My dog was running on our land and picked up by someone. The person then decided to rehome and request people to come get him in less than 24hrs. Is that legal?
Can they legally keep your dog? Unlikely. Your remedy is to call the police, who will likely tell you it is a "civil matter." Your remedy is to then bring a small claim against the person holding the dog for the return of the dog.
My daughter was recently detained while in North Dakota. I have spoke to the police and they claim tgey received a anonymous tip of a possible party because of cars in the driveway. 4 police officers hid in the woods for 2 hours and claim they saw what appeared to be someone underage drinking...

Your first mistake is speaking to the police without a lawyer - it's a no-win game. Your daughter need a lawyer.
We live in a mobile home community. Park manager’s brother lives next door.

If the lack of criminal history is a condition of the leasing contract that you relied upon, you could potentially sue the trailer park.

Any criminal defense attorney licensed here in North Dakota can help.
Then on my first court appearance says he not absolutely sure it was me he seen driving. Why am I still having to go to court for this
When you walk into the courtroom, the odds are often stacked against you. The answer here is likely that you need an attorney. The place to prove or disprove a claim is trail, not the first appearance.
Should I have to finish my original sentence or is the court allowed to throw out the first sentence except for the fines and re sentence me for the same crimes??
Revocation on a charge can certainly occur due to a conviction on a new charge. However, a criminal defense lawyer would usually negotiate out a deal on the revocation that runs along with the new charge. Revocation is not required to be up to the original maximum but certainly can be.
My ex and I broke up in September of 2019. 2 months later he asked to take our dog from me and I said no because he did not have his own place to live yet. A few months later he asked if a friend could come take him from me to take to my ex, I said no because I was not comfortable with someone else... Read more »
Costly fight over a dog? That's a laugh. Dogs are deemed property. Because that dog is probably worth a couple hundred dollars (at most) in the eyes of the state, the most expensive thing he could likely due is bring you to small claims court or file another civil case.
My own blood cousin says i had naked pictures of her kids in my phone.

You may be looking for 14-07-11 and 14-07-11 of the North Dakota Century Code. But the better answer is that you need an attorney to help you file for a divorce. Divorce can be quick and relatively painless if settled by way of agreement or collaborative family law.
The short answer: call your bank (for mortgage restrictions), call your city (for rental permits).
This question is way too vague. Can you embezzle from a company holding money that belongs to you and is owned 100% by you? Very unlikely.

If you suffered an actual injury, sure you can sue. But you will need to be able to prove that injury. Medical records are where you start.

Call police to report
I believe that the case against me is questionable as they used "plain sight" as reason to pull me over after they searched my vehicle in my absence. Unlit parking lot, tinted windows, an hour and a half after sunset. But for the life of me I cant find a clear definition of what... Read more »
I might suggest that you quickly retain an attorney. The odds of being able to successfully argue the plain view doctrine on your own are slim.
I decided to help this girl and gave her a very deep slash on the price. The main reason I gave her such a price was that it would help her and it would honor my wife as i think she would approve, I had to speed up the sell and I asked her for $600 down and $400 to come and they agreed and I told...

Sounds civil
Hypothetical question. Was told by my brother and sister in law it would be my fault. My dog is a Sheltie and is very expressive before taking action also has not bitten anyone. I am concerned with how kids act around dogs and dont listen very well that I will have to put my dog, who is my ESD for... Read more »
No attorney can predict the outcome of a case with accuracy. With that being said, if you knew these kids were coming towards your dog and the dog bites them, it sounds like you are the one most likely to lose in that situation because you already knew what was going to happen.

2 months later her owner changed their mind and wants her back- can she legally come and take the dog since she didn't even look for it for over 2 months ? Does she need to pay me for the Vet Bills I had to pay to get the dog fixed and vaccinated?
Dogs are property, it could likely be argued that she relinquished the property. Potential small claims court case.
