My boyfriend got arrested for some warrants and ended up having drugs in his pocket. They searched the lunge area in his vehicle which supposedly included my purse on the floor of the passenger side of his vehicle despite me telling them they could not because I wasant under arrest at this point....

I don't know what a 'lunge area' is. These suppression issues are highly fact specific. Contact a local criminal defense attorney for a detailed meeting in person.
Utah state. I got possession of controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia. Just weed, first charge ever in my 28 years. Also Failure to register registration. Warning. Is what the ticket says.
the officer gave me a break for just making it easy for him when he asked if I had... Read more »
An attorney would have to inspect your documents to give you a good answer but my suspicion is that there was a communication breakdown between you and the officer. Failure to register is a non-moving violation and is generally dismissed if you produce evidence that you have corrected the problem.... Read more »

Normally, law enforcement only has the right to search the area you're renting. If your rental agreement allows you to be in other parts of the house, then you're not just renting a room, but all the common areas, too. The other parts of the house may also be subject to search if you don't have a... Read more »

According to Utah Administrative Code you should have received a copy of the Utah Consumer Bill of Rights Regarding Towing as soon as you were contacted by the towing company. If you did not, you can file a complaint with UDOT on their website (www.udot.utah.gov). You may have a claim for damages... Read more »
My ex was arrested for murder. My son is in custody with my ex boyfriends aunt. There is no custody arrangement. I just want to get my son I have been trying for the last 2 years but the father would not let me see him and left with my son to another state. I have spoke with law enforcement and... Read more »
Hi,
I am not a family law attorney, but as I understand it, as long as your parental rights have not been terminated, your custodial rights should trump anyone else's except for maybe the father.
So if you just picked him up and took him home, it would be in within your rights. I... Read more »
You could additionally post this in the Criminal Law section. Criminal law attorneys would be able to provide more meaningful input on the issues mentioned here than personal injury attorneys would.

Is it okay for someone to suffer over and over for years because a judge wants to say you can't do it...even legal everywhere...then expect me to be okay with revoking and restarting for 10 years or however long and go through all this keeping in mind already spending 48 months in custody...

You need to consult directly with an attorney. Your facts are not sufficient to understand what occurred. Moreover, you have one long run-on sentence so it is virtually impossible to parse
And i didn't give him no reason to pull me over or to search my car
I believe your only asking the question because you received a ticket for something. Why did the officer give you a ticket?
The charges were never taken care of messed up my hole life can i sew state for messing my entire life up
No, you cannot sue the State for charging you with a crime.
That's a very complex question with no clear answer - very fact specific. You will need to hire an appellate attorney.
This issue needs a local lawyer to assist you. Plus, reading this question, the first thing that comes to an attorney's mind is, "What did you OMIT from this question?"
The fact that she is "keeping" your son from you raises a red flag.
Have you legitimized the child?

Not really. Up to parents.
If you are both consenting adults (18+), you may co-habitate, so long as there is not an Order from a Court preventing you from doing so (i.e. Protective Order, etc.)
If you feel you are bein stalked you need to report it to the police. If you have been threatened you also need to report that to the police. I have no idea what you are saying about Sharia law. This is Utah. It is Mormon law here.
Might need more details to this. The question is, if the attorney didn't show up, then who is presenting the evidence?
A brain injury so she is mentally younger
You should call the police and report it to the school.
What can we do about it
You need to contact a civil law attorney. You haven't been charged with a crime so it isn't criminal law, and the government is not involved so it isn't civil rights.
I left Utah for IL a few days ago with my emotional all support cat. I tried to let my husnand know but he refused to answer hus phone or texts. I sent him this text (about leaving the next day) "Ok. Well when tomorrow rolls around, I apologize in advance. I love you and what you're doing is not... Read more »
This is a Family Law question. Please re-post it there.

Not if they are trying to identify who owns it.
neither the driver or the passenger is the owner of the car, the driver is initially stopped by an off duty cop who thought these people looked like two suspects wanted at the time, even though the descriptions did not match at all. except for one white male and one tongan male. after confirming...

The cops always charge everyone in the car when they find drugs. You need to get an attorney to help you litigate these other issues.
