Civil Court Choices
There are 15 New York City Civil Court seats up for election in November. Yet only five are being contested in next week's Democratic primary -- which means that many of the others will owe their jobs to party bosses who largely control who gets on the ballot. Unlike some elections in the past, this year's group of primary candidates is low on hacks. But that does not justify a judge-picking system that markets candidates for the bench as though they were aldermen. New York badly needs a system of merit selection run by accredited professional panels. Meanwhile, these are
Iraqi Petition Condemns Interim Law
Followers of Iraq's most revered cleric are circulating a petition condemning the country's interim constitution -- the blueprint for the fast-approaching handoff of power to an Iraqi government. The petition, which is giving many Iraqis their first news of the interim constitution, is worded to play to many Iraqis' deepest fears. It describes the law as "a tragedy" that paves the way for the United States to dominate Iraq's future, encourages immoral behavior, and opens the door for Jews to take power. The petition is being passed around Baghdad neighborhoods and colleges by men who say they will deliver the signatures
Judges and magistrates
Judges, magistrates and other judicial workers apply the law and oversee the legal process in courts according to local, state and federal statutes. They preside over cases concerning every aspect of society, from traffic offenses to the rights of huge corporations. All judicial workers must ensure that trials and hearings are conducted fairly. The most visible responsibility of judges is presiding over trials or hearings and listening as attorneys represent the parties present. They rule on the admissibility of evidence and the methods of conducting testimony, and they may be called upon to settle disputes between opposing attorneys. Judges ensure that
Clinton Wants to Strengthen U.S. Whistle-Blower Shield
After finding that workers who complain of health and safety hazards are often dismissed from their jobs, the Clinton Administration will soon propose sweeping new protections for such whistle-blowers, Federal officials say. The law that created the Occupational Safety and Health Administration prohibits employers from retaliating against people who report unsafe or unhealthy working conditions. But the inspector general of the Labor Department, Charles C. Masten, said such reprisals often occurred, and Charles N. Jeffress, the Assistant Secretary of Labor in charge of OSHA, said the Clinton Administration would soon recommend changes in the law to increase the protection of

Transcript: President’s Weekly Radio Address
Good morning. This week terrorists launched a series of attacks in Iraq, targeting religious sites in Baghdad and Karbala, during commemorations marking the Shia holy day of Ashoura. Laura and I and the American people were filled with grief and anger at these terrible acts of murder, which took the lives of dozens of innocent Iraqis. Some of these killers behind these attacks are supporters of Saddam's former regime. Others are foreign terrorists. All of them are determined to halt and reverse all progress toward freedom in Iraq. One of the terrorist leaders, a killer named Zarqawi, recently wrote to a
Fannie Mae Ex-Officers Sued by U.S.
Fannie Mae’s main regulator sued the company’s former chairman and chief executive, Franklin D. Raines, and two top financial officers yesterday in an effort to extract more than $215 million in bonus payouts and fines over their involvement in a huge-scale accounting scandal. The regulator, the Office of Federal Housing and Enterprise Oversight, is seeking about $100 million in penalties. But its effort to recoup more than $115 million in bonus payments is notable for its rarity and size. Even in the aftermath of the Enron scandal, only a handful of company boards have aggressively tried to claw back executive bonuses or
Florida’s Non-disclosure Law Under Friendly Fire
In Florida, real estate organizations are coming to legal blows over the interpretation of the state's new "non-disclosure" law. Are licensees and consumers caught in the middle? In the most unfriendly blow to consumer-friendly representation yet on record, the Florida legislature passed a new law which the Florida Association of REALTORS® had initiated in an attempt to completely eliminate agency disclosure. Recognizing the regressive ramifications and adverse affects on both licensees and consumers, the Department of Business and Professional Regulation introduced amendments which postponed disclosure requirements from the time of first contact to the time of listing or showing properties.
