Legal Answers
380 Questions Answered
- Q. Can I expunge a minor firearm possession record in MD to own a firearm?
- A: It depends whether you received probation before judgment and the exact charge. If you received probation before judgment, it can be expunged now. If the conviction stood, then you would need to review the list of convictions that can be expunged or speak with an attorney.
- Q. Is it legal to drive with historical tags on weekends in MD?
- A: Historic vehicles cannot be used for general transportation or to transport passengers or property on highways. They cannot be used to go to work or school. They can only be used in exhibitions, club activities, parades, yours, occasional transportation, and other similar uses. Thus, you cannot use it to go to your part-time job. You could use for occasional grocery shopping, but not on a regular basis.
- Q. I am being sued because my dog bit someone else's after getting out and need to know my options
- A: If you have homeowner's insurance, you should report the claim to your carrier and they should cover the claim. They would hire an attorney to defend you and pay any judgment that is rendered.
If not, your cousin may jointly and severally liable and you could sue him for indemnification and contribution.
