Filed a motion to recall and reschedule court date and motion was denied. What do i do next?
answered on Oct 24, 2022
You should hire an attorney to file a motion to recall the warrant. It is more likely to be granted if filed by an attorney since it shows you are serious about the case. Make sure you get your license reinstated as well.

You should hire an attorney to file a motion to recall the warrant. These motions are usually granted if filed by an attorney. You also need a certified copy of your complete driving record to show your license was valid on the date of the incident. You can get this from the MVA online or in person.
He wants to get the dog when he has a stable place to live. How long can he leave her with me until I can assume ownership. I have paid for all her food and provided all her care.

Dogs are considered personal property under Maryland law. The owner of the dog is the person that purchased the dog. Personal property can be abandoned, but in this case, he has indicated that he intends to retrieve the dog which indicates he is not abandoning the dog.
As the owner of the... View More

Yes, this is illegal. Many mailboxes are owned by the United States Postal Service. You no longer have a right to access the mailbox.

All attorneys set their own fees. You would need to inquire to different lawyers what their fees would be. You should be aware that an appeal (Petition for Judicial Review) is on the record and the decision will be affirmed if there was substantial evidence to support the decision.

You can file a lawsuit in small claims court for $5,000 or less. Make sure the store does business in Maryland and can be sued in Maryland. You will need the proper corporate name for the store. You can get the Complaint form for the lawsuit online or visit the courthouse.
The person keeps calling from a blocked number. I know who it is, but I don't answer to not engage with the person.

You can report the matter to the police. I do not know if they will do anything, but at least there will be a report of the incident.
I was rushing to park in DC by the National Building Museum for work, parking in a spot that was not clearly labeled as Handicapped,
as the meter with the handicap marker was broken with the zone # on the side, I paid online instead. Please advise if you can help me avoid payment of the $500 fine.

You should repost your question to DC lawyers by listing the location as Washington, D.C. Good luck to you.

Yes, these things can make difference on whether the State decides to prosecute and any defenses that you may have in the case. I suggest that you retain counsel to represent you given the nature of the charges.
I need to know so I know if I can legally own firearms or not and get my hql
answered on Feb 6, 2024
You would need to check the court file. You can go to the courthouse and find out. If it arose out of a domestic incident, it will be listed as a domestic assault and you will be disqualified from owning a HQL.

It depends on the conditions of probation. Typically, if a judge places you on unsupervised probation for a period of time, the judge is only concerned about traffic citations. You would need to review your paperwork.

It is not a Miranda violation to ask the Defendant to take a breathalyzer test. The DR-15 form is not the same as Miranda. However, Miranda rights are not required prior to the administration of a breath test.
Example - driving a car from Florida, where it has legal but dark tint, through a state like PA, where no addition tint is aloud.

Yes, you can be cited for a traffic citation. You must comply with the laws of the State in which you are driving.
I just want to know if I should just pay the ticket or if I have a case to defend since I did in fact renew my registration

You can request a trial and go to court. You can provide proof that you had the stickers, but did not put them on the car. It is still a violation, but the judge may cut you a break.
answered on Jan 21, 2024
You should report the matter to the police. This could be a scam. Do not pay any money.

If you received probation before judgment, it can be expunged. If you did not receive probation before judgment, it is not an offense that can be expunged at the present time.

You should not be charged for harboring a fugitive if you did not know he had a warrant. He should retain an attorney to represent him on the criminal charges or go to the Public Defender if he cannot afford private counsel.
