Legal Answers
64 Questions Answered
- Q. On probation I was stopped for no reason driving someone else’s vehicle with a clean record, did he have right to stop?
- A: The Fourth Amendment requires that law enforcement need a reasonable and articulable suspicion a crime, traffic violation, or public safety concern exists in order to stop a vehicle. So typically the police cannot stop a vehicle for no reason.
Fourth Amendment rights can be lessened if a person is on probation conditions, but typically that involves searches by a probation officer. The conditions of probation would be relevant to know whether law enforcement had a basis to stop the vehicle, if the only reason for the stop was that the person was on probation. You should contact a criminal defense attorney to more thoroughly discuss the issue.
- Q. If my kids dad tried to commit suicide twice 10 months apart, last time in front of my kids. Will I get full custody?
- A: You should contact a family law lawyer to answer this question. I only handle criminal defense law.
- Q. Find out what they decided in court today on my case
- A: You can contact the clerk's office at the court to ask about the status of the case.
