If I was driving without car insurance and I got arrested do the police office need to read me my rights and if they don't can they still ask me?

They only have to read her her Miranda rights if she is arrested AND they wish to interrogate her. They do not have to read her the rights simply because she is arrested. That is a common myth and misconception about Miranda warnings. Furthermore, even if they didn't read her her rights when they should have and she gave them some incriminating information, the remedy is to suppress, or keep out of evidence, those statements. A Miranda violation will never ever invalidate an otherwise lawful arrest. I would further add that anytime she is charged with a crime she needs to be represented by an experienced criminal defense attorney. There may be other problems or issues with the case or potential defenses that can be raised.

Does the state extradite on a misdemeanor conviction?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
They will issue a bench warrant if you abscond and there is no statute of limitations on that. It simply just doesn't go away. You will not be rewarded for avoiding the police for a certain number of years. Regardless of whether they extradite you, why do you want to live on the run and sleep with one eye open with that hanging over your shoulder? Get it over with so you can successfully complete probation. If not, you run the risk of being detained the next time you come into contact with police whether or not Michigan comes to extradite you.

Does the charge against me is enough to put me into jail?

J Matthew Catchick

It's highly unlikely you'll get jail, but please ensure you plead "under advisement" or under a "diversion" program, whereby the charge is dismissed after you successfully complete a period of probation (usually 12 months) and pay a fine and attend an economic crime class.
