SUPERSEDED by new edition. Look for the latest version of this book elsewhere on this site.Louisiana civil law notaries enjoy functions, responsibilities, and earning potential unmatched in any other state - and reserved there to attorneys. Louisiana notaries wield the power not just to verify signatures but also to create the legal papers they notarize, including affidavits, donations, powers of attorney, and even wills and trusts. And so much more, with no educational requirement beyond high school ... but a state exam that is famously challenging. The entire process to become a notary is difficult, and wrapped in some mystery. This book is helpful if you're in the beginning stages of becoming a notary public. Or just thinking about joining the profession. It's about the process of registering to be a notary, and why you'd want to. It's about the classes, resources, and options available to prep for the exam. It's not a study guide to the test's content itself. Other books do that, including the best-selling Sidepiece guide also by Prof. Childress of Tulane. But it does explain the format of the exam and the structure of questions so that a candidate knows how to start studying. Previously, no one had offered a guide to the preliminary but confusing steps you take to be eligible for the exam - or rules and tips you'd want to know right away about the exam process and its "open book." Website information can be unclear and incomplete, without disclosing the realities. This book is about "what I wish someone told me from Day One when I was considering becoming a notary in Louisiana." An affordable addition to the Self-Study Sherpa Series from Quid Pro Books, now in a widely available trade paperback edition.
Espionage comes to the U.S.-Mexico border and Northern Australia, and a family of intense and fiercely loyal Americans get caught up in the intrigue.By 2008, a global cocaine cartel is expanding aggressively. In remote Arnhem Land of northern Australia, ocean vessels, trucks, and vans move the cocaine to urban markets-and the cartel uses hidden tunnels to deliver it across the California-Mexico border. The cartel's planes, sea vessels, trucks, and drones counter U.S., Mexican, and Australian law enforcement's own technologies. But the Iraq War has disrupted transnational law-enforcement's cooperation.In 2009, the new Obama Administration seeks renewed transnational law-enforcement cooperation against the cocaine cartel. Rep. Sarah Donaldson's congressional intelligence committee funds an undercover operation. She turns to old friends: the Berneray family of spies. The Berneray mother, Diana, and Donaldson were covert anti-Vietnam War activists.

Tom, the son, is Donaldson's field agent in Arnhem Land and on the U.S.-Mexico border. And the father, Vietnam veteran Jim, has experience in all these places. But Jim mysteriously disappears in Arnhem Land.Facing discovery and betrayal, the Berneray family perceives Tom's old adversary, CIA agent Albert Jennings, is behind the attacks. They confront the grim truth that everyone-including family themselves-can be double agents.A new novel from emeritus professor of law and history Tony Freyer.
In the first systematic examination of the role and impact of visiting judges, Borrowed Judges analyzes the U.S. courts of appeals' use of judges who visit from other circuits and in-circuit district judges, along with the courts' own senior judges. It shows the considerable variation in the extent to which these judges are used and their role in writing the law of the circuit. It also shows whether their presence affects courts in rehearing cases en banc and whether the U.S. Supreme Court grants review. The study draws on insightful interviews with judges, their statements both public and within the court, and empirical data gathered by the author."This fascinating work provides much-needed attention to questions triggered by the ways in which some federal courts of appeals use the help of visiting judges or district judges to manage their caseloads. The well-documented study shines a spotlight on just how much influence, albeit small in proportion to total cases, these visiting judges may have on the work of some federal circuits where much of our law is decided."- Stephen Wermiel, American University Washington College of Law"Professor Wasby has carefully unearthed the unintended systemic and precedential impact of visiting judges. Both federal judges and seasoned appellate practitioners need to absorb this unique work."- Gary H. Wente, Former Circuit Executive, U.S. First Circuit"This study examines the extent and consequences of the federal courts' dependence on visitors. It reveals a well-functioning judiciary, able to find ways to use its limited resources wisely, and a robust judicial process in which visiting judges are far more than potted plants. It is a wonderful study that should be of interest to students of the federal judiciary, judicial administrators everywhere, and-one hopes against hope-even members of Congress who are loathe to find a practical way to expand size of the federal judiciary."- Malcolm M. Feeley, University of California-BerkeleyA new and compelling resource from Quid Pro Books.
