    Criminal Law Check bounced for $300, which is a felony i was arrested and then charges were droped

    An expungement does not relieve you from the duty to say the truth on immigration applications. Therefore you have made a misrepresentation on your application. The USCIS often does obtain records from the FBI even if they might have been expunged by the states. It could be that your visa...

    Naturalization, Citizenship dual citizenship

    Let's try to shed some light onto this: If his parents both were US citizens at the time he was born he most probably is a US citizen, too. If his dad was American and his mother only Canadian and they were married, he most probably is a dual citizen. If he was born in Canada and his...

    Consumer question. Please help!

    The question here is to whom the shipping risk was assigned under the contract. In most sales contracts, the risk of loss is assigned to the purchasor once the item leaves the seller's store or factory. That is usually pretty unknown to most consumers, but in many cases you would not have any...

    Harassment, Stalking, Misconduct is this harassment

    It depends on the definition of the crime in your state. If the statute says something like: "A person who makes threats of violence against another or actually commits acts of violence against another, is guilty of harassment" , then both conducts here fall under that definition. In most...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Is this Theft

    This is a little tricky. It depends on a couple of factors if there is any criminal wrongdoing. You have turned over possession to this guy, as you correctly stated, so it is not any larceny kind of theft. It might be an embezzlement kind of theft if some parts of the bike are missing and have...

    Alcohol & Drugs: MIP, MIC, Intoxication Caught buying liquor with friend's ID

    I am not an expert on CA law, but this discrepancy could be possible, because it is two different laws you are dealing with: for one the violation of the law not to try to get alcohol as a minor (the $ 100 fine) and the other the misuse of the driving license (the suspension)

    Criminal Law Canadian with Criminal record allowed to visit US??

    Probably not. While firearms offenses make an alien deportable if he has committed it once he has been admitted to the US, they usually do not make an alien inadmissible if he committed them outside the US before being admitted. The exception is if they include a crime of moral turpitude. Simple...

    Criminal Records, Expungement Expunged misdemeanor - visa received - problems at port of entry?

    be happy they did not make trouble before. The USCIS has been slowly upgrading its database capabilities and has become much more stringent in checking out applicants since 9/11. It took them a while to get the new databases going, in the future one can expect much stricter procedures. The...

    Corporate Law Liability of an NGO

    I assume you mean a "non profit organization"? They have to file an annual report with the IRS, but they don't necessarily need to make it public.

    Alcohol & Drugs: MIP, MIC, Intoxication Caught buying liquor with friend's ID

    That is the nice catch here. You would call the cops... May be it is better for you just to do what he says and get back your license. You decide.

    Collection Service Nightmare - Help!

    This is tricky, but you might have a case against the home health care. It really depends on the details. Does the home health care service belong to the hospital? Then you might want to talk to them and point out that but for their mistake you would not have been in the hospital and that you...

    Criminal Records, Expungement Expunged misdemeanor - visa received - problems at port of entry?

    Your attorney is right, you should not have problems because of that. To be on the safe side you should take copies of all your correspondance and documents in this case to show the supervisor at the POE if you should be held in secondary inspection. But since the consulate decided you can be...

    K Visa Divorce

    The answer depends on where he lives. Generally it is possible to get a divorce even when the other partner does not agree. But the way to get it is slightly different in all states and in Australia. If he still has property that is hers he should send it to her, but he should make her pay...

    e-bay slander?

    You probably can safely ignore that. On what theory does he want to sue? Defamation? False light? He would have a hard time to make a case. Even harder to prove: any damage. And then the hassle of suing: he would have to sue in your jurisdiction, the costs... You might want to send the...

    Parole, Probation flee probation

    European laws are different from ours. But most countries in the world do not want to be bothered with criminals on the run, so once there is a warrant out somewhere they rather simply deny entry to the person than to risk having to deal with extradition and stuff.
