Is that a crime
answered on May 31, 2022
Short answer: No.
The 4th Amendment protects you from unwarranted searches and seizures (subject to a truckload of exceptions that make it more holes than wall).
The remedy for a violation of the 4th Amendment is the exclusion of any evidence found or seized.
However, if you... Read more »

You have to remember that this is a Public Defender. You are entitled to court-appointed counsel if you qualify, but you are not entitled to pick the attorney who gets appointed. As long as the appointed attorney provides "effective assistance" as that term is defined by the Supreme Court... Read more »

This is NOT a legal question but a technical one. You need to identify the mechanism of transmission before any legal remedy is possible.
Ok let me add to this then so I can get a little more clarification. An illegal search and Seizure being detailed into a psi is not a violation of my 4th amendment right? Also bc I had marijuana on me in CA and it's legal and being in Indiana it is illegal this evidence enhanced my sentencing... Read more »

During the sentencing phase of a case, the legal standard for the admission of evidence no longer follows the Rules of Evidence. Rather, the evidence only needs to have "sufficient indicia of reliability" which is a pretty low bar.

Protective order vacated and the case is fully dismissed as of 12-18-2021
answered on Mar 14, 2022
If the case is dismissed, you're likely good to go. However, you won't know until you try.
As well as the witness feels like she can't go through with it , and is also the victim of the case ?

If subpoenaed to court, then the spouse needs to appear so as not to be in violation of a court order that could result in her arrest. That being said, depending on the circumstances of what she would testify to, the spousal privilege may limit or prevent her testimony. She should contact a... Read more »
The judge and attorney had pointed out that they acknowledge this, a motion for dismissal was entered in October however it hasn't been addressed and the 2 counties are passing him back and forth even trying to revoke the bond paid already in one county.
answered on Jan 20, 2022
No. Because the two counties are considered part of the same sovereign, that is, the state of Indiana, it would violate the Constitution's prohibition against double jeopardy.

He is the one they are investigating. Were my rights violated? Were my sons? We were not given a copy of the subpoena and only know because I work here. And everyone knows!

How can your rights be violated by a Subpoena? The Subpoena was NOT issued to you, but rather to your bank so your bank received the subpoena and apparently responded to it as they must.

Cause the person who did this violated the no contact order and the bail revocation hearing is before the trial
answered on Apr 25, 2021
I don't know what you mean by "brandishing", but it would take far more than that to justify use of deadly force against that person. Keep in mind that there IS a right to bear arms, both for you and the other person. You can't just shoot people because they are armed.

The protective order is likely for 2 years so it will expire before you turn 18, however, your parents may be able to get an extension. Additionally, if you and your boyfriend are sexually active and there is more than 4 years in age difference, he is committing Sexual Misconduct with a Minor... Read more »

You need to locate a civil rights attorney for that. You can use Justia to find attorneys who specialize in that area.
Many offer free consultations.
answered on Dec 28, 2020
That sounds like an inappropriate sentence. You should contact the clerk to get a copy of the sentencing order and then talk to a local criminal defense attorney.
