Is it illegal to to work as an escort in the state of TX?

No.....because all your doing is escorting an individual, so it is not considered prostitution. So they are paying for a date, not sex.

you don't always have to go thru an agency. you can post ads in most newspapers - especially free urban weeklies and gay papers - advertising yourself as an escort.\n\nif you choose to do this, i hope you'll at least be smart about who you go out with and how you do your stuff. PRACTICE SAFE SEX!! :)

Of course it is! What state statute would make it illegal?

No, it's not illegal. Haven't you watched TV really late at night? They have commercials that advertise phone sex.

no its not legal in Texas. u can put them on light poles and trees. u can ask local stores if its alright to put them in the stores window. another thing is to go to your local radio station and ask them to put his dog type on the air to see if anyone has seen him.

It is not legal, but not illegal as long as you cannot and are not seen. If you were stopped for any traffic violation or had an accident, you would receive a ticket and possibly go to jail for indecent exposure, since at a minimum you would have to roll down the window.\n\nTake care,\nTroy

Well it's illegal, so no, not really. You could get in big trouble for possession if you get caught.

It depends on Texas legislature, but at least in the Northeast it's very much ILLEGAL. In fact, you get prosecuted for animal cruelty. I would suggest calling the police and reporting this guy.\n\nThen i would suggest calling your local news station and see if they can let everyone in your neighborhood know what a ....-hole he is. No better payback than having all your neighbors hating you.\n\nI'm sorry this happened, i hope you get him!!!

Escort service, no. Brothel yes. It all depends upon what the escorts do while they are out on call. This is a pretty fine line to walk, and you should expect to be checked out periodically by the authorities should you decide to run a legitimate (aka no sex) escort service. Then there is Nevada, in which anything goes...

TX is a right to work state so you are NEVER guaranteed a job/benefits unless you have a written contract.  Since your job was in TX, TX law governs the labor law.  Since TX is right to work it will be hard to prove that anything done was illegal unless it was done in retailiation for illegal reasons. (ie retailiated against because of using FMLA leave, etc)  Also the 10k bonus plan is just that a bonus plan, unless you meet all the qualifactions for getting the 10k then they of course don't need to pay you, and again unless there was a contract they can cancel any plan they choose.

If you do not have a high paying relative, probably nowhere.\nIgnore the snarky dude who mentions stripping, prostitution or anything in the drug or sex industry.  You do not want to mess up your life.\nFor what it is worth, J.R. Rawlings who wrote the Harry Potter books once had very low paying jobs.  She is now in a position to "not have to work."

federal\nCanadian law on prostitution has changed little since our first Criminal Code outlawed "bawdy houses," procuring and living on the avails of prostitution; then as now, the Criminal Code did not prohibit the buying and selling of sexual services. But these longstanding laws against prostitution are largely unenforced, as anyone consulting the yellow pages under "escort services" will realize. In fact, most municipalities gave up on enforcement long ago, turning instead to regulation, licensing and, as for all commercial establishments, taxation. As citizens we all live off the avails.

It's pretty much illegal to give someone under 16 a job, or a "real" job because of child labor laws. So some places give jobs to 15 year olds, but the laws are so strict even they can't work more than about 15-20 hours a week, so most places won't even bother with you until you're 16. \nTry getting a job helping out a parent, babysitting, or start selling things on ebay.\n\nps. I'm from Texas too :D, cept the DFW area, originally Houston.

in some cities it is illegal, because you take away the money they would make on writting tickets. the penatly would be according to that city.

But if you're not talking about private security, then no.  Law enforcement officers derive their authority from the State in which they are employed, and the State doesn't contract with private citizens in a freelance mode.\n\nYou might also Google bounty hunters, as they do what some people consider enforcement, though it isn't law enforcement so much as it is armed debt collection.

Maybe. You do not if you practice in the JAG corp or for the federal government. You also do not if you want to practice in TX only, or just do minimal work in other jusidictions pro hac vice.
