45 Questions Answered
Q. If I confess to a crime I did can I choose my jail time if it's reasonable?
A: If you're convicted of a crime, it is up to the Judge to determine the sentence. You can ask for a certain sentence and give the Judge the reasons why it should be imposed, but ultimately it is up to the Judge to decide the sentence.
Q. If sentence was 9 months one day, how much time would one do with good time?
A: A person can earn up to 7 days of good time per month if the charge; however, certain charges, such as domestic charges, are only eligible for 5 days per month of good time.
Q. Can a no contact order be lifted by DA before arraignment court date?
A: If you're referring to a no contact order in the bail bond, it is possible to have it removed by the Court before arraignment. The defendant will need to file a motion to have the condition removed and the court will schedule a hearing on it for the court to decide whether to remove it or not. I hope this helps answer the question.
