If this is a request for a de novo hearing from an Associate Judge's ruling, you must set the de novo hearing before the district judge within 30 days of the date that the AJ issued his/her ruling.

Coerced into signing a plea deal because if not the lawyer said would get death penalty if didn't but no evidence was found no DNA no video no nothing how can one go about trying to get justice for a loved one?
answered on Apr 25, 2024
You can file a writ of habeas corpus and will have to prove coercion. Be aware that coercion is NOT recommending that a defendant accept a plea deal because, if not, he will likely receive the death penalty. Coercion IS pointing a gun at a defendant and telling him to sign the plea deal or you... View More

Some family courts enter an Omnibus Order that is really nothing... View More

Generally speaking, the court will not appoint a lawyer in a civil case including on appeal. That is largely reserved for criminal cases and cases in which CPS is seeking to terminate a parent's rights to their child.

This is one of those rare cases where I have to disagree with Mr. Arrasmith because, in Texas, only the prosecutor can file a motion to dismiss charges. Neither a pro se criminal defendant nor criminal defense attorney can file a motion to dismiss charges in Texas.

A quitclaim deed does not transfer title and shouldn't create a cloud on your title. A judgment usually becomes dormant after ten years. You may need to file a quiet title action against the new party claiming an adverse interest to your ownership in the land.
