He can if you allow him in. My recommendation is to ask what he wants, and then not say anything except you cannot come in without a Search Warrant. If he has an Arrest Warrant or Capias for you, then he will arrest you.

Not sure of your "Court" fraud, but a Governmental Tort Liability Action is 1 year from injury. Probably any other applicable cause of action will also be 1 year, except some property torts are 3 years.
And what to put in the lawyer section if I'm defending myself

answered on Apr 3, 2022
That would be "Pro Se". But most of the time you should not represent yourself. I recommend calling around for competent attorneys who might be creative in getting compensated. You might call around in other Counties in your District and ask for possible referrals.

You need to hire an attorney to tell you what the consequences are. This is a public forum, and it is always the State's case, not the victim's.

Apparently it did finally show up in Court for the Judge to peruse. Search Warrants do have to be returned with the execution annotated thereon, but Arrest Warrants can be used in a variety of ways. It can easily be dismissed, yet you can still get Indicted at Criminal Court. You may wish to... Read more »

Simple answer yes. It really does depend on the circumstances.
I live in Tennessee and I pled guilty to a misdemeanor Domestic Assault about five years ago.

Your future Wife does not lose her rights by marrying you. You should not touch the firearms nor ammunition, and it would be better for her to have a safe for most of it. I suspect she carries one or more firearms. I am sorry that you got talked into pleading to a crime worse than many... Read more »

Pro Se, 2 court dates already, did not plead, no contract signed, talk to DA, told me if I wanted to transfer to "Civil Court" (Jurisdiction..??).. Is discovery motion not allowed on a speeding ticket (radar) in TN...??

answered on Jul 16, 2021
Not sure of your question, but it appears you do not know what you are doing. If a speeding ticket, then it is a criminal case.... Appeal De Novo is to Circuit Criminal Court, but a jury is not an option. Discovery is possible but the Court will not actively force the State to comply. A Bond... Read more »
I was arrested but interview by a detective. Without a third party witness or lawyer i also have a mental disability. Plus im the victim of the crime. How is that possible

answered on Apr 20, 2021
It is not an illegal interview and happens alot. You were not required to say anything. Sometimes the absence of, or waiver of, Miranda Warnings will suppress any testimonial evidence acquired by the LEO's.
I work in a gun store and carry on private land separate from where I reside. I am wanting to know if I can keep a handgun in my vehicle for protection at work and at any time I must go to our farm on the private land during these times under the Castle Law or any other law.

answered on Dec 31, 2020
As a general rule no. If you are military, you might get a HCP. Or you might carry it in the locked trunk unloaded to a firearm instruction class (but I do not advise this). Unfortunately you are two years too young to carry a handgun, so do not do it. A criminal charge will mess you up so... Read more »

I am unaware of which specific Constitutional right you are referring to. Assuming you mean to invoke the 4th Amendment right against unreasonable searches and seizures.

What about the 2005 display act .

answered on Nov 16, 2020
If you are renting, the the terms of your lease would determine what you can and can't put in a window. The Display Act of which you cite is applicable to homeowners - not renters.

If necessary you will need to file an Action in General Sessions against the State. It is basically a Declaratory Judgment Action pursuant to Statute, and I believe you will need a competent attorney. This will need to be filed very soon.

First make a written demand to the Chief of Police or the Sheriff to return your weapon. Then you need to file suit for Conversion against the City/County and the Officer that took the firearm with a SOL of 3 years. All this costs money and time, and many firearms are not worth the trouble. There... Read more »
Who would I contact near Crossville, Tennessee?

answered on Aug 24, 2020
You did not say what Charge. But alleged victims are often charged with filing a false police report or 911 call. With no subpoena, I doubt that it was contempt of Court.
Who does the possessions go to. He had no will. He had a daughter and my mother gave her his vehicles . what else is his daughter entitled to.

answered on Aug 4, 2020
If no surviving spouse, then the daughter issue takes everything that was your brother's. The real property may descend one -half to her if the mother and brother were tenants in common. But it would be very different if it was a LE/REM deed or to the survivor. You will need a lawyer to... Read more »
