This is essentially what often happens when you let DSS into your business and cooperate with them. DSS is so bad that often your best bet is to simply leave the state with the child as soon as you get wind of them sniffing around. However, in your case that ship has sailed long ago. Now that...

The cops came to my house looking for brother asking a statement from him. They said they dont have a warrant but if he doesnt talk to them they will get one. This is about a shooting. What are his rights (hes 17) ? Is this a trick to take him to jail?

Lawyer up. They can't get a warrant to force a statement. They can get a Warrant for Arrest, if there is probable cause and it's issued by a proper judicial official. They may also get a Search Warrant, again with proper grounds (normally via oath or affidavit) to search for something.... View More

Yeah, Pro Se's who don't know what they are doing try this from time to time and it generates a decent chuckle in the Courtroom. Any officer can stop a driver anywhere, so even if you were successful in challenging the stopping officer's jurisdiction what do you think is gonna... View More
I recently got a copy of a police report dated back in 2009, but it states that a "warrant would be issued." I dont know why the police wrote that on there! In 2009, I called the police for domestic violence and they claimed that I lied when I didn't. They took me to the police... View More

GREAT QUESTION - We've seen this happen in the past, although it involved a law enforcement officer whom was basically a neighbor and regularly checked DMV records.

Legally separated is a misnomer. In NC, one is simply either separated or they are not. Mere separation has no impact on how the estate will be disbursed. So it depends on what his separation agreement and will say. If no formal separation agreement or will - likely his spouse will inherit.

Usually if it's admissable in civil court it's admissable in other courts, certainly in administrative proceedings. Presumably he has an attorney and should ask them.

I need some specifics here. Like the court decision and the statute.
