Need to subpoena Facebook or Gmail? If you do, then you’ll need to know where to serve the subpoena. For example, how would you know that Facebook has an email just for subpoenas (subpoena@facebook.com)? Do you know the office in Palo Alto and telephone and fax number for the Facebook department that accepts service?
You’ve gotta check out this site. It is meant for law enforcement but open to the public.

Luckily, I’ve never been a smoker. So, I’ve not had to take any medication to help stop the cravings.
I just read about Chantix and its terrible side effects. According to the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2007 complaints regarding Chantix were more numerous than any other drug. It is related to about 988 serious injuries.
Chantix is a drug marketed by Pfizer to help stop the addictive cravings of smoking. It has some minor side effects and some very serious side effects. If you have suffered some serious side effects please contact me.
Some of the serious side effects of Chantix include:

If you were administered Heparin between November 2007 and February 2008, suffered a severe allergic reaction and live in Wisconsin it is important that you figure out your legal rights.
Some of the severe reactions to Heparin are difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, excessive sweating and rapidly falling blood pressure.
It 2008 the FDA admitted that they violated their own policies regarding inspecting the production plant when they allowed the imported raw heparin from China.
If you suffered a severe allergic reaction to Heparin contact me here.

If you don’t read Anne Reed’s blog then you’ve been missing out on a ton of great tips and news related to jury trials. It’s on my IGoogle page and I anxiously await every post.
Anne’s latest post is about a personal injury trial from California. In short, you can argue with emotion, logic or both but many times the facts themselves are the most powerful.
Anne will be speaking at this year’s Wisconsin Solo and Small Firm Conference. Don’t forget to register asap.

It’s a common question lately. When do the new laws go into effect?
Some go into effect next year.
The Journal Sentinel wrote a story about this a while ago.
Motorists will need to have a policy providing at least $50,000 in bodily injury coverage for one person, $100,000 in bodily injury coverage per accident and $15,000 to cover property damage. The current limits are $25,000, $50,000 and $10,000, respectively. The higher limits go into effect Jan. 1.
Your new policy or renewed policy must include underinsured motorist coverage starting November 1, 2009.
Underinsured motorist coverage, which now is optional, will be required for state drivers on new or renewed policies starting Nov. 1.
Auto insurance will be required starting June 1, 2010.
I hope this answers some of those questions.
Federal Court PACER Fees September 15, 2009

For those who have handled cases in Federal Court you know that PACER costs $. Maybe, rightfully so, because you can obtain records in pdf for most any case. In Wisconsin state court, CCAP (Wisconsin Circuit Court Access Program) is free but without the ability to obtain actual records. You’ll need to call the attorneys or driver to the courthouse to get the records.
Well, Firefox has a new extension called RECAP that attempts to take the $ from the Federal Courts. I read about RECAP on Avvo.com’s blog.
I haven’t tried it. If you do, please let me know your thoughts.

A University of Wisconsin student was hit by a driver. The driver fled the scene. Taking no responsibility.
Please, if you know any information about this collision contact the Milwaukee Police. Today’s TMJ 4 ran the story.
Here’s a synopsis of what happened:
Barger was stopped in the southbound lane of Fratney. A red SUV traveling eastbound on Burleigh made a sharp turn onto Fratney and ran Barger over. She was thrown off her bike, which was dragged under the SUV for a block. Barger was rushed to the hospital.
Barger’s injuries are extensive. She has stitches on her face and hands. Severe bruising and scraping all over her body. A chipped tooth. And serious road rash from being dragged by the fleeing SUV.
If you know any more information please call 414-935-7396.
