First you should call the clerk of court to find out if an Order has been entered. You should have been served, but it is possible that an Order was entered without you being served. The clerk will be able to inform you of the status of the case. If there is no actual written Order in the file,... View More

It could mean you missed a court date and have a warrant, or it could mean you were indicted and haven’t been served with the indictment, among other things. Call your lawyer if you have one, or you can possibly call the district attorneys office and they can give you an update, or the clerks... View More

Being indigent does not make you unable to make your court date. If you have a health reason, such as you were in the hospital, get some paperwork showing that, and bring it to court when it is in session and ask the judge to strike the warrant. Ask for a public defender, and if you already have... View More

The standard of care to hold a prison liable is whether the prison staff’s conduct rose the level of “deliberate indifference” in not taking steps to transfer your loved one to a safer place. Contact local civil rights counsel for more specific advice.
Not legally as I have the deeds. Father is alive, Mother deceased. He is claiming squatters rights that he's living with my father over 2 months. Some lawyer told him can claim the property? Is this legal?
I have the deeds as my brother is an ex-con.

You probably need to get an attorney to look at everything.
The physical deeds are just pieces of paper the only thing that matters is what is recorded in the register of deeds.

In North Carolina, a police officer generally does not have the authority to set or change the bond amount. The bond is typically set by a judge based on various factors, such as the severity of the alleged offense, the defendant's criminal history, and the risk of flight.
