If a mistake was made by the Court, you may file a Motion to Reconsider. You must not introduce any new evidence but merely point out, usually with a brief, why the Court's decision cannot stand. This motion is always filed to the Court which granted the change of venue, in order to give the... View More

I completely agree.

You don't lose any rights by being forcibly removed from your own home. The frustration you feel is felt by every, single male who is removed and now has to pay for two (2) residences. If you own it outright without your mate's co-ownership, simply sell it out from under her and buy a... View More

You're an invited guest. Your "permission" my be fluid, so don't push it. There's no such thing as abolishing permission revoked. It may be given and taken away fluidly. Be careful!

Probation officers are given about 90% of your son's 4th Amendment rights, while he is on probation. If you son had been at home, the P.O. would have been able to come right in, after ringing the door bell of course. They have the right to search his room plus any "common area."... View More

It's a governor's prerogative to use his executive powers during a pandemic to manage risk to the citizens he's charged with protecting. It's going to be very interesting to see if the executive's authority exceeds the constitution's guarantee of DUE PROCESS to all... View More

Idaho doesn't have such a statute. An "assault" is the reasonable fear of a "battery." A "battery" is an "unlawful touching." If you touch another person against their will, you may be charged with "battery." If you use an automobile to... View More

It's called "Malicious Injury to Property," a violation of Idaho Code Section 18-7001. If the damage is over one-thousand ($1,000) dollars, then it's a felony and punishable by a fine of up to five thousand ($5,000) dollars and/or imprisonment of not more than five (5) years, or both.

Hello, make sure you correct me if I summarize the facts wrong. So, the passenger is told by police that he is free to leave because the driver is being detained? The passenger then doesn't leave? Why not? Did the officer run up to the window and say, "hey, I want to search you or... View More

Kind of a weird answer for the passenger to give the cop I'd say, but I would definitely file a Motion to Suppress anything found on the passenger since the cop went ahead and denied a

"Terry" pat down and went ahead with a full-blown search without probable cause.

You left out thE most important fact: how young is the female?

You were staying with your grandmother, right? You brought your $3,000 dog with you, right? You did something that caused your grandmother to 86 you, right? But you didn't take your dog. Now grandma is going to feed and water your dog FOR FREE? I don't see that happening. It was... View More

Absolutely! As long as the evidence can point to multiple people it will not be deemed "double jeopardy." Double Jeopardy protects us from being punished twice for the same (or similar) crime (or acquitted). The evidence would have to have a close nexus to more than one defendant... View More

Your brother has committed a crime "abuse of the elderly" and because you are the Administrator of the estate, you must act like a cop to catch "over-reaching," "fraud or outright theft" of "estate" property. When your mother died, another legal... View More

Police didn't HAVE TO take the kids. Police COULD HAVE allowed you to pick them up or actually HELP you find a family member who could pick the kids up, BUT THEY DON'T HELP! THEY PUNISH and PUNISH and PUNISH you! YOU'RE A BAD DAD!! WE'RE GOING TO EVENTUALLY LET YOU HAVE YOUR... View More

Judges will ofttimes resort to the “record” to “prove” that something you said or the way your mouth moved or a facial tic of your lawyer WAIVED your constitutional right to a speedy trial. Problem is that this right only applies if you’re still in custody (180 days)! Most people would... View More

This sounds like a situation wherein the actual prosecutor believes he/she’s a witness to an NCO violation, perhaps a jail call (that they listen to). It’s a much trickier charge to get out of since the threat of amending the charge is easier than you’d ever imagine for the State to prove.... View More

She can ALWAYS petition to lift the NCO! It may or may not be granted . . . depending on the personal, self-righteousness of the judge you’re in front of.

The code section is well written and easily understood (to me). What specifically do you not understand?
