It is a tithe because it is a percentage of income that goes to the church. But it’s implemented through a tax collected by the government and withheld from paychecks. It would be unconstitutional in the U.S., but it’s a thing in Germany an

Those patents are directed towards "method[s] for processing requests for vehicular data", which at first glance appear unrelated to the descriptions of web APIs authenticated by OAuth that Smartcar is complaining about.

That is not really a problem because there is usually a lot of flexibility given to the judge in sentencing. The judge can determine an appropriate sentence within the maximums (and sometimes minimums) set by the law.

I’ll add that deterrence breaks down into two different prongs: (1) deterring this particular guy from doing the same thing again and (2) deterring others from copying what this guy did. It might seem unfair to punish this guy harshly when

Whether a particular theft is covered would depend on the specific language of your insurance contract. For example, a theft might be covered where leaving the keys in the door was a rare lapse in otherwise good security (reasonable), but n

You’re not offering the same thing to the publisher and the celebrity. To the publisher, you’re offering your version of certain currently unknown events that they may be interested in publishing. You’ll need to disclose the basic facts fir

What you describe isn’t blackmail. Blackmail is offering the celebrity the chance to keep you from offering the story to the others, in exchange for a fee. If you actually had a setup as you described, all of the news outlets would publish

The license is irrelevant. Apple doesn't need a license because it owns the patent. Also, the license that Apple grants to others to use its invention doesn't take away any of its own rights to the patented invention.

Bird clearly maintains the right to control the device because it unlocks the scooter to be used by customers and causes a light to blink so it can be found by "chargers" at the end of the day. Regarding statutory violations, firs

Msbarnett is correct. In interpreting a contract a judge will seek to determine the intent of the parties, given all of the information available. Even if the contract language is unambiguous, a court will refuse to enforce it under certain

The linked article says nothing about the rifle in question being a bolt-action, Remington or other make, and nothing about how the rifle or ammunition was stored. Do you have some other source for your information or are you speculating?

You seem concerned about two issues: fair use and copyright term. Fair use is complicated and open to a lot of disagreement. Copyright term is more straightforward. I'll consider both in light of your examples. Fair use is complicated

Why do you think that the Air is discontinued? They're still up for sale on Apple's site. The most recent updates were apparently in 2017.
