Sorry but it is not up to you whether the charges are dropped or if the District Attorney proceeds to trial and attempts to get a criminal conviction. Actions have consequences - both for you and for him. You can talk to his criminal defense attorney if you wish to see what, if anything, you can... View More

Assuming you are clothed during these videos and are not otherwise involved in illegal activities, they are legal. Your mother is within her rights to record a conversation between the two of you. Oregon law is more murky as to whether she can record you when she is not part of the conversation.... View More

Yes, they CAN arrest him, regardless of the outcome of your situation, but it is highly unlikely. The police officers that responded at the time made the decision to arrest you and not him. They could have arrested him; they could have arrested you; they could have arrested both of you; they could... View More
An 8th grader told another 8th grader to kill themself on two separate occasions. This was in person on school grounds. The 8th grader who was told to do it made an attempt.

You asked if there are legal consequences for the 8th grader for telling someone to kill themselves. I don't think there is a "Yes" or "No" answer. I would suggest that most likely, "No", because an 8th grader is not likely to fully appreciate the severity of what... View More
Of course I'll try to reason with him and I hope he doesn't follow through with the threat -- but does he have any legal grounds to have me removed if Mom wants me there? What if Mom isn't at home and the police arrive?

Entered, began shopping. After a short time, the manager comes up and says she has me on camera with a sound bar shoved down my pants.

An Oregon criminal defense attorney could analyze this best, but your question remains open for three weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney, it may be best to stay away from that store. They could create bigger headaches for you than the loss of store points. Good luck

Actually a no contact Order IS a restraining order and while he can ask to have it lifted (you can't per se since the Order isn't directed at you), these sorts of requests are very common and are very rarely granted. You are under subpoena and your presence is NOT elective or voluntary.... View More

In Oregon, if there is a no-contact order in place between co-defendants and one party is accused of violating that order, it's crucial to establish the facts around the alleged violation. If your ex/co-defendant went to jail for sneaking out of rehab and is falsely claiming to have seen you,... View More

The term "CPMS" with a number next to a defendant's name could be an internal court or law enforcement identifier, or it could stand for something specific to that jurisdiction. Without more context, it's hard to say for sure. Please submit a question with more context

Speeding and no license in possession are pretty minor offenses (depending on speed and location). Should not affect probation. But if it was a suspended license, could be more serious. Lots of attorneys practice Traffic Ticket law in OR. Call one. Thanks for using Justia ask a lawyer.

You should be reporting this immediately to the police, if you have not already. A lapse in time can have an impact on your case. However, a victim cannot "press charges" - it is up to the district attorney's office on whether to pursue charges.

I emailed a full version of a partial video the prosecutor already has in possession that is evidence to my case. I did this to ask her opinion on if it would help with my defense. She is now saying she is required to submit it as discovery even though I do not want to use it. is this true?
answered on Feb 14, 2023
I assume that you are a prosecution witness or the complainant. The prosecutor is required to disclose all relevant evidence to the defense, including your video, or she can be sanctioned.
