    Criminal Law NYClex: inquiry about CIMT crimes

    There is no "law", no statute that simply says: this crime is a crime of moral turpitude, this crime is not. On the contrary, sometimes it is the same crime, but with different circumstances, that in one case is considered a crime involving moral turpitude, in the other case it is not. So a...

    They need a valid passport and a visitor visa. They have to get both in their home country. For the visa they have to show that they have no intention to stay in the United States, have ties that bind them to their home country and have enough funds to cover travel and stay. They will have to...

    Officer parked in homeowner's driveway?

    How would parking on someone else's property violate any of your rights? You would only have a case against a ticket if any of your rights were violated, not if only someone else's property rights might have been violated.

    Naturalization, Citizenship When to reapply after citizenship being denied -- please help

    It is not easy to give a clear answer because the INS has a lot of discretion in that. I personally would advise to file only after 5 years with a clean record, but this is only my personal opinion and you should not rely on it.

    Landlord assuming visitor lives with me..pending eviction

    Hm, then the law in Ohio should be checked. Since I have no idea how the law in Ohio treats this, I cannot help you here. If this guy is serious about the eviction you probably should consult an attorney about this.

    Possible stolen money issue

    I am not quite sure what you want to do. You cannot prosecute anyone. Only the state can prosecute. If the state does not want to prosecute, you cannot do anything. A lawyer won't change anything. You as a private citizen can only file a civil suit. But that is not about punishment, that is...

    Sister accused of theft

    Hm, tell her that being charged with a felony she is facing jail time. Tell her that even if she did something wrong, which she probably did if this was against company policy, first of all she should only be punished for what she really did, but not for things she did not do. But she will be...

    Well, for a class action first you need a class. That is a lot of plaintiffs with the same claim. It is up to you to find them and get them organized. Then you have to convince a judge that this crowd of plaintiffs really qualifies as being a class.

    Criminal Records, Expungement Misdemeanor? Please Advise!

    well, jail time being requested and actually getting jail time are two different things. If your record is clear otherwise you most probably would not go to jail but get a suspended sentence or something similar. Of course, you would have a criminal record with its typical consequences as to...

    Criminal Law lewd conduct

    There have been reports lately that police departments start putting the mug shots of "johns" on the net. I think Chicago started this. Not every time someone is arrested they have to pay bail to get out. In minor cases pepple can be given "desk appearance tickets", telling you to show up in...

    German Divorce Procedure

    There has been a decision by the Amtsgericht Konstanz (County Court) in 2000 that a divorce can be decreed even when one of the parties is not present, if she had been summoned repeatedly. The decision is AmtsG Konstanz, Urteil v. 29.9.2000 - 2 F 18/00, so far I have not seen any higher court...

    Criminal Law Question for Nyclex

    well, that is pretty clear, isn't it. It is as I said, up to the USCIS to determine if someone has an alcohol related problem or not. You really should discuss this with an attorney who can take a look at the details of your case.

    Criminal Records, Expungement Misdemeanor? Please Advise!

    Well, throwing an object at a moviing car can lead to disastrous consequences and get people killed. As a prosecutor I, too, would definitely ask for jail time. Since you now know that you might be facing jail time I would get an attorney.

    Other Immigration Law Stepson on mother's visa

    You are probably right, it seems he has written his own ticket to wherever he came from, and that is good. Criminal activity by one kid has no influence on the visa status of a parent or a sibling.

    Want to get out of lease without paying two months rent.

    Well, let me say it this way: You have a lease for 7 more months. The landlord offers you to get out by paying for two more. This is a compromise, clean and easy. The other option is to start a possibly nasty war against the landlord, which could lead to court battles, attorney fees etc etc...
