Is it legal for the police to conduct a vehicle search?

Thomas J Tomko
Answered by attorney Thomas J Tomko (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Thomas J. Tomko, Attorney at Law
There are several reasons why an officer could search a car. The "sniff" of a dog is a search. However, nothing you describe would seem to justify the "sniff" search of the vehicle. The remedy for the illegal search is suppression of discovered evidence. Yet in your case, there seems to be nothing to suppress, as you have not been charged with a crime discovered as a result of the search. You should hire an attorney to further review your case and determine whether it is significant that you were subject to a search which may have been illegal. I hope that this was helpful.

What should I do if I was recently assaulted by my sister in law?

You should contact police. The assault could be considered assault with a deadly weapon - a felony. And, the threats are terroristic threats. You might first record them threatening you so you will have absolute proof since you delayed in calling police.

As a convicted felon, you will not be able to possess a firearm. The only two possibilities that would allow you to possess a firearm would be a pardon by the governor or to have the case reopened and the charges reduced to a misdemeanor. Otherwise, with the felony upon your record, you will never be able to possess a firearm.
