You can definitely record the amount your deductible went up and over time as well and likely... View More

Your chances are very good at getting an ACD if you have a clean criminal record… Worse comes to worse we could probably get a conditional discharge for an unclassified misdemeanor as opposed to the highest count you are being charged of, an a misdemeanor. The key is that you have representation... View More

It depends on the jurisdiction, but pleading guilty could affect immigration status and any judge will tell this to a defendant prior to a plea. In general, these cases are criminal if the person has a “guilty mind” meaning that they knew the license and our registration was expired; if they... View More
New york state, first marriage I assumed was annuled. I am only 23. I remarried. Being charged with bigamy
answered on Aug 4, 2018
This is a relatively straightforward case to defend and would cost somewhere around $700-$1200 depending on the stage of the matter. I believe bigamy requires a guilty mind, or “mens rea” as we call it, so we have a number of different defenses we can use. Also, in these cases I generally... View More

Have your attorney asked the judge to recuse himself. That is really the only way to do it, and often times they will refuse, but by having your attorney voice your complaint on the record you preserve the issue for appeal. After the fact, are now but it’s not going to help you directly, you can... View More
How does 2015 New York Laws VAT Title 7, Article 23 1100 apply to this? Is it saying that "public highway" and "parking lot" are synonymous?

No
If someone is trying to tell you that it is call me and hire me and I will make sure it is fixed. It is definitely not a public highway, giving you a defense to DWI under certain circumstances as well as a defense to driving without a license, at least the criminal version of it which... View More

As Sam said, it depends on the lawsuit; generally other bad acts are not admissible bc the prejudice outweighs the probative value of the fact.
That said, if the civil suit stems from the criminal conviction, he is liable “per se”. The reason is simple really; if he is guilty “beyond... View More

answered on Aug 4, 2018
It depends; the law of evidence on this is straightforward and simple though.
If the probative value of the previous crime outweighs the potential prejudice to the defendant, then absent a gag order, it is in. If the judge finds the evidence to be to prejudicial it will be out.

Well, first off, just because Something is written doesn’t necessarily make it by then… In fact, in most cases oral contracts are just as legally binding as written ones. In both cases, however, if a “material term of the contract” is breached, and no harm will be bestowed if the contract... View More
