I was maliciously prosecuted for a crime I did not commit. A jury found me not guilty. No evidence or witnesses. Prosecutor and judge and catholic church just get away with it ? Is there any place to file complaints ?

You need to speak to a civil rights attorney. In general, prosecutors have statutory immunity from law suits.
Good luck.

If you don't care about owning a gun and you two are no longer together, then you might not want to fight the order. The unlawful sex with a minor is pretty old. Since she was 17, in general it is not as big an issue as when they are younger. (I AM NOT SAYING IT IS OKAY TO HAVE SEX WITH AN... View More

Don't sign anything that talks about what you did. Don't talk to them either. Contact a local employment! attorney.

Mr. Dimas
Parole times have changed in the last few years. If you plead guilty in 2012, then your plea form likely had a parole term "length." See if you can get a copy of it and see if your old attorney can help. However, it is probably better to contact the local public... View More
I was not on parole . They searched my vehicle. Can what they find be admissible ? Or is it a violation of the 4th?
answered on Jan 12, 2021
I have seen many cases like yours. It is very complicated because the answer depends upon who made the mistake: the cops, the courts, or some other agency.
If there is no other legal justification, then the search should be thrown out.
Good luck!
Los Angeles - Foltz Criminal Justice Center: The judge told me to give Notice to the DA of an upcoming Feb hearing.

You give the da and the court the identical paperwork.

The District Attorney's Office is the "People." The court website has a proof of service form that you can download and fill out.
Good Luck.
BTW Pro Per is a REALLY bad idea!
I have a co denfend he got arrested that charger him for the same case but I got arrested 3 week later what can I do
answered on Jan 11, 2021
Talk to your local attorney.
In general, they do not need to arrest you or find you in the car, in order to charge you with a carjacking. However, whether they can prove it is another matter.
Good luck!
Judge: Defense counsel are you going to be mentioning anything about a prior hung jury? DC: I mean your honor and I may say this is not exactly what my client...

The Prosecutor / DIstrict Attorney lied throughout the document - Motion in Limine. I wondered if the jury gets to view that document.
When I was in elementary school, I stole some of my friends Pokémon cards and no one ever knew. If it were to come out years later now as an adult. Can I still be prosecuted and would I be tried as a juvenile or an adult. Also would the discovery rule apply to this?

Yes. This is the standard way that these things work. If you do your part, the case never sees the inside of a courthouse. If not, they can get a warrant for your arrest.
P.S. In the future, don't post information like this on a public forum!
Good luck!

Yes, first call the attorney who helped you in the first place. If you didn't have one, then call the local (California) public defender's office and see if they will help. If not, call some local private attorneys who might do it for a little $.
Good luck!
Administrative hearing found her guilty of denying chemical test even though she did not refuse urinalysis. PD stated "they were not set up for that"

No court date set by DA

In general, no. The PD cannot handle DMV hearings, at least typically they don't. The DMV rules based on the police reports. It looks like

1) Don't post details like this on an open website.
2) talk to the attorney that represented you.
3) You have 30 days after a misdemeanor and 60 days after a felony sentencing to file an appeal.
4) odds are really bad that you will be successful in withdrawing your plea.
5) good luck.

Put yourself on calendar ASAP. You can sign up for a public defender on the court date or hire an attorney before the court date. Talk to a bail bond company if it is a warrant for a felony.
Good luck.

I filed fraud with DMV and the cars are on freeze. I also filed police report they said file civil. This is fraud and is a crime. My husband had no will. Im hearing I need a demand letter.

1st degree robbery is 3, 4, or 6 years. Burglary is 2, 4, or 6 years. They are probably charged in the alternative, but if not, the max is 7 years 4 months.

It is fraud, likely felony theft, and possibly perjury. Talk to an attorney fast. Pay the rest of the loan off immediately if possible.
