The police said they found a meth shard inside of my sister's purse. There isn't no purse in evidence or on her property list when she was booked in what Happens if the see so called purse isn't present at trial?
The officer can still testify as to his observations. He is subject to cross-examination by the defense counsel. If there is a legitimate question as to whether the purse ever existed, that's something that could be argued at trial if a defense counsel, after reviewing the evidence in the... Read more »

Generally, if you are able to afford an attorney in your jurisdiction you should be able to locate one. If you can, I recommend searching for attorneys in your area and speaking with them directly to determine whether they are the right fit.
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.

In plea deals it states if you except the plea charges will be taken off and you plea for lesser time
But if not then you are getting the original charges if wanted plus some and looking at a longer sentence
Isnt that bribing,threatening,intimidation
And against our constitutional rights
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 »
I am going to venture a guess that you are charged with a misdemeanor and the prosecutor is not seeking jail time. Under those circumstances, the courts have found that you do not have a constitutional right to counsel because your liberty is not at risk.
I will assume 1616 owed on mtg. Since I also had POA, and property was security to me coupled POA, can I just file as owner with contract. I fully performed.
It sounds like you paid for the property but never got a deed. Yes, the property would be part of her estate and you have a claim to receive it pursuant to contract. You should hire a probate attorney to help you pursue that claim.
Is it unlawful (and unethical) for a current AAG to switch sides (concurrently), while continuing to practice in same exact jurisdiction/court room - opposite former colleages & client - now defending clientele he would have formerly prosecuted?

You already asked this same question and received an answer.
If an attorney here says no, are you going to drop it?
Recently a case was assigned to a public defender (former prosecutor) to defend a man whos father had been prosecuted successfully by the same attorney many years prior. The son's case is not of the same charges as his father's prior case, however, the attorney remains in the same... Read more »
This is a wonderful academic question.
If your son feels the attorney is in conflict, then he should voice it to the judge.
If no action is taken, then he can send a request to the judge.
If an attorney here said there is nothing wrong, would you just drop the subject?
Arizona. Advice please.
What is statue of limitations?
There was likely a medical blood draw that was used by police to determine the presence of alcohol and/or drugs. Normally a single vehicle collision on its own will not be sufficient to be allege the DUI as aggravated so more information would be needed. The best advice I can give is to consult a... Read more »
This is a tricky question to answer because there are many specific things that can happen that need to be evaluated. However, the quick and simple answer is that as long as the police are conducting an investigation they are allowed to detain you. Now, there are other legal things to bring into... Read more »
can evidence from said search be supressed.
If you and your defense counsel can show by a preponderance of the evidence that law enforcement officials had knowledge the vehicle was not stolen when they obtained the warrant, then yes, you should be able to succeed in a motion to suppress any evidence obtained UNLESS the state can show they...

I recommend visiting the State Bar of Arizona's website where you can specifically look for a Post Conviction Relief (PCR) lawyer.

Why would you not be able to marry him? Legally you are an adult and are allowed to marry whoever the law will allow you to marry, so unless he is a first-cousin, or other close relative, you can marry him.

You have no obligation to talk to the police in a domestic dispute. The police must have probable cause to arrest you. However, they may have felt they had probable cause to charge you with a criminal offense (such as disorderly conduct) and will occasionally use the threat of an arrest to get... Read more »

Is this a homework assignment or a question on a test? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyllo_v._United_States
You did not word your question correctly, the ruling was that a warrant was required for that type of search.
I was incarcerated for 28 days total by probation, that I wasn't even on. Shouldn't I get compensated for those days?
Perhaps, but this question was asked nearly 4 years ago, and I hope you found an answer someplace other than here.
You can look this up yourself, perhaps by getting an understandable summary on wikipedia. Do an internet search.
