I created a group that consists of 23 people. We have soldiers, cooking staff, registered nurses, maintenance crew, and a supply/inventory crew that would come together in the event of a total collapse of the government and the United States. I was thinking about having some of us register as NRA... Read more »
As a criminal defense lawyer, I don't have the best answer for you. I recommend that you contact a lawyer who specifically deals with constitutional law as this is going to be up the alley of constitutional freedoms such as speech, assembly, etc.
On the criminal defense side of things, I... Read more »
They say 3 witnesses say I did it but I have 5 witnesses that can say I didn't and the video footage they have from my neighbor showing a vehicle leaving my driveway not being drove by me can show that I left 30 mins to an hour before it did what can I do when they seem determined to arrest me for...

You should hire an attorney immediately for your case.
By the European Cental Banks (Fed is funded by those banks) are unconstitutional under the 14th amendment ?
The fourteenth amendment does not apply to any sort of "bank debt" per se--European or otherwise. The fourteenth amendment--among many other things--protects all individuals subject to the Constitution--and certain entities--from a state government "taking" of property without "due process of law."...

Is it legal for him to do that if he didn't actually see who did the crime but he told police I did it an showed them pics of someone driving a vehicle and said it was me they have a warrant for me now an I'm innocent if they watch his cameras they would see me leaving before these other vehicles... Read more »
It is not illegal if your neighbor thought you committed a crime involving his property. If there is a warrant then you are going to need to call the Sheriff's department and see if they want you to turn yourself in. Because of COVID-19 , people with warrants are being booked then released on a... Read more »

I can't even make out what your question is. You can't go anywhere due to the coronavirus restrictions, so just stay where you are. The hotel will get paid eventually by the government, so there's no reason to worry about anything.
Always be polite with the police. And try to be reasonable... Read more »
There's a section here for Animal/Dog Law. If you wanted to try reposting there (there's no guarantee that all posts receive responses), you might have better chances of your question being seen by someone knowledgeable in this area. Good luck

Friend is trying to purchase an apartment in NYC but has been told that they couldnt do the sale since he had pictures of himself hunting in Texas on his social media.
Yes, it's likely they can refuse to sell because they are not a protected class under Federal, State, or Local Law. If they are already in contract this would be a different story depending on the contract. You can check the AG's website for more information.... Read more »
This would be on public property.
Yes, quite likely. Generally, you may film or take pictures of anything or anyone you can see from where you are lawfully present. What you do with those images is a different matter. Although I would say that the law allows far more than what personal ethics and morals might.
You need to pose this to a Tennessee attorney, but your post remains open for four weeks. Contact a Tennessee environmental attorney (there's a section here on that). You're talking about an environmental law matter more so than a constitutional law matter. Good luck

“Film anything from public property”—no, if by that you mean peering into the interior spaces of someone’s home through their windows or into areas where there would be a reasonable expectation of privacy. It does not matter that you happen to be standing on public property if you are using... Read more »

As a question of criminal justice philosophy, your point is well taken. Many legal scholars argue that the massive disparities between what a criminal defendant would be sentenced to if he pled guilty to an offense versus if he went to trial create a constitutional problem. My former criminal law... Read more »

Your Court Supervision should be fine, but you really need to have your parents hire a criminal defense attorney for you in order to assist you with these new charges. The sooner an attorney is hired, the better.
hello. I am currently on federal supervised release in the Western District of Kentucky and due to covid-19 my travel plans are being denied to visit my fiancé in Western District of Pennsylvania. We are planning to get married and I am wanting to move to PA be with her. She is a property owner in... Read more »
Until covid-19 is over, you’re stuck bc the courses are closed except for emergencies. The PO cannot prevent you from getting married but she can prevent you from moving until approval from the Court is obtained.
I filled for a concealed carry permit through the state of TN. After my background check was conducted they found that I was convicted of criminal damages to property- misdemeanor when I was 17, this was 14 years ago. The state has now asked for certified court documents on the case. However the... Read more »
You will have to provide the State the requested documents. The Department of Safety issues the HCP, and if they do not want to, they don't. If denied, you can file a declaratory action in General Sessions Court very soon after the denial. Denial of a HCP does not mean you necessarily have a... Read more »
No threats were made, but I did use vulgar language to express my disgust of their coverage.
Yes. Media companies are private parties. The First Amendment only bars the government from infringing on your freedom of speech, not private parties. You can post on your own Facebook page, and bar others from posting on your page. You have no right to force others to let you post on theirs.
Code enforcement is harassing me. Now they are targetting my neighbor for helping me
You need a lawyer who knows how to protect your civil rights. Code enforcement harassment can result in liens against your property which then drive up your mortgage payments and can put you in danger of losing your home if you can't afford the new payments your mortgage company can force on you if...

Yes and another case came down Thursday confirming that again. These police officers broke the law and your friend could probably sue them. I defend these cases and sue over constitutional violations, another attorney and I just won this case:

He's been in since the age of 17 for robbery. What can I do to try and get a reduced sentence? We are inclined to believe that sentence is excessive therefore violating the 8th amendment
You are not providing any factual information necessary to make determinations as to whether the punishment herein violates the 8th Amendment. You should seek a lawyer immediately and have this file thoroughly reviewed.

What's the question? Whether you are entitled to the appointment of counsel in postconviction proceedings?
No. The Sixth Amendment right to counsel does not extend to postconviction proceedings. However, if a trial court sets your postconviction motion for hearing, the court will often... Read more »
