Is it legal to purchase over the phone a prescription from a outta state pharmacy and have them mail it to you
Answer:
So long as they have the original prescription, it's fine. I live in Illinois but my meds are mailed to me from Texas.
Not out of state. Its fine.
I have no idea but that would be so AWESOME if it was. Im a busy man and I dont often have time to deal with all that crap in person.
Is it legal to publish a tenants name that has been evicted on a website?
Im wondering if it is illegal to publish the name of a tenant someone has had in the past that have been evicted, or have had small claims judgements against them for property destruction too a rental, on a website
Answer:
Small claims judgements are public records; they could be published on a county website, so it would be legal.
yes. public record.
yes, that is free knowledge---you can find all this stuff by going to the county's court dats base online
I would think it depends on the reason for publishing it. The tenant etc, could have a claim for harassment if there is no good reason or a long time has passed since the judgment. Once fines have been paid or other restitution made, there would be no reason for it to be brought up again.

Is it legal to post an entire city's police departments salary, OT and total earnings...?
itemized by full name titlesalary, ot rate, total earnigs for the year?
One city did just that on the internet. My question is this a violation of any law.
This list includes (my name) every police officer, searnet, leutenant, community service worker, dispatcher, crime lab tech etc. I am shocked and appaled
Answer:
Sorry to say that I don't think any laws were violated. The city has the right to show how they spend the people's money and under what department it was spend. As long as your private information wasn't include, such as phone # , address, and such. It just isn't normal practice for this to happen. It does sound like it was politically motivated. Someone is either negotiating a contract or fighting the union or something like that. Again, this isn't normal but I don't see anything illegal. Keep looking through. They are bound to have slipped up somewhere.
i dont see how it is a violation of the law since they are public employees, therefore it is usually considered public info. no different than a state employee's salary is public info...teachers, politicians, etc.
I'm neither...cities do a lot of strange things these days. If people can find out how much you owe on your house, I guess no one really cares how much you make either..
Good question.
My first thought was yes it is illegal because it would be an invasion of privacy.
However; on second thought because you work for the government I am thinking this qualifies as public information.
I would be upset as well.
why would it be a violation?
if public/tax money is being used to pay you, that information would be available to the public.
We know what our congress members make; why not our police?
Its public knowledge how much firefighters make; why not our police?
You're an employee of the city and state; they can publish what you make publicly
and that information isn't really protected. companies can obtain what you make anyway
No. It is the tax payers money- and they have to right to know how it is being spent.
they print it in paper.once a year.here.they do what they want any more.
Having your names on it doesn't sound right, but the rest of it surely is kosher...position, title, duties and salaries. Putting your names sounds like a goof-up. They don't put any police names on ours except of course the head of the Depts. Can you sue? I don't think it would be very lucrative if you did...but for gp, probably.
Normally when you work for the city/state it is the right of the people to know how much they are paying you. I do not think it is fair. On the internet is another story i would think. Only because I would think it was not any ones business in the city or town near you. If someone wanted to know your salary they should have to go to the city office. Not post it on the internet. I am sure you are talking about a small town??
You are a public servant and we are entitled as tax payers to know what/where our tax dollars are going. Maybe you should work harder for your money instead of being appalled that you are paid that much and the public now knows.
Public information if you in fact work for a state or local government agency. Taxes collected from citizens in these cases are directly related to your salaries. Thus allowing that information to be public knowledge. However they cannot disclose any of your related common numerical identifiers(i.e social security number for example). That should also tell you something about Federal employees as well and why isn't their salary information or names found on this kind of listing. And by the way, this is quite prevalent in areas with high concentrations of union activity. It's not that uncommon.
i would think it is a matter of public record. ps take some of your money and either invest in a dictionary or use spell check

Is it legal to place flyers in peoples' mailboxes at their house?
These are regular mailboxes that you can open. There is no lock. Is it legal for someone like myself, who is not a mail man or anything to place a flyer in there for my local business? This is in California, by the way. Thanks Everyone!
Answer:
No. Generally it violates USPS regulations and Federal statutes which prohibit depositing anything but official US Mail in a mailbox.
However, despite all else, people often ignore that as does he post office.
But that's why you see a regular mailbox and then a newspaper depository box on some rural type mailboxes.
No, its not legal to put anything in a mailbox that does not have a stamp and went through the government mail system.
I think it sucks but thats the way it is.
it is illegal...

Is it legal to place advertising flyers in people mailboxes?
Answer:
It is illegal...
Solution:
you know what you can do? put a sticker on your mailbox and scare them with this quote or something like it:
"It is unlawful for any non USPS person to open the mailbox of any citizen, so please refrain from doing it because I will Report it to the authorities"
Actually it worked for me.... :)
Nope. Just US Mail
No.
No. It is illegal to place anything in a US mailbox except mail.
No, only USPS delivery persons are allowed to place items in a residential mailbox.
No, but you can place them in dog mailboxes all day long.
no its not but you could it between the doors of the house
NO, nothing but U.S. postal is allowed in the mail box, and it may carry a felloney offence
Not directly, no. It's against federal law (as in, it's a crime) for anyone but an employee of the USPS to mess around with someone else's mailbox. .
If you drop off a birthday card, nobody's going to bust you up about it. If you start putting fliers in peoples' mailboxes, and someone reports you (or if the mail carrier sees them), you just might get a call from the USPS's enforcement arm (badge- and gun-carrying federal agents with arrest powers).
If you must hand out fliers, leave them on doorsteps, not in mailboxes.
no it is illegal to place anything other than mail in a mailbox.What u have to do is fold Ur flayer and put it in between the flag and the box.
No. It's a federal offense to do so.
Is it legal to place a sign on a private gate which states. 24 HOUR ACCESS REQUIRED NO PARKING.?
Answer:
yes, and also if you were to park blocking the gate you could be stuck for 拢60 and 3 points or even have your car towed away by the police for causing an obstruction
yes
A No Parking sign is enough
certainly legal to put the notice up but doubt if you could enforce it if someone parked badly across your gate.
It's legal in Uk because parking across someone's drive or garage access is against the law. anyone can park on the street outside your house unless there are parking restrictions clearly posted but they cannot block your drive or garage (ie access).
only if its your property
If it is your gate, certainly. In any case only a jerk would park blocking a driveway.
It's legal to place the sign but if you do not have a cross-over to your drive, nobody has to pay any attention to it.
As Pema said, in uk it legal as you have the right to access to your property. Although there are certain rules, best to get to a solicitor to discuss this (check out the free half hour that they offer)
I certainly dont think anyone would be arrested for placing such a sign on their property.
It's not legal. Beyond the gate is Public property. It's quite common for property owners to put signs up, but its a matter of courtesy only.
I'm making two assumptions. One, that the gate is yours. The other, that the gate is a driveway gate. You can post what you want on YOUR gate. As long as it isn't obscene or inciting violence. Now if this IS a driveway, and it's your property, you can call the cops if somebody parks on YOUR property without permission, and the car will be towed, at the owner's expense, and they'll get a parking citation. Even if they park on the street, blocking your driveway, you can have them towed. That's how it's been all my life, everywhere I've been in America.
Is it legal to own an ak 47 in the state of delaware?
Answer:
If you mean a true AK47, that's an automatic weapon, and your first difficulty is with the Federal Government, where you will spend a good deal of money and time. At that, Delaware may well prohibit you from possessing it.
If you're talking about a self-loading rifle that looks like an AK47, I think you're on safe ground, if you're not otherwise prohibited from possessing firearms. Why not call your local police department just to make sure?
the civilian model the SKS is perfectly leagle %26 super cheap
