Evidence Seized Pursuant To An Improper Search

As Americans, we are protected "against unreasonable searches and seizures" under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Search warrants are not to be issued for less than "probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized". If a judge finds that a police officer or other law enforcement agent violates an individual's Fourth Amendment rights, then any and all evidence they collect as a result of the illegal search will be excluded at trial. This is what is known as the "exclusionary rule".
If you feel that your rights have been violated, contact the law office of Andrew Farmer. We want to help.

Accidents With An Over the Road Truck

It seems that the public often looks at truck accident cases just like any other car wreck case. Unfortunately, this failure to consider a truck accident case as unique is a mistake. In doing so, the trucking company may escape responsibility for putting an unsafe vehicle on the road, pushing a driver to the point of exhaustion and putting profits over public safety. Although there is much to consider in any trucking accident case let's start with the rear end collision:
People often believe that rear end collisions are the fault of the driver that collides into the rear of a vehicle. This is not always the case. When a passenger vehicle collides with the back of a large truck and/or tractor-trailer, and runs beneath it, the resulting accident could be that the amount of damage or resulting injury could have been avoided if:
1. The truck had a rear guard designed to prevent these types of accidents. 2. If the truck has a guard, but it is designed poorly and fails to provide adequate protection resulting in serious injury. 3. Reflective tape or reflectors, used to warn approaching cars, is missing or obscured by mud or dirt.
It is also important to note how the car held up in this type of collision. Was the car "crash worthy"? Did the air bags deploy? Did the glass shatter? Did the seat belts work? A proper inspection should be made of any car involved in a serious accident. Scenarios like this often occur. If you have any questions, contact the Law Office of Andrew Farmer.

Sales Contract

"What is a fixture? My contract to sell my house said that all applicable fixtures are to remain. What does this mean?"

By definition a fixture is a tangible object that had been personal property but has become so attached to the real property that it has become a part of it. To be a fixture, the object must retain its original identity even after being affixed to the real property.
For example, if you go to a store that carries sinks then the sink is personal property, but once it is installed and is affixed to plumbing, then it becomes a fixture. A refrigerator that plugs in is not a fixture and would have to be agree upon specifically in a contract to sell a home, if it is going to stay in the home. Attorneys can answer legal questions regarding contracts. The law office of Andrew Farmer has serviced clients from Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Knoxville, Dandridge, Jefferson City, Newport, Johnson City, and Kingsport, and is ready to assist you with any legal matter that you may need help with.

Premises Liability

"I fell leaving a basketball game in Knoxville. I slipped on a patch of ice leaving the arena and broke my wrist. What can I do?"

If the storm was occurring and everyone was having to deal with it at that moment then no one is liable. It was just an accident. However, if the snow or sleet wasn't currently falling and it was just a hazardous condition, then maybe they are liable. Let's take a look at some elements of premises liability.

In Tennessee the person or entity responsible for maintaining a piece of property in a safe condition can be named in a premises liability suit if a person is injured on the property because of negligent maintenance. For example, the landlord of an apartment complex, who also manages the building, has the responsibility to keep it safe or be held liable.
In the fall at the arena question, you are an invitee An invitee is someone who comes to a property for business, or something that is to the economic advantage of both parties. The most common business invitee, of course, is someone who goes to a commercial establishment like a store, restaurant, health club, tavern, spa, bank, or office.
Business invitees are entitled to the highest level of care. The people responsible for making a property safe must exercise care to make sure the property is safe for business invitees. If dangerous conditions can’t be repaired, business invitees must be warned of any danger.
If you feel that any of these situations apply to you, then seek legal counsel. The law office of Andrew Farmer wants to help.
