KNOW YOUR RIGHTS baixar epub

Most people don't know their rights — and law enforcement knows it.

Know Your Rights: All 50 States is the most comprehensive state-by-state legal reference available for everyday citizens. Whether you're pulled over on a highway, stopped on a sidewalk, or standing at your front door, this book tells you exactly what the law requires of you, what it does not, and what to do when your rights are being violated.

What's inside: Each of the 50 state chapters covers ten sections in plain, direct language: identification and stop-and-identify laws, detention and traffic stops, arrest authority, searches and pat-downs, your right to leave, obstruction law, evidence suppression, officer accountability and your legal remedies, carrying firearms in your vehicle, and your First Amendment right to film police.

Grounded in real law: Every section cites the actual federal and state statutes that govern your situation. More than 40 landmark Supreme Court decisions — including Terry v. Ohio, Miranda v. Arizona, Rodriguez v. United States, Tennessee v. Garner, Riley v. California, and Glik v. Cunniffe — are explained not just by their holding but by what they mean for you in a real encounter.

Built for real situations: The Five Key Phrases are printed at the front of every volume. Every state ends with a Bottom Line — five bullets giving you the essential rules for that state in under a minute. Practical word-for-word scripts are included throughout so you know not just what your rights are, but exactly how to assert them calmly and effectively.

Also covers:

• Which states require you to identify yourself — and which do not
• Permit requirements and constitutional carry status for vehicle firearms in all 50 states
• Your right to record police in public, state by state, including all-party vs. one-party consent laws
• How to file a federal complaint under 18 U.S.C. § 242 when an officer violates your rights
• How to sue under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 — and how to hold the department itself liable under Monell
• Every state's official misconduct or oppression statute

This is not opinion. It is the law — your law — organized so you can find what you need when you need it most.
