- Q. Hi I live in Connecticut I was denied my pistol permit today due to a misdeameanor drug charge
- A: Rather than appeal, you may want to hire a lawyer to try to reopen that old ticket and withdraw guilty / nolo plea. Once it's gone, you can reapply. The problem happened because, when possession of weed was a Misdemeanor, it was a disqualifier for a permit. When they decriminalized marijuana possession, the new infraction was under the same statute number; and that statute number is still a disqualifier for the permit. I'd recommend Attorney Christian Young, of Cohen & Wolf in Bridgeport.
- Q. If someone involves themselves in a situation where someone is hurting someone else, to protect them..are they liable
- A: You are playing a dangerous game. Any “involvement” could be perceived as assistance, in which case you could expose yourself to accessorial or conspiratorial liability - even if the murder never takes place. If you are concerned about the intended target, the safest thing is to go to the cops. If that doesn’t suit you, you could always let the intended victim know, anonymously. Your proposal is far to risky for you from a legal liability standpoint.
- Q. Can someone who was arrested for assault see the police report that got them arrested.
- A: If she represents herself, she should file an "Appearance" form with the clerk and the State's Attorney's Office indicating as much. If she has a lawyer, the lawyer will do the same. Once an Appearance is filed, she or her lawyer can file a written request for Police Reports pursuant to Practice Book section 40-13A, and the state will provide the reports within 45 days (almost always much sooner).
