My Husband is charged with Burglary 1st degree, harrassment, and offensive physical contact. Please read below. Please Help.

Your husband has a right to be fully informed as to the possible deportation consequences he may face before he enters into any plea. His public defender may not have experience in immigration law and may not be able to advise him properly on this issue. The Immigration and Nationality Act does allow the Department of Homeland Security, through U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to deport someone who has committed a crime involving moral turpitude, if the conviction occurred...

SPEED TOO FAST FOR CONDITIONS TICKET?

Send the ticket in requesting a Contested Hearing within 15 days of getting the ticket. Depending on which court the ticket is out of, you need to request "Discovery" from either the court, or that Jurisdiction's prosecutor's office. Once we know what the cop wrote, I can advise you. Call me when you get the info. I'll chat with you for free and talk you through it. Cheers, Jim Oliver 253-683-4180

How would I get compensated for a judges error?

Your claim is civil in nature. That means that the judge did something to harm you. You didn't discuss the actions at issue, but I would imagine that the judge either knew, or should have known, that his actions would wrongly harm you, but he caused your harm anyhow. You generally have a limited amount of time to sue. This time period is called the Statute of Limitation. The Statute of Limitations time period on a claim for damages is either two or three years. The clock on the statute...

If my landlorsd barn falls on my car and totals it. Do I have to keep the vehicle in my posession to sue her for damages.

If you sue your LL, you have the burden of proving that that person's actions, or inaction, caused the event which caused the damage to your car. You also have the burden of proving the value of the damage. The car's replacement value is one element of damages. Loss of use the car is another. You are entitled to both. You are also entitled to compensation for any other property of yours which was damaged in the collapse. Insurance companies and juries generally pay "replacement value"...

Can I get a concealed weapons permit in Washington state if I have an assault in the 4th on my record

I need a little more information to answer your question. What was the exact charge you pleaded to? The above answer is correct if you pleaded guilty to a Domestic Violence (DV) offense. If the charge you pleaded to was not DV, you have nothing to worry about. If it was a DV charge, you might still have some options. One option is to withdraw your guilty plea and negotiate a non-DV charge to plead to. To do this, you would have to show that your plea was not knowing, voluntary or...

I was arrested for DUI back in Jan 1st, 2005. However, city or prosecutor's office never filed charges against me.

You can get a copy of your criminal conviction history from the Washington State Patrol website. Go to the site's Washington Access To Criminal History and follow the prompts. I believe it costs $35.00.

Can I be fined for a RCW 46.16 violation when I had acted with good faith to comply with the law but had made a mistake.

There is no intent element in the registration statute. The only question a court would ask was whether the car was registered at the time it was operated on a public road or highway. This means that if you request a contested hearing to explain the mistake to the judge, (s)he is going to find the offense committed. You need to do the following: 1. Check the box on the ticket requesting a contested hearing. 2. Write your correct name and address on the ticket. 3. Photocopy both sides...

Was Shoplifting in 1983 a Misdimenor charge? I was cited back then and it is ruining my chances for employment?

Contact the court where you entered your plea and request a copty of your Judgment and Sentence. Contact that court's clerk and request documents showing that you paid your legal financial obligations and satisfied all of the other requirements. If you did everything you were supposed to do, and the case wasn't dismissed, you can probably go a couple of routes. First, you can schedule a motion to enter an order dismissing your charge "nunc pro tunc" (fancy language meaning back dated to...

Alliance one is the collector for my son's speeding ticket. They won't reply to any of my calls. now license is suspended. now

You need to make a motion to the court where the ticket was filed to remove the fines from collections. Many judges will allow this. Once removed from collections, you would make payments directly to the court. The two biggest benefits are the reduction of the amount to be repaid, and it gets rid of the hold on your son's license. Good Luck, Jim
