In this case, you are only acting as a witness but you refuse to be forced to swear as you are not a criminal and have nothing to do with the crime.

So the judge can detain you but for how long. They can't detain you forever as you have not made a crime.

Perjury is a crime only if you first swear to tell the truth then tell a lie. But what if you don't lie but made a mistake, this could still be used against you.

So in court, if you refuse to swear then they can't accuse you of perjury because you refuse to swear. You tell them. No I will not swear because I am not sure of anything and I don't want to be accused later. Since I refuse to swear then you are aware that my testimony will not be entirely true and some parts of it will be false and you can't accuse me of perjury because I did not swear.

First off I have never been in trouble or have had a ticket I have a perfect driving record, I live in a small town in Arkansas the officer is a city cop. I was on my way to work i was going 76 in a 45 mph zone he charged me with speeding and wreckless driving. I was late for work i didnt argue with the officer or anything. As soon as he got to the window he told me to get out i was going to jail. I thought he was kidding. I got out and he told me why,rudely may i add, he then put me in cuffs in the back of the car and had my truck towed. They informed me at the station i wasnt arrested but brought in for bail i was 4 hours late for work and was humiliated is there something i can do???

I ordered a text book for one of my grad school classes and it was accidentally delivered to the wrong P.O. Box ( not even their house) It has been over a month and they still haven't returned it - I don't even know if I can get a refund at this point (80 bucks)...what should I do? Is this considered mail fraud? It was addressed to me but had the wrong P.O. box on it ( I put my old box #, not my new one)

My sister's boyfriend was arrested Thursday night and charged with 3rd degree domestic violence (for hitting her), child abuse (because her daughter witnessed the incident) and assault. He is up for a bail hearing on Wednesday (because of the holiday) and I would like to know if there is a way we, as my sister's family, could get him to remain in jail until his court date in August because he is a meth addict, a danger to my sister and her daughter. My sister doesn't want him to stay in jail and wants to get the restraining order lifted so this guy can come back home to her, she doesn't believe he is a threat but acknowledges he is in meth and pot. Can I get a lawyer or should I contact the arresting officier and try to see how it would be possible for this guy to be kept in jail (or have a $10,000 or so bond that no one could afford to bail him out) or would anything I even do help?

I have also offered to meet at a police station for visitation and he has refused. The last time he took them he called me after he picked them up and told me he was never bringing them back and if I wanted them I would have to come get them. I did and took a police officer with me. Nothing was done about it because he moved to Cali right after it happened. We go to court on Wed. becasue it has been 11 months and he still refuses to sign the divorce papers and I just want to be as prepared as I can because even though he is $3000 behind in child support somehow he can afford a lawyer and I can't.

not just the president... any head of state. does anyone out there know how the law of oligarchy works? how can anyone who understands the most basic principles of this law, still actually believe that an individual person, regardless of their position, is the major deciding force in the direction of the political system? am i the only one who sees this belief as completely ignorant and ridiculous? I'm not talking about any conspiracy theories.. I'm directly relating to the fact that established hierarchies have more determining factor in the fate of a political system thanh any elected leader? do you really believe voting makes a democracy? voting has nothing to do with democracy.... now im just sad :(

I purchased a purebred dog when my girlfriend and I first started dating and had it titled in both of our names. We split up a few months back and she took him with her and I really want to go about getting him back. I'm wondering, by law, do I have rights to him, or does she. We were never married and I paid for him in full, and I have notarized proof of payment from the breeder. I need to know that if I go to court, I can win it, no loop holes. I know the judge will see her crying act and she will say he was a gift and all that. But we weren't married, we weren't even living together when I bought him, and I paid for him.

Any help with this, or information where I can find out how it will be viewed and ruled on in court would be SO much appreciated. This dog is unbelievable and the girl has gotten on drugs since she left me and he would be so much better off with me. Please help me out!
