How long is Los Angeles County Jail allowed to hold you in jail if you have an Orange County warrant?
Q. Is there a time limit for Los Angeles County Jail to transfer you to the county you have a warrant? Aren't they suppose to release you after 72 hours if they dont do the transfer?

A. The 72 hours is the amount of time you can be held until you are formally charged. When a warrant is issued, you have already been charged, so the 72 hour rule does not apply. They will hold you for whatever time it takes Orange County comes to get you.

Are county health and human social services primarily only for women, children and the elderly?
Q. I am working class and couldn t afford mental health services for counseling on my own. I called county social services but unless I was a police code 5150, there didn t seem to be any social services counseling. Instead the primary chunk of social services seemed geared only towards mothers with children, children themselves, the chronically homeless, addicts, or the elderly. Is it a mistake for childless adult males, who aren t suicidal but need mental health counseling, to seek county services?

A. It's never a mistake to try. Whether you qualify depends on your county. Usually there are some public mental health programs. For some, you have to be on public assistance. It depends a lot on where you are. I think you are in CA because you reference a CA police code. Look for the number for mental health services in your county. If they say you don't qualify, ask for referrals to other low cost providers- they should have phone numbers. Consider looking outside of public services, too. Often, clinics associated with universities will offer discounted/sliding scale services. Some non-profits also offer sliding scale fees.

What route is faster to big bear from orange county this weekend?
Q. Taking into consideration that we had a lot of snow this past week and that it is a weekend and many people are going to hit the slopes, what route is faster... Orange county to big bear via the 330 - chains required, more traffic, shorter distance or Orange county to big bear via the 18 - chains optional, less traffic, longer distance. Does anyone have any experience driving this under these conditions?

A. The front way is 330 to 18 through Running Springs. The back way is 38 to 18 through Forest Falls. Just so you know, chains are required on the 38 as well. If you get an early start, the most direct way is the fastest. Otherwise, you might want to go via 38. However, there is one route you didn't mention. If you take 15 north and take the Bear Valley cutoff to Lucerne Valley, you can avoid a lot of the mountain driving. It's definitely longer, but a good alternate on crazy weekends like this one. everyone wants to get on the mountain this weekend. I would wait a week.
