You should contact your county prosecutor's office. You should also contact the police concerning any new allegations. Whether the prosecutor will "reopen" the 2021 case is discretionary and will depend on how they feel they can prove that case. Whenever you don't show up,... View More

Too many unanswered questions to give you an adequate answer. And you shouldn't give more details on a public forum like this. For now, just know that what could or will happen depends on the nature of the sexual touching.

Depending on the injuries, it may be possible to speculate as to who was the aggressor.

Unfortunately, it's not a simple matter of telling the court "we're good". Your wife can express her thoughts about going forward to the prosecutor. Depending on the facts of the case, even that may not result in charges dropped.

I cannot tell exactly what you mean by the question. Are you saying a report was made to police and charges were not initiated? If that's the case, then the effect of the police report is minimal. Anyone can file a police report on just about anything; just filing a report doesn't mean... View More

It's not necessarily illegal to videotape on someone's property and what's otherwise in public view. You can tell him to stay off your property, but nothing stops him from recording from the street. If you feel harassed or intimidated, you can seek a PPO.

You need an attorney. Please consider your local legal aid office as they may be able to assist. I am sure he very much would like you to settle everything without attorneys; doing things without attorneys sometimes works when there is trust and open communication. As you can see, his verbal...

Hard to say. Based on what you're saying, I'm not sure what relevant evidence this witness would be able to testify to that isn't hearsay. The prosecutor can, in some circumstances, use statements your girlfriend made to police, however.

You should also realize that it can... View More

Nobody can 'sneak' their name onto a deed. Similarly, nobody can REMOVE a name from a deed without that person's active participation.

Your mother NEEDS to get a local real estate lawyer to review ALL the paperwork (as should have been done at the time of purchase, but that... View More

She should contact the parole board and probably the county prosecutor's office. She may also want to see about getting a new PPO.

A CPS history will always raise a red flag. Criminal histories? Possibly, and depends on when and what happened.

A judge's concern is always the best interests of the child, and will interpret any CPS or criminal history with that in mind. It's not uncommon for BOTH parents to... View More

Your former boyfriend is responsible for adhering to the terms of the PPO; not the employer, who has no more obligation to you than to him. It is unreasonable to expect an employer or cooperative to manage what is a personal legal issue between you two.

Does your boyfriend know? He's the one that would need to do something about it.

While this answer may be a little late for you, it's worth answering for anyone else in a similar situation.

The decision to go to trial is yours alone, and should be based on the strengths and weaknesses of your case and explained by your lawyer. It's foolish to go to trial... View More

Not going to be thrown out just yet, perhaps. When you turn yourself in, a bond will be set; be prepared to post or have someone ready to post on your behalf. It would be wise for you to retain an attorney immediately to help you through this process.

I hesitate about the notation "fines imposed"; that implies there is some sort of disposition on the merits. You really need to contact that court to figure out what is outstanding so you're not surprised in the future. These minor cases have a way of popping up when you least expect... View More

How did the police become involved? It is possible for both people to be charged with domestic violence. Whether the video will help him depends on the entirety of the situation; the problem with video is that it only shows a moment in time. If I pummel you, then turn on my video just as you are...

You have a problem. If you were fighting, it doesn't really matter whether you intended to hit the officer or not.

If your fiance says you were defending yourself, then that implies he was the aggressor. And so yes, he could then be charged with DV.

You are facing a criminal felony charge. Yes, a lot can go wrong. You need to talk with the attorney assigned to you, or retain an attorney of your choice before those court dates, because any attorney is going to need to fully assess the police report and any other evidence there may be before...
