As far as I know there is no will & I was the executive on his life insurance which I split in half with my brother.

There are too many details left out of your question to determine what the answer is. You should meet with a lawyer licensed to practice law in the state where the house is located. During the appointment the lawyer will get these details and should be able to give you good advice.
The defendant was given 30 hrs of independent community service and 2 months of no contact with myself the plaintiff. I was told the case was dismissed, however I don’t know if it was with or without prejudice. I am now suing the defendant in civil court and want to make sure I can go forward... View More

Just because a criminal case was dismissed in criminal Court does not mean that you cannot pursue legal action in a civil Court. So you should have no problem going forward with a civil lawsuit.

Speak to your attorney handling the auto case. Sounds like if you show your evidence you can get the report changed or at least show there is a question of fact regarding the veracity of the report. You should also try and make an addendum to the original report. Good luck!

It's entirely possible that the search of the house was illegal. As a general rule, the police must have a warrant to conduct a search of a residence but there are many exceptions. You should consult with an experienced criminal defense lawyer who can review the evidence to determine whether a... View More

A judge would nit care what an attorney wrote here.
Legal arguments require a lot more than an "I can do it" belief

I know you may not realize it, but you're asking for free work to be done.
Asking a lawyer what he or she thinks is asking the lawyer to provide work. Most of our work, before one of us may open our mouths in a courtroom, or in writing on an appeal..... is thinking through the problem... View More

If you would have the courtesy to write in complete sentences beginning with capital letters and ending in punctuation marks, it might assist in understanding your inquiry.
perhaps paragraphs could also help.
If you choose to use your self created punctuation that is your choice.... View More
arrested for failure to identify/ obstruction of identification for not giving my name but wasnt charged with it
answered on Oct 1, 2019
Please stop asking the same question over and over. I have already answered your same question a number of times. If the Police ask you your name and you either refuse to give them your name or give a false name, you can and will be charged with obstruction. You have been charged with an offense,... View More
i was charged with evidence found but not why i was arrested
answered on Oct 1, 2019
What? Your question is confusing. If the Police ask you to identify yourself and you refuse to do so or give a false name, you absolutely can and will be charged with Obstruction. If you have been charged with any offense, you need to hire a criminal defense attorney right away. The sooner you hire... View More

You can refuse anything you like. Then it is considered a failed test by the court system. As such, there is a possibility that you could lose your children.

What? If a Police Officer asks you what your name is, you have to give them your name or you could be charged with Obstruction at a minimum. If you have been charged with an offense, you need to hire an attorney right away.
i refused to identify myself being that i didnt do anything wrong but was thrown to the ground an searched without notice
answered on Sep 23, 2019
You have already asked the same question and I have already responded to that same question. You must identify yourself if asked by a Police Officer. If you fail to do so or give a false name, you will be charged with Obstruction at the very least.
answered on Sep 23, 2019
If a Police Officer asks you what your name is, you have to tell them your actual name. If you give them a false name or refuse to tell them your name, you could be charged with Obstruction, which is a Misdemeanor offense.

Your case should be postured to file suit soon based on your fact description. I would urge you to hire an experienced attorney if you haven't done so already. The "Driver's" traffic violation records may not come in as evidence necessarily and will likely be challenged as to... View More

I suppose the answer to this question depends on why you're possessing the knife. Possession of such a knife could lead to your arrest.

There is no way to answer your question effectively without an appointment (typically several hours long) reviewing the facts and any documents you can supply, investigating the medical condition that causes you to seek reasonable accommodation, etc.
