I know in Arkansas you can carry any sized knife concealed or open carry as long as you don't have any intent to harm anyone. Does this work for swords too?

In order to sue a police officer you have to usually prove that somebody has successfully sued over an extremely similar issue in the past. Which is difficult because it means the first person to sue over a unique issue will usually not recover any money.
Did this happen in Arkansas or Oklahoma?

Yes it is possible. It is best if you learned about this stuff after the plea, call attorney Michael Kaiser in Little Rock he does this kind of work.

For all the caveats, see this blog:

I was wondering if the state of Arkansas follows federal law concerning felon in possession of antique/pre-1899 muzzleloading firearms.

You can't possess those in Arkansas as a felon, but air rifles are probably legal.
You can get a pardon from the governor if the conviction was in Arkansas.

There might be a speedy trial issue but it depends on whether or not the judge has been taking the time.

If that's all you did, it wasn't. If you were arrested because of that or charges, you've got a lawsuit.
I have a class D felony expunged in Arkansas. The conviction is from 1996 and the order to seal was issued in 2007. At that time in 2007 all civil rights including the right to possess firearms, were part of the expungement effect. However as of 2014 the law was repealed and under the new law,... View More

The new law won't impact your old expungement. You should check with ACIC (Arkansas Criminal Information Center) to see if you have your firearm rights.

Yes and another case came down Thursday confirming that again. These police officers broke the law and your friend could probably sue them. I defend these cases and sue over constitutional violations, another attorney and I just won this case:

Is it a feeling or misdemeanor? Maybe if it is a misdemeanor you can hire an attorney to take care of it.
If it is a felony, you have to come back.
answered on Jun 27, 2019
That's unclear. You should try to fight the charges. You might be able to get the charges reduced even if you are guilty of everything.
should the case be dropped

Your girlfriend's son does not have the power to charge you with a felony and he did not do so.
The police and the prosecutor are the only ones with that power. Your gf's son complained to them, and they charged you.
If it is a conflict of interest, I'm sure the judge... View More
Person gets upset with friend and reports his vehicle stolen , is this theft by receiving charge ? Or any charge at all
answered on Jun 7, 2019
If they were given permission then it would not be a crime. If permission was revoked and communicated to the person borrowing the car that is an unauthorized use charge or a theft of property charge based on the circumstances.
