Criminal Jury
what does it mean if a criminal case is pending disposition bound over to grand jury?
This is what it said on his background check. The case was from 2003, and he was basically let go as if everything had been dropped. So why would it still say this after all these years. The reason he was let go was because he almost died in the jail from a spider bite and was denied treatment until he had swollen up beyond recognition. So basically they let him go to avoid a law suit I think. How can he get this completely removed from his record?
Pending disposition bound over to the grand jury means that the grand jury has not yet voted on whether a crime was committed or not. After 7 years, it is completely redundant, but for some unknown reason it is still on the background check. What it should say is “nolle prosequi” which means it was dropped with a “no” vote or the case was dropped without an indictment being returned. As of this point in time, best advice would be to have an initial consultation with an attorney within the same jurisdiction of that court to see if he can get the background amended through the Clerk of Court’s office. Make sure when you call that you will not be charged for the initial consultation ( most lawyers do not charge for the first visit, but it never hurts to make sure.)
Best of luck and I hope this is useful to you

Business Lawyers
Can I have 2 lawyers? One for a business matter and the other familial?
Because the situations are both related to me, there is some overlap but I prefer to work with a different attorney on the most recent matter. What is the best way to handle this in regards to my current attorney? Should I hire whoever I want? Or would it be best to request a referral from my current attorney for an easier working relationship?
yeah of course, why not.

Where can I find a lawyer without family law?
I am chased by my rich parents for custody of my children. I do not think I should go in court without representation. nobody knows where I can get a free lawyer? Or cheap, I suppose.
The civil legal aid. Go ask your local court clerk for local contact information. Each state has an office CLA. Also, if you have a law school near home, often YOUCAN student representation through their Legal Clinic. Students are supevised by lawyer-teachers.

Child Abuse Lawyer
Do I represent myself in child care or a lawyer?
This situation is not an abuse of neglect /. It an agreement that was already in place between me and the other parent. Over time, we both come from a disagreement on schedules custody. Do I represent myself or should I really have a lawyer present?
If you are not the custodial parent, without a doubt the presence of a lawyer. If I had known that before trying to represent me things would have turned a different lot. Good luck.
