I feel the need to comment on the potential actors’ strike today. Not so much that I want to discuss and dissect the actual deal points as that is not what I find odd about what is going on. First of all, I definitely thought that after the writers’ strike that there would be NO [...]
I felt the need to address this subject as it seems to be coming up lately. I keep meeting criminal defense attorneys. I am not sure why but it seems to keep happening. I always remember this time in law school when we were studying a case about the “felony murder rule”. Now, the felony [...]
