I am not aware of any disability from running a TN non-profit entity. If you already formed it, then apparently the TN Secretary of State has no problem. Since it is from another State, noone here may know about it at this time, and who would want to remove you anyway? You might look into... Read more »

Each county handles these matters a little differently, but the best thing you can do is monitor OSCN/ODCR to see if a case ends up being filed and stay in touch with your bondsman. If charges do get filed, your bondsman can likely repost the bond and set you up with a new arraignment date (and... Read more »

You would need to retain a criminal defense attorney or public defender to assist you. You may be able to have your charges reduced or dismissed. It may make sense to take the case to trial and have the prosecutor prove their case or the charges dismissed. Alternatively, if it doesn't make... Read more »

I said they could do a weapons sweep. I guess they took that as they could do whatever. They found a notebook and they are charging me with identity theft. This happened in 2018. They are just now charging me. Can they do that without a warrant. They have no body cam or anything
answered on Feb 13, 2023
They can charge you with a felony anytime there is no statute of limitations. As far as the warrant issue, they would have to have a lawfully signed warren that they presented to you at the time. It sounds like there are definitely some legal issues with your case. You need to hire an experienced... Read more »

The answer to this question depends upon the particular facts and circumstances. Attorneys have some degree of immunity, but deliberately lying to law enforcement during the course of a criminal investigation could theoretically, under the right circumstances, constitute obstruction of Justice.

A fiduciary litigation attorney can help you attempt to get someone else appointed as conservator for your mother, and the conservator can sue your sister to get stolen money and assets back.

Each of the defendants has a different role in the events (i.e. intentional delays; fraudulent non-disclosure/concealment, breaches of fiduciary duties, breaches of contract, etc.) that took place to accomplish...
