Uncertainty Over Marital Home as Asset During Tough Economic Times

Legislation Targeting DUI Checkpoints

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 ...
