Ask your lawyer before doing anything! No lawyer? Get one!<BR/><BR/>But on the face of things, if both parties are in Indiana, then only Indiana law applies; I can't imagine why the law where you live would matter. Proving your husband is in Indiana would be done in the usual way -- getting someone to testify that he was at work that day, or whatever.John Cowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452247999156925669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11807812.post-72130333136624689392007-11-28T18:17:00.000-05:002007-11-28T18:17:00.000-05:00My husband and I live in Michigan but he works in ...My husband and I live in Michigan but he works in Indiana... my husbands ex-wife live in Indiana She is ver abusive on the phone and we are getting ready for a custody fight for the 4 children. We want to record the conversations between my huband and his ex. Even though Michigan is a two party state and Indiana is a one party state, can we record the conversations that occur when he is at work in Indiana and she is also in Indiana? If need be, how can we prove that he was physically in Indiana when the recording was made?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11807812.post-1161533018856102172006-10-22T12:03:00.000-04:002006-10-22T12:03:00.000-04:00Lauren, I don't see any reason why a California co...Lauren, I don't see any reason why a California court shouldn't be able to assert jurisdiction in such a case if a California plaintiff brings suit. Alternatively, the Californian might bring suit against you in an Ontario court, which would probably then apply California law. I doubt that the California criminal statute would have much purchase provided you stayed out of the jurisdiction.<BR/><BR/>Jim, I think it would be. However, if I had no reason to think you were in California, that would be a "mistake of fact", and I would probably escape prosecution. Now, however, I'm on notice (/me turns off recording device).John Cowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452247999156925669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11807812.post-1161516142871271882006-10-22T07:22:00.000-04:002006-10-22T07:22:00.000-04:00So you're calling me on my UK phone number (one pa...So you're calling me on my UK phone number (one party consent) but I'm sitting in California at the time using VOIP - would that be violation of the California law?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11807812.post-1161388101218923942006-10-20T19:48:00.000-04:002006-10-20T19:48:00.000-04:00I believe Canada also has one-party consent.

Very, very handy to record all your phone calls when doing interviews! But I still felt somewhat shady doing so, and it did get me into some...er... bad habits when I went back home to an internship at a newspaper in Pennsylvania.Ezrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768543629114555536noreply@blogger.com
