Q. Walmart loss prevention made me sign a paper
A: You will need to speak to a local attorney. A Walmart employee is authorized to request that you be trespassed from their store. If you signed it and agreed, then you cannot go back to the store because you have been warned. This does not necessarily mean that you are not being charged. Law enforcement can issue you a Notice to Appear which is a criminal charge without arrest.

The officer can also refer the case to the prosecutor's office to see if they decide to file charges. Just because you were not immediately arrested does not mean that charges are not possible.
Q. How to reverse a no cohabitation
A: If you are on probation, I am assuming that you have entered a plea to your case and the case is closed. "No Contact" provisions can be entered as a condition of bond, as part of a domestic violence injunction, or as a condition of probation. If you agreed to no contact as part of a plea, your attorney could file a motion to modify the no contact provision. This may be limited by time limits. It would be best to speak to a local attorney to see if the State might be willing to agree to such a motion. If they are not willing to agree then a hearing would need to be set, and the Judge could rule on the motion. If you both were charged and both of you have pled and been placed on probation each Defendant will need to file a motion in their own case. ... Read More
Q. Someone working at a dollar general grabbed my throat and I shoved him away is there anything I can do?
A: In addition to what was said, most stores will only keep video recordings for a limited time. If a video may incriminate you, be careful before you request that a copy be given to you or preserved. It could come back to be damaging to you. It may be a good idea to discuss it with a local attorney to see if that would be in your best interest.
