Back state taxes in a diffrent state.

My suggestion would be to contact a tax attorney in the state where you allegedly owe state taxes. You should consult with someone who is familiar with that particular state's tax laws, especially since some states (e.g., Tennessee) do not have a state personal income tax. Also, you may want to consult with a military representative to see if they have encountered this issue before and whether they can provide (perhaps free) assistance.

Can police or state/federal attorneys intercept mail during a criminal investigation?

I believe that Jonathan Levy's suggestion about sending yourself registered mail is a good idea. However, it sounds like receiving your mail may be the least of your concerns at this point. Additionally, you should be careful about the details you provide in an open forum such as this one (i.e., Avvo). My suggestion is that you immediately contact an attorney to discuss your situation more fully.

Can I get my denied innocent spouse request reversed so I'm not liable for money my ex-husband earned and didn't claim.

There are many facts that are not set forth in your posting that will bear on how your situation is handled at this point. Generally speaking, if you and your husband filed joint returns, you may be jointly and severally liable for the full amount of the tax liability [IRC Sec. 6013(d)(3)]. However, IRC Sec. 6015 provides three potential sources of relief from this liability for "innocent spouses." At this point, I don't have enough information to assess whether you would be a good candidate...

Ok I just got married to an illegal immigrant and were wanting to go to a foreign country but I don't know if he can or not

Your scenario seems fraught with peril, and I would suggest that you immediately contact an immigration attorney to discuss your options. The real answer to your question cannot be given without receiving additional facts. Please consult with an immigration attorney PRIOR to leaving the country.

What constitutes porn and child porn on the internet.

Without further details, I am not sure as to whether I can give you a precise answer. Your limited details of a hypothetical chat between two consenting adults appears on the surface not to run afoul of any child pornography laws. However, many potential issues may arise as more details are developed (e.g., how do you know that the other consenting adult is really an adult, were there plans to "put the fantasy" into action, etc.). I would suggest that you immediately consult with an...

I was caught shoplifting and have to appear in court.. should I plead 'not guilty' & get a lawyer? What are consequences?

I would strongly recommend that you obtain a lawyer immediately, either a private attorney or court-appointed counsel (if you qualify for one). Although a shoplifting charge may seem relatively minor, the charge & potential conviction for same can have long-lasting effects. For example, shoplifting could be viewed by potential employers as a "crime of dishonesty," which could severely impact you ability to obtain employment in the future. Your best outcome is to obtain a dismissal of the...

Can i get my domestic assult off my records it was in 2001

Based on the information that you've provided, I believe that you will be ineligible for an expungement of your domestic assault since it appears that you were found (or pleaded) guilty to domestic assault. Who is Eligible for an Expungement? 1) A person: a. Whose charge has been dismissed; b. With a no true bill returned by a grand jury; c. Who received a verdict of not guilty, whether by the judge or by a jury; d. Who was arrested and released...

What type attorney do i need?

I believe that the most appropriate type of attorney with whom to speak is a criminal defense attorney. The allegations against you are serious and should be handled by a professional. Contacting witnesses, gathering documents, and other defensive tactics may be better handled by an attorney. Ultimately, you should discuss your situation immediately with an attorney, and I would strongly encourage you to speak to an attorney BEFORE speaking to any investigators or police.

Tenn. Code Annotated Section 39-16-502 addresses False Reports. Based on the information that you provided, the charged offense would be a class D felony. Any potential sentence would be based on a variety of factors (e.g., past criminal history), and determining an exact sentence or the nature of the sentence is not possible with the information provided. However, for a Range I offender, a class D felony carries a 2-4 year range of punishment, which could be served on probation, while...
