Rape and sexual assault are always crimes regardless of age. Consensual sex involving a minor under 16 years of age is only rape or a sexual offense if the older participant is 4 years or more older than the minor. Consensual sex between minors within 4 years of age is not rape or a sexual offense.... Read more »
The recording will be audio and video.
Do I need to get consents from all participants still? As we understand, the church meetings are not private conversations.
Please advise.
Simply announce to all who are present at the outset that the meeting will be video- and audio-taped. If there is a written notice that goes out to everyone who is invited to attend, consider stating that fact in the notice. Anyone who attends and remains is deemed to have consented. Otherwise,...

If so then is this then a felony
What a felony?
My brother had threatened to kill me numerous times
Report it to tge authorities
I drive a pick up truck to transport vehicles on for work. After an accident, insurance got too expensive, so I put the insurance in my wifes name. I got in another accident recently and when police arrived, they asked who was driving. I panicked that only my wife is licensed to drive so i said it... Read more »
Hire a lawyer. Usually these citations can be negotiated with the prosecutor into a lesser offense or worked out before the judge so as to avoid jail and points, and even avoid a conviction.
Violation of Probation (first time)
Extradited because of or for what?
People are not found innocent. They are found not guilty
I have a friend of mine who's ”Babyfather” has been harassing her and their baby. Sending people to fight her and stalking her by creating new accounts on Facebook. She fled to Alabama to get away from everything but they keep harassing her.
First, document the harassment. I often provide clients was an agenda or calendar that has individual pages for each day. I have them document in that agenda exactly what happened on a specific date and keep a running log of it. Don't lie or exaggerate anything in that book, be as accurate as you... Read more »
You will have to resolve it now. You may have a constitutional post indictment speedy trial delay
Only if you were not convicted. A conviction for distributing CDS cannot be expunged. If you received a “probation before judgment” (PBJ) disposition, then you were not convicted and you would be eligible for expungement. Other dispositions, like nolle prosequi, or stet, would also be... Read more »
If a warrant was issued for an arrest, do the police have to provide you with the warrant and/or inform you why you're arrested
Once they serve you with the warrant, you’ll receive a copy of the warrant and statement of charges (or indictment if charged that way). That will tell you all you need to know. If you know a warrant has been issued for you, hire counsel now. They can call to find out the details and arrange a... Read more »
Essentially my question is, is driving with a suspended an arrestable offense if the drivers license is suspended due to an unpaid fine?
Not if the officer correctly identifies the reason for the suspension. Suspended for unpaid tickets is not a jailable offense. However, they don’t always confirm the correct reason, and if you’re cited for the more serious version, you could be arrested (although ordinarily you’d just be... Read more »
Was there probable cause for your arrest? If so, regardless of outcome, you generally do not.
However, are you simply going to rely on an answer here?
Of course not. So why have you not been contacting attorneys directly?
There really homophobic and i never did a thing to them
Unless you’re 4 or more years older than your boyfriend, and he’s 15 or younger, then no, they cannot get a restraining order under the law.
this violation is based on a new arrest. The probation warrant came from judge in PG County & his current lawyer isn't much help at all.
He is as on parole and probation as well? If he was on parole (early conditional release from a prison sentence) and he was re-arrested on a new charge, parole is automatically revoked and he returns to prison to serve his existing sentence. Release on bond in that situation is rare. Even if he was... Read more »
cop approached us as we were outside of the van, first asking how old we all were, and then claimed that she knows we have alcohol in the vehicle. She stated that we could make it easy and just get the alcohol out and dump it, or that they could take a different route. My friend driving the van is... Read more »
The post states that the 6 underage people (all of whom were under 21 and some of whom were under 18) actually had alcohol, though seems to think there was "no possible way" an officer could have known. Perhaps this doesn't give the officer enough credit. The post does not seem to describe any... Read more »
The accident happened at my employer parking lot. I was moving the company van from in front of a garage door to a spot directly behind. Another vehicle was not paying attention and ran into me.
Is there a leg to stand on to plea not guilty?
It is unclear on your facts whether the accident was your fault or not--generally speaking, if you were backing up, it is more likely your fault, but that is really irrelevant to your bigger issue, which is being charged with driving while intoxicated or--if this is what you mean: driving without a...

A person can be a court appointed guardian of a minor or mentally incompetent adult, or can be named as an agent for someone under their written power of attorney. No such thing as “power of guardian.” Depending on which one is in effect, your defense may change. If your friend had the legal... Read more »
It is not a current criminal code reference. Therefore, it either refers to a pre-2002 criminal offense under repealed Article 27, Section 26 (juror tampering or intimidation), or its a reference to a county or municipal code infraction (in which case you need to specify the jurisdiction). Or... Read more »
