However, there is a process that must be followed and it requires approval of both the sending (Indiana) and receiving (New Jersey) states as well as payment for f a required transfer fee....

The Indiana judge said for him to be released Friday but he didn’t get out. Will the feds come get him or will they wait for the case here to be resolved?
answered on Jun 13, 2022
The US Marshall's Office has likely put a detainer on him to keep him from being released. They will come get him from his current location when they get around to it. They may wait until the current state case is resolved. They may not. The detainer will prevent him from bonding out in the... View More
If an expert would verify that a criminal investigation recording has been edited by law-enforcement can it be suppressed or is that an issue that has to wait to go to trial? Thank you for your time.
answered on May 31, 2022
Great question.
If there is credible evidence that the recording has been manipulated, your attorney should file both a motion to suppress and a motion in limine.
The motion to suppress would argue that the evidence is inadmissible on several different grounds including fraud upon... View More

Like many questions posted in this and other web forums, this question is one best discussed privately with an attorney where the conversation is privileged.
With that said, all the government is required to do is present sufficient evidence to firmly convince the jury of all the elements... View More

Being labeled as a violent sexual predator is irrelevant, the person will have a felony conviction for some sex offense. All felons are prohibited from possessing a firearm.

Step 1 is to contact an attorney local to you. Do web searches or contact your local bar association and find out who can do a free consultation for you. Hopefully, you and your parents or guardians can talk through the case to understand what your risks and options are.

Yes; their status as a prosecutor does not give immunity to murder charges and there is no statute of limitations on when charges for murder can be filed.
I am selling a house as is, the boiler went out causing the heat and plumbing pipes to burst. The homeowners ins is paying for the damage. I'm selling for less now because of the pipes. I'm keeping the ins check to cover my loss. is that insurance fraud?
answered on Mar 2, 2022
An Indiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Nationwide, it is usually not fraud if the check was issued for a legitimate loss and it reflected actual damages that were honestly presented for property owned outright. However, there could be other issues... View More

It has my husbands co-defendant)
My question is why is that like that?
answered on Jun 14, 2021
It really depends where on the docket you are looking, but case captions are generally limited to one name. So you'll often see USA v. John Doe, et al. The et al. stands for everyone else. Some cases have lots of defendants and it would make things awfully cumbersome if they all had to be... View More

I'd suggest consulting with a civil rights attorney who is familiar with 1983 actions. Keep in mind you have a time limit to put the agencies on notice.

Attorneys will not generally quote fees in public forums like this. I suggest you contact me or other attorneys privately through this site. For one thing, in order to quote a fee, an attorney would need to discuss the facts of your case, and you definitely do not want to do that publicly!
He is on probation for 6 months in Indiana but he’s trying to be here with me in St. Louis. We planned on getting married sometimes this year, and he has a job waiting for him here already. Is that enough for them to transfer his probation?

He needs to speak with his probation officer and to discuss how his case can be transferred under the Interstate Compact on Probation.
