I e-filed an appearance for my own behalf. I was arrested on my 3rd marijuana possession in Indiana; class A misdemeanor. I filed 2 motions; one for stand-by counsel and the other to have my bond returned to pay for my defense. The bond request was denied but there is a hearing set for the... Read more »
Yes. Just make sure to tell the prosecutor you are pro se.
No. They need a search warrant unless you consent to the search.
Everyone in each building got a note saying they hold the right to prohibit the smoking of marijuana even though it is legal now. Is this correct?
That is correct. Landlords can lawfully prohibit the smoking of marijuana on their property and in their rental units. The same goes for public housing.
They want to live with me can I still get custody even though I smoke Weed
Now is an excellent time for you to get a medical marijuana card. There are a variety of physicians out there who can get you one, and if you are using marijuana for medical purposes then that cannot be used as the sole reason to deny you custody. R.C. 3796.24 (2 - 3). Let me know if you'd like... Read more »
Is it illegal for an employer to refuse to hire someone due to smoking marijuana even if they have a medical marijuana card? The company is saying they have a strict "drug free policy" and cannot excuse marijuana from the drug screening even if a medical card is provided. The type of job being... Read more »
The employer is entitled to set requirements for the job. If qualifying in a drug free environment is one of the requirements, then you right (in Florida) to use medical marijuana does not exempt you from that requirement. For example, the employer can require that no person working can take cold... Read more »

If so what language should i use or say to have that piece of evidence thrown out
Without seeing the statement itself it's impossible to say for sure but this certainly appears to be a simple typographical error. That would not be grounds for dismissal.
Because I knew I had a seizure.A deputy then put me in cuffs and took me to the hospital to see if a doctor could tell if I had a seizure the dr could not verify if I had one then the officer had me do blood test. I just received papers saying I have to go to court in March for a class c... Read more »
You should consult with an experienced criminal defense attorney and do not talk to anyone about this other than your attorney. At this point it is illegal to have marijuana metabolite in your body, however, there is legislation that may change that in Indiana.
I’ve used thc and cps has closed my case after successfully passing random drug screens. I failed the first one but cps still closed the case. How likely is it for I, the mother to lose custody of my 2 year old child? Also, I have proof (pictures and messages of him advertising) of the father... Read more »
From your question it seems as if there is no current court case. If that is the case, then you are probably fine. If here is a court action currently lodged with the court, then you need to revise your question and add additional detail to allow attorneys to better respond. Good Luck!
Will I be charged as an adult or minor? This is my 3rd posession charge.
If the date of offense was before you turned 18, then the case will be in juvenile court. You should definitely seek counsel still however b/c they can sentence you as an adult if you are 18 b/c technically you cannot take advantage of juvenile services. Also it is a third offense so the court... Read more »
1st time offender no priors . Like I said she's not on our lease but she does live here but she does also have that other address somewhere else she just stays with us mom and dad thank you i guess im asking if i can be evicted?
I doubt it -- but I suppose you should look to the terms of your lease (instead of the DUI laws).
Best of luck to you, and her. If your daughter needs some assistance with her DUI case -- and there are legal traps for the unwary! -- feel free to have her contact me offsite.
Do you fully accept your curent life situation?
Something may have gotten left off your question when you posted. You could try uploading again if there were additional elements to your question. Good luck

You cannot "take" a trademark from the mark owner if it is still being used in commerce as a source identifier, regardless of the federal registration status. Applying for and being allowed a federal registration does not automatically prohibit a mark owner from opposing registration, petitioning... Read more »
More than likely if you are convicted of the shoplifting, you will also be convicted of your marijuana charge. One of your conditions of the first offender is good, law-abiding behavior so a new conviction is a violation of that. You should consult with your prior attorney or a new who can advise...

Also can the cop search my trunk which is considered a lock compartment without a warrant?
Yes, plain smell is an exception to the search warrant requirement. However, that does not mean that the underlying motor vehicle stop and subsequent search was valid. You should consult with an attorney to discuss the facts of your case and possible motion to suppress.
