Legal Answers
26 Questions Answered
- Q. Will I be charged with a misdemeanor
- A: If you are stopped by law enforcement, they could cite you with a violation of RCW 46.12.650. This is a simple misdemeanor.
- Q. If I was charged with a class c felony as a minor can I purchase a firearm at 18? Or 21?
- A: When you say charged, do you mean convicted? If you were convicted, then your right to possess a firearm is likely revoked. You would need to get your right bear arms reinstated. The good news is that you may get that right reinstated if you have been crime free for 5 years. You would need to petition the superior court of the county in which you live (if you reside in Washington) OR the county of the court where the conviction occurred.
- Q. I have a detective and adult services checking on my mom because she took out 50,000 out of her bank America account
- A: You need to call a lawyer. APS thinks you had her get the money for your benefit. They might try and remove her from your care and send charges to a prosecutor. I suggest you call a local criminal law attorney and meet with them. This need to be done before you and or mom meet with them. Also, follow up with her Dr and get the record to show she is doing better. You need to protect yourself.
