Does State of Pennsylvania require burial vaults for burial?

If the death was not from a contagious disease, no state law requires a casket or a vault. Most cemeteries on their own do require a vault, and most cemeteries dig the grave deeper than DOH regulations. There are numerous reasons for this. If the cemetery uses heavy machinery to dig graves or cut grass, etc., a vault will keep the machinery from damaging the remains. Also as time passes, the remains and wooden coffins disintegrate, which will cause the ground above the grave to sink such that there will be a large depression in the ground. Also, by reason of our geographic location, the ground in Pa. freezes and unfreezes several times throughout the winter season. This tends to push anything in the ground up towards the ground surface. A vault will also protect the remains from scavenging animals. Depending on soil conditions and flood plains the remains could also work their way to surface. During the 1972 hurricane and resulting floods in Pa., coffins floated down the Susquehanna River. A vault tends to hold everything in place. In the case of a body not dead of a contagious disease, burial is to occur within 24 hours of death. Otherwise the body must be embalmed or placed in a hermetically sealed container. [28 Pa. Code 1.23(a).] The Pa. Department of State's Board of Funeral Directors has a similar regulation (funeral directors may also use refrigeration under strict legal standards for bodies not disposed of within 24 hours of death). [49 Pa. Code 13.201(6).]

Comnwlth of Ky If you have a prelim hearing for a felony charge then make bond can you still be indicted LATER by the Grand Jury ie re-arrested if out on bond?

== == Well first off Virginia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania are the only Commonwealths in the United States. If you are on bond that just means you don't have to wait in jail for the trail to begin. A preliminary hearing has nothing to do with the Grand Jury. A preliminary hearing is a criminal hearing to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to prosecute an accused person. A grand jury serves or may serve only two distinct functions. First is a screening function where the grand jury evaluates evidence supporting possible charges and returns an indictment, if evidences suffices to it. A grand jury only has to find a preponderance of evidence, not like a traditional jury that has to find beyond a reasonable doubt. The other function of a grand jury is to develop information that is of value in determining whether grounds for a charge exist. Essential the same function except one they return an indictment basically saying there is enough evidence against you to go to trail. An indictment does not mean you will be brought to trail or arrested, that is up to the prosecutor. An indictment means there is a formal written accusation of a crime. So a preliminary hearing is usually just to let you know that you will be going to trail. If the judge revoks your bond or you get arrested again or you appear to be a flight risk you can be "re arrested". But as for now your on bond because you promised to appear back at court for your trail date.

Everyone has a right to ASK to go before the Grand Jury regarding their own case, but the Grand Jury has the final decision on whether they will hear you or not. That is true for everyone, even if you are incarcerated. You must make a written request to appear and give it to the Commonwealth Attorney who presents it to the Grand Jury. WRONG! Kentucky is indeed title "Commonwealth." I'm an attorney in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and I can tell you that if you don't know what you are talking about you probably shouldn't comment on Kentucky law.

Are minor children allowed to sit at a bar in Georgia?

As is usual, depends on the circumstances. If the establishment is defined as a "bar" under Georgia Law, meaning it derives more than 75% of its revenue from alcohol sales, the following code section 3.3.24.1 applies. No individual under the age of 21 shall enter or be allowed to enter a bar unless he or she is accompanied by his or her parent, guardian, or spouse who is 21 years of age or older. This subsection shall not apply to an individual while he or she is attending a live musical concert or live presentation of the performing arts for which he or she has paid an admission charge. This is a small number of establishments.
