You're still legally dead, judge tells Fostoria man

Donald Eugene Miller Jr. walked out of Hancock County Probate Court on Monday as legally dead as ever. In 1994, the court ruled that Miller was legally dead, eight years after he disappeared from his Arcadia rental home.
The same judge, Allan Davis, ruled Monday that Miller is still dead, in the eyes of the law. Miller's request for a reversal came well after the three-year legal limit for changing a death ruling, Davis said. Miller, 61, now of Fostoria, spoke softly in court and offered few details about his past. Miller said he was an alcoholic who was unsure what to do after losing his job.
"My paycheck was being taken away from me and I had nothing left," he said.
"It kind of went further than I ever expected it to," Miller said. "I just kind of took off, ended up in different places," he said.
He said he briefly worked odd jobs in Atlanta and Marathon, Fla., after leaving Hancock County sometime before 1990. His parents informed him of his "death" upon his return to Ohio in about 2005, he said. Miller told Judge Davis he neither sought alcohol treatment nor contacted his children in the time after he left. Miller said he would like to start his life again, or "whatever's left of it." He asked the court to reverse its 1994 death ruling so he can reinstate his canceled Social Security number and driver's license.
The court said no.

Doesn't that mean he doesn't have to pay taxes? He can get away with shit and what not? o.O He can't get help either though so hm..
It is crazy though that a judge wouldn't turn it back even though the guy stands in front of him.

So does it count as necrophilia if he's fapping?

What if he kills a person? They don't usually keep corpses in jail...

What if he acts like he kills a person but they can't do anything about it cause he's legally not alive. And then the person he killed comes back and has lost his right to being alive as well? Does that legally make him an infectious zombie?

The judge refusing him the reversal doesn't make any sense....I don't understand....I'd go up and bitch slap the judge and see what he says after I tell him I'm dead so I couldn't have really done it...
