I was Caught Using my Cell Phone While Driving. Now What?

I was Caught Using my Cell Phone While Driving. Now What?

What we do know is that in California, drivers are prohibited from using their cell phone while they are behind the wheel, with a few exceptions. What we do not know, is what the consequences are if we are caught doing so.

Exceptions
A driver may use their cell phone if they are making an emergency call to an emergency service like the police, the fire department, or their medical soma online provider. A driver may also quickly tap or swipe on their mounted phone if, and only if, it is being used as a GPS. Note that the phone must be mounted to the car where it does not interfere with clear visibility.

Consequences
A first offense for a driver caught using their phone illegally while driving is $20. Additional offenses will be $50. These are baseline figures though. The actual figure will be a few hundred dollars, after assessments are added. Fortunately for the driver, these offenses are infractions only and will not appear on their driving record.

A driver should not be arrested after being pulled over for using their phone while driving. If the situation gets out of hand, the officer may have reason to make an arrest, like for disorderly conduct. In this case, the defendant will have bigger consequences to worry about, such as paying for bail and appearing in court. As far as bail goes, this can be paid with a bail bond from Apple Valley Bail Bonds.

About Copyright Infringement

About Copyright Infringement

These days, what can’t you find on the Internet? More people are bidding farewell to cable TV, movie theaters, music stores, bookstores, and video game stores. They are, instead, opting to find this content on the Internet for free. Even though nearly everyone you know does this, and as easy as it is to access this information, it does not negate the fact that it is illegal since it is copyright infringement. You may not have gotten in trouble legally for this yet and you have been doing it for years, but it is still copyright infringement.

Anytime you copy, display, distribute, or sell a creative work, songs, movies, books, etc., that you did not create yourself, it is copyright infringement. The copyright belongs to the original creator or owner of the content, like the author of a book or the singer of the song; they own the rights. Songs, for example, are to be purchased on a CD or a music-streaming service. If you find one to download for free from an illegitimate source, it is copyright infringement because you do not have an official right to access it.

Offenses for copyright infringement can vary, and it generally is based on the value of what was infringed upon. For example, if a person displayed 15 copies of a movie online, the total retail value could be a few thousand dollars. This would give them a few years in prison. If the person displayed 100 movies online, the retail value of that increases, and so does their prison sentence.

People tend to think they are invincible in these situations and will not get caught, but the truth is, the police do arrest individuals for copyright infringement, and the defendant never suspected it.

Bail bonds are available to those who are granted bail, and we at Apple Valley Bail Bonds can assist with this.

If you ever need us, we can be reached online or at 760-247-4444.

Think Before You Post on Social Media

Think Before You Post on Social Media

Social media has aided the police in making arrests. Do not put yourself in a position to be one of these people. You could post something where you think, “I can’t get in trouble for posting this.” You could have posted a photo of you staring at a breathtaking view, but to get to that view, you had to trespass onto private property. Posting this photo may not resonate as a risk to you because so many people before you have done it. Plus, the police have more pressing matters to attend to, right?

Believe it or not, the police are growing departments that are dedicated to filtering through social media. Yes, they are looking for content like threats or evidence for an existing case, but they may happen upon an otherwise harmless post, like your beautiful Instagram photo, and they can take this up with you.

Additionally, you may never know what the public will say. Your content can go viral enough where the police feel the need to intervene and address the matter.

You may not have done any harm and you may not be a threat to other people, but trespassing is illegal and it most definitely can get you into some form of legal trouble. That is why we are telling you to always be mindful about what you post on social media.

If you, or a loved one, ever need to be bailed out of jail for any reason, Apple Valley Bail Bonds can get the job done fast and affordably.

What Happens if You Fail to Pay Your Child Support
Published March 13, 2017

What Happens if You Fail to Pay Your Child Support

The consequences of failing to make your court-mandated child support payments run deep. The matter is taken very seriously. Consequences include:

• Arrest
• Fines
• Being in contempt of court
• Denial of tax refunds
• Wage garnishment – When the court orders your employer to withhold a certain amount of your paycheck and send it directly to the court or the partner instead
• Exclusion from receiving government benefits
• Confiscated passport
• Confiscation or suspension of licenses
• Placing a lien on property – The court possesses the person’s property until debt is paid

A person can face one, many, or all of the above consequences for failing to make their child support payments. One alone is harmful enough, but dealing with multiple can be incredibly detrimental to a person’s quality of life.

When someone has failed to make their child support payments, they can lose the ability to get any sort of license or other form of paperwork from the government. This person has essentially been blacklisted from receiving any form of help from the government until he or she begins making child support payments again.

It is one thing to purposely not make a payment; it is another thing to run into financial difficulty to make payments on time. It is urged that if a person finds themselves experiencing the latter, that they bring this to the attention of the court, their lawyer, and local authorities. They can assist the individual and alleviate the stress like revising payment plans.

A person is not on his or her own when it comes to dealing with a situation like this. The court wants to see both sides of the family succeed and they will do what they can to make it work.
