Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Quislet's Super Law Firm...of Space!

Because...

It's a brand new album for 1990 - They Might Be Giants' brand new album Flood

Rogues can get all the rouge they want. (As soon as we amend the Legion Constitution to allow it)

to think sentients call me strange.

Hi Quislet!!

You're not serious about the rouge thing, are you? Do you remember Roxxas? Eep! Blush abuse is no laughing matter!!

How could someone not be serious about rouge?

Just reminding people that the Super Law Office of Space is still open

I can't remember this being asked...

Is it true that you can "beat" a photo enforced ticket by claiming that you want to question your accuser (the camera)?

So Quis, what magazines do you have in the actual (as opposed to this virtual version) Super Law Firm Waiting Room...of Space?

I don't think so. The argument to counter that is that just as you can't question a camera, a camera can't accuse you. Besdies, there is someone who must authenticate the photo. That is who you can question.

Seeing as there is no actual Super Law Firm of Space (I don't have the capital to set up one) there are no magazines.

That will not do.

Say, Quis, what advice would you give to aspiring Space-Lawyers?

Well that depends on where they are in their quest to become Space-Lawyers.


To those who are just think about it, I would ask them to tell me why they are thinking about becoming a Space-Lawyer.

To those wanting to take the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test) I would tell them to study logic and reasoning. What helped me was doing the Logic Problems in crossword books. The LSAT doesn't test you about the law, but on your reading comprehension, analytical ability, and logical reasoning. There is also a writing sample where you have to pick a position and "argue" your position. In my writing sample it was a choice between holding a downtown sidewalk sale or a charity auction in order to drum up business for the Downtown Business Association.

For those wannabee Space-Lawyers starting Law School, I would say, first get into a study group. Learning the law can be very isolating. Next, work in some clinic in the field of law that you are interested in. The practical experience is very helpful and can teach you more than some of your classes. (but also find out as much as you can about the clinic first. and if the first clinic doesn't work for you, find another one)

What about the Space part?

What about aspiring Space-Lawyers who were kicked out of space law school? Any advice on alternative career paths?

For the Space part - Don't throw up on your instructor when training in zero G

Well you could become a mediator.

Or you might want to get into farming.

There is also the career path of being frmaed for a crime you didn't commit, wandering the country searching for the true killer, and involving yourself in the lives of strangers each week, solving their problems while getting no closer to solving your own. Or you could become an angel and do the same thing.

Like On-Topic Angel?

When I was reading FC's last post in the Today's Active Topics list I coulda sworn it said "Any advice on alternative career pants?"

Maybe Quis and Lash could confer on that.

Alternative carrer pants - Is that like leather hot pants?

No, it's NO pants!

But if you have no pants, how can I get into them?

Wow! I hadn't even thought of what the well dressed aspiring space-lawyer should wear! Any fashion tips, Quis?

I have to admit I am a *choke* Fashionally challenged gay man! *sob*

I defer to the Mighty Quinn M. for fashion advice.

I am reminded though of a Bizarro comic in which a Roman teacher is instructing some young boys "No matter what, the simple white toga will always be the acceptable business attire."

If there are "White Shoe" law firms for regular law, what is there for space law? White transuit firms?

If a Legionnaire signs a contract using her or his "code name" rather than her or his legal name, does that make any difference?
