Generally, any requirement that one exhaust administrative remedies would not be satisfied by a motion filed in the court proceeding. The court is not an administrative body. Such a requirement probably doesn't apply in any event.

Not correct, strictly speaking. A lawyer is someone who is learned in the law. That would include someone who has a law degree. An attorney, on the other hand, is someone who is licensed to practice law in a particular state, and for that the person has to have passed a bar examination.

I live in Florida. Can I record the phone conversation with multiple customer service representative (within the same single call) of a large bank, if prior to speaking with customer service I receive a notice that "This call will be monitored and recorded"?

answered on Dec 2, 2023
Re-posting answer to fix typo -
Yes, because the other party to the call is asking your consent to have it be a recorded call (by making recording a condition of being able to speak to that party). But if you plan to use the recording for anything other than your own private listening, you... View More

Will I get introuble if I test positive for alcohol in my system?

answered on Nov 27, 2023
The phrase "not to possess intoxicants to excess" doesn't make much sense. If you possess alcohol but don't drink it, what would be excessive? I think it means that you should not CONSUME intoxicants to excess.
Assuming you are on probation, you probably could be... View More

Sorry to hear about your ordeal. Your inquiry is vague as to when the abuses occurred. You mention, without relating any facts about timing, the phrase "tolling statute of limitations", which is the stopping of the clock for the time counting towards the limitations period, under... View More
And they don't give an answer, isn't it safe to say that you couldn't have knowingly and intelligently waived your rights because you didn't know you could have an attorney for free if you couldn't pay for one? Further, doesn't it also mean you didn't understand your warning in simplified form

answered on Nov 25, 2023
If you "waived your rights", the question boils down to this: "what was the result?".
- Did you make an incriminating statement?
- Did you enter a plea without the advice of an attorney?
If you can prove that you didn't understand the... View More
I plead no contest, and took the plea deal of time served (18 days).

Sorry to hear about your ordeal. It is possible to file a motion to withdraw a plea due to the plea being involuntary because of mental incompetence. However, due to the number of years going by and the (I assume) availability of the police report at all times, I believe you'd be facing very... View More

Don't necessarily believe what the FedEx driver told you about a search warrant. It's really none of her business. But if Homeland Security does get a judge to issue a warrant, simply tell them, as you indicate, that you don't have the package. Be ready for them to search your premises.

In Florida, if you are under 18, your ability to influence criminal charges, especially those filed by someone else, like your mother, is limited. Since you're 17, you're considered a minor, and typically, the decision to pursue or drop charges in a criminal case is up to the prosecutor,... View More
Aggravated kidnapping is what was done to me and my brother on the property of a night club. If the accuser is found guilty, can I file a lawsuit against the club owner?

answered on Nov 17, 2023
You would have to show that the statute of limitations doesn't apply. What do you mean by indicating that you just found out about the kidnapping? Perhaps you might have a case, of you can prove that the owner was negligent, and that the negligence caused injury to you.
