Find out if Wyoming ticket was reported to Illinois.

You can't shoot them (I'm assuming you are not in your car). If you did you need to ask that this be taken down by the website, avoid any questions on social media, and contact an attorney at once.

Q: I live in Utah but my kids live in Wyoming. Do I need a lawyer from Wyoming?
Joseph Torri's answer
More facts are required to provide a through analysis here. However, you should discuss the legal issues with a family lawyer in Wyoming and Utah. It is unclear whether a case has already been filed. If a case has not been filed, Wyoming will probably have jurisdiction, but consult with a local family lawyer to see if jurisdiction can be established in your area. There are just too many facts that need to be analyzed, and you would definitely benefit with a consultation from a lawyer in either...

Robert Donald Gifford II's answer
You need to contact a law enforcement officer, or maybe even your state AG's Office to register a complaint. The squeaky wheel gets the attention, so if you are serious about it - then complain in writing (with documented evidence) to every agency you can (DA, AG, local law enforcement, etc.).

Q: Can the military ignore doctors notes?
Robert Donald Gifford II's answer
The ugly answer is "yes." Just like single-parent servicemembers have to have a childcare plan to take care of kids in the event of mobilization/deployment, the same concept applies here. The best advice is to work this through your chain of command and build support from the bottom up. Come up with a work plan - a way to possibly reschedule or do equivalent drill weekend work (RST). You could file a complaint with the IG or exercise your Commander's "open door policy," but your safer and...

Q: Do I need to get a lawyer for a MIP in Wy
Tristan Kenyon Schultz's answer
The choice of a lawyer is a personal decision. A lawyer can navigate the court system and may be able to provide you with a reduced sentence. A lawyer may also know about various programs that can replace actual jail time and/or be listed on your record. That said, you can proceed without a lawyer. The DA is not likely to offer a radically different plea deal (if a plea deal is offered).
Every case and person is different so there is no best choice for all people. If you are on the...

Take all reasonable steps to protect your identity and accounts. If they were defrauded it may or may not be carelessness on their account. You'll have to speak with a member of the Wyo. trial lawyers Assn who handles employment law, juggle the possibility you can get something vs staying on the job.
For starters be aware that if a bank or credit card pays on a forged signature if you notify them as soon as you get the statement it may be covered. bigger problem is someone opening up...

Review it with your lawyer. It wouldn't be normal for sanitation reasons, but not illegal. Not a great argument,weaker still if you had failed an earlier screen.

Q: Can you get charge for an m.I.p. and/or use of marijuana if you fight a D.U.I. in Wyoming?
Paul Stanko's answer
He can be charged with anything the prosecutor wants to charge. Prosecutors have virtually unlimited discretion. Based on what you have said, he definitely should get an attorney to represent him.

Q: What to plea
Paul Stanko's answer
If he doesn't know how to plead, he should probably plead not guilty. It is generally not wise to plead guilty at the arraignment. If he is not happy with his public defender, he should seek private counsel.

Q: Can I press charges when someone who agreed to hold my belongings in their spare space sells it without my consent?
Paul Stanko's answer
Contact the appropriate police agency and file a report. It is up to the prosecutor to file charges, but those facts would indicate criminal conduct.

Q: How can a adult assault a minor child and not get a felony ?
Paul Stanko's answer
It is up to the prosecutor which charges to file. A prosecutor will look at the facts, the elements of a particular offense, and determine whether he has enough evidence to prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If not, then he will not file charges.

Q: Can a company withhold severance if you don't agree to not say anything negative about them?
David Alan Wolf's answer
In many states, a severance package is not required. As such, a company may have no obligation to pay out a severance package even if it is the right thing to do. Consult with a Wyoming employment attorney to find out your rights. Good luck.

Q: Is it possible to find out if a certain Case has ever been Cited on any Appeals, if so, how do you find out which Cases.
Robert Jason De Groot's answer
It depends upon whether the case was an appeal which will be listed in the law books. Was it an appeal? If so, it was probably put into one of the reporters and is searchable. There are ways to find whether the case has ever been cited. Get to a law library.
