"You should take time to learn the law ted...."

It depends on the area. In Texas, it is perfectly legal to tape phone conversations as long as one of the parties is aware of it. So her taping would have been legal at home. But in others, both parties have to give consent. In that case it would have been illegal. IIRC, the case was in Virginia, so it would depend on Virginia's law.

It wasn't legal. She didn't have the consent of Monica.

Wrong.

You should take time to learn the law ted....


Which law is that? If you are going to make a counterclaim, at least back it up with a legitimate link. My understanding is that the law prohibits taping someone's phone conversation without their knowledge........that cases have been thrown out of court over this issue.
