Police Force Use Guidelines
Summary
The use of force by police must be reasonable and necessary. Excessive force, especially when a person is restrained, may be unlawful. If police seize property, you can request its return or file a motion if its no longer needed as evidence. If lost, you may claim compensation. Police can arrest if a crime is suspected, but minor offenses might need further investigation. Asking if someone has a problem isnt necessarily a crime unless threatening. Charges like assault involve applying force or threats, while mischief involves property damage or interference. Understanding these legal aspects can help in navigating potential legal issues.Full Conversation

If someone calls the police and says "someone was in my drive way and squared off with me then left " .. is that something the police can arrest for right away .. or something they have to get approved by the crown
Case Rating: *
The police can take immediate action if they believe a crime has been committed or if there is a threat to public safety. However, whether or not they can arrest someone right away depends on the specific circumstances and evidence. Arrests for minor offenses might require further investigation or approval from the Crown.

What crime would it be if someone asked another if they had a problem
Case Rating: *
It may not necessarily be a crime for someone to ask another person if they have a problem, as it depends on the context and the manner in which it was asked. If the question is asked in a threatening or intimidating way, it could potentially be considered harassment or intimidation.
