In the common law, legal advice is the giving of a formal opinion regarding the substance or procedure of the law by an officer of the court (such as solicitor or barrister), ordinarily in exchange for financial or other tangible compensation. Advice given without remuneration is normally referred to as being pro bono publico (in the public good), or colloquially, pro bono. Legal advice is distinguished from legal information which is the reiteration of legal fact. Legal information can be conveyed by a parking meter, sign or by other forms of notice such as a warning by a law enforcement officer. Printed legal materials, such as directions and how-to manuals, are generally not considered legal advice. Accordingly, directions on how to fill in a motion form and other court documents do not constitute legal advice. On the other hand, application of legal rules and principles to a specific set of facts is almost always held to constitute legal advice by the courts. Online Legal AdviceWith the advent of the internet, many services have been established to provide individuals the power to conduct their own legal research or prepare their own legal documents. In addition, some companies have taken it a step further by offering answers to legal questions directly through their web services. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I have a client interested in a high-level of AES Encryption. I am concerned about how far we are allowed to go before it becomes something the government would be concerned about. Where can I obtain the current legal information surrounding the maximum allowed civil limits of encryption, specifically AES? Thank you. Please don't link searches. I have searched for the information, I am just not sure where specifically I should be looking. This is for US limits on civil development of encryption software. It wasn't links I was turning away, it was links to a search engine. =-] Thank you for the links you did provide. They have pointed me in the right direction.

Most articles on the subject pertain to the bit length of the encryption used (such as 128-bit 40-bit) and do not go into the specifics of encryption type (AES, DES, etc). Obviously, you should double check any information especialy that provided to you on these boards as these are opinions based (hopefully) in fact... but I see people say things on here all the time as fact that are not true. So, if your company has a general counsel I would advise running any questions you have by them.. it's what you pay them for! :) So I will leave you with a couple links (I know you don't want them but since I've already given you… [cont.] Answered by ForensicGirl - Mon Sep 17 11:44:21 2007 I am trying to find legal information regarding the rights of salaried employees.? Q. It is not for myself but a friend I am concerned about is salaried and forced to work 12 hour days 5 days a week and then 10 hour days every other Saturday. Also was recently told by the boss that it was highly discouraged to go out for lunch and should therefore bring lunch to work and eat in the office. They failed to mention upon hiring that the job would be every other Saturday and also hid the long hours until after the paperwork was signed. This job was an in company (but different office) transfer and they refuse allowing a transfer back despite the unethical behavior upon hiring. Paperwork read to the effect of, employee works 40 hour work week, occasionally longer hours may be required. But this isn't occasional...it is… [cont.] Asked by FairyNanook - Thu Jul 19 02:18:30 2007 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. None, there are not laws on the limit of hours a person can work. There are not really ANY laws protecting employees in any way. The only law supposedly protecting us is that we must be paid overtime pay...and that is only on hourly salaries. Also, we have a right to work. Meaning we can either work or not, and the employer can either fire us or not. Both at their whim. Big deal. Other than that we have nothing. Some states do not even require the employers to give an employee break times or lunch times.
