While reading this law I noticed “ Texas’s firearm prohibition generally does not apply to people convicted of violent assaults against a current or former dating partner, unless the defendant has been married or... Read more »
The quoted text isn't the law. Rather, it is someone's interpretation of the law, and it is incomplete because the law also includes people who are parents of the same child regardless of marriage or dating history.
In addition to Texas law, you need to be 100% certain that you... Read more »

Due to my genetic make up it will mean sure death as an Aboriginal American I have no need for the vaccine. As well as I have even stronger religious belief against it please help!
There is no law that requires any person to be vaccinated. It is a matter of free choice. Private and government employers may, however, impose a condition of employment that may require vaccination. If your employer has imposed such a requirement, then you should inquire as to whether they have... Read more »

You need to post this to Texas lawyers. California licensed attorneys are not generally licensed to practice law in the state of Texas. You posted this to California lawyers, not to Texas lawyers. You should re-post this to Texas lawyers instead.
If it's an exhibit, that means that some pleading refers to it for some evidentiary purpose. If you don't attach it - to the pleading, declararation, etc., - how will the court see the exhibit to which you are referring?
You did not ask a question, but I assume your question is, "Can I make a claim?". Probationary termination cases are tough, since the employer needs no reason whatsoever to terminate, but at the same time, the your race, sex, age, national origin, etc. cannot legally be the reason for...

In order to sue a police officer you have to usually prove that somebody has successfully sued over an extremely similar issue in the past. Which is difficult because it means the first person to sue over a unique issue will usually not recover any money.
Did this happen in Arkansas or Oklahoma?

The term is from 12/12/2019 to 12/31/2020. First months rent was prorated since we moved in mid month. He also verbally told the landlord last week that he is moving out on 12/11. Per our lease, he does have to pay his portion of rent for the entire month of December, correct? And is he required to... Read more »
In Virginia, the terms and conditions of the written lease will control whether your husband has the right to terminate the lease based on an oral notification to the landlord. Also, the terms and the conditions of the lease will control who has the rights to the return of the security deposit.
I gave consent to search my vehicle but they just took my purse from me as I was stepping outta my car & without asking or anything, proceeded to search it, which led to a drug charge. But I feel as if they violated my rights.
If they did not have probable cause to search the vehicle or your purse, but you gave consent to search the car, there may be an issue with consent to search your purse. Contact a local defense attorney to discuss the case in more detail.
The lies were proven in court and judge told her to return the child and she did not. She hid my child causing her to not be able to attend school, I thought my child might be dead.

First off, I am so sorry you're experiencing this.
Now, unfortunately, what you've written here is a bit confusing and inconsistent. On one hand, you're saying that there was a formal contempt order from the court, but on the other hand you're saying the same judge... Read more »
Wondering if its legal to obtain, and carry, at 18 or under 21 considering, antique firearms are not recognized as actual firearms on the federal level. Want to make sure this is the case in CO as well as I can't find any laws excluding or including such firearms in colorado law.
The answer to your question is: it depends. It depends on what "antique" gun means. Someone would need more information as to the style and structure of the gun to see if it meets the legal definition requirements for a "handgun." In Colorado, any person under age 18 may not... Read more »

I dont see any explicit ban on stinger whips. Nor do i see a license permit to carry one. You may want to consult an attorney before carrying.

He burns demolished houses, tires, and anything that will burn. The smoke cloud is immense, and always blows all over the neighborhood. I can't breathe inside my own home.
My suggestion would be to contact your local alderman (if you live in the City of Chicago) or your local municipal government. I would be fairly sure that what your neighbor is doing, burning material putting off noxious odors, is in violation of local, municipal, and state law.
