Lawyers go after Comelec, Smartmatic | DateLine Philippines

In other words there is already damage to the electoral process and for this damage somebody has to assume the responsibility and Lente will take probably the lead role… in ensuring that those who are liable will be made to answer after the elections,” Libarios said.

paralegal by day rockstar by night

I worked as a men's clothing designer at a company called Scope Imports from Jan 1990 to Oct of 1993.

Thrown out of court | Macleans.ca - Canada - Features

There's another concern paralegals share: cost. "It's going to become a lot more expensive to practise," says Wanda Forsythe, chair of the school of legal and public administration at Toronto's Seneca College. And those costs will be passed down to the public. Thanks to a new education requirement, people wanting to take up the profession will now have to pay college tuition for a two- to four-year program; after that there are insurance costs, and a $500 application fee to the law society. Experienced paralegals could skip the education requirement if they paid $1,075 and wrote an exam. (Of [more...]
