Arjan:
Things are tunning towards an apocalypse now but normally immortals have loads of time.

--- Quote from: Mira on March 04, 2020, 12:26:05 PM ---My best friend's husband is a lawyer, I think it depends on the type of law one practices. In some areas the laws change more frequently than others.. However as far as I know he might take a week or a weekend once a year to get caught up on them, not much time when one is immortal.. As a practicing lawyer, he already knows the law, reading and understanding the fine points of a new law or change shouldn't take all that long.

One's field of practice doesn't affect one's jurisdiction's CLE requirements. (I know some field's require certain CLE's be taken, but the overall number doesn't change). It's not necessarily about staying on top of things; it is necessarily about meeting state mandated requirements.
--- Quote from: Mira on March 04, 2020, 05:36:46 PM ---I think the main point is Mab thinks like a very good lawyer.
--- End quote ---
I do think that was Jim's point. He said "some of the fae ... they understand codes." These fae would be natural lawyers. They wouldn't need law school, training, or much practice to be effective practitioners of mortal law. Which does go to my original point of bringing up that Mab is a lawyer. Those fae would be good at handling a bureaucracy.

--- End quote ---
I have no idea what the rules are in the various European states. I'm sure they're different in each one. I'm also sure Mab has interests in all of them.
Mab could always represent herself. She wouldn't need a license for that.

But do they have loads of free time?

The Gatekeeper and Harry in Cold Days:
--- Quote ---I felt my eyes get wide. “An immune system . . . What happens if it . . . you know, if it breaks down for a bit?”
“Pardon?” the Gatekeeper asked.
“Uh, it gets a glitch. Like, if somebody new took over or something and things had to reorganize around here . . .”
“Most years, it would pose no major difficulty,” he said.
“What about this year?”
“This year,” he said, “it could be problematic.”
“Problematic.”
--- End quote ---
Maeve could ignore her duties for more than a century, Mab can take a few days of normally. But not now maybe.
Bad Alias:
Solid point Arjan. I'm still vehemently of the opinion that Mab's time could be better spent.
morriswalters:
You have to wonder, who could bring a legal action against Mab? How could a process server serve her? And what court has jurisdiction in the Never Never.
