- Q. Can I challenge my stepfather's eviction and claim my inheritance in Texas?
- A: There is a lot going on with your question. The basics are that if your mom and step-father have been living in the house together for over a year, and he has no other house to live in, you can not kick him out. He can stay there for the rest of his life, if he wanted.
If you have been living there for over 6 months, and have been contributing and paying for NECESSARY costs and fees, he can not kick you out. Especially if you keep paying the taxes, and other necessary expenses. However, your rights are not as secure as his. Are you sure there is no Will from your mother? You have 2 years (maybe 4) to file and probate her Will if you find it. If you have good credit, you might want to make ... Read More
- Q. Was my arrest illegal due to lack of warrant and vague charges?
- A: I do believe that your arrest was unlawful, if there are no other facts applicable to the interaction and arrest.
In Texas, an arrest of an individual, without a warrant, is presumed to be unlawful. This presumption, is triggered in a criminal court case, when the accused files a Motion asserting that his arrest was unlawful and is seeking relief from the same.
Once the defendant has moved the court, the State then must show proof that the arrest was lawful and justified by law. If the government, shows that there was probable cause to support the arrest, then you are stuck defending the charges.
Please REMAIN SILENT about your case, and talk to no one except an attorney, that will assure ... Read More
- Q. Facing unauthorized vehicle use charge in Texas after borrowing a truck
- A: The trouble is that you pled guilty in OK. I'm assuming that you pled because you got 19 months of probation. The fact that you said you were guilty, makes it easy for the Prosecutor to prove the same case when you went over the border into Texas.
You do list some compelling facts that can help you defend the charges. I would like to see all the proof the government has against you, before I can tell you how good or bad the TX case is against you.
I hope this gives you some perspective. Most cases are not as simple as you want them to be.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!
