We need more information to give you an accurate answer. In general, being convicted of a felony does not give law enforcement blanket rights to conduct warrantless searches.

Additional: The above is generally a true statement. However, if you are released on parole from prison and are under the supervision of a parole officer, they could possess the authority to conduct a search (without a warrant) of your living quarters to ensure that you are complying with the provisions of your parole.

If you have go to jail for 30 days what do can you bring with you?

Just talked to someone at a jail about this. Was told you can't bring in hardly anything. Not even extra underware or socks, only the ones you are wearing upon entry.(so wear two pair of socks) You can check in with money that will be put on your "books" as they call it. It can be used to buy things you need from commisary. (Jail supply store) Family or friends can bring you a few things like your Bible, more money, glasses and prescription medications, but this is a very short list. It bites.

What happens to children if the custodial parent has an outstanding warrant?

The non-custodial parent should take the matter to court. If they are not available perhaps a grandparent or other relative could help. They may be able to obtain custody or guardianship before the child becomes involved in her father's legal problems.

Living with a parent with an outstanding warrant could place the child in danger and lead to unnecessary trauma. First, of course, the parent may be arrested while with the child and the child would be turned over to child protective services. The parent may flee from the police while with the child placing the child in danger of being hurt in an accident. The parent may flee from the police leaving the child behind, unsupervised. There are so many possibilities that would be detrimental to the child's well being.

The non-custodial parent or some other relative should consult with an attorney who can review the situation and explain the options.

What is the maximum imprisonment for a warrant prisoner?

The maximum imprisonment for a warrant prisoner is life in prison. This type of imprisonment varies greatly depending on the type of warrant issued.

If there is a warrant out for you can someone go and pay your bond for you?

No. A 'warrant' is not the same as a 'fine.' Someone else can pay a fine for you, but a warrant is for a named individual and the court intends to "see" that individual in person.

Under what circumstances would no warrant be needed to arrest someone for assault?

No warrant is ever necessary. Any armed assault is a felony offense for which only probable cause is necessary to effect an arrest.

So-called 'Simple Assault' in most(all?) jurisdictions is a "probable cause misdemeanor" and, unlike the vast majority of other misdemeanor offenses (which must be committed in the officers presence for an arrest to be made), you can be arrested for it based on probable cause alone.

Is a search warrant valid if it is not complete ie. missing pages?

Question is unclear. What about the warrant is incomplete, and how would they know it?

If the affidavit in support of the warrant application is incomplete the warrant should never have been issued. However, if the judge's signature appears on the warrant it can be considered legal.

If you are referring to the copy that the resident was given by the searching officers/agents - it is not necessary that the entire document be given to the resident - only enough to show that the correct address/location was being served. In fact it is not even a settled matter of law that the resident must be given or shown, a copy of the warrant. Many agencies do so, however, as information to the resident or as a 'public relations' matter.

If the validity of the warrant is in question, it can be raised in court as a defense against unlawful search and seizure. If upheld, any evidence seized at the time of the warrant service will be excluded from trial as "fruit of the poisoned tree."

What does that mean to have felony probation hold on someone already in prison?

From the info given in the question it sounds like the incarcerated person is wanted for violation of probation on another entirely different felony charge, and when he is released at the end of his sentence he will be held for the authorities and face prosecution for the VOP.

If a search warrant is issued for a duplex do law enforcement agents have to enter both apartments?

Duplexes have different addresses, therefore the agents would only enter the area that was designated in the warrant. If the warrant said duplex apartment "A" and "B" they would search both. If it only named one apartment they would only be able to search that one unless there was just cause to enter the other area. If it did not specify either one but simply the address, it might not be a valid warrant regardless if both or only one apartment were searched. The legality of such a warrant is determined by several factors, state and/or federal law, the circumstances and of course the judge's ruling, if it came to that.

What if your ex is on felony probation and just got a bench warrant for Child Support will he go back to jail for violation of probation?

It depends on how his sentence of probation is structured. Child Support is a civil offense, not a criminal offense, but if he flees to avoid the bench warrant THAT definitely would be a violation.

If arrested on 3rd degree assault and there is a warrant for the same thing what will happen?

If you were arrested for committing an assault and you are already wanted for a PREVIOUS assault of the same type, you will be tried for TWO counts of assault.

Can you be extradited from Pennsylvania to Tennessee?

All states and US possessions honor each other's requests for extradition.

Will a warrant be issued for not responding to a photo radar ticket received in the mail?

It depends on the locality. Most towns with this system will come after you for the ticket and report it to the DMV if it's not paid. It is better to just pay it, as it does not count for points on your license, at least where I live.

What happens if you are in jail and another warrant is issued for a failure to appear on another case?

The jail should book you on the warrant and complete the return of service to clear the warrant. You will have to answer the new warrant before release.
