An anti-crime law in Texas requires criminals to give their victims notice, oral or written, 24 hours in advance of the the crime they're planning to commit and the nature of that crime. It seems unlikely that someone who is already planning to break one law would follow this law and actually put pen to paper: "Dear Karen, I'm planning to break into your house and steal your Wii in 24 hours."

Sounds like one of Discworld's thieves' or assassins' guild regulations.

I love it, unions for thieves.

Only question is who would they picket and where would they plant their butts when they go in strike?
