I would say they are pretty rare now days, but when I was first a FF, one of the neighboring departments still had one, which really wasn't used.
We went and visited their department one day, and we all had to try it out. I think there was only one sprained ankle out of the 10 or so guys who tried it, fortunately not me!

In reading the article, it would seem the way the civil forfeiture law as written for Albuquerque is totally against Constitutional law, hasn't this issue raised before by other attorneys? If so, what was the outcome of those cases? If it has been disputed before, did the city just quietly settle out of court to keep their law intact?
Have they approached you and the client about this?

My wife's uncle was a Air Force HVAC repairman, who was also stationed offshore during Vietnam. He says his unit would go onshore for the last 3 days of the month(s), staying 6 days so they were there 3 days of the next month. This was so they would spend 6 days in the combat zone, and get combat pay.
Surprising part of his service during Vietnam, was there was no record of him being in Vietnam or Vietnam Service medal. Had to track down his CO to confirm he was there and provide the needed documentation of his service, even though he had his Vietnam Service Medal.

Problem in the US is that the doctors knew they should have done an MRI, but didn't want the issues of dealing with the insurance company who would have rejected the payment for the MRI.
Likely the insurance company would have required some useless series of test before they would have allowed the MRI.

The woman in this case was using you as an excuse.
In her mind she never does anything wrong concerning her kids, so it had to be you who caused the screw-up.
You should have volunteered to take the kid back out and leave him there.
