⚖️ Do you need a great lawyer? I can help! legaleagle.link/eagleteam ⚖️
IF THE PRENUP IS VOID, ISN’T THE WHOLE MARRIAGE VOID? This is part 2 of my reaction to Liar Liar. Here, I cover the entire second half of the film including the entire divorce trial. Jim Carrey (as attorney Fletcher Reede) is struck by a magic spell and can’t lie. But is he a good lawyer? Today we’re going to review one of the funniest legal movies of all time: Liar Liar. Stay until the end for my Legal Realism Grade!

▶ Why Indochino Suits? (50% off Premium Suits + free shipping) [legaleagle.link/indochino]: Off-the-rack suits NEVER fit right. Indochino makes fully custom suits that fit perfectly using any material I want, with all of the options I want. And they cost 1/3rd of what normal suits costs. I’ve purchased them with my own money for years, so I’m thrilled they are now a sponsor.
▶ Why Ties from TheTieBar? (Free shipping on orders over $50) [fave.co/2ImLY9I]: Normal ties are too fat. Skinny ties are too skinny. So these days I only wear ties that are exactly 2.5” wide. They are fashionable without being hipster. You see them in all of my videos. TieBar ties are perfect, come in every color I want, and never cost more than $19.
▶ Why these Tie Clips? [amzn.to/2WIQ6EE]: It’s really hard to find affordable tie clips that are the right size (1.5”), look good, and are great quality. These tie bars are all three. Plus the 3-pack gives a variety of styles. They pair perfectly with 2.5” ties from TheTieBar (above).
▶ Why these Pocket Squares? [amzn.to/2UfsKtL]: I like my pocket squares perfectly, well, square. Like straight-out-of-Mad-Men square. The only way to do that is with a stiffer material that keeps its shape. I’ve exhaustively tried dozens of pocket squares, and these are by far the best. It’s how I get the perfectly flat pocket square you see in my videos.
--------------------------------------------------
The last time I watched Liar Liar, I wasn’t yet an attorney myself. I remember watching Liar Liar years and thinking how cool it would be to become a lawyer myself. That was obviously a long time ago. It was great to be able to watch the movie with fresh eyes and know which parts were realistic and which were not. I practiced in Los Angeles for a long time, so I recognized a lot of my old haunts including the office parks and courthouses. Surprisingly, I think the movie is funnier now having years of experience as an attorney.

I get asked a lot about whether being a practicing attorney is like being a lawyer on TV. I love watching legal movies and courtroom dramas. It's one of the reasons I decided to become a lawyer. But sometimes they make me want to pull my hair out because they are ridiculous. Today I'm taking a break from teaching law students how to crush law school to take on lawyers in the movies and on TV. While all legal movies and shows take dramatic license to make things more interesting (nobody wants to see hundreds of hours of brief writing), many of them have a grain of truth.

Not so much an objection as much as a hypothetical. If a couple were to divorce and be required to split a house as it is over half their combined assets' worth, could they sell it to their young child for a token amount, accept the offer as guardians, and then take turns residing in their child's home as guardians and executors (rather than sharing custody by moving the child from one home to another) thus avoiding inheritance taxes?

the rules of fletcher's curse: 1: he may not lie. 2: he may not twist the truth on any way including something as basic a reframing an idea from a different angle. 3: he does not have the option to remain silent. if there is a fact, or angle of a fact, that he knows he must present it loudly. this is what i picked up watching the movie myself a few years ago. the curse is not as simple as "don't speak/write direct falsehoods" like most people think it is.

That's why I've long had immense respect for my parents. They separated when me and my two sisters were all under 5. I won't go into what caused it, but the fallout could have devastated us all. My parents kept their problems from us, and both made sure we were always loved, and spent equal amounts of time with each parent each week. They vowed that, whatever differences they had, it just would not be fair to weaponise their children against each other. For them, but obviously more so for us. I didn't even find out why they separated until i was like 15. Unfortunately, nowhere near enough people get as immensely lucky as my sisters and me. (I don't mean financially btw, we've always been dirt poor)

I honestly don't like the 2 party consent law. We have that in PA as well. There was a guy who's kid was being bullied and he wanted to prove they weren't doing anything to stop the bullying from happening and he recorded a private meeting with some of school staff and they admitted to not doing anything, or something along those lines and he goes, "Got it" and reveals he was recording. They then went on to press charges on this guy for illegal wiretapping. He just wanted to protect his kid and how he's faced with jail time. I also saw where a teen was using his school issued tablet to record people bullying him and he is facing wiretapping charges as well. Sure you don't want people to record you in private places, and there should obviously be laws against peeping, spying, etc. But if you're taping someone who's doing wrong to you or someone else, or threatening you, or someone else...You should be protected
@haoye2413
@haoye2413 Жыл бұрын
I also believe everyone should have the right to record all conversation and use them as evidence. At the same time, I do understand the 2 party consent law is trying to protect people from answering leading question. Such as if you try to provo someone and anger them enough, the other party might say something like "I am going to kill you". Calibrated leading questions are used very often, especially in negotiation, sales and marketing. It is hard for non train personal to notice if they are falling in the trap of calibrated questions. On the other hand, it is also hard for the court to determine the premise of the questions.

Overruled. The IRS doesn't keep track of birthdays, the Social Security Administration does and shares the information with the IRS. As long as her stated birthday matches what the SSA has on record, no issue will be flagged. Assuming that she doesn't work, then there is a good chance that her date of birth never comes up currently when filing taxes, given that she is not close to being a minor anymore nor close to claiming social security benefits. The biggest reason for the birthday being noticed is if taxes are filed online, as the birthday is used by some companies to help validate identity. However, given the amounts in question, I doubt that the Coles file online instead of having a professional tax preparer.

I second this motion, but also like to put forward evidence based upon what we know about the legal system. The second book by Harper Lee “go set a watchmen,“ [which would have been her first book, if her publishers did not love the look at scouts childhood so much more than the rest of the story] while disappointing to many fans of “to kill a Mockingbird,“ does not actually burst as many bubbles as you would think. A lawyer is supposed to work for his client and is paid for it, Regardless of what he personally thinks about this client. This means that, as painful as it might be to hear, Atticus finch could defend a black man from rape accusations [completely false] in spite of being racist. Not to mention that Atticus knows that his client is innocent. His personal feelings about race don’t factor into it. So, Atticus could still be a bigoted old man even though the events of to kill a mockingbird did happen.

For example, if someone is threatening me or extorting me, why should they be afforded legal protection from me recording their illegal threats to facilitate a rightful criminal prosecution for those illegal threats? I understand 3rd party consent. Or whatever the principle would be labelled to protect against arbitrary surveillance from someone not party to a conversation. But if someone talks to me, I should be able to record it if I choose to prove any future claims I make about what was said TO ME and by whom. Can someone explain why that should not be the case?

Yeah, I got that as the message from the film as well. I think he’s just commenting more about those moments in particular and how he “could’ve” lied through omission, but the message of the movie was not allowing that. It’s just the way the artists went with it. I do wonder though, how much truth and to whom and when does he have to speak it? Because he was able to kinda truthfully weasel his way out of a couple things, he also didn’t always blah about everything he’s done wrong (like the cop/parking tix scene). So, I think not having a consistent amount of lying or truth telling and having it come on bursts to different people at many different times is why I think he really still felt like he could’ve lied through omission.

Rory Smith the movie established that he couldn’t even lie to himself, by himself in a room with no one else in it, see the pen scene. It also established that he couldn’t lie through omission, doing so caused him to sputter out the truth, see scenes with Greta. The cop’s question when he pulled him over was “do you know why I stopped you” and Fletcher responded with “depends on how long you’ve been following me”. The cop then states: “Let’s take it from the top, shall we?” Fletcher then lists off every crime he committed while speeding. His blabbering about his tickets stems from the further question: “Anything else?” So by omission, he cannot lie either. All of this ties together with Max’s birthday wish of no lying. This wasn’t a black and white wish, it was vague and as such, it applied vaguely and covered any form of lying. “I wish my dad couldn’t lie for one whole day.” And as I’ve pointed out, it is a wide covering thing.

@@notmakingcontent I think the magic makes it impossible for him to say things that could be considered as avoiding the truth if the truth is not defined by factual accuracy, but rather by moral standards (based on the morals of his own superego, presumably). Under this definition, he cannot really weasel his way out of things, and a good example is the cop, where for example, responding with "no" to the question if he knows why he has been pulled over would be truthful, as he doesn't know it because he doesn't know how long he has been followed, but it wouldn't be moral because he may have broken more laws than the cop has seen. However, he can create circumstances under which he doesn't have to weasel his way out of things, such as beating himself up. _This means that the notion of moral truth only affects what he says, not his actions._ That also explains why he explains the laws he broke to the cop, but is still able to break them in the first place, even though he knows that is immoral (proven by the fact that he deems it necessary to disclose the crimes because of the curse). Of course, this also makes it interesting to take note on what Fletcher now considers immoral, because it basically includes everything he would do to make a case for his client, which somewhat makes sense as the "most moral thing" is to be impartial, and a lawyer is, by design of their position in court, virtually never impartial. This means that Fletcher, on some level, values absolute morals over the specific morals connected to the position as a lawyer, where you are only a part of a process that tries to be impartial in its entirety, not in every participant. This could serve to show that Fletcher was never well suited for this profession in the first place, as all of his actions that made him a good lawyer were, while justified in his own mind, still going against his moral compass.

There are some things I wished you had covered: -The scene where FLETCHER insults every member of the firm and they all laugh. Even if they find him funny, would they still want and/or be allowed to make him partner after saying things like "slut"? -Why wasn't FLETCHER's 2nd question to the lover "And how do you know my client?" and go from there? -When FLETCHER has a change of heart, he tells the judge "I think there's been a mistake" and he replies "Please, it's been a long day and I'm tired." Regardless of the working hours, wouldn't a judge be obliged to double-check if there's something that could affect his verdict? -FLETCHER constantly raises his voice (usually at the judge), exageratedly spits water all over the table, makes jokes about MRS. COLE's hair color and bra size and calls DANA a hag when she objects... and he's not held in contempt until *after* the trial?

Fletcher can't ask the man that question because they had worked out lies to the questions and the curse permitted him from engaging in that kind of deception. He explains that to the two of them in a scene outside the courthouse. The judge isn't obligated to stay, he'd already ruled and Fletcher was making a moral claim not a legal one. I'm no lawyer but I've spent too much time in courtrooms, and I'll also say that if it's time court to end, everybody is ready to gtfo of there. Sitting in court until 5 pm is mind numbing for everyone.

It's often not. In my jurisdiction (family matters are federal matters in my country), the Court has to exclude illegally obtained evidence unless the desirability of admitting the evidence outweighs the undesirability of admitting illegally obtained evidence - citation: Evidence Act 1995 (Cth) s 138. That statute contains matters the Court must consider in making its decision.
