Ppl at dmv will not allow me to take test, without interlocking device. Last conviction 9.15.11 no where it shows this is required. Judge n commissioner say I’m clear n go test???
Not sure of your problem. But you need to try to get the License at another DOS facility. Otherwise you will need a very competent, and expensive, attorney to file an administrative action. That action could take at least a year, prior to appeals. Getting a blow meter for a little while... Read more »
My son was allegedly overdosed in Henderson County TN during 2013; however, the 911 call was made in another county. Since the body was in Carroll County when EMS responded, the body was taken to Carroll County at the nearest hospital. Investigation occurring simultaneously at the alleged location... Read more »
Very sorry for your loss. However most of what I assume might be potential defendants had their liability barred by the Statute of Limitations long ago. It would probably be a GTLA, and even the savings Statute does not apply. I see no basis for claiming a tolling of the SOL. Your attorney... Read more »
Not sure of your question, but the DOS can charge money and require payment in full of convicted violations in order to receive driving privileges.
This happened May 5th and the 5 days has passed to get the warrant. By Law what is the best steps to take now and should my property be returned to me
Hire a competent attorney who knows what Civil Forfeiture is. You must file a cash Bond and demand a Hearing before the DOS immediately. If DOS does not get involved, then you have to sue the Seizing Agency for Conversion, but it is still a GTLA proceeding. If the property is not worth much,... Read more »
I have never had a problem before. How/what do i do to fix this?
Apparently you are missing some of your facts. But it sounds like you have correctly dealt with the NCIC Check people. You need to get a copy of whatever charge or conviction is causing you a problem. It may be subject to Expungement, or it may be a conviction which does not cause a firearm... Read more »
You might consider filing a Civil Warrant for Conversion in General Sessions. The exact name of the Shop must be listed as Party Defendant, and you must properly serve it.
I filled for a concealed carry permit through the state of TN. After my background check was conducted they found that I was convicted of criminal damages to property- misdemeanor when I was 17, this was 14 years ago. The state has now asked for certified court documents on the case. However the... Read more »
You will have to provide the State the requested documents. The Department of Safety issues the HCP, and if they do not want to, they don't. If denied, you can file a declaratory action in General Sessions Court very soon after the denial. Denial of a HCP does not mean you necessarily... Read more »
Without knowing more about the case hard to say why you have been served a subpoena. But, you should read the instructions on the subpoena carefully. Subpoenas are legal process that require you to attend hearings, trials, etc., and to maybe produce documents. If you are unsure of the instructions... Read more »
In 1997-1998 I received a speeding ticket in Scottsdale AZ while I was attending school . I paid the ticket before graduating and moving back to my home state of CA at the time . Now 20+ years later and a resident of TN for 10+ years the state of AZ has placed a hold on my license in TN and I... Read more »
Unless you have a paid in full receipt or a certified copy of the dismissed Citation, you will have to pay AZ, and copy TN DOS with your payment. That is a cheap amount of money to reinstate a TNDL.
I was referring to what are Dept. vehicles with no obvious markings and regular plates.
Absolutely. Many Law Enforcement Officers drive their own vehicles all the time, and still conduct stops and enforce laws. They may show a badge or activate their lights, or just follow you until you stop.
I would forgo approximately $800/day of earnings, which cannot be regained while serving as a juror. Since jury duty typically pays up to $50/day, this loss of income would present a hardship, especially with prolonged service.
You would need to inform the court of this - not sure if it would be a sufficient reason to get out of jury service.
a close friend she has who is, i believe is 15, his mom knows how old she is and everything..
It is not a crime to be friends with minors. Did something else happen?
Is it legal. My kids are disabled. They are not giving them time to come in compliance nor the opportunity to come up to code although there are other properties as bad or worse. Would this be harrassment and what can I do?
It is not harassment. But you must hire a competent attorney to file a Writ of Certiorari in Chancery Court immediately to enjoin and declare the administrative action illegal. After reading the Codes, you might complain to the City or County Codes Office, but it will be futile. You must act... Read more »
A week after closing my realtor sends me a message from the seller stating they took out the septic tank and I can’t find any documents. Is this legal? And if not how can I go about getting this corrected.
This is too complicated to answer without reviewing your contact , any disclosures and the closing documents. It may be that some misrepresentations were made during the sale, and if so, you may be entitled to rescind the contract ( give the land back and get your money back) or alternatively, you...

I am renting an apartment in TN and I plan to go to school in TN for 3 more years.
You can file a document called a Declaration of Domicile. Check with the county clerk's office
A governmental entity is responsible for injuries caused by defects in its premises so long as the defect is one that the entity was on notice as to (knew about) or the defect existed and was in such a condition that the entity should have known.

Yes he can be prosecuted. Somebody will get jealous or mad, and will then turn him in. You will be pressured by the authorities.
Indictment was not signed
You have an attorney
Why have you not asked your attorney?
Without ALL the facts and other information it would be impossible to advise properly.
It would like going to a doctor solely with the urine test results and then asking how one's health is.
I guess if... Read more »
can they charge her as an adult with the drugs, she was 17.5 yo? I think after she got caught it went from dep/neg to delinquent with DCS. she never went to court afterwards bc she ran from the facility....

If she was charged with a delinquent offense, she can face juvenile court consequences until she is 19. If she wasn't charged, she still could be. She should contact an attorney to see if the charges can be resolved. She should also know that anyone who is helping hide her from DCS could... Read more »
They took grand kids out of a perfectly good home, has not been helping find a place to house the children.
You should hire an attorney to represent you. If you had another drug test that came back with a different result, then the court and DCS need to know. If you had custody of the children or want custody of the children, then you really need a lawyer to help you.
