My Son has dug himself a Huge Hole and I need help with some questions! Here goes - He is 21 and has a domestic situtation that has turned into a Fiasco! Mainly to him not controling his emotions and reasoning abilities. Due to this he now has a Criminal Mischief Felony Charge & possible Warrant over $1500.00. The only answer I could get from them over the phone is he has not been apprehended which tells me there is a Warrant. Now one of the questions is can I go down to the court and do a so called Discovery to find out what the Charges pertain to ( which I have a Strong suspion already - He tore up a Car)? Can I also find out who Filed these Charges ( Ex signaficate other or Insurance Co.)? They lived together ALL thru the pregancy and 6 mo. after the baby was born. She left and threatened him with the standard you'll never see the ( Baby) again - he lost it! From my understanding the Insurance Co. was Contacted by her and her father and they managed to file a Claim before my Son could drop her off the Policy. The car is in her name & her fathers - does this matter since I believe Texas has a Common Law Policy. Heresay has it that She told the Ins. Co. that She did not Know Who tore the car up. In the meantime she played with his emotions about seeing the Baby and didnot come thru and he proceeded to find the car Again on the repair lot and tear it up again! Since they were Common law married does she or the Ins. Co. have the right to File these Charges or is it considered a Fradulant Claim (it was his Ins. and she was added as an extra driver)? Hindsight is 20- 20, he Now knows he dug himself a pretty deep hole. The Police in the town we are in said on many occasions they could not prevent him from taking the car because of Common Law Marriage but, can she or the Ins. co. File these charges or would as preceived by the Police would this car No matter whos name it is in (her & herfathers) Be considered his property too (this car was bought inside the time frame of the Common law marriage BEFORE dissolved)? We know he needs a lawyer but I am hoping you can give me some answers has to whether or not I can legally find out who filed these charges and where to go from here. Thanks So Much for your time.
