    The first bit of advice is that he should have an immigration attorney work with hiim immediately. Charges such as these, if he is convicted are very difficult to get any sort of second chance by an immigration judge given the nature of the crime. The result of the immigration ourt case always depends on the result of the criminal court case. If the criminal court case is finished and he was convicted of conspiracy to transport aliens he may have very little shot at not being deported.....

    This is a matter of preference not of law, all I will say is that generally easier to get your license back afterwards if you have a conditional for some odd reason from DMV

    This is not a criminal defense question but I see no reason why you can not contact your credit card directly and ask them to deny the charge...

    Yes, she does have legal rights even without a lease... You will likely have to file for eviction trough a local landlord tenant court. Speak to a landlord tenant attorney in your immediate area right away

    Any felony punishable by over one year of prison, where the actual sentence was a year or above is technically a deportable offense. Once he is picked up by ICE he will undergo removal proceedings and may likely not even be entitled to them based on this conviction.

    While I sympathize with you situation this would be a better question asked of his attorney... He likely was appointed CJA counsel. The three week time frame for discovery is actually better than most cases. I would suggest that you keep in communication with your sons attorney throughout the entirety of the proceedings, but keep in mind that your sons attorney does not have to share all information with you... Actually, he is legally bound not to share anything with you unless specifically...

    Yes, you can be charged criminally and have a family petition filed against you based on the same exact circumstances... Generally, the family court case is considered civil and not criminal and as a result there is no issue.

    you should immediately seek to speak to a lawyer... If you cant afford to hire one then you will be appointed an attorney on the date you show up for your DAT. This is a serious charge, however given the fact you were issued a DAT i would assume, based on my experience, that jail time is highly unlikely

  9. What days count on cpl 30.30 clock are weekends included? Or it's just business days?

    This is a very tough question to answer, all days count however they don't ALL count in that it's only the time the prosecutor actually asks for that counts... For example, of the case is adjourned for two month but the prosecutor only asked for 2 weeks only those two weeks count, not the other six weeks... Speak to your attorney and ask directly how much 30.30 time he believes you have left.

    As to my understanding it all counts at the same time.. however you should confirm that with DMV as that is wholly within their realm of control and y office usually does not hanlde that aspect of DUI cases...
