Is it NC law or basically county/city ordinance where vehicles aren't allowed to parallel park on the wrong side of the street (this is in North Charlotte). Got some neighbors who literally are either too lazy to turn around when parking or just dont give a shit that there's a lack of parking spaces near my apartment building and park about as poorly as a 16yo girl. 10/28/2012 7:44:11 PM |

(a) No person shall stop, stand or park in a roadway upon which the boundaries of individual parking spaces are marked on the pavement other than parallel with the front of the curb or edge of the roadway , headed in the direction of traffic and completely within the boundaries of the delineated parking space. When no parking space boundaries are marked on the roadway the vehicle shall be parked as above except that it may not be farther than twelve (12) inches from the curb or edge of the roadway if there is no curb. On streets which have been marked or signed for angle parking vehicles shall be parked at the angle to the curb indicated by such marks or signs. The requirement that the vehicle be headed in the direction of traffic is not applicable if the parking space in question is on a street of two (2) lanes or less, without a marked center line, and located in a residentially zoned area." |
so it IS legal to park in the opposite direction in my mom's neighborhood

I stand corrected. Since the bed of the pick-up is isolated from the cab, its not within reach of the driver and thus not part of the passenger area. So yes, it is LEGAL to consume in the bed of a pick up or in the trunk area of an SUV. However, since this thread is not intended to treat, prevent or diagnose your legal issues and you should consult with your lawyer before and after any legal charges.

this is probably better a question for the DA but maybe you can shed some insight
I was discussing home defense/stand your ground with someone the other day and he was surprised when I told him that you're basically fucked legally if you shoot an intruder in the back, even if inside your house. It made me question the origin of that notion in my head; it makes sense to me why that would be a legal caveat but I'm not actually positive that it is.
In any case, assuming it is, he was grilling me on "even if?" scenarios as if I knew what I was talking about. For example, someone breaks into my house and finds me in my bedroom upstairs. I grab my pistol, he raises his and we both start shooting. Or any scenario where I'm being attacked at range and have the capability to return in kind. Say, perhaps due to something he said, that I'm certain he intends to kill me. If he turns around to run down the stairs or into another room to gain a strategic advantage, am I going to prison for murder if I shoot him in the back, even believing that he has no intention of leaving the house? Or maybe he's running with a huge kitchen knife away from me and toward my child's bedroom. Something like that.
Yes it's a fanciful scenario but you get the gist. Am I in legal trouble for taking the best opportunity to protect my family because the guy happened to be turned around at the time?

It's all about articulating "reasonable fear of imminent death or serious bodily harm to himself or herself or another." The only way to truly start to define what is justified and what is not, is new State case law involving "defensive force" and how it starts to define "reasonable fear."
Guy breaks in, comes in to your room with a knife and says he is going down stairs to stab your child - I would thank that shooting him in the back would be justified.
My beliefs and actions are defined differently than civilians but there are some parallels. When I was in a shooting, I had to explain what prongs of 15A-401(d)(2) were met and that there was an imminent threat of death or serious physical injury.

So in that scenario the onus is on me to convince a jury that I'm not lying in the absence of any living witnesses. How likely is that? Of course it would come down to the details, I just don't know of any specific case outcomes like this. 11/4/2012 7:52:19 PM |
