What Are Your Rights When You’re Pulled Over?

A whole lot of things can happen while a person is driving. One thing that most drivers would prefer to avoid is getting pulled over. Unfortunately, sometimes things happen, and the driver makes a mistake. Sometimes, as far as the driver knows, they didn’t do anything wrong but find themselves getting pulled over anyways.

When a person gets pulled over, it is important for them to remember that they do have rights. These rights help protect a person from an officer who might be abusing their power. If a person’s rights are violated, they can take the matter to court.

Passenger Rights During The Stop

When someone has been pulled over by the police, they have two primary rights:

The right to remain silent.

The right to be free from unreasonable search and seizures.

The first righ...

Is Prop 47 Helping Or Hurting California?

All the way back in 2014, California voters chose to enact Proposition 47. Prop 47 was billed as a way of making the punishment aspect of law and punishment fairer for many nonviolent offenses. With the passing of this proposition, certain crimes were reduced from felonies to misdemeanors.

By doing this, politicians hoped to reduce the amount of inmates in incarceration and save the state some money. The saved money would then be directed toward different services in an attempt to prevent people from turning to crime in the first place, and help rehabilitate those that had. Unfortunately, after 6 years, it is beginning to look more and more like the idea backfired.

What Prop 47 Was Meant To Do?

Prop 47’s primary concern was dealing with the overcrowding of California’s jail and prison sys...

The Top 20 Safest Cities In California

When people are looking to move, they always want to make sure that the place they are moving to is safe. Figuring out if a particular city is safe, comparing it to other cities, they need to look at a professionally done study.

How The List Was Created

There are several ways that cities can be ranked in safety. Each study conducts itself a little differently than others. However, they all typically have a few similarities. Every study will examine the violent and property crime statistics for each city. What differs is how much they weigh those crimes when calculating the city’s safety.

SafeWise created its list by referencing The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program...

Where To Find Answers About Bail

When you have questions about a subject, one that you need to deal with, you look for answers. The best place to find answers are from a professional, but sometimes talking to a professional can be inconvenient. Most professionals only want to talk during normal business hours, but that isn’t very helpful when you suddenly find yourself in need of their help outside of those hours.

This is often what happens when someone is arrested. The arrest never occurs at a convenient time and suddenly you find yourself needing to know more about bail in the middle of the night. You don’t want to wait until morning to get answers. The longer you wait, the more time your loved one spends behind bars.

This is why our bail agents are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (including holidays)...

Why Can’t Minors Be Bailed Out Of Jail?

Bail is a confusing and unknown subject to a lot of people. Most people don’t think about one of their friends or family members getting arrested, so they don’t even consider to learn how they would bail a person out of jail. In most instances, this is just for adults. Many parents may not even consider the possibility of their child being arrested.

Unfortunately, sometimes kids do push the boundaries of the law too far and wind up in big trouble. This is when parents begin to freak out. What are they going to do? How do they help their child? No one wants someone that they care about to be stuck behind bars, and this is especially true when that someone is a child. However, can minors even be bailed out?

When minors get into trouble with the law, they do not...

California Labor Laws That Employees Should Know About

Most people work hard to earn money. They need it to pay for groceries, gas, bills and anything else they might want to purchase. Money is a precious commodity that everyone is always trying to get more of. Some people get more money by working harder. Others get it by taking advantage of people.

Things can be particularly bad when it is an employer that is taking advantage of its employees. This can lead to employees getting paid less than what they are owed for the work they did. To prevent this from happening, the state of California has several labor laws meant to protect employees from dishonest employers.

Bad Employers Do Exist

Some of the basics that California’s labor laws cover include minimum wage, overtime and requiring employees to work off the clock...

Don’t Get Caught Trespassing On California Beaches

Everyone knows what trespassing is; however, there can be a bit of a gray area for people when it comes to certain locations. Some locations make sense, such as stores and restaurants. Some locations, on the other hand, seem impossible to close. How can you close a location that doesn’t have a ceiling, walls or even fences? This is what many people wonder when they hear that parks are closed.

As people grapple with constant closures of places like local parks. A big talking point right now is the closure of state beaches, which is becoming more and more upsetting as the weather warms. People want to go and cool off with their favorite beach activities, but it isn’t safe to do so. Just because a place doesn’t have a fence, doesn’t mean it can’t be closed...

Do You Know What Co-Signers Are?

When people are dealing with bail for the first time, many are facing a lot of unknowns. One unknown that can confuse people is the concept of co-signers. This isn’t a term people use daily, so what does it mean?

When it comes to posting bail with a bail bond, there is a contract that has to be signed by the client. By signing the contract, the client agrees to pay the full price of the bail bond in return for having their loved one bailed out of jail. They also agree to make sure that their loved one makes it to all of their court dates. Naturally, the person who signs the paperwork is referred to as the signer.

When it comes to bail bonds, there can be more than one signer for the bond. In this case, the people are referred to as co-signers...
