Legal Answers
19 Questions Answered
Q. Can a victim of felony crimes demand a speedy trial?
A: The right to a speedy trial is a right afforded to the Defendant in a criminal trial. This right comes from bot the United States Constitution and the Pennsylvania Constitution. The victim is not a party to a criminal case, he or she is a witness. It is up to the Commonwealth - through the prosecutor - to agree or object to any continuance requests and the ultimate decision rests with the Court/Judge as to werher or not a continuance will be granted. The prosecutor may also request continuances during the course of a criminal proceeding. The victim in a criminal case does have some rights, granted by statute. A summary of PA Victim's Rights can be found on this official government website: https://prdpcv.pwpca.pa.gov/available-services/Pages/Your-Detailed-Rights-As-A-Crime-Victim.aspx

Unfortunately, the criminal court system can be slow at times and patience is required of all persons involved.

Q. How do you get an attorney removed from your case in Pennsylvania?
A: You can hire a new attorney at any time. Once you've hired the new attorney, he or she will file an Entry of Appearance with the Court, oftentimes the new attorney will coordinate with the old attorney to file this concurrently with the old attorney's Withdrawal. Alternatively, the new attorney can file their Entry of Appearance then the old attorney can file his/her Withdrawal separately, thereafter.
Q. Rovoked probation for new arrest can my new sentence term be dismissed if new arrest charges got dismissed?
A: You can still be violated for "police contact" even if the new charges result in an acquittal or get dismissed. The severity of the violation for police contact is much less than for a new conviction. You should immediately consult with an experienced criminal defense attorney in your jurisdiction to prepare a plan to handle the new charges and the violation hearing.
