Can I file to contest a restraining order that's over 30 days old?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Maureen Furlong Baldwin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Maureen Furlong Baldwin
If you were just served, the restraining order should not have issued without a proof of service. On the restraining order document, there is a court date and time if you wish to contest the charges. You also should have received a blank response page together with instructions. If you think a post-hearing restraining order was issued without service to you, you should check the court file. In order to obtain more than an emergency or temporary order, there must be a proof of service attached. If this was falsified, you will need to bring a motion to set aside the restraining order.

Is a lawyer recomended if I was caught shoplifting and charged with a misdemeanor?

Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Alanna D. Coopersmith
You have a constitutional right to an attorney in a criminal case. If you can't afford to hire an attorney, one will be appointed for you free of charge. You should definitely get an attorney. A criminal conviction of theft (even petty theft) is something to be avoided!

How can I transfer a DUI to another county?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Francis John Cowhig (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
This is something that you should talk to your attorney about. It is possible to have your probation, classes, etc. transferred to S.F. However, you will need court approval for that. Your attorney should request this from the judge at your sentencing. It will be up to the judge to decide whether or not he will grant your request. Good luck.
