understood. I also understand how DEA will begin a case and hand it off if not serious enough. In my case it seems it was always a state case until they ran into issues.
Hypothetical question,
If the state's request for administrative subpoena has PC problems, could they ask the DEA just for...
My case was tried and convicted as a state case. For cursory research for my appeal, I recently requested copy of administrative subpoena used to attain utility records. To my surprise, it was a DEA DOJ subpoena.
My whole case hinges on the possibility of insufficient probable cause for SW...
likelihood of robbery and the atmosphere the children is raised in would contribute to later problems etc.
This is pretty much the basis cited in the complaint. I have already plead no contest to this charge as part of a plea deal. Attorney suggested he was able to get rid of a felony, but had...
Civil case was mutually agreed upon for stipulation and order.
criminal case has now been sentenced, and is in early appeal phases.
Considering there was a stipulation, how would it work if somehow the criminal appeal was successful?
Am I supposed to appeal civil case in the meantime as well...
Child neglect charge stemming from Marijuana raid in an upscale neighborhood. Garden was separated from main house.
wisconsin statute 948.21(1)(a)
Children are provided for, clean home, healthy food, no signs of abuse. Being told the neglect charge is because odds of the home being robbed are...
Before the plea, was I entitled to a transcript? Or only after trial begins?
We requested transcript before plea. Told there wasn't one.
My lawyer was baffled as there must be some proof of a tip.
Once again, this is just one topic of many that left my trial attorney baffled.
At the time we requested it, reason was to build our defense and try to uncover any needle in haystack. This is just one example of many areas we requested discovery.
Nowadays I wonder if being denied discovery is an issue or not.
I was led to believe I would be getting representation that...
I do not want to waste your time. I especially do not wish to spend $10,000 on an appeals attorney when there has not been one glimmer of hope gleaned from these forums.
Enable and comfort me? Quite the contrary. However grateful for the reality check.
The additional surveillance or further investigation is just a comment in affidavit that "numerous attempts were made to collect garbage and on many occasions the garbage was not out". It is a fair inference to make that there were other pulls with no contraband that was left out if affidavit...
During my consultations with local attorneys, they all remarked that the plea deal was surprisingly heavy in my favor, and that there must be a problem with the state's case. We were digging to try to find out what the problem was.
We have discovered since then, the tipster is a former friend...
Yes "thing" means transcript. When crimestoppers hands over a tip to the authorities, it is not just a friendly phone call. They generate a tip sheet. Considering withdrawing my plea comes with tremendous risk, and we fear the perceived delay tactic as a aggravating factor for Judge, I come here...
plea was after. Sentencing has been delayed. I have the option to withdraw my plea and relitigate, or accept fair plea deal and appeal later. Considering what at first blush seems to be a favorable plea bargain, I have decided to fight another day. I have interviewed a few appeals attrorneys and...
