Uncertainty Over Marital Home as Asset During Tough Economic Times
The Great Recession and the housing crisis may have rewritten the rules on whether the marital home should be viewed as an asset -- at least temporarily.

New Social Security Disability Rules: One Claim at a Time

Under Social Security Ruling 11-1p, people seeking disability will no longer be allowed to have two claims for the same type of benefit pending at the same time. A new claim under a different type of benefit ...

Legislation Targeting DUI Checkpoints
If you have ever been stopped at a DUI checkpoint, you may be left wondering just how effective they are at catching actual drunk drivers. You may also have contemplated whether these checkpoints are designed more to increase revenue from impoundment fees rather than find actual drunk drivers. If you have had these thoughts, you are not alone.
Democratic state Assemblyman Michael Allen of Santa Rosa has proposed legislation that would require checkpoints to be only on those roads with high rates of drunk driving arrests. The proposed ...

North Carolina Bike Laws

Ways to Avoid the Time and Expense of a California Probate Proceeding
Most people know that if they obtain a will their assets will be distributed according to their final wishes.
But the process of asking a court to actually make the distribution -- called probate -- can be lengthy and expensive. It's also a public proceeding in most states, so privacy concerns do exist for many. Probate starts when the executor of the estate, who is named in the will, files a petition to the Superior Court (in California) to be officially named by the court. Along with the petition ...
