Depends if he was convicted, and on what crime he was convicted. There are many levels of DV. Also, the officer might want to know what happened. You say the case was dismissed from the court, so it depends on what you mean by this. If the person was never actually convicted, then this wouldn't... Read more »
What was the disposition of the case? The firearm is evidence so you won't get it back until the case is finalized. There is also a strong possibility that if you enter into a plea bargain or if you are found guilty at trial, you will have to forfeit the weapon. Talk with your attorney. Good... Read more »
Juvenile center. They released me a month later and now I’m in release orders until my next court date saying I have to stay with my friends mom (who they released me to) I was wondering if legally they can do that since I’m 18??
Yes, "they can do that". Turning 18 does not mean you are not subject to court orders. I suggest you speak with an attorney. Good luck.

There is no "verbal assault" statute per se, but see Texas Penal Code Section 22 for the law on assault.

Can a civil suit be filed against him and would he be placed in the sexual predator list?
This is very serious and you need to contact a local attorney immediately. However, this is not likely a civil matter. If the authorities get a hold of the video there are a number of crimes that can be charged. If the video portrays any genitalia the video is child pornography. Any adult who... Read more »

It's been almost 4 months since I hired him, I was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. I was released on a bond and been under partial house arrest since then. I want to know if my lawyer is working on my case. How do I find out?
Call him/her. Good lawyers will freely talk to their clients and show you what they have done. All lawyers must communicate with their client. If the lawyer won't get back with you then you should hire another lawyer and look at remedies with the State Bar.
My sister signed to go to a rehab an probation but given that she has a child and the hold for the rehab has no date when she will get to go
Time spent in custody awaiting transfer to a rehab facility as a condition of probation does not count as credit toward any jail sentence; it is considered a condition of probation as well. There is no way to know exactly when she will be transferred.
In public, unknown people approach me closer than 2 meters and wearing no mask. They smile as they speak. I am fearful. They are obviously disobedient and uncaring. I ask them to stop; but, they only withdraw laughing - after they break all the rules concerning my health and safety. Sometimes they... Read more »
