Your Court Supervision should be fine, but you really need to have your parents hire a criminal defense attorney for you in order to assist you with these new charges. The sooner an attorney is hired, the better.

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

Have you been charged with a crime? If so, you need to hire an attorney to assist you right away. The sooner you hire an attorney the better. If you have not been charged with a crime, there is not much you can do at this point.
The cop lied saying I tried to get back in my vehicle and that then he tased me. Really he walked me out in the field and beat the crap out of me and tased me out there. Four months later I get a warrant for drug possession, resisting, and obstruction. Grounds for dismissal?

I agree with Mr. Ooink. You need an experienced criminal defense lawyer to help you.
While many police officers don't lie, there are some who lie all the time. That being said, in most cases, this is a credibility contest at trial. One thing I've had a number of clients approach... View More

That’s a tough one. It’s no surprise you weren’t able to find anything. Due process is a constitutional protection against the taking of one’s life, liberty, or property by the government without first applying certain legal measures. It’s hard to see the connection.

My 6 month old daughter and I are allergic and need her to go to a good home.
I'm 19 and she moved without telling me that she was even planning to move. Some of my stuff is still with her in her new house and documents such as my birth certificate and citizenship papers are also with her.
answered on Jun 23, 2018
I’m sorry. Your mother needs your permission to move?
Did you ask her for the items?
If she doesn’t want to give you your property, consider a writ of replevin
This relates to 14th Amendment rights. All state remedies for unlawful termination and breach-of-contract complaints have been exhausted.

You do not state whether you are a government employee. Due process is not required in private employment circumstances, but typically is with public employees. Similarly, employees in the private sector typically have no property interest in their job, whereas a public employee may. Your question... View More

Police have already investigated past reports. They go into the pile of dust or the pile that is transmitted to the state's attorney. It is unlikely.

U can generally be discharged at 18. But its not usually a good idea. The state will pay for college, vocational training, etc. Getting married is no magic answer. 18 year olds generally are not mature enough to make a good determination as to a mate.

There is no specific Illinois law for "speedy" civil trials.
As one answerer noted, the establishment clause is a restriction on Congress - or at least it originally was. Today, the establishment clause is interpreted to restrict actions the executive branch can take as well (eg. Trumps Muslim Ban). How did this clause come to be interpreted this way?

If your are a passenger, sure. But be sure to have cab fare.
If your are driving, you will be arrested.
Your pocket edition of the Constitution won't help you when you asset your sovereign rights.
In Illinois driving is a privilege and not a right.
