    Check this out!!! Seems the officer went over line...

    What is the name of your state? Iowa Check this out!!! Recently stopped into my local town ShopKo dept. store, where I'd purchased the following items: 1) a single box of generic brand cold medicine. 2) a single box of Kleenex tissue paper 3) 1/2 gallon of orange juice About two weeks...

    Judge erred in overruling motion to suppress

    What is the name of your state? Iowa Recently had a Motion to Suppress hearing that went before a state Judge, and during the hearing the Judge seemed as though he was "out in left field", like his attention was somewhere else. At one particular point, the prosecutor had objected to a...

    What if they didn't formally arraign someone?

    What is the name of your state? Iowa Just curious what happens if there had been formal charges filed by the DA on an individual, but when the scheduled arraignment date had came up and the individual appeared to answer to the charges (..to plead either guilty or not), a court attendant had...

    Question: ..is this legal?

    What is the name of your state? Iowa I was working part time at a local gas station the other night, when a friend of mine drove up, filled his tank, then came into the store payed for the gas and since I wasn't busy, we talked for about 20 minutes or so. Afterwards, he was about to leave, and...

    Roll back search warrant?

    What is the name of your state? Iowa I'm doing research on criminal law, and types of search warrants in the state of Iowa. If someone is pulled over, and police find drugs in their vehicle, ..I know that they can obtain something called a "roll back search warrant" (not sure if that's what...

    $500 cash only bail bond, ...error made by bondsman.

    It makes absolutely no difference with regards to the timeline on this, none! You seem bummed, is it because the original author had actually prevailed with his case here, or what?

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    Sharpie - I understand what you're saying completely, and I also respect that. There are no problems here, ..and if I do sound, or seem to come off in a defensive mannor, I'd say that it probably has a lot to do with me simply defending my views with regards to my (now past tense) situation...

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    So if you had no choice but to have a court appointed attorney represent you in a case. Then, as the case went on (over the course of several years), and you began to learn more and more about the said attorney, ...it seemed odd in just the way he'd react to certain situations throughout the...

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    KatyW - I did, and it has been taken care of, ..and the attorney I have now is far far better than before. Tigger - I don't wish to argue with anyone, but you know damn well what I'm saying. Instead of trying to interrogate an author, why not just give advise with the thought in mind that what...
  11. B

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    First of all, to answer your questions, ...yes, I most certainly do understand, in its entirety, exactly what "conflict of interest" means. I do not HAVE TO provide any such INCIDENTS, ...for what? So as to merely prove my intellectuality? I think not. :rolleyes: However, I will stress that...
  12. B

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    That is absurd, ...in terms of overall "fairness", it makes no sense. There is no true justice if that's the way it's being done. Think of it like this, whenever they're interviewing and going about the selection of people to sit on the jury for a case, they're always very carefull in that the...
  13. B

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    As said, there were clearly not just one, but several conflicts of interest with the original appointed attorney representing my case, and he was extremely biased, ...so you're telling me that you don't see anything wrong with the idea of him having a role in finding a replacement...
  14. B

    This doesn't seem right, ...please advise.

    Alias Joe - Thanks for the link, ...very interesting stuff. But regarding my question, wouldn't it be inappropriate for him to make a recommendation to the judge within the petition, especially if my reasons for asking him to withdraw were based on conflicts of interest? I'd think that it'd...
  15. B

    What do you think about this?

    I hadn't filed any petition, I pointed out several of the problems between us, and he also agreed that we certainly weren't getting anywhere, ...with that said, I'd simply asked that maybe he should petition to withdraw, ...these conflict issues had been going on for well over a year now, I've...
