Are they State Charges? Disorderly less likely to be dropped.. Battery requires a touching. If Victim says no touching, who does say so? Have the criminal complaint reviewed by an attorney. It will be worth it.

This does not appear to be a criminal or civil rights question. Does management know of your presence for care? Make sure your state status and length of visit complies with their rules. Then when a complaint is made by a neighbor they will be told they are wrong and your presence is allowed.... View More

License will probably be revoked by the DMV in 30 days from test notice of over .02 by police if you don't ask for an administrative hearing within 10 or 13 days depending. Was the stop/arrest valid? Was the test accurate? a skilled attorney on these questions can help.

On the limited information here the answer is yes. And it will be a felony or misdemeanor depending on what the original bail jumping charge is (and based therefore on the original crime charged and dismissed.). Conviction depends on satisfying each of the required elements to beyond a reasonable... View More

Non-Traffic Ordinance Violation Cases (FO). Motor vehicle records are a little different and the answere is more complex.. Depends on where Uber is looking. Ask Uber what you can do to assure them that you are... View More

Yes, the 17 year old is an adult for criminal court and the charge could be disorderly conduct, battery, and felony child abuse.

Your suspicions are correct and it should be reported. If not, who is to protect the 9 year old?

You raise an interesting question--wether such a doll could be considered kiddie porn. If so possessing it would be unlawful. Maybe talk to a counselor on what your issues are--realistically, most guys want the sizzle without the effort to make themselves attractive, or they expect someone way... View More

I can only answer for Wisconsin. Theft is a crime and the amount affects whether it is a misdemeanor or a felony. The answer is yes as the state District Attorney is not a party to the civil suit and can file a Criminal Complaint. The Civil Judgment does not by itself block a criminal... View More

There is noting wrong with you two dating each other and having physical contact with each other. What you do need to be aware of is that since you are the age of majority (18) and your significant other is still a minor, it is against the law to have any sexual relations with them until they reach...

A presentence investigation could reveal facts about the defendant that normally would not get before the judge prior to sentencing. It often will increase fairness in the system, but not always. The defendant may have his/her own psi done by the defenses choice. It really gives the judge more... View More

A Wisconsin lawyer needs to answer that for you. But from an employment lawyers perspective age is irrelevant. Any type of unwanted or unwelcome conduct if pervasive or severe is illegal. Once a manager or employer knows they have a duty to act so on this forum age is irrelevant for hostile... View More

Do you know whether the court cancelled the warrant? That is usually the case, of course. You should check the court file to make sure that the warrant was properly cancelled. If so, the arrest would be clearly unlawful--as opposed to accident because the clerk's office made a mistake. You may... View More

You should file a petition for the return of property with the local circuit court. There is no filing fee for this type of action.

Police officers do not charge crimes, prosecuting attorneys do. Police officers do make criminal referrals to prosecuting attorneys. So I assume that is what you mean: the police officer is threatening to make a criminal referral unless you inform. And, yes, a police officer can do that.

The short answer is yes. But you will need a permit if you want to conceal it. I should add that I am unaware of any current permit procedure for knifes. So you can only openly carry it at present. You also have to avoid certain places, like schools.

I don't know, but I'm guessing he is responsible whether he signs or not. His signature may only mean he's been advised what they are, which the probation officer can attest even if he doesn't sign. I'm also thinking if he doesn't agree with the terms of probation,... View More

Under the US Constitution, a hung jury does not preclude retrial on all counts. If lesser charges were available in the first trial, and if the statute of limitations (for lesser charges) has not passed, then theoretically the prosecutor could add lesser charges. A state statute or court rule could... View More
