Before wasting time on a consultation with an attorney, you need to determine the correct identity of whomever is causing the phenomenon you are experiencing.
I would recommend seeing a psychiatrist or neurologist to assist you in locating the source and nature of the device(s). They may... View More
Right after now I live in texas I’m getting honorably discharged can I buy a personal firearm in texas
answered on Jun 28, 2023
The easiest way to find out for sure is to purchase your firearm from a federally licensed dealer. Make sure you are truthful on the application. As long as you do not lie on the application, the worse that can happen is they deny your purchase. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

If your friend was on parole and found in possession of a firearm, even if he had no knowledge of it being in the car, he may still be in violation of his parole. Possession of a firearm is typically a violation of parole conditions and can result in revocation of parole and additional criminal... View More

Your question leaves out some possible scenarios. Sometimes all the actions of the defendant must occur in the same county.

From your description, it sounds to me like you received deferred adjudication for reckless driving. Reckless driving is not a felony. Technically, it is also not a Class A or B misdemeanor; it is a hybrid offense.

I bought edibles in Colorado state in a legal store. I was with 2 friends and the person driving MY car got us pulled over for speeding and the officer did a search to find her driver's license. Also what happens if I don't get a lawyer and represent myself in court ?
answered on Nov 22, 2022
I agree with Penny that you need to retain a lawyer. The range of punishment for this offense will depend on what substance is in the edibles and on the amount that were in the car. An attorney can review the discovery and assess the evidence to determine if there was probable cause for the... View More

Just how does it work if someones age of consent is like 18 and the other partys is 16.* It cut it off
answered on Nov 18, 2022
A person's age of consent is based on his/her location or conduct at the time of particular actions. There is not a situation that I can think of where two different people doing the same thing in the same place have different ages of consent.
For example, in Texas, the age of consent... View More

It seems unlikely you would be charged for making vague statements at a National Night Out event.
Making a false statement to a police officer that is material to an ongoing criminal investigation is a crime. From your question, it doesn’t sound like anything you said was material to a... View More
I completed probation and also wanna know if I can get that charge expunged
answered on Oct 4, 2022
No. You only can get a charge expunged if it was dismissed without probation / deferred adjudication supervision, or, you were found not guilty at trial.
However, you might qualify for an order of nondisclosure - sealing the offense from public disclosure. Some offenses require a waiting... View More

To obtain a transcript, contact the court reporter if the court in which the case was heard. That would be the starting point for the transcript. 31 years is a long time to retain a transcript, depending on the type of case & what happened in the case (appeals, etc.).

Unfortunately, if she has been staying there for over 30 days, you will have to evict her or make a claim that she is violating her parole conditions. If you do the latter (Parole Vio.), she will go back to prison.

You can use deadly force to defend against deadly force, or to defend yourself against becoming the victim of certain violent felonies. However, you cannot use deadly force to defend against NON-deadly force being used against you (in most circumstances). If a person is 17, they're an adult in... View More
