How do I nullify my contract (license) with the DMV?

Answered by attorney Michael L. Aaronson
Criminal Law lawyer at Aaronson Law Firm
Don't believe you have a "contract" with the DMV. But, whether you do or don't, just give up your driver's license and quit driving that way you can begin taking the bus, riding your bicycle or walking to wherever you need to go also, that way when you get stopped in case you drive your car you will still just get a ticket for whatever offense you committed and then an extra one for driving without a license will have to pay a little bit extra but hey at least you showed them! But, if they somehow coerced you into applying for a drivers license and made you take the driving test and the written test than you can probably claim that they caused you mental anguish and a bunch of other damages, for which you can sue them! Oh by the way driving in Texas is considered a "privilege" versus a " right" don't take me wrong, not trying to be sarcastic but why would you want to "nullify a contract" to have a drivers license canceled considering the consequences of getting caught driving without a license.

What evidence is needed to file a Domestic Violence Restraining Order?

J Matthew Catchick
Answered by attorney J Matthew Catchick (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Catchick Law, P.C.
Most Courts want to see at least 2 separate and distinct instances of violence or threats of immediate violence before they will grant a Personal Protection Order. Therefore, I would strongly recommend you keep a written log or journal, noting the exact date and approximate time of all his threats or violence. After he does it 2 or more times, go to Court and request the Personal Protection Order.

Can my 20 year boyfriend get in trouble for getting a 16 year old pregnant in Texas?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
You really need to contact a family lawyer. Yes, he can get in trouble for sex with a 16 year old. It's statutory rape. I don't know all the legal ramifications of signing a birth certificate. You could always do that at a later time, correct.
