Is it bad that he’s 18 and I’m a minor still and I’m pregnant?

Answered by attorney Eric E Rothstein (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Rothstein Law PLLC
If my math is correct you were 16 when you got pregnant - that's a problem as the age of consent in NY is 17. What makes you think you have to show ID to enter court?

What can I do if I am still incarcerated after a notarized letter is clearing me of the crime?

Answered by attorney Michael J Palumbo (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Palumbo & Associates, PC
A notarized letter is meaningless because it cannot be entered into evidence at trial; it is hearsay - an out of court statement offered in court for the truth of the matter asserted. The affiant must come into court and testify.

Can they keep you after your release date for a parole violation?

Answered by attorney Eric E Rothstein (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Rothstein Law PLLC
I settled a civil case somewhat similar to this last year where the client was held about 32 days past his sentence. He had been doing state and federal time concurrently in Ohio and by the time they brought him back his sentence was up. The State's defense was they had to bring him back to place him on post release supervision and could not let him go until they verified a home address. These are not easy cases because you want to avoid suing the State in the Court of Claims because those judges award so little. You need to sue the individuals involved and it's hard to get their names. There is also a possible defense that a few days does not rise to the level of a constitutional violation. Although I think you can proceed on State claims. I wonder why they are holding him.
