If i was walking home at 2 a.m and an officer stops and searches me for no reason does that violate my 4th amendment? he did not find anything

Anthony S. Simpson
Answered by attorney Anthony S. Simpson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Offices of Anthony Simpson, Esq.
Despite what you see on television, police officers do not have to give you Miranda warnings when they arrest you.  Miranda is only required when you are in custody and being interrogated.  An officer must have a reasonable articulable suspicion that criminal activity is afoot to stop a person and investigate and must have probable cause to believe that you committed a crime to arrest. He may have violated your rights by ordering you into the car, but I cannot say for sure without more information.  You should contact an attorney and discuss the case in more detail.

How do I nullify my contract (license) with the DMV?

Michael L. Aaronson
Answered by attorney Michael L. Aaronson
Criminal Law lawyer at Aaronson Law Firm
Don't believe you have a "contract" with the DMV. But, whether you do or don't, just give up your driver's license and quit driving that way you can begin taking the bus, riding your bicycle or walking to wherever you need to go also, that way when you get stopped in case you drive your car you will still just get a ticket for whatever offense you committed and then an extra one for driving without a license will have to pay a little bit extra but hey at least you showed them! But, if they somehow coerced you into applying for a drivers license and made you take the driving test and the written test than you can probably claim that they caused you mental anguish and a bunch of other damages, for which you can sue them! Oh by the way driving in Texas is considered a "privilege" versus a " right" don't take me wrong, not trying to be sarcastic but why would you want to "nullify a contract" to have a drivers license canceled considering the consequences of getting caught driving without a license.
