Venue is the legal term for where a legal case can be tried. If the crime and arrest were outside the city limits jurisdiction of the Millbrook officer, then your criminal lawyer can file an appropriate motion to dismiss the charge for improper venue.
A small TX county sent me a postcard saying I had an outstanding criminal case against me pending. Called the county and was told their software was updated so all outstanding tickets were being pursued. No warrant yet, drivers license eligibility is still good. Need to find out how far back TX DPS... Read more »
Yes, a 15 year old traffic ticket can still be prosecuted even if the citation was issued in your maiden name and you are now married. The question is: were you the individual who was issued the ticket back then, regardless of what your name was or is now. Request an abstract of your record from... Read more »
I was traveling in Manhattan through subway and someone outside the gate told me he had an emergency and wanted me to open the emergency exit for him. I was unaware of his real goal and let him come in but then I realized this was wrong. No police or staff was in that station at that time and no... Read more »
For the most meaningful analysis of your situation, a New York criminal defense attorney is really best suited to advise you; you could repost in that category. But as a practical matter in light of your awaiting an answer on this board with concern, you would have likely been stopped right then... Read more »
Yes, the person who has an arrest warrant can be arrested in the house they share with another person, whether that other person is on parole or not.
I'm sorry this happened to you. Unfortunately, based on the brief facts, there doesn't really seem to be anything there in terms of a legal cause of action. Good luck

This sounds like something that an employment attorney might be more likely to know than attorneys in the posted categories - if there is a possibility the issue is addressed in a collective bargaining agreement or other employment-related contract. Municipal or administrative laws might not go... Read more »
Your question is too vague to permit any analysis. What laws?
YES. UNLESS THERE IS SOME OTHER TYPE OF DETAINER ON YOU LIKE A PROBATION VIOLATION HOLD OR PAROLE VIOLATION HOLD.

I am the plaintiff. I have excellent proof. Is there any way I can get prosecutors to change it to Superior Court?
Prosecutors have the discretion on whether to keep the case in Superior Court, or downgrade it to Municipal Court. You can provide your proof of loss to the prosecutor and request restitution, or you can file a claim in special civil part to recover your damages.
I’m still in high school and I live with my mother
Sure. Take what is "yours." And if you take something that is not "yours," or she claims is not "yours," she could file a police report for theft. Not a good way to start out being an adult when you turn 18. Can you prove those items are "yours." Do you have receipts? Since you are asking... Read more »
These phase was in my background check for my court dates
"Anno" means the case is scheduled for an announcement setting, and "nisi" refers to the status of the bond posted in the case. "Nisi" is not good. Call your lawyer. Good luck.
Generally a case like this would be downgraded to municipal court because the proofs against the defendant are weak. Prosecutors know that the conviction rate in Municipal Court is much much higher than in Superior Court especially for theft charges.
Theft by deception charge, Middlesex County, NJ. Thx for your answer. However, it is actually being heard in Municpal Court, NOT Superior Court. The charge is for the Amt. Stated. Why is it being heard in Municipal Court?
A very big difference in Municipal Court you're only subject up to 180 days in jail and up to a thousand-dollar fine. However the amount taken must have been under $200 to be in Municipal Court. Amounts taken over $200 and up to $500 is in Superior Court and subjects the offender to up to 18... Read more »
It could be any number of reasons. One could be an issue of conflict, where if the lawyer represents anyone having any affiliation with the village, they don't want a conflict of interest, or at least the appearance of one. Another could be that if the lawyer has aspirations of handling work for... Read more »
If I hadn't been able to pay my property taxes for 8 yrs (and assuming they haven't foreclosed), at $1,100 a yr, what would the total bill be at the end of 8 years, with interest at 1% a month and 12% a year, in Vernon County WI.?

It can be expunged if all charges stemming from the arrest were dismissed, or if you were found NOT GUILTY at trial, or if your conviction was overturned on appeal or pardoned by the Governor of Texas. If none of those things are true then it can't be expunged unless they change the expunction... Read more »
There are a couple of possibilities, but a lawyer would have to look at the ticket to answer for sure. Could be an error by the citing officer. There are jurisdictions that 'share' a court, when one town doesn't want to maintain its own court. I have never heard of them being in separate counties,... Read more »
I’ve contacted the owner, animal control, city code enforcement and local police and none of them either seem to care or say there is nothing they can do, I feel the system is failing me here and leaving me no safe options. I need some advice on how to proceed.
It seems that you need a better fence. Six foot chain link or masonry so that the dog can't chew through it. If it's wood or chain link, beware. The dog can also dig under it. Neighbors have an obligation to share the expenses of a property line fence, assuming that you have otherwise complied... Read more »
In an elementary school the parent pick up line starts to form more than 90 min before the students are released at the end of the day. The line is very long and the PTA has auctioned off the first two spots in the front of the line for the two parents (with the highest bid) to arrive anytime... Read more »
I don't hear anything illegal about what you have described. As long as the school's administration approves and there are no safety or traffic laws broken, the PTA can auction off those coveted spots. On the other hand, enforcement may prove interesting!
