Warrant........?
Q. Will a bench warrant follow you all over the country? Stupid mex
Asked by iDrink - Sat Apr 28 08:29:19 2007 - - 13 Answers - 1 Comments

A. If it is a misdemeanor warrant, it will most likely not be extraditable in other states. Only in the state, and perhaps only in the county, that issued the warrant. If it is a felony warrant, it will be extraditable in all 50 states.

When a governors warrant for extradition is signed, will the accused be picked up immediately?
Q. The accused is out on bail while fighting extradition pending another court date for pre-trial. The other state has said it is in the process of getting the governors warrant. If the governor signs the warrant, will the accused be picked up immediately, or will the state wait until he re-appears in court to serve the warrant?

What is the text of a death warrant or execution warrant?
Q. I've looked all around the Internet, but can anyone provide me with the sample text of a death warrant, otherwise known as an execution warrant, which is a legal document issued permitting the death of a condemned inmate? In particular, the text of a federal death warrant? I'm a crime writer, not a sicko.

A. if i remember right, warrant officers recieve a warrant from the secretary of their particular service to serve as specialists in their particular field. commissioned officers recieve a commission from the president of the USA to serve in leadership. commissioned officers are considered higher ranking than warrant officers.

If an arrest warrant is granted for a minor does that warrant grant permission to search for him @ home?
Q. If a judge issues an arrest warrant for a minor does that grant the officers sent to retrieve the minor permission to enter the suspect's parents' home in search of him? If the officers require permission or a search warrant to enter the home, can a minor grant them permission? ---Remember I am asking on a legal basis not ethical.--- I still need to know if the minor is able to give the officers permission to enter the home.

What is the difference between an arrest warrant and a search warrant?
Q. If the police have an arrest warrant for a person do they have the right to go through your and your childrens' closets etc. Your desks and drawers... And do they have a right to wake up sleeping people? Maybe I should clarify; waking people up and searching closets AFTER they found the suspect.
Asked by IchibanShinobi - Tue Jul 29 18:37:16 2008 - - 13 Answers - 0 Comments

A. An Arrest Warrant is a Court Order instructing any peace officer to take the named individual into custody. It gives information about the suspect such as: identifying information, states the alleged offense, and orders the police to arrest the suspect. A Search Warrant is a Court Order instructing the police to conduct a search of a particular property, item or location. Search Warrants can be broad, such as in the case of a search of a farm, covering all buildings etc. Or they can be very narrow, covering just the search of a particular building, or item.

What happens when a warrant is sent back to the town?
Q. We have been getting mail at our house for someone who doesn't live there for traffic warrants. Yesterday, I guess they were doing a warrant check and left a card in our door. I called this morning and they asked if such a person lived there and I said no. So they said they would send the warrant back to the town it was issued from. What happens now? Do they try and find out the guy's real address?
Asked by birdiegirl - Wed Oct 8 10:13:25 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In the future, if you get something like this for someone who is not at your address, simply write " RTS - Not at this address" and put it back in the mailbox. When they receive it back, they will red flag the name and social of this person. To answer your specific question, it is now going to be red flagged as noted above. This means that if this person is ever stopped or questioned by Police and they run the standard "wants and warrents" check, his warrent will show positive and he will be arrested on the spot. The authorizing agency then has 72 hours to either pick him or tell the arresting authority to let him go ( if he is too far away to justify an extradition). I hope this helps and you can find it useful

What does it take to get a search warrant to seize a computer?
Q. What does it really take for police to seize a computer? I have someone claiming I have been harrassing them over the internet, but I really havent. One of my friends emailed this accuser and told the accuser to leave me alone. Do the police have the authority to seize my computer even though the accuser doesnt have proof of any harrassment from me besides the emails from my friend which were sent from a differant computer? I know the police would have to obtain a warrant first, but what evidence do they need to actually obtain a warrant?
Asked by love.heidi - Tue Oct 24 06:55:18 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No they can't. I have only heard of computers being seized if a person is accused of a murder, stalking, or sexual abuse of a minor, or an tempt of it. Dont worry. Youre going to be okay, and keep your computer. Computer harrassment is not a serious crime, if it even is a crime. Take Care, and block this fool from contacting you. Problem solved!

What happens when the state issues a tax warrant on you?
Q. I have a friend who has just had a tax warrant filed against her for and she wants to know what they can do to her. She is going to pay but they have "estimated" her sales tax for a newspaper route way over what it should be. She is working now and will pay but the state had to go ahead and file the warrant. She has nothing in her name and is a single mom also.

A. Since it is an estiamted tax, the first thing to do is to submit the information to show the correct amount. The state will then adjust your amount owed and once paid, will release the warant.

A. It's really not possible to answer this question accurately without a lot more information that you don't have. In short, if your neighbor had grounds to appeal her conviction, it should have been done several years ago when she was first prosecuted. Whether it can be done today or not I don't know, but even a halfway competent attorney should have seen any possible appeal issues and dealt with them back then.

A. This depends on if you are submitting it electronically or not. If so, you need to scan all documents and put it in a centralized file on your computer. Either way, you should have received a checklist of the documents that are needed, and the memo should say how to submit it. This link should have more information. Good luck.

A. You meet the age and education requirements and the licenses will help. Get in touch with an Army Recruiter and start the process rolling. You will have to pass the ASVAB, a MEPS physical, a Class I flight physical and, I believe, an AFAST test (I could be wrong on this). Make it clear to your Recruiter that you are ONLY interested in the WOFT program and you won't be pushed towards anything else. Do understand however, that the WOFT program fills rapidly and the vacancies for the year may already be gone.

Whats the difference between an indictment and an arrest warrant?
Q. Barry Bonds just got indicted today for his involvement in BALCO labs, but he wasn't arrested or taken to jail. What are the exact legal mechanisms behind the indictment and how it differs from a regular arrest warrant?
Asked by drive_scenic25a - Thu Nov 15 22:08:06 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. An indictment is produced by a Grand Jury. The prosecution presents a case to a group of people (the grand jury). He or she may call witnesses, present reports or other types of evidence. The defendant has no part in this and is often not aware of the proceding. Once an indictment is handed down, depending on the state, the defendant may be arrested or served with the indictment and given a court date. Not all states use this system. In KS, it is possible to have a grand jury, but it is not used very often. Here the prosecution files a complaint or information with the court. A warrant can be issued based on that. Most often, the defendant has already been arrested on probable cause and the complaint or information is filed… [cont.]

Asked by Jenny - Mon May 12 13:07:15 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No, That's not how it works, you're getting criminal law and civil law mixed up. If she had stolen them, then you'd involve the police. But you lent them to her and she refuses to return them, so that's a civil issue, the issue is called "conversion" (someone refuses to return your property). You need to take her to court and get a civil judgement against her. Good Luck! Also, Amy and RT have NO clue what they are talking about. Why give false info girls? Stick to what you actually know or you're just wasting people's time and not helping. The police will only do a "civil standby" (where they go with you to get your stuff) if you live there, you don't, this is why this is false information. YOUR stuff is at HER house, the police… [cont.]
