Dissolution of marriage

  

Dissolution of marriage
filed for dissolution of marriage and later recieved letter from judge that says its unable to grant the dissolution fail to state a claim upon which relief can be granted?

Justin’s Answer
It would be difficult to say where you went wrong, but I’d guess you filled out your petition incorrectly or didn’t file a required document. Divorce is quite complicated; I don’t recommend that attorney’s take divorce cases unless they know what they’re doing; a non-lawyer trying to make it through a divorce sounds horrifying. I’d suggest contacting a divorce attorney in your area if you want to try again.

divorced bills report a crime

Question 

We have been separated since Nov. 2017. My wife ordered things in my name without my permission or knowledge until I received the bills in the mail in July 2018 from 2 mail order catalogs. The divorce is not finalized yet. During the time of the order I was never at the home.

Criminal Defense Lawyer, R. Christopher Simons Answer
You cannot charge her with anything. However, you can call the police to report a crime; then the prosecutor will decide whether or not to charge her.

MO School bus law

  

MO School bus law
I got honked at yesterday for passing a school bus in the opposite direction on a four-lane road in St Louis. As far as I’m aware (and as the MO driving guide suggests), this is perfectly legal, but I’m worried sick that a report may be filed, given that I was honked at. Could you please confirm the law regarding this matter, and whether there will be a case?

Justin’s Answer
You must stop, even if coming from the opposite direction.

Will 33 year old father be charged with statutory rape.

  

Will 33 year old father be charged with statutory rape.
Mother was 15 years old, had consensual sex with 29 year old. Mother is now 18, child is almost 3 and mother is seeking child support. Can the courts charge father?

Justin’s Answer
You will have to speak with an attorney in your area to get a better answer, but I believe that the statute of limitations for this crime was 10 years in 2016, meaning the father can still be charged.

Can I take a 3rd degree assault that happened at work further than just pressing charges and filing a order of protection?

   

Can I take a 3rd degree assault that happened at work further than just pressing charges and filing a order of protection?
A guy at my job has assaulted me over the most ridiculous thing and I know I can take this way further than pressing charges and filing a order of protection but I need to know the step of action I should take.

Justin’s Answer
That depends on what you want to do. Depending on the circumstances, you can seek out an order of protection. You can also see about suing the person for battery, for which you will need a civil attorney.

Will I have a felony charge with an SIS?

   

Will I have a felony charge with an SIS?
I am currently going to court on a Class D felony 2nd Degree Domestic Assault and a Class E 3rd Degree assault. I have been offered a plea deal of dismissing the assault charge and getting an S.I.S. on the domestic charge with probation. However, I am currently CNA certified and hoping to go though the police academy at a later date. I am still confused as to if taking this S.I.S. will disqualify me from things a felony would disqualify me from and if it would show as a guilty charge on a background check.

Justin’s Answer
If you have a plea deal, that suggests you have an attorney. You will have to ask your attorney to answer this question.

My question is. If the prosecutor had solid evidence why keep pushing my trial date and consider a lesser charge?

   

My question is. If the prosecutor had solid evidence why keep pushing my trial date and consider a lesser charge?
Alright I’m fighting a 3rd tampering with a motor vehicle and it’s been rescheduled twice with the prosecutor not opposed to pushing it back months. If they had this imaginary solid evidence why keep pushing my trial off and why consider dropping it to tampering 2nd.

Justin’s Answer
There are plenty of reasons the prosecutor could be pushing this back, all of them speculative. We’d need to know more about your case to answer this question effectively. Don’t post facts of your case online; talk to a local criminal defense attorney.

Shoplifting, police were called but did not show up in a reasonable time and I was let go. Should I expect the police to arrest.

   

Shoplifting, police were called but did not show up in a reasonable time and I was let go. Should I expect the police to arrest.
I was held by LP officer for shoplifting. They called the police but they had not shown up and had been held for 4 hours at that point so I was let go. It was my first offense but am I to expect the police to come to my home and arrest me?

Justin’s Answer
You can still be charged. The statute of limitations on shoplifting is measured in years, not hours. Stop talking about your case on line and find a lawyer.

 

I have never been in trouble before and I have charges against me that I don’t understand and I am trying to figure out what to

   

I have never been in trouble before and I have charges against me that I don’t understand and I am trying to figure out what to
I have a charge of stealing and two counts of child endangerment and two counts of child nelgect and I am scheduled for a trail next month and when I asked them about appoint me a attorney they said they don’t appoint attorney because I am have no felony charges against me and that I want an attorney then I would have to hire one

Justin’s Answer
No one can give you more information in a public chat session. You will have to contact a defense attorney directly. I can tell you that being charged with a felony is not the standard for having an attorney appointed; if the prosecutor is seeking jail time, you have the right to an attorney.
