BBC World Service - Documentaries - The Travelling Electric Chair

In 1945, an all-white jury in America took two and a half minutes to find a black man named Willie McGee guilty of raping a white woman.

Over the next six years, the case wound through three trials, and sparked international protests and appeals from William Faulkner, Paul Robeson, Josephine Baker, and even Albert Einstein.

Willie McGee was defended by a young Bella Abzug: attorney, activist, and eventually the first Jewish woman in the United States Congress. But on the night of 7 May 1951, he was put to death in Mississippi’s travelling electric chair – the only one of its kind in the US.

A local radio station broadcast his execution live from the steps of the courthouse. A newly discovered recording of that newscast provides a chilling glimpse into a lost episode of history.

Before his trial, his wife fled to Las Vegas with their four children. A generation on, Bridgette McGee-Robinson, Willie’s granddaughter, grew up not knowing why her family left the south. It was only by accident, while sorting through some papers under her mother's bed, that Bridgette found old news clippings of the Willie McGee case.

WikiAnswers - What does a judgment mean on an unsecured credit card

WikiAnswers - What does a judgment mean on an unsecured credit card: "What does a judgment mean on an unsecured credit card?
In: Law and Legal Issues, Credit and Debit Cards [Edit categories]

Answer

It means the creditor has won a lawsuit, been awarded a writ of judgment and can execute the judgment against non-exempt assets and property as defined by state law that belongs to the judgment debtor. The preferred method of executing a judgment is by wage garnishment, followed by bank account levy, the seizure and liquidation of non-exempt property and liens against real property. The state exemptions allowed for personal and real property when properly used can give the defendant/debtor considerable protection against the enforcement of a creditor judgment."

They must be able to produce a witness with first hand knowledge that the records presented were maintained in the regular course of business. An affidavit can be attacked in the same manner.

Civil Complaint Advise Needed Please - Credit Talk Forum

Civil Complaint Advise Needed Please - Credit Talk Forum: "First, it is absolutely essential to find the courthouse and answer the summons. You can find ' templates ' for the correct format for the answer, and the answers need to be denials of virtually all the points except the obvious: your name, your address, etc. Everything else you answer with ' Denied ', and you file the answer with the county clerk's office on the summons.

Make sure you get a stamped and dated copy of your answer. If you ask the clerk they will sometimes tell you whether states laws compel you to send a copy of your answer to the plaintiff, whose address is on the summons.

There is a period of 10-20 days after your answer, then many other things begin to happen. If you answer immediately you actually give up two to three weeks on the time frame, because the plaintiff's time period starts when you answer, not at the end of the original 20 days in the summons. So you can eat up some time for your mortgage by answering at the END of the summon's time frame. Just don't forget to answer.

Let me know if you need the template for the answer."
