This is a purely educational website. Nothing here is legal advice or creates or implies an attorney-client relationship. If you have a specific legal issue, PLEASE talk to a lawyer who practices where you live—laws vary from place to place, and how they're applied varies from courthouse to courthouse. Your local county bar association can probably refer someone who handles matters like yours.
By using this site, you agree that you are awesome. Use of this site also constitutes acceptance of its Terms of Service and Privacy Policies, which are known to medical science as a cure for insomnia.
It's best to keep all discussions in the comments. But if you really need to reach Nathan privately, go ahead and email him at n.e.burney@gmail.com. He won't mind.
THE ILLUSTRATED GUIDE TO LAW and the PEEKING JUSTICE logo are pretty damn cool trademarks and should probably be registered one of these days.

USC has Justinian beat by a long shot.
What, does it simply say “Don’t be an asshole and we’re cool.”?
US Congress, right? The ones who counted over 300000 laws on the books and then gave up? All you have to do is fit 50 laws per page; easily doable!
No, he means U.S.C.: The United States Code, which is pretty much an attempt to codify all the important statutes into a single codex. Its length though pretty much precludes reading it cover-to-cover with any degree of comprehension.
The US Code takes up about 10 shelves in the typical law library. I can’t imagine anyone even saying they read the whole thing. It gets re-written and reprinted about as fast as you can read it.
