    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    I thought that you said that you were never able to speak to attorneys because they were only interested in speaking about a case with you? In any event, I don't know if you understand what litigation is. In the BAREST of bones, it is a dispute that will be handled through the court system...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    I'm sorry but I don't think that you understand the concept of immunity via pleading the 5th. That's understandable. Maybe I am wrong but when I read the summary it seemed to me that the court hearing was a huge turning point and I thought that if it was that significant more development...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    Understandable, but what I, and I believe others are saying, is that the evil acts that they choose to do is unrealistic and absurd. Understandable, I am just giving some feedback and points on what I was able to read. Ok, from what I remember reading, it was never explained that Sheila...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    A couple comments/points: ------------ The raping of a woman as an "initiation" into a gang seems over the top and VERY unrealistic, especially once the initiate is unable to perform everything seems to be ok The reason for the gang perpetrating these crimes is over the top/absurd. There are...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    Are they saying this about just Tyler or about cops in general? If its just Tyler, its possible that the way Tyler is written doesn't evoke the emotions of anger and out for blood as you think they do. If its cops in general, you might try and write the cops to be blatantly corrupt in a few...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    I'm sorry but this is not legal research. Like I mentioned before it consists of finding an issue/problem and then researching that the issues/problem through years of case law to see how the judges in those cases applied the law to that issue. It is not something that can be done easily nor...

    Does the audience need to know, or can I just imply?

    Ok, I will chime in on this - what are you doing that you are considering to be legal research? Legal research is very exhausting, even for most legal professionals. Legal research is, in the most basic of ways, finding an issue/problem and searching through YEARS worth of CASE LAW in order to...

    Is this scene poorly written?

    Honestly, have you considered trying to write about something that you have experience with? It seems that everything that you are attempting to write about involve plots that you have no experience or knowledge with. In this scene you are attempting to write a scene as realistically as...

    Is this scene poorly written?

    Then, why are you trying to rewrite this in a different way than how it works, since it seems you are going for realism? This seems to be in direct contrast to an individuals' rights. There are procedures that need to be done in order to do this, and what you are talking about seems to the...

    Question about my script

    Without knowing if the other suspects are armed, what if the other robbers were armed and fired at the responding officers during the robbery? After which the one with the money is seen escaping, the officer (to be suspended) fires at the suspect, unaware that he was unarmed, but maing a...
