Siu to report her fraud after they’d already repaired the car. Does geico follow up on the things and wouldn’t she have heard from geico within a week?
The short answer is that yes, they do sometimes follow up after paying. From the description, she committed a crime. She might or might not ever hear directly from GEICO (except maybe to cancel her insurance). Much more likely is that if they found out about this, they reported it to the police.... Read more »

There are a couple items that jump out at me here. The first is that driving while your license is suspended is not just a ticket. It is a criminal offense. It isn't a very serious offense, but it is still a criminal charge. I know the form that they wrote it up on looks just like a traffic... Read more »

The law allows a parent to seek a protection order on behalf of a minor child. So you can go to the local courthouse and ask for a protection order that would prohibit him from contacting her, but that would only be valid until she is 18.
You can of course report what is happening to local... Read more »

I was wondering if someone could tell about how long of a sentence he might get?
You should contact the victim advocate at the prosecutor’s office
Different courts handle these differently. First if there is a public defender on the case, ask her or him what the process is. If not, or if you don't know who that is, then call the court and ask them the procedure. You can do this without a lawyer and there are no costs. But if there is a lawyer... Read more »

The person has no prior record
There is no exact answer. Depends on the jurisdiction, who the judge is, and the facts of the case. The most important factor about the facts of the case is probably whether it was alcohol related or not.

Could be issued after court hours was if the evidence to be seized would be gone by the time the court reopened to obtain the warrant
In Washington the short answer is yes, that can be done. There is no requirement for an after hours warrant that the evidence is going to be gone soon. The judge might not be happy about having her evening interrupted, but there's PC it doesn't matter what time the warrant is obtained.

I have an etsy shop and listed a handmade box and book with flower seeds. It focuses on Papaver somniferum common names are Opium Poppy, breadseed poppy. Etsy took it down today saying poppy pods and poppy straw are prohibited. I don't want to argue with them but is this just etsy or is selling a... Read more »
Most likely it's a subjective determination by Etsy about inclusion of a prohibited item in the product. Clearly, they appear to be taking things a bit far in this regard, but it's Etsy's platform, and therefore its terms of service (or terms of use, etc.) may empower it with the ability to remove...

Correct - that crime is only committed if the engine is running.
The state is trying to prosecute a DV4 case, what are the possible consequences if the reporter recants and tells the judge it didn’t really happen?
Let's start with, this isn't the judge's first rodeo. Credibility of the recantation will be at issue.
Next, you're question needs to be put in the context of where you are with regard to trial and sentencing.
If you are pretrial, the goal would seem to be to cause the... Read more »

Unfortunately this is not uncommon. Investigators send their report to the local prosecutor, who may take weeks or months to file a charge.
