OK, as long as you're not on the wrong side of the court room... The world already has plenty of criminal attorneys! HAHA

And the threat of litigation at the drop of a hat has ruined a lot of things in this country.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I'm still floored by the fact that if someone trespasses on your property, regardless of what you do to keep people off, and that person ends up drowning in your pond you are still liable according to the one and only law class I took in college.

I have relatives in Germany that find this unbelievable too. They say the way the law is written there, as soon as you break the law (as in trespassing) any chance of getting damages from the pond owner in court go out the window.

Cecil, that may be what I learned can be called The Attractive Nuisance Law.

The instance I remember regarded a child on a swing set. If that child can swing high enough to see the swimming pool over your privacy fence, you can be liable if the child trespasses and drowns in your pool.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
