Person A then went into their apartment unloaded the clips and threw the guns into a field. How much trouble is person A in?
The answer to this question requires A LOT more information. Some of the questions I would need answered are the following: Does person A live with person B or did the person A trespass into person B's home to get the gun and clips? What is the nature of the relationship between person A... Read more »
Talk to the Police and an attorney!
The answer is no.
The law says "knows or reasonably should know that he or she is being pursued" is the felony statutory language.

And your question is?

Me and my fiance have criminal cases open, non violent. He is currently in custody. I was wondering how it works to give the DA information as a trade to having him released and our cases closed. The information I have is on a high priority cold case, they recently offered a high reward for... Read more »
No DA will make a promise based on the vague information you are willing to share. You need to have a criminal defense attorney try to negotiate this for you. It may not be possible.
I was unresponsive when police arrived, gun confiscated, released to hospital, summons on July 22
Highly unlikely since you didn't menace anyone. Get some help with the alcohol please.
In Colorado, a dismissed and sealed case is enough to get 2A rights.
Last December they detained me because I had a hotel room with a friend who (ee later discovered) was being investigated on a 10+ count indictment. He was arrested earlier that day, I found out,and charged with DF 1(drug felony). I told cops whatever was in the room was mine. They had warrants for... Read more »
When the investigation is completed, they will tell you, is when you can get your things. That will be after charges are filed and the case prosecuted. You can call the detective that is assigned the case. Sometimes they will be honest about the plans for filing with the DA.
RIGHTS HAD NOT BEEN VIOLATED WHEN I FELT THEY HAD BEEN. I WANT TO WITHDRAWL MY PLEA AND MOVE TO FILE FOR DISMISSAL BECAUSE I PLEAD NOT GUILTY ALMOST 10 MONTHS AGO. CAN I DO THIS LEGALLY?
Each case's facts will determine if the court finds a reason to let you withdraw your plea. That area of law is complex. You need to retain a criminal defense attorney to examine all the facts and decisions in your case to see if what you want is likely. Your time for challenging your plea... Read more »

sorry but you cannot expunge a sex offense conviction in Colorado unless it was not really a conviction
The girl had been arguing with her father and did not want to go home. They arrived at my son's and I's house and were greeted by police. He was charged with harboring a minor. He had just turned 18 three months earlier. They knew each other from high school. The police messed up his name... Read more »
sorry your son is going through this. However, to assess the case and whether the plea offer is reasonable, it would be best to retain an attorney to look at the police reports and all the facts and do further investigation if necessary in order to better negotiate with the DA.
Cops said it will most likely be a permanent protection order and I believe he is still paying rent to store his stuff here but he isn't coming back and I want the clutter gone so we can find a new roommate. He's been in another state for a month coming back for a day or two then leaving... Read more »
I am sorry to hear about your situation. There is no time specified by the law for him to remove belongings from his home. Particularly if he is on the lease, he is not legally obligated to remove his belongings. If this is a criminal protection order, it will be in place until the criminal... Read more »

I am sorry to hear about your situation. If you are asking whether the police can arrest you only because you are not speaking to them, the answer is no. They have to have probable cause to suspect you of a crime to arrest you.
My son is incarcerated in Texas, but his home state is Colorado. I would like to know where to find the information I need to possibly get him traded back here to Colorado where his family is.
That is strictly a matter for the Colorado Department of Correction and the Texas Department of Corrections. However that does not mean you have hit a brick wall. Call Colorado DOC's main number and asked to speak to the person in charge of inmate relocation. You may hit a brick wall at that... Read more »
I was involved in an armed gas station robbery in 2019.

If you have not been personally served with a subpoena you have no legal obligation to appear. However, I assume you are important witness since, as you say, you were "involved in an armed gas station robbery." Unless you were a participant, you might want to give some thought to... Read more »

Unfortunately, this happens a lot. Especially if the accuser is in an intimate relationship with the accused person and the allegations involve domestic violence. A case like this, with a significant lack of evidence, is very defensible. Consult with an attorney ASAP to assess your best options.
Probation officer or does your attorney handle that communication as well?
If you have a pending violation of probation and have hired a lawyer to represent you on the alleged violation, you are still required to continue reporting to probation - that obligation doesn't change. The fact that you have a lawyer on your probation matters does not then automatically... Read more »
