I just move to the state and to my knowledge have done nothing wrong .

answered on May 4, 2022
If I were you, I'd ask what they would like to speak to you about. Maybe you were listed as a witness or potential witness to something, even if you know nothing about whatever they're looking into. But another scenario is that, for some reason, you are a crime suspect, such as where... Read more »
I have an email where counsel literally denies my request to take action because of indigent status. Can I be denied rights guaranteed by the constitution for asking the courts for a lawyer instead of paying one?

answered on May 4, 2022
You can file a motion or appeal to ask the Court to find that the conviction should be reversed or reheard due to ineffective assistance of counsel.

I assume you contacted the police? If so, you'll probably need a copy of the police report to show fraud on any of your financial accounts. Other than that, let the police do what they do.

You are not the first person to be confused by the inmate phone system. First off, the inmate must call you. You cannot call the inmate. Calls are not free so payment must be arranged for the inmate to call you.

Not sure of your "Court" fraud, but a Governmental Tort Liability Action is 1 year from injury. Probably any other applicable cause of action will also be 1 year, except some property torts are 3 years.

If the judge ordered it, then yes. However, you have the right to a bond review hearing.

Judge Trial

answered on May 1, 2022
I bench trial occurs when a party waives their right to a jury trial, and allows a particular matter to proceed to trial with just the judge, meaning that the judge makes all decisions regarding the law AND concerning facts.
He only had a technical violatiol

answered on Apr 29, 2022
Technical violations carry up to two years in prison -- if a defendant is revoked. The fact that prisons are crowded is generally not a factor that the courts consider in determining a defendant's sentence. Your best move is to hire a good criminal defense attorney or seek the services of... Read more »
I want to identify a defendant via order to show cause with an affidavit of support. Do I need a petition? If so, do I need to buy an index number? Can use the same index number in a lawsuit after the order to show in the same matter? Or do I have to buy a new index number?

answered on Apr 28, 2022
Yes, you will need to file a petition (for which you will need to purchase an index number) and move by Order to Show Cause for pre-action discovery (which can only be used to identify a defendant - not to find out if you actually have a viable case). You CANNOT use the same index number in the... Read more »
