<p>One of the largest business law news stories has to do with the charges that have been made against the company, Intel, by the Federal Trade Commission.  Law news organizations felt the need to heavily report this story because it is not everyday that the Federal Trade Commission files its own charges against a company.  Law news sources know that there is always a possibility to get business law news stories such as this, but that never seemed to suppress the astonishment by the law news circle.  Nevertheless, every time the business law news stories does contain charges that have been made by the FTC, the law news sources are sure to report this breaking news.</p>
<p>1.  Business law news has reported that the charges by the Federal Trade Commission against Intel come by way of the accusation of monopoly.  The law news circuit says that Intel is being accused by the FTC of carrying out unfair methods to their fellow competitors.  The law news circuit reports that the FTC alleges that Intel, the company that specializes in the making of computer chips, has been partaking in this type of behavior for a period of ten years.  The business law news stories are stating that the FTC states that they specifically carried out this type of behavior in order to create this monopoly.</p>
<p>2.  The law news circuit is somewhat taken aback by such strong allegations.  Some of the law news sources state that the FTC must have had some pretty compelling evidence in order to make such allegations.  This business law news story comes just a short time after the computer chip maker, Intel, had been named in a major lawsuit just recently.  The law news circuit was not expecting the next set of reports to wind up with such strong allegations from the FTC.  The law news sources are well aware that there is more information that is bound to come out when such a large company is named in a major lawsuit, but there is always going to be that element of surprise for most.</p>
<p>3.  The lawsuit to which the business law news stories had recently reported on had named the company, Intel, in the submission of bribes.  The business law news stories had reported that the Attorney General of New York, Andrew Cuomo, had filed a lawsuit against Intel, alleging that the company had paid billions in dollars of bribes.  The business law news stories said that the Attorney General of New York alleges that Intel had paid these billions of dollars in bribes to hardware makers in order to maintain the monopoly in the market over their competitors.</p>

<p>As we take a further look into the court room news stories of the week, we discover that the most discussed court news story has to do with the latest court room news of the Guantanamo Bay case.  Many have been following this court room news story for quite some time now, so have been very anxious to see how the latest details of this court news case would play out.  There has been a great deal of accusations reported by the court news circuit concerning the conduct of the treatment at Guantanamo Bay, so many are waiting to see exactly how each piece of the puzzle will be played out.  In fact, there have been many reports by the court news circuits that directly relate to the alleged misconduct of the previous Administration&#8217;s treatment towards the prisoners.  The court news  circuit says that the details and the thorough investigations are still under way until this very day.  Nevertheless, there is a recent court news story of Guantanamo Bay that has the interest of many.</p>
<p>1.  If you recall, in the year of 2006, on June the 9th, there was a reporting that stated that three men in Guantanamo Bay had committed suicide in their cells at Guantanamo Bay.  One of the men was Salah Abdullah Ahmed Al-Salami, who was arrested in Pakistan in the year 2002.  The other man was twenty-two, and he is said to have been arrested in 2001 in Afghanistan, by the name of Yasser Al-Zahrani.</p>
<p>2.  The names of these men have made their way to the court room news circuit recently because the latest court news says that the two deceased men&#8217;s families had filed a lawsuit against the Guantanamo Bay facility.  The court news stories are reporting that the families say that the reason for their hanging suicides was as a result of poor treatment in Guantanamo Bay.  The court news stories say that the families of the two say that the  two men were subjected to torture, cruel punishment, and inhumane treatment.  The court room news circuit is reporting that the families are alleging that Guantanamo Bay had been in violation of the Geneva Conventions.</p>
<p>3.  The latest court room news story offers the court news recording of the judge&#8217;s response to the matter.  The court room news reportings are stating that the judge has dismissed the lawsuit.  The court room news circuit reports that the judge states that the Guantanamo Bay did not offer any treatment to the men that was below standard.  The court room news story says that this is a huge setback to the families, if there is, in fact, any truth to the strong claims that the court news circuit has reported on.</p>

<p>There have been a lot of law news stories that have made their way to the law news circuit this week, but there seems to be one  law news story that has many talking.  Many are interested when they find that the law news stories have to do with those that are in the entertainment business.  Many look to these law news stories because they seem to have a fascination with the way in which the legal system tends to deal with celebrities.  They are looking to these law news stories to measure the way in which the legal system handles the cases involving a celebrity versus the cases that involve someone more similar to their stature.  The law news stories  that involve celebrities continue to be a very popular area of interest.  For that reason, the law news stories that involve celebrities are often not a one shot deal.  These law news stories  are drawn out and reported upon by several law news sources.  This is because people seem to be waiting on the edge of their seats as these law news stories unfold.  They find themselves engaged in these law news stories as they find themselves reading on in order to find out what will happen next.</p>
<p>1.  One of the celebrity law news stories that has grabbed everybody&#8217;s interest most recently are the following details regarding the law news of the Tila Tequila, legal name Tila Nguyen, and Shawne Merriman.  Tila Tequila is the television star of the highly rated MTV show, &#8216;A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila.&#8217;  Shawne Merriman is a linebacker for the NFL team, the San Diego Chargers.  The early law news reports stated that Shawne Merriman had been arrested in September 6 of 2009, with the charges made by Tila Tequila that he had allegedly assaulted her.</p>
<p>2.  The law news circuit had soon reported that no charges would be filed by the Prosecutor&#8217;s Office.  In the meantime, the law news circuit had reported that Tila Tequila had filed her own lawsuit against Shawne Merriman, her former boyfriend, alleging that Merriman had choked her.  Merriman was said to have filed his own counter lawsuit in the matter.  Merrriman was said by the law news sources to counter claim that this legal issue had been in violation to him by way of international interference with a contract.  It is reported that Merriman had claimed that because of this matter, this had caused a deal in the negotiations that he was currently in with Wal-Mart Stores Inc. in regards to a T-shirt deal.</p>
<p>3.  The latest law news story involving Tequila and Merriman states that the two have resolved their case by way of a settlement.  Neither one of the parties or their attorneys have released a statement as to the settlement that was reached, but it has been confirmed by the counsel that a settlement has been reached.</p>

<p>The biggest story in state law news this week takes place in the state of New York.  Many were waiting anxiously to see what the state laws were going to decide in terms of the state law news story involving the former New York City Commissioner, Bernard Kerik.  The state law news story originally revealed that former New York City Commissioner, Bernard Kerik, was being charged with several charges for violation of the state laws and the federal laws.  Some of the charges that he has been charged with as a result of the violation of the federal and state laws are tax fraud, lying to the white house, unlawfully releasing pretrial information, and several other felonies.  The state law news sources says that Kerik has been charged for eight felonies, total.  Many have been waiting for the next set of state law news stories in order to determine what is going to be decided due to these allegations of these federal and state laws.</p>
<p>1.  Well, the results are in for all those that were waiting in order to see what decision in terms of sentencing would be made for former New York Commissioner, Bernard Kerik&#8217;s violation of the state laws.  For all those that have not been following the initial state law news stories surrounding the case, the initial state law news story states that after his year in the position as New York Commissioner, shortly thereafter, he had been charged with eight felonies.  This also came after a time when Kerik was highly praised, along with Rudy Giuliani as to the way that he had handled the September 11th attack.  By the year 2004, President Bush had nominated Kerik for the position as Secretary of Homeland Security.  A week after the nomination, Kerik had withdrew, stating that he had employed an illegal immigrant as his nanny, this is the point at which a range of allegations begin to merge that stated violations of several federal and state laws.</p>
<p>2.  The state law news circuit is stating that the sentencing that Bernard Kerik had received for the violation of the federal and state laws was four years in prison.  The state law news circuit says that one of the last things that Kerik had said before questioning was for the court to release him as soon as possible back to his wife and two children.  In addition, for his violation of the accused federal and state laws that Kerik plead guilty to, he was required to pay in the range of $200,000 of fines.  Some of the major federal and state laws to which these fines were assessed were due to six years in back taxes.  The range of prison time for violation of these federal and state laws fell within a period of 27 to 33 months, but Bernard Kerik was sentenced to 4 years in prison, and he is scheduled to turn himself in on May 17.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_13" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 490px"><a class="highslide" onclick="return vz.expand(this)" href="http://www.wiretapmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Greek-Custom-Strike.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-13" title="Greek Custom Strike" src="http://www.wiretapmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Greek-Custom-Strike.jpg" alt="Greek Custom Strike" width="480" height="360" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Greek Custom Strike</p></div>
<p>One of the most recent employment law news story currently has people posing questions about certain aspects of employment law.  People form all over the world are looking to the notion of employment law based upon an employment law news story that seems to have everybody talking.  The employment law news story that has everyone in the work force posing some very important questions regards the strike that is currently under way in Athens, Greece.  You do not have to be an inhabitant of Greece in order to find value in this particular employment law news story.  You also do not have to be an inhabitant of Greece, to then, in turn, gather a few questions of your own about your country&#8217;s employment law.  Another nation that has huge talk surrounding the current state of its employment law is the United States.  Employment law is always a high concern for any great nation, but throughout the past few years, many feel that it is imperative that all governments revisit the state of their employment law in the present day.  Well, therefore, the United States in no different when it comes to having those pertinent discussions about employment law.</p>
<p>1.  The employment law news story in Greece was set to run the course of three days, but the most recent word is that the employment strike has been extended.  The employment law news sources has stated that the strike will continue due to the fact that the Greek custom strikers do not feel that they have broken the ground that they need to in hopes of getting what it is that they are seeking out.  The employment law news stories indicate that the reason that the strike is being held is because of the debt that is currently rising in the country.  The employment law news stories say that the strikers would like the nation debt deficit to be conquered by making some changes in terms of government spending.</p>
<p>2.  The employment law news circuit is saying that some of the ways in which the Greek strikers would like the financial deficit to be cut is by freezing some government spending in terms of civil servant salaries, raises, bonuses, and stipends.  In addition, they are requesting that the retirement age be raised from 63 to 65 in order to save some tax payer dollars.  These requests have stemmed the thoughts of many surrounding the institution of employment law.  Many are questioning the current state of employment law in order to detect whether or not their nation could take advantage of some of the same financial cuts if this request was utilized.  They are questioning employment law in order to determine whether the current state of their employment law, even permits the government to implement some of these policies.  Those final conclusions are still being drawn.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_10" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://www.wiretapmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Haiti.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-10" title="Haiti" src="http://www.wiretapmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Haiti.jpg" alt="Haiti" width="480" height="264" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Haiti</p></div>
<p>Probably the biggest international law news story that everyone has been waiting to hear the most recent developments about is the international law news story involving the United States missionaries that went to Haiti in order to bring back some of the Haitian children orphans back to the United States.  This international law news story has been developing for several weeks now, and many from the international law news circuit was waiting to see how the judge will respond to the allegations at hand.  If the alleged in the international law news stories are true, then the conduct of these missionaries could have possibly been considered to be violation of international law.  If these missionaries out of the state of Florida had violated the international law, many were waiting to see what were going to be the penalties that were to be given to these missionaries for the violation of the international law.  Well, the latest details of this international law story has just been released to the public.</p>
<p>1.  The international law news circuit had originally reported that a group of missionaries from Miami, Florida had been apprehended while in Haiti due to their alleged attempt to take a total of 33 children out of Haiti after the major earthquake, and transport them back to the United States.  Since they were captured, the international law stories ha reported that they have remained in custody where they have undergone rigorous questioning.</p>
<p>2.  The most recent international law news reports state that eight of the ten missionaries have been released.  The international law news circuit is stating that the eight missionaries that were released were flown back to the United States and arrived in Miami, Florida early this morning.  The international law news circuit is stating that the reason why these eight were released was due to the fact that the parents of the children had testified, according to the international news circuit, that they had voluntarily given their children to the missionaries because they were convinced that their children would be able to live a better life.</p>
<p>3.  On the other hand, the international law stories say that despite the release of eight of the missionaries, two of the missionaries still remain in custody.  The international law stories are reporting that the other two are being held behind for further questioning in regards to the matter.  The international law sources say that the reason that the two are being held for further question, one of the two being the leader of the group of missionaries, and her nanny, is due to the fact that the two had come to Haiti several years prior in seek of adopting orphans.  The international law circuit is saying that the authorities want to determine whether or not there is more to the story.</p>
