You'd have to check with the local fire marshall. Everything I've looked up indicates that "Dangerous fireworks" are prohibitted, but they don't go into too much detail about what a "dangerous firework" actually is. I'd guess they mean display-level fireworks, but it's best to be certain.\n\nAnd just as an aside to the person above, fireworks are a whole lot *less* dangerous than many things that people use every day, such as cars, knives, forks, and things of that nature. Should we outlaw those things, too? Don't seek to punish those of use who act safely and responsibly just because a few idiots don't know what either of those two words mean.

Smoking is banned in certain areas of Nevada, Measure 5 passed.  You will still be allowed to smoke in casinos and bars, but not where children are allowed (like the sports bars I think). but not in grocery stores and child care centers,etc. (my god, i had no idea that wasn't already law!!!)

Court records are a matter of public record, but in order to look at most court filings, you may need to visit the court clerk's office. You could try looking at the court's website for information about court filings. Clark County District Court has info available on Blackstone, http://courtgate.coca.co.clark.nv.us/, but I didn't see the party name you are looking for there. Washoe also has a similar website, though I am much less familiar with that end of the state, www.ccwashoe.com. The Nevada Supreme Court posts advance opinions online for ninety days at http://www.leg.state.nv.us/scd/OpinionListPage.cfm, but I didn't see that party name there either. It would help to know which court or at least the city or county, any dates, first name, any other known info.

FOR RELEASE:\nWednesday, June 21, 2006 \n\nCONTACT: \nDan Hopkins 303-866-6324\nNate Strauch 303-866-6323\n\nOWENS BANS OPEN BURNING AND FIREWORKS ON ALL STATE LANDS\nGovernor also asks cities, counties to consider need for similar bans\n\n(DENVER) - Gov. Bill Owens announced today that he has banned open burning and fireworks on all state lands in Colorado. This includes all state parks and forests. The order is effective immediately.\n\n"The hot, dry conditions increase the potential for a major fire every day. As the July 4th holiday approaches, more people will be streaming into our parks and forests making it imperative that we take all possible precautions," Owens said.\n\nThe ban on open burning on state land, contained in an Executive Order, includes campfires, warming fires, charcoal grill fires, fireworks and "any other activity that poses a significant risk of starting a fire." The ban does not include permanent fire structures that have been built to diminish the risk of wildfires. \n\nAt a news conference at the State Capitol, Owens asked cities and counties to consider similar bans as needed in their jurisdictions. In a letter sent to county commissioners and municipal officials, the Governor stated, "I am strongly encouraging local governments to closely examine the fire danger in your jurisdictions. Following that evaluation, I urge you to implement bans that are reasonably necessary in light of your local fire threat."\n\nOwens pointed out that while he has the authority to issue a statewide fire ban, municipalities and counties are in the best position to implement and enforce such bans since local governments can impose civil and criminal penalties for violations. \n\nThe Governor also stressed that under a state law passed in 2002, local governments have broad authority to restrict or ban the use of fireworks. "Even seemingly tame fireworks, like sparklers and fountains, pose a significant threat. That is why I strongly encourage local governments to work together to impose consistent fireworks restrictions that are appropriate for the fire danger in each region," Owens said.\n\nOwens also detailed the fire fighting resources currently available in Colorado. State equipment includes three Single Engine Air Tankers specifically under contract to Colorado and 17 specially-equipped fire trucks operated by state and local crews and pre- positioned where needed. Owens funded the operation of the state equipment under an Executive Order signed in April which made $2 million available for fire suppression activities. \n\nFederal assets within Colorado include two heavy air tankers, five single engine air tankers, 11 helicopters, six aerial attack coordination aircraft and a smokejumper aircraft. Colorado has the ability to access additional federal equipment under the Cooperative Fire Management Agreement between Colorado and federal agencies. \n\nThe Governor also directed the state's National Guard to prepare its helicopters that are equipped to fight wildfires to be ready for immediate activation. The Guard currently has four helicopters available, including a Blackhawk and three Hueys. \n\nOwens reminded Coloradans that at a special session of the legislature in 2002, state laws concerning wildfires were severely strengthened. The tougher laws include:\n\n\nIncreased criminal penalties of up to 12 years in jail and a $750,000 fine for setting a wildfire. \nA tripling of civil damages that can be sought from someone who starts a wildfire. \nMaking it a crime to toss a burning object, such as a cigarette, from a motor vehicle.\n\n"We all must be vigilant," Owens said. "If you're in one of our parched, dry areas, take a moment to think of the terrible consequences that can result from just one careless act. Obey the fire bans and obey the laws."\nAccording to the Rocky Mountain Coordination Center, 576 wildfires have already burned over 80,000 ac

OK, guys.... The answer is that pornography is a business, licensed by the state and they pay taxes.... It follows the film industry guidelines making it legal..... \nProstitution is not permitted except in 16 counties in Nevada where it is a licensed business just like any other retail store.  I am not joking here.. \nIn Clark County Nevada, Las Vegas, prostitution is illegal therefore you can't get a business license and you don't pay taxes.  \nIt is economics people...... \nNow, the difference between porno and hookers.... Not much except as a general rule, the porn stars are a little better groomed and cared for.  They make the producer's very rich so they are treated much better than the hookers on the street.  \nPorn stars also get W-4 forms at the end of year to pay taxes on their earnings just like anyone else.  Hookers, no....

Traditions are not established by law, they're established by the people who do whatever it is that they traditionally do.  Some traditions -- such as using fireworks to celebrate certain holidays -- may need to be modified to conform with local laws or ordinances, e.g., no explosives allowed in residential areas.

I'm not sure if there's a law that specifically states that an ambulance should be on-site, but the government has produced a leaflet for fireworks organisers which gives tips for successful and safe fireworks displays, as well as outlining the organiser's responsibilities to the public.  In it, it states that organisers should "Arrange for first aid posts to be manned by qualified people.".  They should have also given the emergency services prior notice of the event.\n\nI hope you're son's alright.\n\nHere's the link to the leaflet:\nhttp://www.dti.gov.uk/fireworks/displays.htm\n\nIf you want to search for legislation regarding fireworks, visit the site below:\nhttp://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts.htm

in Las Vegas prostitution is illegal.  \n\nIn the United States, "it" is legal in only one of the fifty states, Nevada. And then not everywhere in Nevada; Las Vegas, Reno, Carson City and Lake Tahoe still have it illegal. Supposedly the city fathers (and mothers) don't think that prostitution contributes to the family-oriented image that these gambling centers want. So any "action" that you may get in these cities will be high-risk in more ways than one. \n\nIt is only in certain counties in Nevada where prostitution is legal. State law forbids legal prostituion in counties which have a population over a certain number (hence the big cities are out); the remaining counties may have legal brothels, at local option. Not all do. \n\nStreet-solicitation is illegal; only in licensed establishments can you legally meet a Lady of the Night. \n\nHope this helps!

In California I'm pretty sure it's legal. I had one for years. You could always just call the police station and ask. \n.

Of course it's legal! Las vegas is the marriage capitol of the world!  You just have to visit the courthouse downtown and get your marriage license.  It's not a big deal to do and there is no waiting period.  You can get married the same day you get your license.  CONGRATULATIONS!

Fireworks on the beach in the city limits (Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach) are illegal.  That's the bad news.  The good news is that everyone does it anyway, so unless you shoot a bottle rocket DIRECTLY at a cop, you will PROBABLY not get caught.\n\nDon't call me if you do.\n\nAnd my favorite fireworks are the screaming fishes (at least I think that's what they are called.)

according to the north carrolina laws, i broke three at one time and am now married to the lady. \n\nIn N.C it's if two unmarried people check into a hotell room they are now married. It is illegal to have sex between the two beds in a motel room, and While having sex, you must stay in the missionary position and have the shades pulled.\n\nIn South carolina.\nEvery adult male must bring a rifle to church on Sunday in order to ward off Indian attacks. I never did that.\n\nIt is considered an offense to get a tattoo. OOPS!\n\nLancaster County: It is illegal to dance in public. I LIVE HERE, i'm screwed!\n\nWhen approaching a four way or blind intersection in a non-horse driven vehicle you must stop 100 ft from the intersection and discharge a firearm into the air to warn horse traffic. NEVER DID THAT EITHER. OUTA TRY IT THOUGH!

banning them wouldn't stop people from finding ways to acquire them.\npeople just need to be more responsible, know the dangers of fireworks etc.

I would think the county government.  If you receive no responses from them, you might consider contacting the State Fire Marshal's office.  They may not have the direct power to address the issue, but they might be able to knock over some rocks.\n\nHave you considered contacting an attorney?
