You will probably need a TN attorney to get the Clerk and the Sheriff to execute a Levy against the firm's Bank Account. It would be necessary to know what Bank they use. There are Fees for each Levy. You apparently have a Judgment but now you have 10 years to collect.

Yes...You are on Probation so you have to abide by the Probation terms. Any violation can mean you could be incarcerated for the remainder of the Sentence. There should be some kind of Probation Order in your file at Court. Read it.

Assets in your name acquired before marriage are not marital property by statute. Those items cannot be garnished just by way of marriage; a judgment of any type would need to be against you for a creditor to garnish/levy the asset. If you have significant pre-marital assets, you would be wise to... Read more »

No. Some Parks may have specific vehicle restrictions, but they will not be limited to water crossings.

You probably need to look at all the current Judgments of Convictions, that is where the Sentences have not yet been served. It can be very confusing, and often mistakes are made how to compute effective Sentences. You need an attorney to do this, although each Prison has someone who computes... Read more »

You should probably call a lawyer specializing in car injuries. Ask your friends for a referral. I am sure at least some of them have been in car accidents and can recommend a good lawyer or two. Many injury lawyers will be happy to discuss your options and will give you an initial consultation for... Read more »

Usually a Bond Condition will prohibit interaction with the alleged victim.

Possible misdemeanor vandalism or littering. But it would not be worth the trouble of being a witness/victim in Court.
The property has changed since we viewed and made the offer. We do not want to take occupancy.

Need more info. But you would have to look at the terms of your purchase and sale agreement to determine your rights. Consult with your agent, or better, consult with an attorney to review the facts of your situation and your documents to help guide you.

Hire a competent attorney to turn you in to the Court when you are not on the Docket. The Judge may arrest you, set Bond, or you might dispose of it all at once. You will need cash that day. Once it is paid in full, take that Receipt back to IN DMV, etc.
Charges Felony C Especially Aggravated Stalking with a dashcam. Only went down street twice, don’t want them to just drop charges, I want them dismissed.
answered on Jun 16, 2022
Hire a competent attorney. You will not be able to represent yourself effectively for such Felony charges.
several small stashes of marijuana were found. My oldest received a simple possession charge. She does not partake in marijuana. If I took a negative hair follicle drug test to court and questioned the fact that the car is not hers, would the charge possibly be dropped?
answered on Jun 15, 2022
Daughter needs a competent attorney now to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. The hair test would be heresay without expert testimony, but is something to tell the DA. She does not want a drug conviction on her record. It sounds like a consent search also.

You will have to ask your father for a copy. He is the only one that has the authority to release the original or copy of his will, for as long as he is alive.
the car was supposed to be in both of our name but when I got arrested I realized the car lot only put it in his name, I was arrested and was put in jail for 3 days, I put the money dwn on the car and was paying the car note.
answered on Jun 14, 2022
What is your question? Hire a competent attorney now, because you are probably charged with a Felony and facing incarceration. Prepare for a vigorous Preliminary Hearing without fail.
answered on Jun 14, 2022
If a Conviction, no. You should have known this prior to pleading to a crime worse than many Felonies. But check your final disposition on the Warrant/Judgment. Consult with a competent attorney, not like the one you had, and find out about legal weapons.
