Legal Answers
9 Questions Answered
- Q. i was arrested and my phone was confiscated for evidence and got a warrant to search phone what can be used against me
- A: If they obtained a warrant, they can use whatever they find. There are other evidentiary issues, but in general whatever they find can be used. Your attorney can, however, still look at whether or not the warrant should have been issued.
- Q. See below
- A: Yes, grand theft. Burglary may be over reaching as it was in the yard. Once you get to grand theft, the trespassing is a bit irrelevant. Grand theft can be a felony or a misdemeanor. Bottom line: what is charged and how it ends up are two different things.
