Question by constantine7337: Can a federal Complaint in a pro se civil lawsuit state conclusions based on the evidence, or only evidence?

I’m filing a civil lawsuit pro se. The Defendant’s attorney said some allegations based on conclusions were misplead. Can I make conclusions based on the evidence, such as, “Person X provided Plaintiff with a fabricated wheel bearing part that didn’t belong to Plaintiff’s car after it was serviced for repairs. Therefore, person X fraudulently concealed facts about Plaintiff’s car”? Please respond.

Best answer:

Answer by Randy F
your statement of facts does not prove fraud. you need to show that person X willfully and knowingly installed the wrong bearings on the car
to have a case for fraud. as of now I only see a suit for the damages and repairs and possibly some lost wages. good luck

The Harris Law Firm is happy to announce that Colorado Family Lawyer Rich Harris has been named a Colorado Super Lawyer for 2008!

Denver, CO (PRWEB) May 30, 2008 — Attorney Richard Harris, founding partner of The Harris Law Firm, has been named a Colorado Super Lawyer for a third consecutive year for Colorado family law. Colorado Super Lawyers are considered leading attorneys in the area of law in which they practice, and are selected by a survey of the state’s top lawyers by Law & Politics Magazine.

Rich Harris of the Harris Law Firm

The objective of the Super Lawyers selection process is to create a credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys that can be used as a resource to assist attorneys and sophisticated consumers in the search for legal counsel. No other legal publisher goes through the unique multi-step process that Super Lawyer employs to find evidence of peer recognition and professional achievement.

In December 2006, Key Professional Media, Inc. hired Global Strategy Group (GSG); one of the nation’s leading market research and consulting firms, to provide an independent assessment of the Super Lawyers selection process. The GSG report concluded that the process is scientific and objective. It stated: “The broad range of sources used to obtain a large and representative nominee pool, the comprehensive data search on each candidate, the protocols used to evaluate nominees, the expert panel system, and the meticulous checks and balances built into the process leave little to chance or idiosyncratic influence.”

In addition to being Denver divorce lawyers and child custody attorneys in Colorado, The Harris Law Firm also handles mediation, marital agreements, and issues regarding maintenance, paternity, grandparents’ rights, and step-parent adoptions.

(PRWEB) June 23, 2004

As many as 1.6 million current and former female employees of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. may be represented by the class action lawsuit that was certified by a federal judge for sex discrimination. The largest private civil rights case in U.S. history, the suit alleges Wal-Mart created a system that pays its female workers less than males in comparable jobs, as well as passing women for key promotions on a frequent basis.

The U.S. District Judge Martin Jenkins took nine months before deciding if the class action lawsuit should be expanded to include all women who work or have worked at Wal-Mart’s 3,500 stores nationwide since 1998. Three years prior, when the lawsuit was first filed, Wal-Mart tried to limit the parameters of the ruling. In September, Wal-Mart company attorneys claimed Wal-Mart stores operate with so much autonomy that mini-class action lawsuits targeting each outlet would be more appropriate.

Jenkins’ ruling was based on the 1964 congressional act passed during the civil rights movement that prohibits sex discrimination. The Judge also believed the plaintiffs presented sufficient anecdotal evidence warranting a class-action trial. The ruling could allow for the lawyers representing the women included in the class action lawsuit to pursue punitive damages, back pay, and other compensation.    

So far, the Wal-Mart case has already generated 1.25 million pages of evidence and 200 sworn depositions. Wal-Mart plans on appealing the ruling, and no trial date has been set. Wal-Mart is the nation’s largest private employer.

Question by Cindy B: Why are there so many attorneys answering questions on this during the day?

I have noticed that some of the questions are answered by people who add something like “24 years attorney” or “Texas attorney”, or they have some disclaimer, like “general discussion, not to be subsitutied for legal advice.”
I should add, I am one too.
