Legal Question in Criminal Law in Colorado

Theft

I don't know what is going on. Oregon is wanting me to come back to arrest me on some theft charge. They wont tell me too much but to come back. I have tried to call the DA and they never respond. Should I retain a lawyer? Go Back to Oregon?

Contact whoever "they" are and press for some details, unless you already know exactly what they are for some strange reason. If the amount involved is more than $500, it couldn't hurt to have a lawyer.

If you don't like any of the above, Maine is beautiful this time of year, except for the blood-sucking black flies (though many people seem to prefer them to the blood-sucking lawyers).

Re: Theft

What you need to do is to address the warrant and get it QUASHED (if there is no reason for it). If it cannot be quashed, a plea by mail may work. If the warrant is for some serious offense you will need to arrange a surrender. The truth is that if you go to Oregon, you will be arested. Because of that, you will need to hire an attorney. I do a lot of these things.
