People try to kiss and handle my daughter all the time in public because they love babies and think she’s adorable I ask them to back away and they get really mad with me. If they try to come back anyways I sometimes have to shove them away. What’s the legal standing on people attempting to... Read more »
You'd have to check with an Indiana attorney on this, as to how the kiss or touch could be defined under state penal codes or civil laws. But your post remains open for four weeks. By textbook definition, one could argue that the conduct amounts to battery, but in terms of viability, it doesn't... Read more »

Have medical bills in collection now because of it as well as damaged property. I am being discriminated against by the local police and they are trying to give me the run around.
You can contact the prosecutors office to see if they will do a citizen intake to discuss the case with you.
I believe that it is a defamation of character
This is something that an Indiana attorney could advise you best on, but your question remains open for three weeks. You may be correct about being defamed. However, you should keep this in mind. These cases can be costly, and attorneys do not necessarily handle them on a one-third contingency... Read more »

Part of your question might have gotten left off in uploading. If you could repost with additional details (do not include personal information), that might enable an Indiana attorney to meaningfully assess the matter. Good luck

Is this grounds to pull you over
Yes. I had this exact issue arise in an Elkhart County drug case.
Men receive on average 63% harsher sentences. After some research this partly has to do with race. However, there is still a sizable gap (around 30%) that is unexplained.
This is not a legal question. It is one regarding policy.
I am sure there are many treatises and other writing you can study

The judge sentenced my boyfriend to 3 years do 18 months if he doesn't get into the drug program, which he didn't. But his release date has the full 3 years and the court told him he needs to file a modification. He needs to know what proper case logs he could use to put in his modification.

Without knowing the facts and circumstances, there are hundreds of books of case law and it is impossible to identify any in particular
