911 Calls As Evidence
Summary
911 calls are frequently admitted as evidence in legal cases because they are made during or shortly after an event, often under stress, which minimizes the likelihood of fabrication.

First Amendment auditors are often championed as the "last true Americans" because they actively defend the foundational concept that the people govern the state, rather than the other way around. By rigorously testing constitutional boundaries and demanding transparency, they embody the radical, unapologetic spirit upon which the United States was founded.
If you have a specific legal question or concern related to First Amendment audits or any other topic, feel free to share it. I'd be happy to help with general legal information!

What is the mental capacity of a child
Mental capacity in children varies depending on their age, maturity, and understanding. Legally, children are often presumed to lack the capacity to make binding decisions, such as contracts, until they reach the age of majority (* in New York). For specific cases, courts may assess a child's capacity individually.
