THE CHARLES WARE JURY TRIAL PROJECT: Jury Trials Are Disappearing - Why ? Good or Bad News ?

www.charlesjeromeware.com  " Here to make a Difference. Tomorrow's Lawyers Today.'

Increasing case docket pressure on judges - leading to more civil settlements; stiffer sentences in criminal cases - leading to more plea bargaining; greater use of mediation and arbitration, et al., are adding up to the increasing disappearance of jury trials in the United States.  The national law firm boutique of Charles Jerome Ware, Attorneys and Counselors, LLC, with the assistance and cooperation of the American Bar Association and several law schools, has created and impanneled the Charles Ware Jury Trial Project in Maryland and the District of Columbia to study this important issue on a nation-wide basis.

In 1962, there were 5,802 civil trials in the federal courts and 5,097 criminal trials, for a total of 10,899 federal jury trials. In 1985, total federal jury trials had risen to 12,529. In 2002, however, jury trials in federal courts had dropped to 4,569 in civil trials and 3,574 in criminal trials. Thus, our federal courts actually tried fewer jury trials in 2002 than they did in 1962, despite a five-fold increase in yhe number of civil filings and more than a doubling of the criminal filings over the same time frame. In 1962, 11.5 % of federal court cases were disposed of by jury trial. By 2002, that figure had dropped to 1.8 percent

Baltimore and certain residential communities in D.C. are essentially considered to be "ground zero" for residential lead paint and lead poisoning claims and lawsuits. Residential landlords for pre-1978 built houses and apartments in these metropolitan areas are particularly targeted for lead poison claims by rental tenants.

LANDLORD TIPS FOR MINIMIZING LEAD PAINT CLAIMS : A PRIMER, by Attorney Charles Jerome Ware - MARYLAND & D.C.-Based

www.charlesjeromeware.com  " Here to make a Difference. Tomorrow's Lawyers Today."

1. Before purchasing a residential property that was built before 1978, determine the history  or background of the property : including lead paint, asbestos, mold, lawsuits, major repair work, etc.

2. Hire qualified government-agency-certified ( e.g., Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) , U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, etc.) workers for all lead-abatement work, etc.

3. If at all possible, acquire adequate lead poisoning liability insurance, and other appropriate insurance coverage.

4. Provide tenants at all times with lawful and proper "notice" of lead hazards and potential lead hazards, etc. [ see TITLE X (10), etc.].

5. Diligently repair and maintain the rental property at all times. Seek lead-free certification on the rental property.

6. Record and maintain precise tenant  and property files.

7. Perform adequate background checks on all potential tenants.

8. Remember these 3 keys to being a  successful landlord :  (a) maintenance of the property,  (b)notice to tenants, and (c) good record-keeping on both the tenant and the property.

ANTITRUST AGENCIES SEEK VIEWS ON PROPOSED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (IP) GUIDELINES : A PRIMER

www.charlesjeromeware.com  "Here to make a Difference. Tomorrow's Lawyers Today."
 Essentially, the new proposed FTC and DOJ Antirust Guidelines for Licensing of Intellectual Property re-enforce the two Federal agencies' (1) 1995 Antitrust Guidelines for the Licensing of Intellectual Property ("the IP Licensing Guidelines") and (2) the 2007 joint -report, titled Antitrust Enforcement and Intellectual Property Rights, Promoting Innovation and Competition ("the Antitrust IP Report").

In sum, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice Antitrust Division's (DOJ's)  views are that the IP Licensing Guidelines "remain soundly grounded" as a matter of antitrust law and economics in three basic principles:

A. The FTC and DOJ apply the same antitrust analysis to conduct involving intellectual property
      as to conduct involving other forms of property, taking into account the specific characteristics of a particular property right.

B.  The agencies do not presume that intellectual property creates market power.

c. The two agencies recognize that intellectual property licensing allows firms to combine complementary factors of production and is generally pro-competitive.

One of the more costly mistakes Baltimore residential rental landlords make is not engaging due diligent research of the history of the property prior to purchasing it. This includes not determining
definitively whether the property was built before 1978 [the year the Federal government outlawed lead paint use in residences in the United States].

A second costly mistake is the landlord not inspecting, repairing and maintaining the property in a diligent manner; paying particular attention to signs of lead, mold, asbestos, etc.

A third mistake is the landlord not using qualified, insured, Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) or Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)- certified workers for all lead abatement work, or other hazardous removal work on the property.

A fourth mistake is not seeking reasonable and adequate liability insurance (including lead (Pb)), and other proper insurance coverage.

 A fifth tip is to make sure you follow all lawful Federal and state "notice" requirements to the tenants, including compliance with Federal law  TITLE X (10), etc.

A fifth tip is for the landlord to create and maintain diligent tenant and/or rental property files. I also recommend that the landlord keep these files for at 21 years per tenant.

Baltimore, Maryland  and other major Northeast U.S. cities are considered by many commentators to be "ground zero " for lead  paint poisoning, primarily because of its many pre-1978 built residential units (apartments and houses) as well as its previous heavy industrial use of lead (Pb). New Orleans  and southern Louisiana areas are  heavily considered  major mold hazards due to the prevailing swamp and other substantial water level conditions. Both are hazardous to humans, and both are preventable and defensible.

It is important to note that tolerating lead and mold in one's on abode (personal living area), though clearly not a wise decision, is not particularly illegal.  However, be on notice that it is generally  illegal for residential landlords to tolerate hazardous lead paint and lead poisoning, as well as harmful mold, in their rental units ( houses and apartments).

In the areas of lead-based paint and mold poisoning litigation, several trends are of increasing concern to property owners nationwide. Federal and state agencies and health departments have consistently lowered the amount of lead considered threshold-permissible in lead-based paint in  pre-1978 built residential units to the extent that added millions of housing units nationwide are suddenly in violation of local and Federal lead (Pb) ordinances and regulations. Similar increased governmental scrutiny has also increased for instances of mold. In fact, numerous commentators have suggested that in certain circumstances lead and mold poisoning cases are "indefensible".

Both lead paint and mold claims can, however, be defended on a number of legal grounds. From the defense attorney's as well as the liability insurance company's perspective , probably the best defense
to lead and mold poisoning claims and lawsuits begins with education and monitoring of their clients/insureds.

It is essential that residential rental property owners be active in monitoring and preventing lead paint, lead poisoning, and mold hazard claims, rather than simply reacting to complaints of lead and mold violations.

SOME  COMMON MISTAKES, ESPECIALLY LEAD PAINT, THAT BALTIMORE RESIDENTIAL LANDLORDS CAN MAKE:


1.  Not getting a good history on the proposed rental property before purchasing it. This is particularly true --- for lead paint liability purposes --- in cases where the property was built before 1978.


2. Only use qualified Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) or Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) - certified workers for all lead abatement and other hazardous substance removal work on rental properties.


3. Create and maintain good record-keeping on all tenants and rental properties. Maintain "tenant" and "rental property" files; and in cases involving possible lead paint, keep these file for at least 21 years.


4. Seek diligently to acquire adequate liability and other types of rental property insurance.


5. Do not fail to disclose and remedy environmental hazards such as lead, mold and asbestos---
as soon as you become aware of them.


6.  Lawful and proper notice to tenants of environmental hazards such as lead (Pb) in the rental property is crucial, pursuant to Federal TITLE  X (10) and other statutory mandates.


7. Be vigilant concerning your tenants and your property.  Do not let your tenants and rental property be easy prey for criminal activity.


8  Hire good and competent rental property managers, when necessary to protect your rental property as well as your tenants.


9. At all times, stay on top of needed repairs and maintenance in the rental property.


10.  Remember that tenants have legal rights, too. Do not invade their lawful privacy,

MARYLAND'S  NEW DRUNK DRIVING LEGISLATION --- " NOAH 's LAW " ---
                       GOES INTO EFFECT ON OCTOBER 1st, 2016

The new law --- The Drunk Driving Reduction Act of 2016 (NOAH's LAW) significantly expands the State of Maryland's  MVA Ignition Interlock Program in an effort to keep drunk drivers off the State's roads.

An ignition interlock is a device that prevents a vehicle from starting when it detects a certain level of alcohol on the driver's breath. The law mandates an ignition interlock device for convicted drivers. The convicted driver is required to participate in the program for the following convictions:
(1) Driving Under the Influence (DUI);
(2) Driving While Impaired (DWI) while transporting a minor under the age of 16; and
(3) Homicide or life-threatening injury by motor vehicle while DUI or DWI.

The length of time the convicted driver is required to participate in the program is:
(1) For the first incident,  it is 6 months.
(2) For the second incident, it is one year.
(3) And, for the third or subsequent incident, it is 3 years.

If the driver receives a DWI after refusing to take a chemical test ( a  mandatory interlock is required) he or she will be required to participate in the ignition interlock program for one year.

2.

As lawsuits against landlords increase, common sense is no longer enough. Rental property owners need to know to stay on top of their business and out of trouble with the law. Get good legal advice.

Fundamentally:
- Every landlord should screen and choose carefully the best tenant.
- Legal rental agreements or leases should be clear so as to avoid any misunderstanding. Oral assurances are legally unenforceable, generally.
- Hire a reliable and trustworthy property manager.
-Know the law, rules, and legal responsibility for lead paint claims and poisoning, mold, illegal tenant illegal, the returning of security deposits, and disclosing of all environmental hazards such as lead (Pb), mold, asbestos,etc.
- Minimize crime on the property, limit liability, and much more.

For questions or a free initial consultation, call us at (410) 720-6129 or (410) 730-5016. Defense attorney Charles Ware and his staff can help you if you have been sued for lead poisoning. This site is for information only, and not legal advice.

In recognition of the health problems caused by lead poisoning, The Federal Government created the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, commonly known as TITLE X (10), and enacted it in 1992 (42 U.S.C. 4852d). In the Act, Congress directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to write regulations specifying how TITLE X's goal of lead hazard reduction should be accomplished (24 CFR Part 35 and 40 CFR Part 745).

The TITLE X regulations apply to rental property built prior to 1978.

The regulations specify that, among other things, before signing a lease or rental agreement, you must give every new tenant the EPA pamphlet, Protect Your family From Lead In Your Home. Both the landlord and the tenant must sign an EPA-approved form --- Disclosure of Information on Lead-Based Paint and/or Lead-Based Hazards --- that will prove that the landlord told the tenant about any known lead-based paint or lead-based paint hazards. Alternatively, the landlord may use similar forms approved by the State but is consistent with the EPA model.

The landlord must keep the executed disclosure form as part of their tenant records for at least three years from the date of the start of the tenancy.

Due principally to area's large number of pre-1978 built houses and apartments, as well as its prior heavy industrial exposure to lead (Pb), Baltimore landlords are major targets of lead paint and lead poisoning claims and lawsuits.  In fact, there are some commentators who believe that some lead paint claims in Baltimore are "indefensible".  We respectfully disagree. There are always defenses to these serious claims.

In an effort to expand the knowledge base among landlords and residents the Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan area about lead paint laws, we offer the following brief summary of source information:

- From THE PEOPLE'S LAW LIBRARY OF MARYLAND "Lead Paint Law: Rights and Obligations
 for Renters and Property Owners [ www.peoples-law.org] : Maryland and Federal Laws about lead paint are designed to reduce childhood lead poisoning while maintaining affordable rental housing.
These laws provide rights and duties for renters and property owners in pre-1978 residential rental properties/units ("Affected Properties").

The homes that are covered by Maryland's lead paint law : Only pre-1978 built residential rental properties/units are regulated by the Maryland Reduction of Lead Risk in Housing Act.  Owner-occupied properties/units are not regulated.  Affected properties/units that are Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE)-certified lead-free or limited lead-free are exempt from Maryland lead paint law. Affected properties/units owned or operated by Federal, State, or Local governments, or by a public, quasi-public, or municipal corporation are also exempt, provided the Affected Properties are subject to standards at least as strict as the standards established in Maryland's lead paint law [ Md. Code Ann., Environment, Sections 6-801, 6-803, and 6-804].

- See, The Residential Lead-Based Hazard Reduction Act of 1992, also known as TITLE X (10), 42 U.S.C. Section 4851, et seq.;  24 C.F.R. Section 35.80, et seq.; and 40 C.F.R. Section 745.100, et seq.

Lead paint claims and lawsuits have been on the rise for at least a couple of decades in the United States, particularly against landlords from rental residents of pre-1978 built apartments and houses.
Baltimore, Maryland and other major cities in the Northeast with older housing communities are key targets for these claims and lawsuits.

These are serious cases involving potentially catastrophic damages to bot victims and landlords. Damages recoverable in lead paint lawsuits are similar to those recoverable in other types of personal injury litigation : medical expenses, lost earnings, pain and suffering, etc.

Lawsuits by tenants against residential landlords are the most common type of lead-based paint claim. These claims are brought against not only private landlords but also against owners of public housing. These landlord claims are grounded in allegations of negligence, breach of implied warranty of habitability, fraud, consumer protection, and other statutory violations

Generally, Howard County and Montgomery County are among the more civil jurisdictions in Maryland to get a divorce. But, divorce is still divorce  --- no matter where you are located. And, civility can be hard to come by in divorce actions.

Before filing for divorce, we recommend you educate yourself as much as possible about the process
in Maryland; put your children first (remember: they are not the ones getting a divorce); set goals and make plans, and keep the "big picture" in mind; get copies of all financial records as soon as possible; get good legal and financial advice; and, as an individual remember who you are during the divorce process.

             Modern Howard County and Montgomery County, Maryland Divorce
Effective now in Maryland, there are three new laws that update (so to speak) Maryland divorce.
(1) The first new law reduces the time from one year to six months the required time needed for one of the divorcing parties to reside in the State of Maryland if the grounds (legal reasons) for the divorce occurred outside of Maryland.

(2) The second new law clarifies and simplifies the circumstances in which a couple can get a limited divorce. This law removes elements of nthe limited divorce ground that required voluntariness of the separation and the absence of any reasonable expectation of reconciliation. In sum, this law recognizes that if the parties no longer live together and one of them no longer wants to continue the marriage relationship, neither a court nor the State of Maryland should prevent the limited divorce process, which is --- of course --- limited in scope

(3) The third new law creates an entirely new ground (legal reason) for divorce in this state. The law essentially permits a couple who have worked out all of the terms of their divorce, and who have no children in common, to avoid waiting for up to a year before seeking permission from the court for a divorce. The new law also potentially allows this same couple, where finances are tight, to live in the same residence while in the process of a divorce.  In some circumstances, this might allow marital assets needed post-divorce, for such things as housing costs, to be divided sooner than the normal one-year separation, etc.

                       THE PHYSIOLOGY OF INTOXICATION

Alcohol, or ethanol, or ethyl alcohol, or grain alcohol --- however referred to --- is one of the
earliest and most widely used drugs in existence. Generally, it is legal in many jurisdictions in the United States.  Alcohol is a clear fluid whose low molecular weight and high solubility in water cause it to diffuse rapidly through body tissue membranes and reach equilibrium in tissues at levels proportional to water content. Blood, for example, will hold proportionately more alcohol than will muscle tissue.

For alcohol to produce its effect, it must reach the brain. To accomplish this, alcohol must first pass into the bloodstream after absorption through the walls of the stomach and small intestines. This is a fundamentally simple biochemical process of diffusion, which will continue as long as the concentration of alcohol in the stomach and intestines is higher than that in the blood.

Breath analysis is the most commonly-used method of testing for blood-alcohol. For a number of scientific and practical reasons, it is unreliable as well.  While just about universally considered not as accurate or reliable as blood tests, it still has generally been regarded in law enforcement circles as acceptable if administered correctly. The biggest problem is that all too often DUI breath tests are not administered correctly by police.

There is inherent error in  DUI  blood-alcohol analysis.  Even if the proper procedures were correctly followed in a given blood, breath, or urine test, even if the instruments and/or computer systems used were functioning perfectly, and even if all chemicals, blanks, and standards were of the proper quantity, blood-alcohol analysis is not a perfect process.

Therefore, it is generally recognized by scientists that such analytical methods have an inherent, or "built-in", error factor.

In drunk driving cases breathalyzer testing devices can give false readings due to interference from foreign radio waves such as AM and FM radios, televisions, microwave ovens, cellphones, police radar units, etc.  The potential sources of RFI within the law enforcement environment are numerous.
These police sources may emit the kind of interference that could cause specific breath testing apparatus to render false results, to the detriment of the defendant.

At the law firm of Charles Jerome Ware, Attorneys and Counselors, we pay particular attention to the special defenses that can be used to successfully defend women charged with DUI and DWI.

Baltimore , Maryland is considered by many to be "ground zero" for lead paint claims and lawsuits in the United States. Two of the major reasons are (1) the large number of pre-1978 built rental houses and apartments an (2) the prior heavy industrial use of lead (Pb). For  over two decades now, Baltimore has been inundated with lead paint lawsuits. That trend does not appear to be lessening.
In fact, there are some commentators who say that some lead paint cases are indefensible.  We respectfully disagree. There are always defenses in lead paint cases.

At the law offices of Charles Jerome Ware, LLC, we have unique and effective experience in the defense of these lawsuits on behalf of residential landlords.  We understand how difficult it can be
to try to recreate circumstances that may have occurred many years before (as is typically the case).
However, we work closely with our clients to develop the best possible defenses to issues of lead paint and lead poisoning negligence, as well as contesting any allegations of injuries that follow claims of lead paint poisoning.

DUI THEORY OF THE "AVERAGE PERSON" : MARYLAND DUI DEFENSE LAWYER CHARLES WARE - "Tomorrow's Lawyer Today"

www.charlesjeromeware.com           "Here to make a Difference."
For any questions or a free initial consultation, call DUI  and DWI defense attorney Charles Jerome Ware at (410) 720-6129 or (410) 730-5016. He can help in your defense against drunk driving charges.

One of the greatest sources of error in drunk driving law enforcement using blood-alcohol testing machines
is the consistently fallacy that the individual (suspect) tested is "perfectly average" in certain critical
physiological traits. This is utter nonsense. Put another way, the fallacy perpetuated by law enforcement is that the obtainment of an accurate blood-alcohol reading is completely dependent on the validity of a number of scientific assumptions. Unfortunately for the person (suspect) being tested, these assumptions are usually incorrect:  The person being tested is rarely "average" whatever that means) in even one of these critical physiological characteristics, let alone in all of them.

Quite frankly and simply, these DUI breath and blood testing machines do not test individuals.  Rather, they purport to test the mythical "average person" over and over again, but erroneously using the unfortunate suspect's breath.

IT is a fact that, here in Maryland and throughout the United States, more and more women  are being charged with DUI and DWI offenses than ever before. Despite what the courts and prosecutors say, however, there are a number of factors which indicate that women are more likely than men to be falsely arrested for drunk driving. It is for this reason that DUI and DWI defenses for women can be more complicated at times, but still a wide range of defenses are available.


Because of the differences in how the female physiology has been clinically proven to handle alcohol
as compared to men's bodies, and other issues concerning the DUI testing itself, there are defenses for women that do not apply to men.


Expert testimony, for example, has consistently shown that when women are charged with a DUI, they are often placed in a bad position by false results from the initial breathalyzer test. Further, roadside sobriety virtually always place women at a disadvantage

Maryland state and national studies show an increase in women being arrested for DUI  and DWI than ever before.


A woman's unique physiology handles alcohol differently than a man's physiology, and so presents offenses that are not available to men in their DUI and DWI cases.


Some studies show that a woman's alcohol metabolism is affected by their menstrual cycle and can also be affected by oral contraceptives. Other studies indicate that women have less alcohol metabolizing enzyme in their stomachs, as well as having smaller volumes of distribution.


If you are a woman charged with DUI or DWI in Maryland, call us for a free consultation. We are experienced the defenses which may help you win your drunk driving case.

                                  The Physiology of Intoxication


Ethanol, or ethyl alcohol (grain alcohol), is one of the earliest and most widely used drugs in existence.  It is a clear fluid whose low molecular weight and high solubility in water cause it to diffuse rapidly through body tissue membranes and reach equilibrium in tissue at levels proportional to water content.  Blood, for example, will hold proportionately more alcohol than will muscle tissue.

For alcohol to produce its effect, it must reach the brain.  To accomplish this, it must first pass into the blood stream after absorption through the walls of the stomach and small intestines. This is a simple biochemical process of of diffusion, which will continue as long as the concentration of alcohol in the stomach and intestines is higher than that in the blood.

Blood alcohol analysis, then, is simply the attempt to measure the amount by weight of alcohol within the subject's blood at any given time. This amount, expressed as a percentage of the blood in which it is found, is then compared to a scale of percentages established by law for determining the presumptive levels of intoxication.

This commitment necessitates our ever-improving legal strategies for the benefit of our clients.


In Baltimore, lead paint and lead poisoning cases against residential rental landlords are popular.
And, they can be very costly to landlords financially and emotionally. There are many commentators who consider Baltimore to be "ground zero" for lead paint cases in the United States, because of the many pre-1978 built residential units still used as well as the prior abundant use of lead (Pb) in Baltimore area industries. Call us with any questions you may have about this difficult process.

In my many years of defending clients in DUI and DWI cases, I have learned and used numerous
on behalf of my clients. They are too numerous to mention here, but there are a few will note:

Booking room videos  are gaining in popularity among police departments. Many police stations videotape arrested suspects some time after the arrest , where their speech can be clear and their balance is fairly normal, in spite of police testimony in court to the contrary. As a defendant, you will want that videotape.

Increasingly, for some unknown reasons, police are failing to mirandize suspects in DUI cases. This is illegal.

It is generally recommended as protocol that police conduct a proper and reasonable observation of the suspect  for,say, at least twenty minutes before administering the breath test  This observation period lends more credibility to the validity of the test.

The police officer must be properly trained to administer all drunk driving tests, whether they be field sobriety test or machine tests. Police are frequently improperly trained.
