Download or read book Florida Affirmative Defenses and Oprocedural Objections written by Joshua B. Spector and published by Daily Business Review. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Florida Affirmative Defenses and Procedural Objections guides practitioners on the use, pleading, and application of defenses and procedural objections in Florida state civil cases. In particular, the book surveys common and useful defensive motions and procedural objections to be made during the pleading phase of a case. Further, the book examines and discusses various affirmative defenses, including pleading requirements, jury concerns, and notable authority on each defense. Moreover, and of immediate use, the book provides the practitioner with useful forms for each defense. This edition focuses on the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and does not delve into the companion rules or differences found in, for example, the Florida Probate Rules or the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure. One of the goals of this book is to aid practitioners in both identifying useful, pertinent defenses, and also pleading those defenses in a manner that is resistant to attack or dismissal. While many books offer an obligatory section on historical common law considerations, this book hopes to focus on some basic concepts that are assembled not for their historical value but because these concepts guide and shape the case law governing the pleading, striking, and dismissal of affirmative defenses. The last decade witnessed a tremendous spike in foreclosure filings, [1]particularly in Florida.[2] A peculiar side effect of these cases is the proliferation of certain defenses and yet more sophisticated defense-strategies that featured the use of affirmative defenses to prolong the pleading phase of cases and keep trial and resolution at bay. Certainly, dilatory tactics and so-called sand-bagging are as old as the courts. But this decade, in the opinion of the authors, featured a concentrated dose of motion practice that regarded the pleading of affirmative defenses. While the flurry of activity served to educate the judiciary and promote stricter controls on the pleading of affirmative defenses, the lack of understanding about affirmative defenses suffered by many practitioners came to the forefront.

Download or read book Calcutta written by Krishna Dutta and published by Signal Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the popular imagination, Calcutta is a packed and pestilential sprawl, made notorious by the Black Hole and the works of Mother Teresa. Kipling called it a City of Dreadful Night, and a century later V.S. Naipaul, Gunter Grass and Louis Malle revived its hellish image. This is the place where the West first truly encountered the East. Founded in the 1690s by East India Company merchants beside the Hugli River, Calcutta grew into India's capital during the Raj and the second city of the British Empire. Named the City of Palaces for its neoclassical mansions, Calcutta was the city of Clive, Hastings, Macaulay and Curzon. It was also home to extraordinary Bengalis such as Rabindranath Tagore, the first Asian Nobel laureate, and Satyajit Ray, among the geniuses of world cinema. Above all, Calcutta (renamed Kolkata in 2001) is a city of extremes, where exquisite refinement rubs shoulders with coarse commercialism and political violence. Krishna Dutta explores these multiple paradoxes, giving personal insight into Calcutta's unique history and modern identity as reflected in its architecture, literature, cinema and music. CITY OF ARTISTS: Modern India's cultural capital; home city of

Download or read book Representing Yourself in Federal Court written by United States Disctrict Court and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook is designed to help people dealing with civil lawsuits in federal court without legal representation. Proceeding without a lawyer is called proceeding "pro se1," a Latin phrase meaning "for oneself," or sometimes "in propria persona," meaning "in his or her own person." Representing yourself in a lawsuit can be complicated, time consuming, and costly. Failing to follow court procedures can mean losing your case. For these reasons, you are urged to work with a lawyer if possible. Chapter 2 gives suggestions on finding a lawyer. Do not rely entirely on this Handbook. This Handbook provides a summary of civil lawsuit procedures, but it may not cover all procedures that may apply in your case. It also does not teach you about the laws that will control your case. Make sure you read the applicable federal and local court rules and do your own research at a law library or online to understand your case. The United States District Court for the Northern District of California has Clerk's Offices in the San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland courthouses. Clerk's Office staff can answer general questions, but they cannot give you any legal advice. For example, they cannot help you decide what to do in your lawsuit, tell you what the law means, or even advise you when documents are due. There are Legal Help Centers in the San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose courthouses where you can get free help with your lawsuit from an attorney who can help you prepare documents and give limited legal advice. This attorney will not be your lawyer and you will still be representing yourself. See Chapter 2 for more details.
