BigHead posted:I only ever seen that tried once. The judge was rolling his eyes as the expert testified "Technically it's possible but you would need to eat four hundred large muffins in about seven minutes." Are those mohn hamentashen something to worry about? The ones filled with poppy seed paste are loving amazing but I always wondered if the could show up on a drug test. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poppy_seed_paste

Seems like a challenge. Also lol at an attorney actually trying to argue an accidental intox on a opioid DUI. You just argue he wasn't THAT high. (No really, I also tried a lot of drug DUIs.)

Well here's the study that says 25 grams of raw uncooked poppy seeds will make you test positive for 100ng/ml of morphine. Morphine is what heroin turns into after it passes through your liver. Remember governments recommend a 2000ng/ml cutoff to assign "positive." https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C48&q=poppy+seed+opiate+urine+test&btnG=#d=gs_qabs&t=1673588797001&u=%23p%3D8Op8h1cTDq4J Apparently the morphine in the poppy seeds is from "cross contamination" with the bad parts of the plant as they harvest. Another study says 90 percent of the morphine cooks off with "food processing," which I assume is muffin baking: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C48&q=poppy+seed+opiate+urine+test&btnG=#d=gs_qabs&t=1673589166123&u=%23p%3D209wGjaeRkAJ So, 250g of cooked poppy seeds will get you up to 100ng/ml of morphine in your blood. Too hit 2000ng/ml you'd need 20 times more, or 5000g of cooked poppy seeds. That's a lot of muffins. And you need more because metabolism will cleanse the morphine with time, so your first muffin's morphine will be peed out by the time you eat muffin 400. I don't know if the poppy seeds in your poppy seed jam Danish count as "food processed" or what they do at the poppy seed farm to process the seeds for shipping. Let's keep going. Here's a recipe from King Arthur (the flour company) that requires 28g of poppy seeds for 12 muffins, or 2.3333g per muffin. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/lemon-poppy-seed-muffins-recipe Therefore to hit the minimum level of stoned off poppy seed muffins you need to consume 2143 muffins, eaten very quickly so as to not metabolize any muffins out of your blood stream. Of course, if you can get your hands on unprocessed raw poppy seeds then you only need 500g, which just thinking about it I could probably do with a spoon if I had enough motivation. If you go to Google scholar and just search for poppy seed opiate urine testing you get a million results and you can read all the headers (I think they're called headers) for free. Google scholar is the best. BigHead fucked around with this message at 07:14 on Jan 13, 2023 |

Even though the government recommends the 2000 limit, according to wikipedia, some places still use the 300 limit which seems ...not great

Phil Moscowitz posted:I bet you could make a paste of concentrated poppyseeds and boof that, maybe that would work That's why I mentioned the hamentashen. They're filled with a paste that's about 50/50 sugar and ground poppy seeds. They sell 2 pound cans of it on amazon. I've never seen someone sit down and eat a can but I've seen someone sit down and eat about half of it in pastries.

Hot Dog Day #91 posted:So it's basically a myth that Seinfeld created and let's defense lawyers grasp at something for their opiod-addled clients? No, it's not a myth -- comically Mythbusters tested it and even confirmed it in an episode. The issue is that because it's real, anyone testing to a judicial standard should know it is real and use a test calibrated to screen out low exposures. It's real, so a good test makes sure it's accounted for and screened out. You'll still see it sometimes though on cheaper, lower-standard testing. It's a potential danger for like workplace drug screens and other settings where people might be using bad tests, but in a DUI case the standard is actual impairment and a muffin won't impair you. Tl;Dr: there's enough real truth to it that you might be able to convince your boss, but it won't work in a trial unless the prosecution severely hosed up Hieronymous Alloy fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Jan 13, 2023 |

I've been reading about that sewer service case in California. Out of curiosity, how do you, as a lawyer, combat that if you're defending a client that's been a victim of it?

San Antonio, TX. I have a friend who has had the water main break in her front yard 5 times and the foundation of the house has shifted. I can only assume it is the service pipe to the house and not the actual water main since it is in the yard. The city is claiming they have no liability for the foundation damage. That's pretty much all I know. Does she have any recourse or can anybody give any advice?

I don’t know TX law but a quick googling says the responsibility shifts to the homeowner at the property line. Some places it might be the meter as the line of demarcation. If it’s on their property and on the house side of the meter, they’re probably hosed.

Tell him to Google up an attorney that does imminent domain/ condemnation cases, and that attorney will have a really good idea of why the city's almost certainly not liable to them.

Hypothetical but extremely practical: If a cop stops you and says the typical stupid poo poo like "do you know why I stopped you" or "do you know how fast you were going", etc, what's the correct answer? Obviously it isn't "no I don't" because I guess that could be seen as self incrimination (Captain Acab writes "did not know what speed limit was" or "did not know their speed" and you've screwed yourself, if you have any desire to fight it in court). What do you say, though? Just repeat "I don't answer questions like that, sir" or "I'm sorry, but I don't answer any question that may incriminate me in a court" or "Am I free to go" etc? Is there a way to do that without the cop checking your skin tone and wondering if he can get away with extrajudicial punishment?

Doug Sisk posted:Have there been any cases that were won or lost due to spell check out autocorrect? The WA Supreme Court just reversed a case in part because the transcripionist (a person of color) transcribed the prosecutor (who I don't know) as consistently saying "po-leece" instead of "police." The WASC held this was clear evidence that the prosecutor was racist because only black people would say it like that and talking like a black person should be forbidden. It was a very strange case. Edit there was a lot of other bad stuff in the case and it should have been reversed. BigHead fucked around with this message at 04:43 on Jan 16, 2023 |

You don't know why he pulled you over. Maybe you were speeding. Maybe you were following too close to another car. Maybe he mistook your car for some other car. Maybe he has no reason and is just fishing. I think a polite, friendly "No, I'm not sure officer" would be fine for "do you know why I pulled you over". But it's not a perfect answer for every question; it wouldn't work well for "do you know how fast you were going?" for the reasons you articulate. The most general "on-script" answer is probably to stay polite and friendly and possibly have an apologetic expression on your face and say something like "sorry, I can't answer questions without talking to my lawyer". The whole combative "am I free to go" business is your right, but practically speaking there's no upside. The fight is in court, not the side of the road.

I love the “how to avoid paying the ticket I earned” discussion. If you got pulled over you probably did something wrong. Acknowledge it like an adult, pay your fine, and next time drive within the laws.
