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.

Is it possible to get a restraining order against a family member who had verbally threatened you more than once?
My cousin calls my grandma verbally threatening to harm me for the second time in a year. Over the past 5 years the cops have been called numerous times due to him doing the same thing.

Justin’s Answer
It sounds like you’d qualify. You can request a protective order at the local court house.

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 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.

What should I expect for 2nd Dwi 5 yrs from 1st?
The case is in St.charles,mo state court I already took steps and have ignition interlock on my car for past 6 months for hardship license. I have been doing great with my IID monthly reports. My first case was amended to littering in a municipal court and I completed my 2 YR SIS without any violations.

Justin’s Answer
You need to speak with an attorney directly. DWI as a second offense comes with mandatory jail time which is difficult to avoid.
