For the purposes of a DMV hearing to determine if my BAC was 0.080 or greater, my two readings (Intoxilyzer 8000) were 0.080 (equal to) and 0.077 (less than). Is the administrative judge required to use the lower, average or higher value in that determination?

is trespassing a moving violation? it seemed like if they were watching me or the area, cause there were 3 sheriffs involved in the stop.
I agree that this is a very weak reason to be pulled over and isn’t the typically traffic violation that allows a the police to conduct a traffic stop. However, someone can still tresspass while in a vehicle so I would need to know more about what actually happened. Feel free to reach out for a... Read more »
Good questions. Legally the answer is pretty vague as the extradition allows the removal to another state. Typically, if someone is already in custody they will finish their sentence and then be extradited to the new state to face the other charges. If you have more questions or are worried about...

violent crime. In October she developed breast cancer and after eight months has not been started on therapy, she is presently at stage 3a. In similar cases as dire as this how can she get a earlier release or furlough to receive life saving care. her release date is Feb. 2020.
My best recommendation is to contact Middle Ground Prison Reform at middlegroundprisonreform@msn.com. They handle these kind of issues on a daily basis and are former judges.
The intention is to know where the problem is (we already know that he has a problem) and try to attend to it.
One of the best ways to see if someone has a warrant is to contact the Department of Public Safety at 602-223-2233. They will ask for your name and date of birth in order to look up if you have a warrant and will be able to tell you right then and there.

The answer is fairly simple however the process can be complicated. Essentially, you have to contact the MVD and have them provide you a copy of your driving record.

My son is 15 He was released on intense probation to his father and now his father is saying he can’t live with me until he is off probation in a year. I wanted to know what my rights are. His dad has been gone for almost 2 years and just came back when my son got arrested.
You will need to check the Intensive Probation Order (IPO). The IPO is an order from the judge (or probation) that allows him to stay somewhere. This is not a decision from the father. You may be able to contact the judge or probation officer to have them allow your son to stay with you.
I believe I understand what you are asking but if not, you may have to contact us directly for a better answer.
