Are you talking about pick-up ranges on warrants? Often times, when someone has a warrant, there will be a pick-up range listed. For instance, a warrant out of Kent County might say "we'll pick up within 100 miles from Kent county. That range depends on what the warrant is for (e.g. what... View More

Hire an attorney in that state to help deal with this.

The frustration is understandable. I can tell you your boyfriend is not alone in his situation as many others - including parolees - have been or are still in the same position.

Just know that what most people think of as "speedy trial" is far more nuanced and complex. Just by... View More

What is your question? If you are aware of a PPO or have been served with one, you should act to respond appropriately to the allegations. If it's from out of state, you will likely need to hire an attorney in that state.

Assuming it's small court...no attorneys are allowed. You'll have a hearing - maybe with a judge / probably a magistrate or referee, depending on how that particular court is structured. From there, it will look a lot like what you may see on those judge TV shows (without the drama and... View More

You need to speak to an attorney that handles expungements, because it will depend on your complete criminal history. We handle these, or you can contact someone else that you find here.

Death certificates are administrative, and may show more than what an autopsy determines. It's reasonable to expect some lag time.

To render a competent opinion, any attorney will need to see the police report. A lot will depend on what the police believe happened, what your fiance's record is like, what other witnesses say, etc. He may raise self-defense as a trial issue.

How does any of this relate to what, presumably, is a case against you? The problem when people start saying "so-and-so committed perjury / lied / etc.", is that you have to prove it. No court is going to make a conclusion based on a bare-bones assertion that someone lied or some false... View More

Wow! Haven't seen one of those in awhile. The court would not have to dismiss it, because it sounds like it was charged at the time and just not addressed. However, I would imagine the prosecutor will be very interested in resolving this favorable and quickly.

Contact the jail. They will know what the bond is. There are basically three types of bonds: personal recognizance (basically a signature promising you'll show up to court), 10% bonds (you pay 10% of the total bond amount in cash or surety, and cash/surety (the entire amount needs to be place...

Best thing to do would be to go to the probate court. There should be an accounting filed, which would list everything.

You're not going to get the plea deal back. The time to accept the plea deal was before the jury sat down and was sworn in. Once a trial starts, you're in it for all the marbles.

Jury tampering is a separate issue, and will need to be addressed on appeal possibly. From the... View More

When a lawyer is in good standing, they deserve to be presumed to be zealous advocates for their client. What clients sometimes don't realize is that defending people does not include advancing unfounded theories, whether grounded in fact or law, or presenting false facts or statements. A... View More

The general rule is that you get time credit for one case at a time.

The standard is the same in a jury or bench trial: motions in limini - to exclude or restrict certain testimony - should be granted when the evidence is more prejudicial than probative. If you don't know what those two terms mean in the legal world, you absolutely should have an attorney, who... View More

Can they criminally charge you? Yes. Will they, with the child victim saying it didn't happen? Unlikely (assuming a forensic interview was conducted).

CPS investigations are civil in nature. While it all may appear similar, it is legally two different legal matters: civil and... View More

Wow! You might have something there. Worth a shot.

Best to face this head on. Otherwise, there will be a warrant for your arrest. And while the police likely won't come out with the SWAT team to arrest you on something like this, these sort of things often creep up and catch up with you when you can least afford to deal with it: you get pulled...

What is your question? Is he your current boyfriend? When accused of a crime, one of the most important rights you have is the right to remain silent. You probably need to exercise that right with your boyfriend and the police.
