No, but you’ll need a great criminal defense lawyer to extract you from this if you are charged. The circumstances surrounding the stop will become very important.

Yes, although you may have a claim for the improvements you e made to the property.

You'll need to file a motion in the step-dad's probate case asking the court to review the propriety of these actions by your step-sister. Since there was not will, the laws of intestacy will apply as to how the estates are divided.
We bought just over 8 acres of land and made plans to build a house. When we went to get our permit we were told that our land is zoned as Ag1 which has a minimum lot/tract size of 10 acres. Now the zoning department claims we have to pay to have the land rezoned as Ag2 to build on it. Is there a... View More
