I would like clarification on ‘no contact’. Most of the No Contact Orders that I’ve read, include home, work, family etc. Does this mean just no communication with the person or does it mean they cannot be present at the same time, at the same location, in proximity?

Does a police officer or private investigator have the right to turn off your electrical power to your home if they have a warrant for your arrest?

Good morning,

My husband was arrested last night but released on a summons to appear. This is the situation. He left for work around 11:00 pm he has a janitorial cleaning service where he cleans office buildings at night. He left the house around 10:30 pm to pick-up an employee for work. Went to get him after arriving at the employees house the guy was sick so in-turn he went to get someone else who lives in the neighborhood where his mother lives. While the person was ready getting ready to accompany him another gentleman that my husband went to school with asked him if he could use his car to take his girl home. My husband and a group of guy friends were standing outside in front of his mother’s house talking. After about 15-20 minutes later the guy returned my husband’s car and he left. My husband went to the gas station to get something to drink (soda/water) and something sweet. The police officers put their lights on him and asked that he stay in the car. My husband replied –what did I do? They informed him that he idled them my husband did not know what they were talking about they searched his car everything was in order. Matter-of-fact they had called the tow company then I asked if I could drive the car home and they let me take it.

We spend about 2 hours at the magistrate office and he was released. The police officer said that they saw the driver with back of his head grey headed male. My husband informed them that it was not him. I am thinking that when he loaned his vehicle to this guy something happened with the guy and officers are no longer required to chase so they took the description of the car and when they saw it at the gas station they arrested him.

What are we to do at this point? How can my husband prove that he was not the driver of the car when the officer’s first saw the car?

Please advise.

Thanks
Jacqueline

I’m looking for in depth information regarding search and seizure laws. I’m writing a term paper and I need to know the following:

Searching both the person and property
Probable cause
Search warrants
Etc.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

is marijuana legal for medicinal use and not recreational use? my grandfather has glaucoma, and I’ve heard that marijuana can help him…

Are police officers allowed to search my property / car without reasonable cause? I was pulled over and the officer asked to search my vehicle. I told them know and they searched it anyways and found marijuana in my pant pockets which was in the back seat of my car. I never gave them permission whoever they still arrested me.

Is this legal?
