What should you do if you get picked for jury duty? How does \u003ci\u003eforce majeure\u003c\/i\u003e void a contract? From simple questions to complicated legal terms, hometown lawyer extraordinaire Tom Brown is here to scratch his head along with you. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDe Minimis\u003c\/i\u003e was first conceived as a column in the \u003ci\u003eSeniors Sunset Times\u003c\/i\u003e, a monthly newspaper popular on the Olympic Peninsula and geared toward those in their golden years. Brown's pithy advice has been a staple of the publication for seven years. He has compiled the helpful articles in this book to simplify the complexities of the law and share his legal view of this crazy world. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor example, you shouldn't give your favorite cocktail waitress power of attorney, you shouldn't play Sudoku while serving on a jury, and you shouldn't use \u003ci\u003eforce majeure\u003c\/i\u003e unless an act of God is in play and you know how to spell in Latin! \u003c\/p\u003e In addition to offering basic advice useful to anyone, Brown focuses on specific information targeting senior citizens. The American legal system is difficult for anyone to navigate, but the elderly especially can get lost in the minutia.
