I'm sorry to hear about this difficult situation. It would be prudent for your boyfriend to communicate his health concerns to the jail's medical staff immediately and request to be isolated from other inmates to protect his health. Moreover, you might consider reaching out to a local... View More

If the bondsman bailed you out, they are entitled to their fee. It doesn't matter what happens after that concerning the charges.
What's the Statue of Limitation for Civil Lawsuit against another person's sexual harassment in CA? It is about a case between two neighbors in an apartment building, not at the workplace. So, during the past two years, that has been for the problem of pandemic, all the Statues of... View More

In the case you are describing, you probably have two years from the date of the first harassment within which to bring legal action. It is suggested that you prepare a chronology of the events, explaining who, what, when, where, and how the harassment took place, and supplement that with all the... View More
This assumes I can genetically trace this particular strain of covid back to the spreader.

anyone can sue at any time.
i suspect the issue will be whether you can find a lawyer to handle on a contingency or whether you could afford to fund a lawsuit................AND
whether there would be enough evidence to prevail.......my guess is you would not have the evidence.
Manager hosted internal company party while gov. ordinances, i.e. “no social gatherings” were in full effect. Masks not enforced. 9 employees contracted Covid-19 at this party.
Facility falsely reported only ONE Covid positive case.
Employees were laid-off for a month to... View More

more info needed.
you can always petition or sue for anything.......whether you can get a lawyer to take the case on a contingency AND collect anything is another story.
i would think contacting the owner of the establishment would make the most sense.
Technically couldn’t I give unlimited leases just for one day to have all attendees be considered “household members”
answered on May 3, 2021
The one day lease isn't the problem. A contract (including a lease) is not valid if it has zero obligations. You are also limited in the number of legal tenants to two per bedroom. Further, it seems likely that such a lease would be deemed to have an "illegal purpose" and be void... View More
Things started with neighbor whom moved out with harassment towards my family and I. A friend living across street from him then continued to do the same to us depriving us of peace in our own home. This is 24/7 and has been ongoing for over a year at least. Things have escalated, they’ve... View More

In order to file a lawsuit in Federal District Court, there has to be "diversity of citizenship" (meaning you live in 1 state while the defendants live in another). The amount of damages also has to be in excess of $75,000.
From what you've described, you have several... View More

I am sorry that you were going through this. In general they will not you apply for it driver's licence until you complete the dui class. You can call or go to your nearest driver safety office which is part of the DMV and ask them if there's anything you can do.
Good luck.
Is it safe to go to the court this morning alone to try in get this matter resolved or would i be arrested there in taken to jail on the spot?

why did you miss court date? did you not know or just forgot?
if it was a Felony it will be more serious than a misdemeanor.
you should either hire a lawyer or ask the court for a public defender. They will put the matter ON CALENDAR for the day and your... View More
I have a public defender . She calls me the day of my court date and tells me that the court is closed due to covid so no one is allowed in the court house . She left me a voice mail stating this loud and clear and repeated her self twice . she would notify me when the court re opened ,in the mean... View More

Sorry about what happened. I would make sure that her office knows what happened to you and see if there is any way to help get your $2000 back. Unlikely, but worth a try.
Keep those VMs!
Good luck!
She saw the judge on November 13, 2020 and was sentenced for 5 days and so her court date was moved because of COVID and her cell was quarantine and she calls me up today and said she has to stay another 14 more days because quarantine again. Her public defender wont return my calls and she is... View More

I don't think that you have all of the facts. Check to see online if she was actually sentenced to 5 days or just made an offer. Also check for other cases. Good Luck!
Feb. 2020, while at court, I suffered a mild stroke, could barely form simple words, disoriented,etc. My attorney, knowing I did not want to plead guilty without a deal, entered guilty plea to 9 felony ID theft charges. I have several health issues which makes me high risk of severe Covid-19. The... View More
answered on Sep 21, 2020
If you entered a plea at a time when you were not thinking clearly due to the stroke, you might want to have your plea withdrawn. Discuss this with your lawyer. If it was a 'good deal', and there are no problems of proof,for the DA, you may not want to. You might be looking at more time... View More

If you were issued an infraction or misdemeanor for driving on a suspended license and do not show up for the court date, the court will issue a warrant. It will probably be immediate, but there could be a slight processing delay (especially with Covid). The best solution is to go to that... View More
these crazy neighbors have been holding our cat hostage inside for days at a time. They have been positive for corona virus and I'm 7 months pregnant. I tried calling police but they said a cat isn't considered property. Its causing me a lot of stress. I though pets were property, isnt this thef?
answered on Sep 8, 2020
The police are clearly just being lazy in this situation. You can call the chief and file a complaint against the officers. The squeaky wheel gets oiled the most!
To answer your question, yes, animals (cats and dogs and cows, pigs, birds, all animals, etc.) are considered property. So, the... View More
The California Department of Public Health issued a GUIDANCE on June 18/20 stating that "People in California must wear face coverings..."
- Is a GUIDANCE the same and an Order or a Law?
- Can police enforce this guidance?
- What can you be charged with if you do not choose to wear a mask?
answered on Jun 20, 2020
The new orders issued yesterday and today from the Office of the Governor now create a state-wide mandate for the use of masks in public places. This means if you are over 2 years old (because if you are under 2 you cannot read the Order) you have to wear a face mask, waiting in line to enter a... View More
There is a private residence that is co-owned by two owners. The private residence is being sold and a real estate agent is coming with potential buyers to view the home. I do not want them in the property due to COVID-19, risking contamination, and breach of peace. Owner 1 gives the go-ahead for... View More
answered on Jun 18, 2020
In general if Owner 1 has equal right and control to the property as Owner 2, Owner 1 can allow the real estate agent and potential buyers to view the home. Real estate viewings were allowed to continue in CA even during the pandemic (unless a local ordinance ordered otherwise). Best practices for... View More
