Who was there. He was on drugs(wife’s son) and asked me to pick him up from the accident. Upon arrival I was detained and told that (wife’s son) identifies me as driver.

The word is called testimony. Testimony from one witness is sufficient.
If you do not trust those attorneys why would you trust an attorney on an internet site
The mans wife lied to a prosecutor and now my girlfriend faces up to 5 years in prison.
Your girlfriend needs to get a lawyer.
I’ve been unable to afford a private attorney and am now being forced to appear pro se what are my options?
1. Try the case pro se. If you lose, you could appeal the judge’s ruling that you don’t qualify.
2. Appeal to the judge with evidence of your finances and efforts to hire counsel. Maybe he or she will change his or her mind.
3. Borrow money to hire a lawyer.
I am on probation
If the police serve a warrant looking for evidence of crime A and find evidence of crime B, yes, you can be charged with crime B. So, for example, if they come through the door look to seize financial papers and computers because they believe you’re involved in a scam and there’s a bunch of... Read more »

I was put on probation ans assigned to classes. I have nothing to do with the case
It kinda sounds like it’s already over. So you should probably just do the classes and stay out of trouble until your probation ends.
The new girlfriend hung up on me and kept me from talking to my daughter. I drove to my exes house to discuss it. Was asked to leave and I left. The sheriff based on her statement that I spoke to family members has hanged me with aggravated menacing. Will that fly in court? It’s completely false.... Read more »
Well, you said you drove to her house and talked to her and then that you never had contact with her. So that’s not a great start. It’s possible that you mean a different “her.” Keeping this sort of stuff straight for the jury is exactly why it’s important to have a lawyer. You also... Read more »
That is still not hearsay.
It will depend on who the jury believes

Eyewitness testimony is not hearsay. It is known as direct testimony
Direct testimony is enough to convict
back and they agreed. when he tried to get it back after a couple weeks of trying they told him his car is gone and had been gone since 90 days after his arrest. Is there anything he can do about this since it was agreed upon in the plea agreement?
He should call his lawyer
No.
My boyfriends daughter has lived with us for 4 years her mom has abandoned her several times and wanted to visit her this weekend so we let her but now she refuses to bring her home, can we get her on kidnapping charges even though she has custody
No, she can’t kidnap her own child when she has custody. If paternity has been established, your boyfriend has visitation rights that could be enforced. If it hasn’t, then that will need to be done first.
Based on the limited facts, any admiralty/maritime issues involved were not clear.

Probably. They charge just about everyone these days when they’ve got a report of domestic violence whether or not the witness remains “cooperative.”
Charged with domestic violence
Your question is cut off
Without knowing all of the facts including their assertions, a proper answer cannot be given
What do I do
Thank you for sharing. No question
A standard misdemeanor has a statute of limitations of 2 years. So yep.
So I looked at my case documents and it says "INTERNAL WARRANT ISSUED - DO NOT ARREST - FAILURE TO APPEAR FOR FINE AND COSTS. " I'm just wondering what this means

The Courts in Ohio seem to understand that mistakes happen and sometimes the mistakes... Read more »
