The reason the judge probably told you to get a lawyer is so that the lawyer can negotiate a plea bargain deal or better, pre-trial intervention so that the charge will not stay on your record once the probationary period is finished. You may be able to either get a public defender to handle...
Because people very seldom, if ever, file a complaint against a police officer although you have every right to. Don't forget the police work for the citizens, not the other way around. If you feel that you were stopped and the police was not acting in a professional manner with you, you should...
Trust me, if your brother and his friends come forward and lay all of the blame of that evening on themselves and say that she had no idea what was going on, the judge would have to rule in a dismissal of all of her charges.
A plea bargain is very likely. If she/you hires and attorney, he...
You are obviously ignorant as to many facts of the law and that is not an insult. it's just something I see that needs addressing. Okay, firstly, I would very much like to know more about the details of the crime that happened. If the boyfriend just went into a bar and stole a table, then ran...

If it's any help, the judge you will be seeing has seen and heard it all. Don't give him excuses unless you really believe them because he will see through them.
Yeah dude, here's a reply: You need to relax. Just call the D.A.'s office and ask tell the secretary about your situation and tell them you need to request being placed on PTI so that you can have it ready when you get to court. First ask to speak to the D.A. or Asst. D.A.. They may too busy to...
It's true that you probably won't be given any jail time if this is your first offense. But contempt of court is no cake walk.. You basically said, "Screw You" to the judge and his court by not appearing. For 1 count of contempt you are usually looking at $600 cash fine. If you can explain a...
Yeah they will give you a list of where you can do community service and you can go there when you have free time if they allow and if not you'll have to go on weekends. The courts usually give you 1 year to complete and in your case, you'll probably be given 64 hours.
Just call the D.A.'s...
Okay, well they don't have the police do have the right to search this guy's brother's house if is know that your husband still resides there. But they must have a search warrant to do so, nonetheless with a judge's signature on it. If fact, this is the first thing they should tell you upon...
Ask her the entire phrase. Don't ask her like you know all of tlhe ins and outs about law. Ask about pre-trial intervention.
Community Service means either you are picking up trash on the side of the road or you are pulling weeds at a church or fire department, etc... If you want to do...
Ask them about pre-trial intervention. If need be, set up an appointment to speak with the D.A. It's no big deal. This is a normal occurrence for their office.
Being that it is a misdemeanor, just ask the judge if you can be put on a reasonable payment plan.
After put on PTI, you just ride out the details of the PTI contract.
As for community service, most cities have a list of places you can do your community service or you can get on the...
1. They usually allow this for first time offenders, especially misdemeanors so I see no problem there.
2. Well, if you request PTI and they give it to you, you won't have to make a plea. However if you are not able to get on PTI then you will have to plead. Always plead not guilty at your...
Either hire a lawyer to take care of it, which will cost you about $1000-$1200 or you may get lucky and call your local D.A. and request an expungement form to fill out. However, if you don't know how to revise a legal form such as this and you don't know what avenues to send them (about 7...
