You should consider requesting early termination of supervised release—which is what I believe you mean by “federal probation,” as the health issue requiring you to possess a medical cannabis card is likely a “new or unforeseen circumstance,” that makes early termination appropriate when...

Depends. Need more information. Were you convicted of a felony for possession of CDS I, or a misdemeanor? If a felony, what was your sentence and when did you fully complete that sentence (including completion of all probation or parole from that sentence)? La. R.S. 14:95.1 might prohibit your...

What are your goals in this? I would recommend that you contact an attorney in your area and have a consult to specifically discuss this ----what's going on at work and what you seek from asserting a complaint/lawsuit---and then decide the best way to proceed. Good luck.
And get them to either confess to a murder or tell who did it plzz what can I do.

What can you do? The first thing you need to do is contact a criminal defense lawyer in your area or expanded area, meet with him, and secure representation so that you do not get railroaded. Good luck.

Has a criminal protective order put out on him on my behalf is it possible to get a peace bond so we can marry each other
answered on Sep 21, 2021
Even generally, unless that Order of Protection is removed then technically that groom does not have any legal right to make any proximal physical contact with you, let alone marrying you, per terms and conditions of that order.
Have his attorney provide a better way to handle that correctly.

Sure, anyone can sue anyone else; so f you have $400,000 I am sure you can find a bunch of security lawyers willing to try to slay a giant. But you need to forget about "bribery" and "string-attached manipulation."
Does this mean I go to jail or just get probation?
answered on Apr 28, 2021
This means you do NOT go to jail unless you violate the 3 years of probation. If you do violate the terms of your probation, you go to jail for 2 years.
Does that mean I have to go to jail or prison?
answered on Apr 27, 2021
Do you have an attorney representing you? If so, then you need to ask her these questions and your options? That said, if what you write is accurate, then you do not go to jail unless during your probation of 3 years you are revoked which case you then have to sere your jail time. But... Read more »
