If he signed a waiver of extradition, Kansas should have ten (10) days to come get him. They can request an extension, but generally those are only permitted in extreme circumstances. If he has not signed a waiver or waived in front of a judge, then it may be longer.
He filed for paternity and custody after I filed a protective order. He is not on the birth certificate. I moved and did not know he filed. He now has criminal charges pending for domestic violence. Is the paternity case dropped? Or will I be served for that when I receive the subpoena to testify... Read more »

stricken generally means that any hearing that was scheduled to occur has been cancelled for now. It appears that he was required to serve you with notice of the hearing and failed to do so; therefore, the court would not conduct the hearing. The hearing could be reset, but he will have to take... Read more »

The answer to the question you ask varies depending on what is meant by the "charge I was given" and "repealed." If you were previously convicted and sentenced (or previously plead guilty to an offense and your sentencing was deferred) for a felony, you may qualify to get that... Read more »
It say i have execited a waiver of objection to appointment of special administrator and waiver will be filed contemporaneously herein what dose this mean

It appears that a probate case has been (or is about to be) filed to allow your father's estate to be handled through probate, and your aunt is requesting that the Court appoint her as Special Administrator (giving her certain powers under the law to act on behalf of the estate). It sounds... Read more »

While both a fine and jail/prison time are punishments for the crime, there are other options that may also be available: such as the court deferring your sentencing for a period of years (does not result in a conviction, the case gets dismissed, and the court records expunged if you successfully...

If it's not an 85% crime or if it is but at the time of sentencing they said it was not do I have action to get this sentence off of me

Yes. Section 843.5(c) is a crime against a child under Section 843.5, so it is an 85% crime. I can also tell you that I am very familiar with the Department of Corrections receiving sentencing paperwork indicating a crime is not 85% when in fact it is, and the court ordering a sentence to not be...

I left my name I would not do anything to break the law! I have never broken the law in my life. Honorably discharged veteran, but i could see... Read more »

Are you asking this just based on concerns you have after thinking about what you said or have you been contacted by law enforcement or threatened with prosecution as a result of your call?

NJT is likely short for non-jury trial. Assuming that is correct, what it means is that the case set for a trial before a judge only, where the judge will not only decide the law but also rule on the facts, weigh credibility of witnesses, etc. From what you provided, there is no indication that a...

I just want to add to Mr. Boeheim's response. A cash bond is generally meant to refer to a defendant, family, or friends depositing cash with the court clerk to secure the defendant's appearance during the case. However, there are bondsman that are "cash bondsman" who post cash... Read more »
I didn't want him arrested, there was no asphyxia as I could still breathe. There is no bruising. I don't want to press charges. I want him released, but I don't know what to do to make that happen.

First, your husband needs an attorney. The charge is a serious one. Once the case has been submitted to the DA by the police, the decision on whether to proceed and how to do so rests with the prosecutor. You may no longer wish for the prosecutor to proceed (whether through a declination of charges... Read more »
I have a lawfully purchased beer license. Oklahoma voted in new beer laws. The law was silent on the licenses that were purchased prior to the change in law but continued to be lawful. As a result my licenses were seized and now the law says my license was transferred to a new license which... Read more »

If it is alleged you violated the law by not having the appropriate license, you will benefit greatly by contacting an attorney who can evaluate your situation against the law before and after the 2018 amendments.
The 2018 laws made it clear that upon the effective date of said law all... Read more »

You ask a few questions here that I am going to try to answer.
An individual currently on probation for a felony is not likely going to qualify for any alcohol/liquor license in the State of Oklahoma. The laws with regard to eligibility for alcohol licenses make individuals convicted of a... Read more »

OTC means the Oklahoma Tax Commission. Frequently court clerks will send notice to the OTC to intercept state income tax refunds for defendants with past due court costs. I suspect, but cannot be certain, the message you are asking about has something to do with that.
No warrant for the contents of said mobile device was presented at time of confiscation or any time after.

The question you pose is one that requires an analysis under the Fourth Amendment with the detailed facts of your encounter with the police. Unfortunately, the detailed factual account that is needed should not be communicated over this forum. Because you were arrested on an alleged drug charge, I... Read more »

The customer then gives a credit card and it has insufficent funds this has gone on for weeks, now the customer is giving excuses one after the other please contact me and see if you can help, the truck driver and out of state can I file federal charges against them.

No, you cannot file federal charges against him. The US Attorney decides what criminal charges to pursue in federal court and the District Attorney or Oklahoma Attorney General decides what criminal charges to pursue in state court. You can report the matter to the police. The police may... Read more »
She was 11 at the time reported, and the ADA told me I could view/copy the case file when the offended was sentenced. It’s over now and I emailed the ADA about wanting copies of the case (never heard back) including the forensic interview of my daughter. I feel like I as her mom have rights to... Read more »

As the parent of the victim, I would suggest you start by talking to the District Attorney, the supervisor of the ADA, or even the victim witness coordinator at the DA's office. Some of the types of documents you identify are difficult for the public to gain access to - especially if the case... Read more »
My uncle was picked up on a trafficking charge and made a plea agreement with the prosecutor but no papers have been signed and he has not been sentenced but the feds picked him up from county jail and moved him.

Yes. If the federal government intends to prosecute him, they can move him to where the US Marshal Service houses federal detainees. Then, the State generally needs to wait until the feds are finished before getting him back to finish his state case, but that is not always the case.
I know as of November 1st domestic abuse by strangulation will be considered a violent charge in oklahoma. He is a repeat offender of assault on me. Will he now have to serve his 85% of time since he is in prison now and will still be when the law comes in affect?

Two things. Not all violent crimes are crimes subject to the list of crimes in which inmates must serve 85% of their sentence before being eligible for release. In this situation, the Legislature amended the list of violent crimes to include several domestic abuse crimes; however, those same... Read more »

You can be charged if the State believes there is probable cause to believe that you committed the crime it has charged you with. It very well could be that no crime was committed or they have the wrong person; that is something that can be determined when reviewing the discovery. With that said,... Read more »
