I call a business who announces they are recording the phone call - can I also record without asking their consent?

Diane Buerger
Answered by attorney Diane Buerger
Criminal Law lawyer at The Buerger Law Firm, P.A.
No, you may not record the phone call just because the business announced at the beginning of the call that it is recording.  You have an option of terminating the call upon learning it is being recorded.  If you also want to record the call, you must inform the person on the other end of the call before you begin recording so that party also has the option of hanging up rather than being recorded.

What will happen if my wife received a warrant for failure to appear?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Reid M Hart (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Hart Law, PLLC
A warrant issued for a failure to appear at a required court hearing is also known as a "capias." There are ways an attorney can assist your wife in having the capias withdrawn and avoid having to be booked into jail, but there are certain procedures that must be followed in doing so. A local criminal defense attorney will be able to advise what you need to do in your county to possibly avoid further jail time while she waits to see the judge on the outstanding capias. Further, any correspondence you may have received from the Clerk's office is important, so be sure to have everything available when you speak with an attorney about how they can help as it may be relevant to show why she did not appear at the required court hearing.
