I think your best move is to renew your license in-person,with your birth certificate. Just tell the clerk there seems to be an error on your license. Say nothing else. If you start to tell the government that you were aware of the error and participated in it's production and use, you will be... Read more »

I suspect that, for the purposes of a crime like falsifying a government record, the party executive committing is more akin to a private club than a government body. I haven't researched that but that would be my guess.
My son’s grandma (not my mom) was recently arrested for “forgery of a financial instrument >2500<30k, ENH IAT.” It was some sort of government document but I can’t see what exactly it was. It’s listed as a third degree felony on her arraignment public record. She has 5 prior... Read more »

Under the scenario you provided, it is possible for... Read more »

There are rules that govern when in-state and out of state tuition should be charged.

Your situation seems terrible.
Witness protection can have different meanings and different levels of protection. The DA's office should have a "victim's advocate" or something similar. It is usually the task of that unit or person to handle your concerns. If that is not... Read more »

You can be arrested and prosecuted for anything.

Was given an appointment for sept 23 and I'm trying to teach my son to drive before he leaves for school in August. I'm unable to sit and wait hours because of my job How is everything else open but public service

Everything is open except "public service" (aka government jobs) because they make the rules. Welcome to government. You can teach your son to drive without them, but you'll need to deal with DPS to get him a license. The good news is that if he's old enough to drive,... Read more »

I'm not sure but the first place I would try is chapter 46 of the Texas Penal Code and just mentally replace the word "club" with "baton." Here is the link: https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/PE/htm/PE.46.htm
I have looked in the constitution and found no provision requiring state executives to be called governors. So was curious if it was in federal law or if there is no law barring the change and that legislatures only need approve it and it shall be done?
answered on Mar 1, 2021
State Constitutions specify the titles of the executive officers. While the Constitution could be amended to change the title, really, what's the point?
I have always thought that governors like the president were expected to defend and protect their people. If so, why is there no mention of this specifically in the Oath?
answered on Feb 25, 2021
All public representatives, and lawyers, take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. Numerous Supreme Court decisions make it clear that none of them, including the police, have any duty to "protect the people," and frankly, we're all safer that way.
