Some online notes about interesting current legal issues...
DWI in NH
Any person charged with DWI in NH needs to know that there are two separate proceedings that will affect that person. One is a proceeding in court. The other is a proceeding at the Department of Safety. Both can drastically affect the outcome of the case, and both can result in serious penalties.
Most importantly, anyone charged with DWI in NH should be very careful not to miss any of the various deadlines associated with either the court's or the department's proceedings. Missing any of these deadlines can have severe and, sometimes, irreversible consequences. Such consequences can be drastic, especially if the person has a previous DWI. But even if it is a DWI first offense, the loss of license, fines and other associated requirements and costs can dramatically alter a person's life and ability to earn a living.
If you have been charged with DWI in NH, you should hire an experienced DWI attorney as soon as possible. In addition to meeting deadlines, your attorney may be able to provide a defense or negotiate a plea that results in an acquittal or less detrimental penalties.

| Falling Ladders at Walmart and Other Retailers
Many people have been injured by falling ladders and falling merchandise at Walmart and other large retail stores. A falling ladder can, obviously, cause serious injuries. The question arises as to why such a problem could not be easily remedied. After all, there are many stores where such injuries never occur.
It is especially troubling that children are injured, sometimes seriously, by falling ladders and/or merchandise in these stores. It would seem that retailers such as Walmart would try very hard to make sure that such a thing never happens again, after it has happened once. But for some reason, the problem has not been solved.
At a minimum, customers would be well-advised to use caution when shopping in these large retail stores where the shelfs are very high. Children should be directed away from ladders in the aisles, and everyone should report falling ladders and merchandise, even if no one is injured.
