Legal Answers
724 Questions Answered
Q. Should i plead not guilty to a possession paraphernalia from two years ago didnt even no I was charged with it
A: From a strategic standpoint, it always makes more sense to plead not guilty to any charge, at least until you and your lawyer have had a chance to review everything, see if there is not enough evidence against you, or see if there is a way in which the case could end up being dismissed or the evidence thrown out. I would highly recommend that you reach out to an experienced criminal defense lawyer to see how he or she can help you out.
Q. Yes if I take my accessory to burglary case to trial being I didn't know what was going on doi serve full ten yrs?
A: It really depends on the circumstances, especially since your teenager is still considered a youth. I would be curious as to whether this is in circuit court or youth court. Regardless, your best bet is going to always be to reach out to an experienced criminal defense lawyer to review the facts of the case and discuss the best course of action.
Q. My son was arrested and charged with dui and reckless driving. He refused the breathalyzer therefore no evidence. Cont.
A: Whether he was read his Miranda rights depends on whether he was subjected to an interrogation, where he incriminated himself. As to the public defender, it really boils down to whether you satisfied with the public defender or not. There are good public defenders, just as there are good private lawyers, and vice versa.
