protection Clause, as employed today, identifies nothing except a difference in treatment that this Court really dislikes. Hardly a distillation of essence. If the opinion is correct that the two clauses “converge in the identification and definition of [a] right,” that is only because the majority’s likes and dislikes are predictably compatible.) I could go on. The world does not expect logic and precision in poetry or inspirational pop-philosophy; it demands them in the law. The stuff contained in today’s opinion has to diminish this Court’s reputation for clear thinking and sober analysis.

Can’t sleep

If you are involved in a fraud case and cannot avoid going to court, you should get a lawyer if you possibly can, it is a notoriously difficult area of law. The SFO puts millions into cases and can't get a result for the life of them. This is an area where litigants in person have almost no chance. Every lawyer has a story of how they were trounced by a litigant in person, but fraud cases... you usually need a team of people just to carry the bundle. These cases are a nightmare for the parties and a bonanza for the lawyers, stay out of it if you possibly can.

Sorry lads think I'm getting sleepy again (thank fuck).
Goodnight all.
Take care of yourself. Were it not 4:45 am I would very much enjoy talking to you further

Thanks user, no I'm not in trouble, I just find some frauds interesting as they were/are ways on finding holes in the 'system' and taking advantage of them, sometimes the most simplest ones are the most effective/profitable(like carousel frauds).

Ah, you want to DO a fraud. I'm afraid I can only provide legal advice after the crime, not before. Study a bit of accountancy and tax, ideas will come to you I'm sure. I'm all out of booze now so I'm going to bed, night night user, maybe some ultra-NEET will keep the thread going until morning when the wagies wake up, it will only be an hour or so until their alarms go off.
