In Arizona, there is not a way to remove a DUI from your record. You can have your DUI record "Set Aside". The process isn't very fast but you have to complete probation then submit a "Set Aside" motion and wait for a judge to grant it. Someone judge will make you wait a... View More

Your question was slightly cut off at the end. I will need more details about what happened but it is likely that you were charged with forgery and/or fraud schemes. These are serious charges and you should not keep posting about them online and should contact a lawyer for a confidential... View More

Both are still being used and are valid according to the constitution. Both are serious offenses, seek assistance of a lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any charges like these and definitely do not speak with the police about it.

No. If something or someone on the warrant changes, then a judge must issue a new one. The officer cannot change the search warrant at their own discretion without a judge approving it.

This is correct, if the State is not pursuing jail time then you will not be appointed a public defender. This is a tough spot to be in because you are likely facing a misdemeanor charge where jail time is a very realistic outcome if the case goes to trial. At that point, you will definitely need a...

There is a good self defense claim here and your sister should pursue it. The downside to this case is it comes down to a he said, she said battle which might go against your sister. If the case is fairly new, the public defender may be trying to negotiate a settlement with the prosecutor which may... View More

The charges that your friend is facing are serious charges and are the typical charges we see with this kind of situation. The fact that there is an order of protection may help her case. The prosecutor will take into account the fact that there was an order of protection against husband, however,... View More
Felony 3 and also manslaughter when he was hit from behind and the girl perished. Currently my son is incarcerated. Does anyone do pro bono for criminal charges?

He will be appointed a public defender for each of these charges. Public defenders are really good when it comes to these charges because they are in court every day and work on these charges daily.
A public defender will be 100x's better than having someone represent him pro bono.
My son is on adult probation, and is getting out of a halfway house after being sober for 7 months. His probation officer discovered that there is a warrant for a class 2 shoplifting charge. He needs to address this on Monday. Possible outcomes?

The maximum punishment for a class 2 misdemeanor is 4 months of jail, 2 years of probation and $750 in fines.
There are many possible outcomes but above are the maximum punishments. That being said, if he is on probation then the punishment will be worse for the past offense since that... View More

I am reading in-between the lines here but it sounds like you are out of custody (not in jail) and there is a warrant out for your arrest. So, you are trying to see if you can just go to court, pay a fine, and be done with it all.
Quick answer: NO
The judge will not allow you to... View More

The quick answer is NO. As a passenger in the car, you are not required to show identification. There are exceptions to this where you do have to provide ID. For instance, if the officer is accusing you of a crime then you will have to provide ID.

These orders will never list a specific amount of feet because that would be unrealistic to enforce. These orders typically list the person, where they live and where work as places you are not allowed to contact/visit. It is your responsibility to be cognitive of where you are walking and where...
