So West Virginia law is still governed by Federal US law. THC is still illegal, but some states have legalized CBD and most states can't test the difference between CBD and THC and the concentrations. Unless you are in a state that has legalized marijuana, then ordering THC online is still... View More

If the police believed you didn’t do it, they would not request a polygraph.

Contact the WVa Civil Liberties Union, ask for names of "cooperating attorneys" who handle prison litigation. They usually give free consults and can tell you if you have a case.
JaiL when I go to plead before the magistrate?
answered on Aug 23, 2018
Your question is out of my area of practice, but I believe that if you enter a not guilty plea, bail will be set. If you don't pay the bail, you will likely be held until you do make bail. If you plead guilty or are found guilty at trial, it's possible that you would be sentenced to jail.... View More

Most--if not all--intentional torts ARE criminal acts. Assaults, intentionally running a vehicle into another vehicle, stealing, fraud, and other intentional, wrongful acts are both crimes and torts. I am hard-pressed to think of an intentional tort that is not a crime, but whether the criminal... View More
My friend is a Dr. He had an affair with a patient who I believed targeted him because she has a history of sleeping with Dr's for pain meds while blackmailing them.

If it isn't the state that got it that way, don't see why not. The law only deals with admissabiltiy of evidence that the state gained through improper activities. If a burglar gets documents and turns them over to the government--let's say a hacker gets emails--those emails can be used as evidence.

Go have a full discussion with a juvenile dependency lawyer about all of this.

Probably not, but you should have a full discussion with a local attorney about this.

You cannot sue the court. You cannot sue the person either, because the defendant plead to the charge.

Do an internet search for age of consent in West Virginia. http://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/west-virginia-age-of-consent-lawyers.html

No facts means we do not have enough information to respond. Perhaps is the only answer we can give without knowing more.
There is a female who Just turned 16 this past April and she is now messing with a 23 year old male. I have been looking up if anything could be done to protect this young female cause she does not know any better and can be persuaded to do a lot. Is there an age gap between the age of consent.
answered on Oct 28, 2015
What business is it of yours? If you have enough personal information about him having actually engaged in intercourse when she was below the age of consent, report it.
The young 16 yr old female hasn't been 16 long and this may have been going on before she was 16. Plus this young female is easy to be persuaded in just about anything. Their are so many concerned neighbors about her. This just is not right and very disgusting.
answered on Oct 28, 2015
May have been? You need solid facts to report a crime, personal knowledge as in one or both of them admitting that a crime took place, or that they engaged in sexual intercourse when she was below the age of consent.
I was driving. Passengers didn't claim parapenellia. No drugs where found. How is that possession?

One time the cop weighed the pipe along with the marijuana, it was charged as a felony possession when the actual amount of the weed was only a misdemeanor. Sometimes the police are not so smart. Get counsel on this case if you have not already done so.
We have been dating for ten months. We are sexually active(16 is age of consent). My father is trying to put the 22 year old in jail.

Exactly what help do you expect in an online internet forum? Help comes when you actually go to see an attorney in West Virginia who practices criminal defense. The age of consent in your state is 16. You are above the age of consent.
