This has to be confusing for the child. Take it up with the agency that governs your custody agreement tomorrow. It may be that the father had papers stating visitation rights and you were mistaken, otherwise police should not have come to your door. Hopefully you can smooth this process out so such a eventful exchange does not happen again.
AnswerNo. The police officer had no right to act regarding the visitations. The father should have brought his claim that visitations were not being followed to the court that has jurisdiction over the case. The police officer should be reported. He was likely an acquaintance of the father.
Generally speaking, yes.
You ask the police officer, or they would've turned in their badge,you would see them without a badge.
No. However an officer who disregards this warning without very good reason is certainly at increased risk for a civil suit.
Unless the tribal officer is also recognized as a peace officer by the state where he is making the arrest, no. Generally speaking, tribal police officers have no police powers when they leave the reservation.
yes
I don't think they can, even if they are law enforcements, it would be wrong for a Police officer to do that.
I don't know what or if there is a term regarding this but I do know that the minor doesn't have to answer any of the questions the police officer asks. You have the right to remain silent even if the police officer has authority. It's not a law that you must answer all questions the police officer asks you.
yes. . . . . .i think
There is not really a checklist of things you need to become a police officer with or without college. You need to be able to show to any agency that you are the person they want as a police officer and you need to make yourself stand out from the crowd. There are a bunch of things you can do that will help - Volunteer with an agency is one way.
there is no way to answer without more information. Generally unless there is a crime involved, a police officer does not have any 'special' privilege.
If the officer believes it is "justifiable cause" yes, he can.
I am not familiar with all California law but I would say the answer to this question is yes. A police officer can answer your cell phone, but, they may not search (look at contacts etc.) without a warrant.
