How do I get rid of a restraining order that is on my child's father?

Asked by a user in Colorado Springs, CO - about 1 year ago.

Most prosecutor offices have victim witness advocates that can facilitate the process of modifying a restraining order. I would advise you to start there. Every case of this type has a restraining order and that order will remain in place in some fashion until either the case is dismissed or the sentence ends. Most of these restraining orders start out very restrictive (no contact of any kind) but they can be lessened at your request after a period of cooling down has occured. The least that...

Does denver county court in one way or another check to see if defendants community service was completed?

Asked by a user in Denver, CO - about 1 year ago.

You are more than likely correct. They have an office that usually checks on the validity of the completion of community service. I suppose it's theoretically possible to fake them, but not only will it get him in trouble with the underlying charges and the judge on that case, it is a felony offense to fake them. It is influencing a public official. To be blunt, what your son is proposing is very stupid and he should just do his community service.

How can i win?

Asked by a user in Denver, CO - about 1 year ago.

I have to disagree with the previous answer. I would NOT go to DPD as they already do not believe you or you would not have been charged. You can only do harm to yourself and your case by further contacting the police. Look what happened the last time that you called them. Any contact with the police only gives them further opportunity to get statements from you that prove to them you are guilty (they already think you are so you won't convince them otherwise). Do not under any...

I do not want to testify a DV against my husband, do I have to ?

Asked by a user in Aurora, CO - about 1 year ago.

Both of the above answers are correct. I would add that if you are saying now that your memory is different than what it was when you spoke to the police on the night is question (i.e. you might testify differently than the original reports), you will want to speak to an attorney to make sure that you don't expose yourself to liability for false reporting or perjury. If you have a legitimate reason for not wanting to testify, an attorney can be very helpfull in protecting your rights.

Is it possible to request probation time be shortened?

Asked by a user in Westminster, CO - over 1 year ago.

In Colorado, it is possible to terminate probation early. It very much depends on the jurisdiction and the exact type of deal that you entered into. If you received a deferred judgement and sentence, it in not likely the DA will agree to shorten it. If you are on straight unsupervised probation and you have completed everything and not had any new offenses, then it is up to the judge as I assume you have no probation officer. I would need more specific information, but the short answer is...

Iwas in a raid as a guest (one night stand) i went to jail four six days in holding never heard about it for two years

Asked by a user in Sierra Vista, AZ - about 1 year ago.

Mr. Stevens is correct. Do not assume that because you are actually innocent that it will be easy to get the state to agree and dismiss your case. There is evidence that you committed the crimes or they could not have gotten a warrant, but it's a good sign that at least one grand jury didn't like the case against you. Please find an attorney that practices routinely in your jurisdiction.

I have a pal warrant in California can I have an Attorney help with that?

Asked by a user in Las Vegas, NV - about 1 year ago.

Any contact with law enforcement could lead to your being arrested and sent back to California to serve the remainder of your parole in prison. You need to contact an attorney in California that handles these types of situations so that you may be able to work out how to best handle this. Even if all you can do is turn yourself in, you would still save the time you will spend in jail awaiting extradition.

I am not sure what you are asking. If you need an attorney, call several in your area and I'm sure you can find one that will at least give you a free consultation.
