Can police arrest my 15 y/o daughter at her school for delivery of a controlled substance if they have no proof other than a statement from another st

Answered by attorney Patrick Short
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Firm of Patrick Short
There are various issues that arise when a person is arrested.  It will be necessary for you to retain an attorney for your daughter.  I would encourage you to not allow your daughter to explain anything to anyone OTHER than her attorney.  This includes her parents, grandparents, ANYONE.  There are legal reasons for this advice. Get her to an attorney as soon  Delivery of a controlled substance can be charged if the fact pattern fits the circumstances...proving it may be a whole other matter. I encourage you to make an appointment with a trial lawyer who does criminal law and has experience in handling these types of cases.  This charge could potentially be a felony.

Can a Child Protective Services determination of abuse trigger a criminal charge?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
If the criminal case was dismissed then I doubt any further criminal charges. However, CPS ca still take away your kids if abuse occurred. You need to hire a CPS attorney to fight for your kids. Or not, if you are abusing them.

What will happen to me with a physical fight at my home during a party?

If you are being threatened with a lawsuit, you should always be concerned. However, under the facts given and assuming that there were witnesses present, you should not have any trouble defending yourself in any lawsuit filed by your "friend".
