No question is posed. I see no criminal charges filed. If the issue is reparations you need to see a civil attorney about a lawsuit. If charges were filed I need information on those charges and where in the court process the case is currently.

This women has caused A LOT of problems for tenants, multiple have told me. She is clearly unfit to live in the complex, I believe due to her mental state. This might not be totally her fault but she is still causing problems. Can she be demanded to be put in a home?
If so by what law?
answered on Jan 27, 2017
No, assuming that the court you mean is a criminal court. Crimes are committed against the state, and the victim is a witness. The prosecutor (for the state) has the discretion to ask for the case to be dismissed and the victim's opinion may be considered, but there is no law that requires it.
He was arrested on new charges and a 72 hour hold. She may not make it through the night.

If a burglary crime commited and the cops came and got your dna within a year but havent pressed charges after 3 years?
Can they still charge you for the crime even though the 3 years of statue of limitations is past?
answered on Dec 28, 2016

Well if you don't show up you will have a warrant. You need to call and set the case for a warrant review with the clerk as quickly as possible before you are arrested.
I was convicted of burglary my co-def. was in a relationship with the victim in this case. if she can beat this case, can I get my conviction reversed? there are a lot of detail not mentioned. I would have to write a novel. I can provide more info. at request.
answered on Dec 11, 2016
Once convicted your chances are miniscule of reversing it. Get in touch with a good appellate attorney for details.
answered on Dec 10, 2016
You have to be convicted of the crime. If you are just charged the judge may enter restrictions on bail but not likely. If you are convicted, most crimes have it to where you can't possess a firearm under federal law.
