Welcome to the Legal Forum - Health Warning
A new forum sparked by JudgeDredd who has kindly offered to contribute useful information and articles to us clueless laymen, and aimed at servicemen in particular. I hope this proves a useful resource.
There are of course potential problems in discussing legal matters, and please note that the forum is only a discussion area, NOT a consultation medium. We will hopefully have qualified moderators but their role may be limited to removing anything that is clearly duff advice, rather than active contribution. Time will tell.
Therefore do not take anything written in this forum as true legal advice. "I read it in the legal forum on ARRSE" is definitely not going to stand up in court.
The moderators won't be able to vet everything so posts may contain out-of-date information or just plain rubbish.
Finally if a poster claims to be a leading lawyer and have the definitive answer, bear in mind that this is an anonymous site and he could in reality be a 15 year old Brazilian girl called Paddy.
You have been warned!Good CO. Proud mouthpiece and evil doer of oppressive politic masters. Strives to ensure that you remain a slave and never know the real truth behind your insignificant life.
Please don't send me PMs - sometimes they'll be in my inbox for weeks! admin@arrse.co.uk and you'll get a decent quick response.

For the legal eagles among us an excellent site for military law matters is:
http://www.aspals.com/
Some interesting stuff, but it is a site aimed at lawyers rather than the casual reader, so it can be a bit to "brainy" for me in parts.'A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gate is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.'
-- Cicero, 45 BC
A man who foretold the Labour Party for they are The Enemy Within.

Re: Welcome to the Legal Forum - Health Warning
That's not difficult...you're RMP! Seriously though, ASPALS is an excellent site, but as with all quality sites, it carries an appropriate 'health warning' in as much as, should the reader require legal advice, then he or she should seek it from a practiing solicitor and not obtain it from the web.
If you haven't visited ASPALs and you have an interest, I recommend that you do so, if only to read the 'Sounding Board', which has been a bit quiet of late.
