You have a legal requirement to avoid colliding with people in the road - whether they are legally there or not. If you run into them intentionally, you could be charged with assault with a deadly weapon (or your state's equivalent). If you know of a protest ahead, take an alternate route...

Well, I'm sorry to say that the officers where you are sound like they are being lazy or stupid. It's NOT "harassment" to investigate a crime. And, a crime WAS committed. You might consider going to the station and speaking to someone at the rank of sergeant or higher and explaining the...

All you can do is work with the police. But, FindMyPhone doesn't necessarily give an accurate enough reading to give the police probable cause to obtain a search warrant for the residence - especially if it moved from there. Have you checked it recently? Is it still active? I would think...

Trespassing and vandalism (under $400 in damage) are misdemeanors. Many counties in CA have limited law enforcement and prosecutorial resources and misdemeanor offenses are not a high priority. Frankly, the officer never should have let you keep the items left in the home after the party...

The civil demand is between $50 and $500, NOT $5,000. So, you either heard wrong or were misinformed. If the police were not involved, consider yourself lucky. Once the civil demand is taken care of, so long as you obey any trespass admonitions and do not steal anymore, this may merely be a...

Still suspended and unable to drive in PA.

Yes. If your privilege is suspended in PA then you cannot drive in PA.

You called the 911 operator and provided the information ... that's not the same as making a report. And even if you did speak with an officer and he took a report, it's a misdemeanor that very often will not go much further than identifying the registered owner. And if the R/O was a rental...

It might be ... depending on the details and facts. If you feel that you are being coerced to turn over property to someone then I recommend you immediately report it to the police.

If you want to live with your boyfriend and child, and there are no conditions of release or court orders preventing this, then you need to ask your parole officer if this is okay. Have you asked your parole officer about the move? If so, what was his or her reply to you?

So, you post a sign in the front yard, call the cops, and they're going to come down and arrest the poor sot that knocked on the door? I doubt that ... even if a technical possibility, I cannot imagine that any law enforcement agency or prosecutor would pursue it on a single event.

You can make your wishes clear, but, the law does not make the crime of trespassing so easy and simple as seems to be the common misperception. And a reading of most (perhaps, all?) other state's statutes on trespassing should find that simply posting a sign in the front yard would not...

As a note, merely posting "No Trespassing" signs is not at all likely to get someone arrested for trespassing in CA. If he shows up and is told not to come back and then he does, THAT might result in an arrest (booking or citation) based upon a private person's arrest. If possible, a...

But, it is not the tenant's service animal, it is a guest's. I am not sure if that makes a difference in this situation based upon VT law, but, it might.

Since it is not a firearm, there's nothing you have to do to make it comply with CA "gun" laws. The use of an air rifle can be restricted by local regulation, however. So, you might want to check with the local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction wherever you intend to use it so that you...

If dad has sole physical custody as ordered by the court, NO, you CANNOT just go and pick them up. (Unless, of course, it is your court-ordered visitation day, and then you must return them when that time is up.) As I mentioned, hire legal counsel (or try and do it yourself) and return to...

Who has a court determined has primary physical and/or legal custody? Do you have any rights to the children at all? If he has not seen or cared for the children and has apparently "abandoned" them, then you may want to obtain legal counsel and return to Family Court to seek custody ...

COULD you be arrested? It's a possibility. Possession is a crime of dominion and control, not ownership. So, if you know about it and where it is, then you might also be charged with a crime. And, if you have any children, you and hubbie might also find yourself subject to child endangerment...

Unless the investigators left out relevant information that was known to them at the time, if the warrant states that they can search all rooms on the proiperty and aforementioned items such as cell phones, then they can do just as the warrant commands. Your attorney can obtain a copy of the...

Absent a court order or a condition of parole, he is free to do as he pleases if he is no longer under such supervision. You might consider applying for a restraining order to prevent future contact ... provided you are one of his victims. If you are not one of his victims, you may find it...
