The Fletcher School s keystone degree program, the Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy (MALD), enrolls over 180 of the top students from more than 80 countries. The interdisciplinary approach to the curriculum - drawing from the school s three divisions - ensures that each student gains a breadth of knowledge in international affairs. Students gain depth of knowledge through two fields of study in functional and regional concentrations. For decades, the MALD degree program has graduated many of the world s leaders in private, public and non-profit sectors.

The two-year Master of International Business (MIB) program is a hybrid degree that combines a flexible international affairs curriculum with a core of business courses.

#FL Dept Rev - Child Support Amounts

Child Support Amounts

A child support order tells the parents what they must do to support their children. Enforcing child support orders means getting the parent to do what the order says.

Trespass means many things to many people. To one person, it means walking into an area posted with signs that state, No Trespassing. To others, it means walking into a business, loitering for a long time and then leaving without making a purchase. To others, it may be a homeless person living for several days, or even weeks, at an empty foreclosed upon house without permission.

These ideas are all correct to some degree. Under California Penal Code § 602, trespass is defined as willfully entering another person s property with the specific intent to interfere with that person s property rights. Willfully means on purpose or deliberately. Specific intent means that one intends to not only do something, but that one intends the consequence of the act, i.e. loitering in a business with the consequence of interfering with that location s business.

The defenses to trespassing are fairly logical from the definition of ... Read more »
