If my husband was living in my house and selling drugs and got busted but I wasn't living there at the time, can they take my house away?

Jeralyn Elise Merritt
Answered by attorney Jeralyn Elise Merritt (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Jeralyn E. Merritt
Federal and state civil forfeiture laws allow the government to take a house that is used to store or facilitate the sale of drugs. The action is against the property, not the owner of the property or the person responsible for the illegal activity. Once the action is filed, anyone with an ownership or possessory interest in the property can file a claim and contest the forfeiture. There is an "innocent owner" defense available to owners of property. To prevail, you will have to establish that you had no knowledge of your husband's illegal activity and that he used the property for illegal purposes without your consent. You will also have to show that you could not reasonably have known he would use your property to store or sell drugs. There are strict time limits for filing a claim in a civil forfeiture action. You should contact an attorney who handles these matters in your jurisdiction as soon as possible to assist you with filing a claim and advising you as to your chances of prevailing on an "innocent owner" defense.

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
They are sworn statements but the other side gets the opportunity to cross examine you, so they can make you come testify.

What could happen while violating a dwi?

He can get bonded out. SO bond him out. Then he will most likely have a Motion to Revoke Probation against him and he will need to hire an attorney to keep him out of jail.
