Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landon Reed is an ex-quarterback convicted of organizing a points-shaving scheme. During his time in prison, he found forgiveness and faith and earned his law degree. Now he longs for an opportunity to prove his loyalty and worth. Be careful what you ask for. Harry McNaughton is one of the founding partners of McNaughton & Clay—and the only lawyer willing to take a chance employing an ex-con-turned-lawyer. Though Landon initially questions Harry’s ethics and methods, it’s clear the crusty old lawyer has one of the most brilliant legal minds Landon has ever encountered. The two dive into preparing a defense for one of the highest-profile murder trials Virginia Beach has seen in decades when Harry is gunned down in what appears to be a random mugging. Then two more lawyers are killed when the firm’s private jet crashes. Authorities suspect someone has a vendetta against McNaughton & Clay, leaving Landon and the remaining partner as the final targets. As Landon struggles to keep the firm together, he can’t help but wonder, is the plot related to a shady case from McNaughton & Clay’s past, or to the murder trial he’s neck-deep in now? And will he survive long enough to find out?

Book excerpt: Dead Lawyers and Other Please Thoughts is the first collection the best from Non Sequitur, the sharp, sly new syndicated comic strip that has addicted fans from coast to coast. Cartoonist Wiley's irreverent, satirical wit, combined with his superbly crafted illustrations, confirm once and for all the sneaking suspicion that the universe is one big joke at humanity's expense. Non Sequitur explores the absurd and the unexpected with outrageously funny sendups of everything from the plight of the homeless to the might of defense attorneys; Dead Lawyers continues that tradition by refusing to conform to the monotonous, row-upon-row layout of most comic strip collections. As Wiley himself says, "Humor knows no bounds, and neither do my cartoons."

Download or read book The Law and the Dead written by Heather Conway and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fate of the dead is a compelling and emotive subject, which also raises increasingly complex legal questions. This book focuses on the substantive laws around disposal of the recently deceased and associated issues around their post-mortem fate. It looks primarily at the laws in England and Wales but also offers a comparative approach, drawing heavily on material from other common law jurisdictions including Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. The book provides an in-depth, contextual and comparative analysis of the substantive laws and policy issues around corpse disposal, exhumation and the posthumous treatment of the dead, including commemoration. Topics covered include: the legal frameworks around burial, cremation and other disposal methods; the hierarchy of persons who have a legal duty to dispose of the dead and who are entitled to possession of the deceased’s remains; offences against the dead; family burial disputes, and the legal status of burial instructions; the posthumous use of donated bodily material; and the rules around disinterment, and creating an appropriate memorial. A key theme of the book will be to look at the manner in which conflicts involving the dead are becoming increasingly common in secular, multi-cultural societies where the traditional nuclear family model is no longer the norm, and how such legal contests are resolved by courts. As the first comprehensive survey of the laws in this area for decades, this book will be of use to academics, lawyers and judges adjudicating on issues around the fate of the dead, as well as the death industry and funeral service providers.

Book excerpt: In 1997, Maggie Redmon was divorcing her disbarred husband, Scott, so she wasn’t at the hospital when his girlfriend Brandi—a defrocked nurse he’d met in drug treatment—gave conflicting versions of exactly how and when he’d fallen deathly ill that morning. At the funeral home visitation, Maggie learns that Scott changed his will mere hours before he died and bequeathed half a million dollars to Brandi, the last person to see him alive. Using the medical and legal knowledge acquired in her career as a disability examiner and professional counselor, and her decade as a civil court mediator, she embarks on a quest for truth and justice.
