Each county handles these matters a little differently, but the best thing you can do is monitor OSCN/ODCR to see if a case ends up being filed and stay in touch with your bondsman. If charges do get filed, your bondsman can likely repost the bond and set you up with a new arraignment date (and... View More

You would need to retain a criminal defense attorney or public defender to assist you. You may be able to have your charges reduced or dismissed. It may make sense to take the case to trial and have the prosecutor prove their case or the charges dismissed. Alternatively, if it doesn't make... View More

According to the theory of criminal law, knowing about an impending crime and not reporting it is in itself a criminally punishable act. This is called covering up a crime. An additional element of the crime in your case may be the planning and preparation for the commission of a crime.... View More
I said they could do a weapons sweep. I guess they took that as they could do whatever. They found a notebook and they are charging me with identity theft. This happened in 2018. They are just now charging me. Can they do that without a warrant. They have no body cam or anything
answered on Feb 13, 2023
They can charge you with a felony anytime there is no statute of limitations. As far as the warrant issue, they would have to have a lawfully signed warren that they presented to you at the time. It sounds like there are definitely some legal issues with your case. You need to hire an experienced... View More

The answer to this question depends upon the particular facts and circumstances. Attorneys have some degree of immunity, but deliberately lying to law enforcement during the course of a criminal investigation could theoretically, under the right circumstances, constitute obstruction of Justice.

It sounds as though there is at least a possibility that you may have a defense to one or more of charges that you could be facing but there is not sufficient information in your post to know for certain. I strongly recommend that you reach out to an experienced OVWI/criminal defense attorney who... View More

Missouri has a strict law about when a final paycheck is due but I’m unaware of any statute governing the timing of pay while you are still employed. If your employer cannot afford to pay you or won’t timely pay you, maybe it’s time to look for another job rather than wait to be terminated.

If you cannot afford an attorney in a criminal case, you should ask the Judge to appoint one for you. You can also call Federal Public Defender's office if its federal case or the Public Defender's Office in the court you case is in.

Check with the county clerk of your county and find out what the status of the title is. You may be able to file a corrected or amended application without much problem, although I would refrain from admitting to anyone what you did before you correct it.
