Sex Discrimination Cases: Examining The Hostile Work Environment

Richard A. Cooper  SexDiscriminationCases.com

Sex discrimination complaints arising from a hostile work environment often lead to a contentious battle for credibility between the complainant and the defendant when such matters come before a court or human rights tribunal. 

In those harassment cases where it is alleged that a person in a position of authority has created a hostile workplace for an employee, and where the contending parties are of different genders, it is not always easy to parse the differences between general psychological bullying and bona fide gender discrimination stemming from sexually harassing conduct. 

Probating Wills - Avoiding Probate Tax With Property In Separate Wills

Richard A. Cooper  ProbatingWills.com

Once upon a time in Ontario, what we now know as estate administration taxes were once discreetly termed as probate "fees."   A fee, in regular parlance, is oft understood to be a payment in return for services rendered.  When your lawyer charges you a solicitor's fee, you expect the amount of the fee to somewhat correlate with the scope of the services on offer. 

Yet back in 1998, an argument was presented before the Court that the regular probate fees paid to the government, upon the probating of a will, did not at all resemble a "fee" as we normally understood it.  The argument was raised that these "fees" were actually covert taxes, and as such, were constitutionally invalid.

But don't sweat it. You need not be a Shakespeare or an English major to tell your why's from your wherefores. Armed with the right sample contract, a pinch of common sense, and the following general checklist, we present the Idiot's Guide to Contract Drafting.

Step-Parents and Child Support Payments

When you've been acting as the step-father to your wife's child, a clean break from the wife does not necessarily mean a clean break from her children. Though the child may no longer require your emotional support, the courts may very well require your financial support.>>>

Sex Offenders on Parole: The Case of the Non-Offending Sex Addict

In theory, our criminal justice system is supposed to provide for an effective balancing of two competing interests - those of the offender and those of the public. But what of the sex offender who no longer offends while out on parole, yet just can't seem to get his sexual addictions under control?>>>
