Don't know your state but you may want to ask your local Department of Motor Vehicles about this since I believe there are different levels of moving violations.

What was the reason given why the error wasn't a good excuse? The challenge is this - it may be within the discretion of the judge since the friend should have known how long the probationary period is. Hiring an attorney may help as for various reasons I'd rather not delve into, it may soften...

You might want to negotiate this although usually it only occurs if you appear in court. I've never had a parking ticket with fees that weren't reduced. Perhaps communicating with the department of motor vehicles in Inyo County can be of more assistance.

Since 9/11 I've become much more involved in doing pro bono type work. This place is very comfortable and serves a purpose and I don't feel like I'm inundated with ads. Wow, it's really progressed since my last post a little while ago.

This sounds like a small claims case. Just go to the small claims court and get a form to fill out. It is extremely simple and requires virtually no guidance -- you should just state the reason for the complaint with some clarity so that the defendant can know what the complaint is about and not...

I'd find it hard to believe if the guy didn't go back in for more time if convicted of the crime. Regarding the girl, I don't know. It's a serious offense from what I'm gathering. This wasn't just a few dollars but more like a larger spree. Not knowing the details of the case or what she is...

The joys of law... terminology. A "Notice of Motion" is providing the other party or parties with a notice that a motion is being made in front of the Court and specifies information as to the hearing date and place when and where the motion is to be heard. An "objection" can be a number of...

If it was me, I would file for the restraining order and follow through with all the processes, some of which you have begun. Without doing so the alternative is far, far worse even though you might not see that. You should also report the abuse to child protective services in your area. You...

Who can't get rid of her? Is your roomate behind you? If he is, hasn't he asked her to leave?

I'm not sure what your question is or whether you are just reporting an unfortunate incident. I wouldn't know why the attorney got a "bonus" for getting you to accept the plea. Some of it doesn't make sense. If there was a real conflict of interest and you feel that the attorney gave you...

You have a very complex case. It would involve someone looking over the documents and those would likely be voluminous. I wish there was more someone could say. There are frequently problems with homeonwners associations and the ridiculous bylaws they create. However, I do not believe that...

Why don't you do a search? :) There are many different situations.

I don't think anyone here can give any better legal advice than your lawyer, who knows all the facts of your case. While I can understand you hoping for a different answer, I don't know that there is one. Good luck to both of you and hope it all works out.

I believe that you are not allowed to buy land in certain areas, such as land near the waterfront. You can find out more from the local consulate regarding the specifics.

You will likely need to contact the US Consolate in Canada. A search here should provide you with a great deal of information regarding the process. Before a person with a green card can obtain US citizenship, US law requires that a person must be physically present in the US for (1) at least...

Have you left him? Regardless of any legal issues, you should leave immediately for your safety. I have seen too many cases of women being "unable to leave" for fear of retaliation. It only gets worse if you stay. Leave now, get an order of protection and file for divorce or at least legally...

I don't know what state you are in. If you have the ability to prove the fact that you spent $1,800 this might help you in court if you ever get there. The problem is that I doubt that you have a lemon law case. Typically this applies only within the first few years of ownership and...

I'm confused. Were you contacted by the parks department, a book publisher, or people who wanted to be your agent and were looking for talent? You may want to speak to a lawyer to look over this contract you signed with them. Honestly, something sounds a little fishy and I wonder if they have...

Sorry to hear about the problem. I don't think anyone can answer which way things could go except I might liken buying a dog like buying a used car, although that might not be the analogy one would like to hear! Unless there are any other terms agreed upon, such as buying the animal/vehicle...

It depends upon the state you are in. In New York the time length (I think) is 20 years. The real significant time limits involved are in bringing your case and it is done that way so that the facts are fresh. Once the case is decided, the perception is that we have made a proper decision and...
