First if you and your ex wife each have attorneys, it usually is the rule to communicate to her attorney and not directly. Second, Double Jeopardy is a criminal principle and doesn't apply here.
My ex wife has involved social services twice and police numerous times claiming false domestic violence accusations against my current girlfriend and I in front of the kids. I've been thoroughly investigated and nothing has been founded. She is now threatening to file a motion for a CFI and... Read more »
You can object to the appointment of a CFI, but with a high-conflict custody situation, the court is likely to appoint one. It is not up a therapist to decide.
My rights were terminated I appealed right away. My appeals lawyer found that the county terminated my rights without ICWA being informed. Lakota Sioux has found children eligible and now are taking over case. What's going to happen.
Unfortunately. I cannot answer in accordance with ABA Ethics Rule 4.2:
In representing a client, a lawyer shall not communicate about the subject of the representation with a person the lawyer knows to be represented by another lawyer in the matter, unless the lawyer has the consent of the... Read more »
Does it take colorado supreme court this long to decide usually
There is no set time limit for the Colorado Supreme Court to rule. Your wait of 9 months is not at all unusual. It could be several months before the Court renders a decision.
The district court mailed my final order to the wrong address (street address instead of my PO Box) and I still haven't received it! My 49 day deadline to appeal is in 4 days.
I urge you to call an appellate attorney. Depending on your ability to pay for an attorney, you may be able to hire one on an hourly or flat fee basis or you may qualify for a public defender or alterternative defense counsel (if it's a criminal case) or there may be some services out there to...

You cannot file it for him. Only he can file it or a lawyer.
Obviously, this is the last chance he will have to get review.
If yyou had to ask that question, you are ill equipped (in fact, not equipped at all) to have any ability in that area.
If he is going to have any... Read more »
The guy who actually took the life took a plea for second degree manslaughter. His buddy who goes to trial is convicted of accessory to the crime of murder. How is it possible to do that if there is no murder conviction?
Each case is independent of the other in terms of outcome. A plea of guilty by person who took a plea deal does not preclude a jury in a related case from finding the defendant guilty of the offense(s) charged in the related case. In other words, just because one person pled to manslaughter does... Read more »
Judgement and reverse the court order? Colorado law please? Possible statutes to look at?
The answer is "it depends." If there is a no contact order that order does NOT bind the victim from trying to contact the Defendant. This is a dangerous situation - if the person on the deferred judgement receives the contact and then responds to it - THEY would bein violation of the no... Read more »
I have a couple of criminal convictions. I'm seeing my name in the state data base doesn't match my birth certificate. Just curious as to if I can get them expunged from my record on a technicality
No, a difference in name will not allow you to seal a conviction. Many convictions in Colorado can be sealed, but the requirements always related to a certain number of years of conviction-free conduct (the number or years required to pass varies by the severity of the crime). If these are traffic... Read more »
Presuming I am understanding your question correctly, it looks like your attorney withdrew from your case in April? Appeals and motions can be filed whether you have an attorney or not. All the filing deadlines also apply whether you have an attorney or not.
Judge ordered my tenant out in 48 hrs. but she appealed. The judge set a later date for money damages so there was no money ordered when she appealed. She got bond waived due to formas pauperis .Tenant owes 3 months rent and $700 water bill and continues to live in my home for free with water being... Read more »
It is probably best to talk to an attorney before you proceed. The attorney might be able to expedite the appeal process too. If the judge did not award back rent it is probably because either it was not requested or the judge denied the request. If the judge denied the request, you will need to... Read more »
This landlord has followed my 16 yr old son to his friends house and is taking picture's and also has been in the house when she thought no one was home, but there was someone home. I don't want her in here until I am completely moved. She has no grounds for eviction and is trying to find... Read more »
You can always tell her no, the issue is whether you can enforce the no via the police or courts. The following and frequent entry into the apartment is very likely overstepping. If you can document this, it might be helpful for the eviction.
Generally yes, the landlord has a right to inspect the apartment for litigation and likely under general inspection rules under the lease. It is recommend that you heavily document the apartment before the landlord inspection and after the inspection. A combination of movies and still images is... Read more »
There is a remote possibility that you can file a federal lawsuit for the violation of a constitutional right. Assuming the termination hearing was conducted properly and there is nothing novel about your case, the likelihood of the surviving summary judgment (rejection before the full trial) is...

My wife (now ex) accused me of molesting my 3.5 yr old daughter. I never did that! Dept of Human services were called. My case was unfounded until an unlicensed clinical social worker got involved saying my daughter was saying she had "secrets" and making up things my daughter would never... Read more »
Contact an attorney to review your offer and the potential outcomes of accepting the offer.
Repeat question. See prior answer.
If you mean that your lawyer withdrew from your case, then you are appealing as a pro se (without representation) party. If you mean that the entire appeal was withdrawn, then you are not appealing your current conviction.
This was a landlord tennant issue. She worked by herself. I had already paid the retainer. We won our original case but the collection agency that was suing me appealed. I have little to no info about the status of our case, she was taking care of everything. The last time I was in court was about... Read more »
Contact the lawyer's office to see if an alternative counsel was designated. If not, request your file from the office. As a general rule you should receive a refund for any unused portion of retainer amount (excluding any costs/fees for services already rendered). There are procedures in... Read more »
Because I filed with the the court an intent to appeal. I don't seem to have an appeal though. Is it possible to ask the judge to suspend my sentence. I am a first time offender, and I did not do what I was found guilty of.
Talk to a lawyer about your options. You can ask the judge to suspend the sentence until your appeal is decided, but it is judicial discretion on whether to suspend your sentence. Also, be aware that there is a very short period of time to appeal a conviction; the notice of appeal can be as little... Read more »
