I am sorry, somehow I must have overlooked your answer. Your answers show that you might have major problems. As I said above, the law normally excludes persons with such a criminal record from admission as permanent residents. The exception would be if there is only one crime of moral...

read some of the other posts in the forum, we ahd a lot of similar cases lately that were discussed here. I personally always recommend getting a lawyer because he just knows the ins and outs of the criminal justice system much better that you can know them. And when you are in college, your...

If goods that are delivered are defective a buyer has to reject them immediately (within a reasonable time). He has to notify the seller that he rejects and thereby cancels the contract. The seller then has the chance to "cure" the problem, that is to send the correct items, or to walk away...

Yes, as I had written, she can apply for you on the basis of being a LPR and you the child. But she can only apply once she actually has the status, has received the green card, not while she is waiting for it. Then it depends on how old you are and if married or not, how long it will take...

This was very good advice you have been given, I would have advised exactly the same. You should do it in the sequence above, starting with the store. A To achieve numbers 2 and 3 you (or your lawyer) would have to talk to the prosecutor. Your plea will depend on the reactions of the...

That is basically correct. Of course in cases where one of the parents wants to move to another country, there are major problems. The courts will look at the individual case. In a case where the mother wants to move to the US and the father stays in Germany there will probably a different...

No. Legally you can get a green card and quit the next day. That is the difference to employment based temporary visa, which would become invalid that moment. Sometimes employers make you sign a contract though, that gives penalties if you quit before a certain time is up. Some of these...

I personally always think you need a lawyer at every stage of the criminal defense process, but especially in the beginning. This is when a defense lawyer can deal with the prosecutor and set things straight.

well, this is a topic people better avoid. Though I doubt that this guy was a lawyer, there is something to what he says. To be successful in a defamation suit the main element to prove is that any "statements" made are "false and defamatory". Assuming that the originator of this "chat" is...

You have to apply in the service center that has jurisdiction over the place where you live. If you live in Ohio this is the Nebraska Service Center. Currently it takes about one year for a I-130 petition for a parent to be decided in the Nebraska Service Center and about half a year in the...

A "misdemeanor" is a category of crime in the criminal law. Criminal law distinguishes between felonies, misdemeanors and a third category which usually is called violations and is not really part of criminal law. The distinguishing fact nowadays is the severity of the punishment. In most...

good that she didnt sign anything she could not read. I guess you should consult with a lawyer. It might actually be that those videos support her claim that she just forgot the item on the stroller, which might make the prosecutor or a judge look favourable at that. In all court...

That depends on the time frame, the state this is in, the contract and the local laws. Since this is an issue with a lot of money at stake I recommend you consult an experienced real estate lawyer asap

1) That depends on the disposition of the case. The prosecutor will try to keep it the number of court appearances minimal. It also depends on the local ways to do things. 2) I have no idea. 3) You obviously have not been arrested, otherwise the cops would have taken you to the police...

Hm, this is a little complicated. American citizens can "sponsor" their parents and their brothers and sisters to become Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs)=Green Card Holders. LPRs can sponsor their unmarried children under 21 and over 21. Now why do I list these different categories...

This is a complicated question which you should discuss with your lawyer. Maryland has voluntary sentencing guidelines, which means the judge doesn't need to observe them. If you do not have any prior record I think probation is possible, but since I have no experience with Maryland law...

hm, first of all: congratulations to the birth of your child. Second: This is a serious charge. You should get a lawyer. There may be some issues worth checking, it depends on all the details of your story, on exactly what was said by who when and what was recorded or can otherwise be...

well, since she has an attorney, he is the one to explain that to her. Actual penalties vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. It depends on how the attorney will deal with the prosecutor, her prior record etc etc.

Yes, you are in serious trouble. No matter what the crime will be called in the charge, it will most probably be a felony which potentially carries serious jail time. So you need to get going and get a lawyer to plan how to deal with the prosecutor. First go to your nearest office of the...
