you are posting this on a Criminal site.
if criminal the DA would be representing your interests if you could prove theft.
you should make appts with civil litigators........however, very few would handle this matter pro bono.
you might be more successful with Legal Aid or Aish Hatorah

I would report to Dept of Consumer Affairs.........and if they don't handle this, find out who controls licensing of car auctions.

the correct answer is IT Depends
more info is needed.
did the police see it? cited? citizen report it?
was it accidental or could there be an argument it was intentional?
any damages?
driving record?
answered on Mar 27, 2023
a lot of facts go into determining a sentence......
the courthouse?; the judge?; the DA?; past record?; on probation? who is the D atty?
the number you gave does not make sense.

i am assuming you could not find a WC lawyer...if you are by yourself.
That often means there is a problem with the case.
You are asking this on a criminal site and this is a WC issue, not crim.

Strict liability refers to INTENT...........did the D have the Mens Rea/Intent.
usually the crime is so serious that the DA does not have to prove intent.....just that the D did it.

i think this is going to be an issue best handled by a family law attorney for the Domestic Violence Restraining Order.
you should make an appt with another lawyer to review the facts and determine if s/he would handle on a contingency or if you would have to pay a retainer.

We have his license plate. We were exiting the highway and this pick up truck crossed the gore (he went off-roading pretty much) and cut us off.

within 5 days you must file an answer and send to the court and other side, at least 2 days before the hearing.
if this is criminal, be sure you have court appt'd counsel if you have not retained a lawyer.
there is no appointed lawyer for family law.

Can the prosecutor use character evidence referring to the defendant's lies in the past to impeach the credibility of his testimony, when the defendant is being accused of premeditated, first-degree murder and the defense is trying to prove that the crime was committed by accident?
answered on Mar 25, 2023
Because the D did something bad in the past, is not enough to prove the D did the illegal act this time.
However, IF the D takes the stand to testify, then s/he is putting their credibility on the line. Then Prior Bad Acts can be introduced...unless the judge upholds an objection on... View More

answered on Mar 24, 2023
i would go to the police station that rolled on the scene and inquire.
then you can contact the DA's ofc to see if there was a filing.
when you get the name you can check on the court calendar for the minutes to follow the case.

no lawyer can intelligently evaluate your case with little information.
you should contact another lawyer to sub in. You can inquire of LOCAL lawyers on this site.
If the case has any value the 2 lawyers would share the fee.
answered on Mar 22, 2023
i don't think any of us can address this intelligently without a lot more info.
did you have a lawyer? if so present your question to the lawyer.
if not, make an appt with a local family law attorney.

When a lawyer "bows out" it is usually an indication that the case either no longer appears to have value; it will cost to much to go to trial, and there will be nothing left for the client ...or there is a challenge dealing with the client.
Remember, you are asking a lawyer to... View More
