Don't worry, if you didn't do anything you won't be charged with anything. Some people are questioned sometimes, but that's just to see if a charge is viable. I costs a lot of money and takes a lot of paperwork to charge somebody, so officers don't lay charges casually.

Arrest warrants are valid until they have been served. Issuing an arrest warrant is sufficient to satsify statutes of limitations, so even if you manage to avoid the police until the time elapsed, they would still be able to charge you.

Depends on the jurisdiction and the discretion of the arresting officer.\n\nSome agencies issue a summons, others incarcerate you, and some do both.  It also depends on how much pot you have on you.  Many people also neglect to think of the paraphernalia also, but you can be charged with that as well.  Remember also that if you drive while under the influence of drugs, you can be charged with a DWI(drugs) as well.\n\nDear Old Dad

You'll have to find out if you're driver's license is under suspension.  They usually do that if there's a warrant.  If you don't drive then there are two things that you can do.  1.)  Think.  Why would there be a warrant for your arrest?  If you can think of even one answer then, there probably is.  2.)  Call the damn station but,it's always best to use a public phone outside of the area in which you reside (I have no idea what the hell you did).  If the officer tells you that you'll have to come in for that info, be suspicious.  If you do have a warrant, let them take you in whenever you get bored on the outside.  And, don't sign a f*****g thing until you read it.

The easiest and probably safest way would be to contact an attorney and have them find out for you.  Calling the police won't help as that info will not be given over the phone.  If you go in and there are charges, you will be arrested on the spot.  So, I suggest you contact an attorney.

You could be charged with obstruction of justice. Hindering a police investigation. Resisting a public officer. Contributing to the deliquency of a minor.  Accessory to assault on a minor.  Accessory to kidnapping. Withholding information.  It all depends on the jurisdiction and if you are found out. Bad business if you ask me. The girl should turn herself in and hope for the best.  Few jurisdictions would excuse the statutory rape charges, so the (boyfriend) is pretty much up the creek without a paddle if charges are pressed.

I like to use..........\n\n" The bad news is your under arrest, the good news is I just saved a lot of money by switching to GIECO!!!"\n\nbut the Answer your looking for is Miranda Rights. Police do not have to read them to you however, they only have to read them if they are going to ask you questions that may incriminate you.

Depending on which state you reside in, and the extent of the injuries incurred on the victim, the punishment has a wide range, including but not limited to, jail time, payment of medical expenses and/or fines. In the State of Florida for example, Battery, ranges from a misdemeanor to a felony. Sentencing for Battery ranges from 1 year to life. Assault is a misdemeanor in the 2nd degree; Aggravated assault is the felony. Sentencing can range from 60 days for the 2nd degree misdemeanor to life for the felony.

I can't tell you for sure, but it's worse than a civilian.  Battery (or assault) of a uniformed officer will net you a few more years, at least.

it depends on the state and the degree of the charges.

The police can detain any person at any time for reasonable cause and you can be held under suspicoun until you have been cleared or charged.  I believe there is a 72 hour limit on how long they may hold you till they must either free or charge you.

You have to tell them that you are performing a citizens arrest citing the reason and which CRIMINAL law has been broken. Then you have to inform them of their rights (same as Police), then hand over to police when they turn up. You can't search them, neither can you touch them (classed as assault).

depends on the state.  in georgia, my state, Georgia, simple battery is when:\n      (a) A person commits the offense of simple battery when he or she either: \n      (1) Intentionally makes physical contact of an insulting or provoking nature with the person of another; or \n      (2) Intentionally causes physical harm to another. \n\nand battery is when:\n      (a) A person commits the offense of battery when he or she intentionally causes substantial physical harm or visible bodily harm to another.\n\nso the main difference is "substantial" and/or "visible" harm.  This can mean bruising, cutting, leaving choke marks and so forth.  in the end, it's up to the judge (with the recommendation of the D.A.) to decide which law the battery falls under. \n\nSomeone above said that battery can be getting yelled at.  That is wrong.  Battery in any form requires physical contact.  Assault is the crime that doesn't require contact.  Assault is when you can be said to have reasonably feared that physical harm MIGHT happen.  That is, when someone fakes you out by acting like they're gonna punch you, and you flinch, they have assaulted you whether or not they actually hit you.  But if they didn't actually hit you, no battery occurred.\n\nboth are misdemeanors in GA, but battery carries more jailtime and fines.  Aggrivated battery is a felony here.
