Am i liable at my party?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
Even if you plan on hiring off-duty cops and making them responsible for ensuring no minors are drinking, this could still go badly for you, and who ever owns the house where you intend to host this party, for that matter. You could be in trouble if the cops show up. You could be in trouble if any of the minors drink and leave and get into a legal situation. You could be in trouble if any of the over-21's drink too much and get into a legal situation. There are a lot of bad things that could happen to you in this situation; relatively few good things.

How can I clear this sexual assault charge?

Answered by attorney Craig Orent
Criminal Law lawyer at Orent Law Offices, PLC
You cannot have a record cleared entirely, even where you were not prosecuted. But depending on your circumstances you might able to have notations added to your records (see statute below), but in my view you'll need an attorney. 13-4051. Entry on records; stipulation; court order A. Any person who is wrongfully arrested, indicted or otherwise charged for any crime may petition the superior court for entry upon all court records, police records and any other records of any other agency relating to such arrest or indictment a notation that the person has been cleared. B. After a hearing on the petition, if the judge believes that justice will be served by such entry, the judge shall issue the order requiring the entry that the person has been cleared on such records, with accompanying justification therefor, and shall cause a copy of such order to be delivered to all law enforcement agencies and courts. The order shall further require that all law enforcement agencies and courts shall not release copies of such records to any person except upon order of the court. C. Any person who has notice of such order and fails to comply with the court order issued pursuant to this section shall be liable to the person for damages from such failure.

How can we prove our innocence?

The best advice is for you guys to hire the best attorney you can afford. Showing the cops your bank statements isn't going to be enough to convince them you didn't participte in the theft. There are some other angles worth pursuing, but you want those to be explored by and through your attorney.
