Q. How long does the d.a.office have to indict a person arrested for fraud in Texas before they have to dismiss ?

December 18, 2024

A: There are two (2) rules for the timing of an indictment in TX.

Once you are arrested for a FELONY, the DA has 90 days to Indict you. If they don't Indict you within 90 days, you can get the court to release you on an ROR bond. That means $0 bond. Released on your own Reconnaissance.

If they do not Indict you within 180 days, you may ask for a dismissal of your charges. There is a good chance the case will be dismissed, but there are many factors to consider. The nature of the crime, the victim's status, and other things. But you will get no relief, if you do not ask the court for a dismissal.

I hope this helps.

Q. Are foundation warranties automatically transferred to a new owner of a home that had previous foundation work done?

December 18, 2024

A: An agreement from a private company is transferrable to a new owner. However, that agreement contains the details and obligations, of the parties to it. If you can get a copy of the original agreement, the terms of transfer will be there. If not, then there is a problem.

If there is a small transfer fee, I would pay it. However, I would bring the agreement to a good lawyer for a complete review.

I hope this helps.

Q. Two years ago, I got a letter in the mail from another state ( Massachusetts) for a warrant if I remember correctly.

December 17, 2024

A: A Felony warrant is a problem. If a police officer pulls you over, and runs a warrant check, if it shows up, they will arrest you. What's worse, is that they will hold you until they extradite you to MA. If you get a good TX attorney, they can work it out for you with an MA attorney. My office and others does handle that kind of problem.

You can call the local police, or county sheriff, in MA, from a private number, and ask for the details. They will help you, believe it or not. If they ask for your address, do not give it. It is best to use a lawyer in this instance, but a call will get you the details of your warrant, if there is one.

I hope this helps.

Good Luck!
