By now most of us that are on Social Security have received our notice about the cost of living adjustment which in my opinion is a Slap in the Face. For my wife the increase just covered the additional cost of plan B and for me it went to cover the Federal Tax.
Resisting arrest. (a) A person commits the crime of resisting arrest if he intentionally prevents or attempts to prevent a peace officer from affecting a lawful arrest of himself or of another person. (b) Resisting arrest is a Class B misdemeanor.
âAn illegal arrest is an assault and battery. The person so attempted to be restrained of his liberty has the same right to use force in defending himself as he would in repelling any other assault and battery.â (State v. Robinson, 145 ME. 77, 72 ATL. 260). âEach person has the right to resist an unlawful arrest. In such a case, the person attempting the arrest stands in the position of a wrongdoer and may be resisted by the use of force, as in self-defense.â (State v. Mobley, 240 N.C. 476, 83 S.E. 2d 100).
