    Civil demand

    If you do not pay it it is possible you will get additional threats only. It is also possible that the matter will go to collections or that you will be sued. If either of those happens you may be liable for much, much more than the original demand.

    How long after a closed DCFS case do they monitor the parents?

    You are not banned from having additional children. Unless the reason you lost your children puts any new child at grave risk of harm, I doubt that DCFS will be paying attention or care even if you do come to their attention. They MIGHT keep an eye on you, but, they have no legitimate right to...

    Criminal Trials, Hearings Can't locate case info.

    Those records may no longer exist anywhere. The first place to check might be at the court where the case was tried - if you can determine it. Since you don't seem to know WHEN it occurred, or even the spelling of the name of the subject you are looking into, you may be on a fool's errand. To...

    Criminal Attorneys, Public Defenders What no evidence!

    Your friend needs an attorney. His story (as you relate here) is weak and likely will have a number of holes in it - especially when his companions weave a different tale at trial. Your friend should speak to his attorney on the matter and ONLY to his attorney. Friends and family (except...

    ex gf holding my property

    She cannot legally hold property that she acknowledges is yours. We call that "theft" out here. You can call the police and make a report, you can sue her in small claims court, you can plead and cajole her if you can track her down, or you can write the stuff off ... or, any combination of...

    Driving priviledges

    Maybe the wife needs to hide the keys real well.

    Can a City gov't employer eliminate a position & reassign the work?

    I actually have seen specific positions covered under MOUs, but rather than prohibiting their elimination, they become meet-and-confer issues (which means that the city can meet, say it's gone, and it's done). More than likely if it is addressed at all, the MOU or personnel rules will cover how...

    Can a City gov't employer eliminate a position & reassign the work?

    But, if it were in the agreement they might be bound to have it filled. Out here, unless the position is covered by the MOU or there is a contractual obligation to address the elimination and/or transfer of a person from that position, the administration can decide to eliminate a position as...

    Driving priviledges

    From an enforcement perspective, it might not matter whether it was pre-marriage or not. She's in CA and the local agency may not take a stolen vehicle report from a wife against a husband even if she is the sole registered owner.

    Driving priviledges

    So can I ... I want to know why the OP doesn't want him driving it. There may be no easy LEGAL recourse to prevent him from driving the car unless she separates from him.

    Driving priviledges

    I suppose she can hide the keys from him, but it is very doubtful that she could successfully report it as stolen if he drives off with it. Why would she want to keep him from driving it?

    Can a City gov't employer eliminate a position & reassign the work?

    Unless the position or positions, or such a reclassification is covered in your contract with the city, yes, the city CAN eliminate the position. Unless you can show that this action is somehow punitive against you for some protected activity, then you have little recourse except to accept or...

    falsely accused

    Suing the accuser would be very, very hard. The OP would have to prove intent, and perhaps even malice as well.

    Drivers License

    If your IL driving privilege was suspended, then it was unlawful for you to drive in IL even if you now have a valid IN license. The reason your judgement was attached to your IL license that you no longer had was because the state will connect you to a state-generated number for any traffic...

    falsely accused

    If you know who actually did it and the police do not, provide that info to the police. If you know who did it and have the financial resources to sue him, consult an attorney and consider a lawsuit ... though, keep in mind that it might cost at least $20,000 to sue someone and if he can't pay...

    help

    If the police come for him and believe you have been profiting from or assisting him in his criminal activity or in avoiding the police, you can be charged with a crime. You might consider speaking with an attorney and then arranging for the police to come and hook him up to show your...

    Other Criminal Procedure License plate check - fictional scenario

    Assuming that the TX DMV does not provide any means for you to pay for the information from a license plate provided to them, there may be little LEGAL avenue for your protagonist to discover the identity of the registered owner of the vehicle. Now, she can certainly call the police about a...

    Genetic Testing and DUI

    I cannot see that genetic testing would have any impact at all, and psychiatric opinions might provide for a proper program while incarcerated, but I don't see how it would mitigate any of the penalty you face. Sooo ... how is it that you are going to a FEDERAL prison in the United States for...

    FI Hypothetical & Traffic Stop

    But, if Crystal was upset, it won't matter as to the motivation ... the officer still unlawfully detained Crystal. Now a court might find that there was no intent to deprive of her freedom such that a crime has been met, but, that might depend on the specifics of the unnamed state's laws on the...
