Q. I was in a fight and the other person involved fled.I did not start the fight. Im being charged with assault.

July 26, 2022

A: Assault causing bodily injury is a class A Misdemeanor. If convicted, its up to 1yr in county jail, and up to a $4k fine. However, you are permitted to use physical force to defend yourself - to the extent and degree of the violence used against you. If someone assaults you, you can physically fight back to defend yourself. So, you may have a valid self defense argument. Find a lawyer you trust to review the facts and evidence and advise you of your options. Good luck.

Q. If I'm on probation for my ex's negligence and don't report, can I get it dismissed

July 25, 2022

A: Once you have pled guilty and been placed on probation, the case is over. It will not be re-opened and dismissed. You have to abide by the terms and conditions, or the probation could be revoked. Then you’d have to go to prison instead.

Q. Can i buy a firearm if im being charged with a felony?

July 20, 2022

A: No, you probably would get flagged in a firearm purchase due to the pending felony case. Also, a typical bond condition is no firearms or ammunition. So if that is a bond condition, you would not want to purchase or possess firearms while the case is pending. Often, even if you take probation, it is a condition of probation not to own firearms or ammunition. Once you FINISH a probation, the case is dismissed, or you are found not guilty, then you can purchase or possess a firearm, so long as you don't have other disqualifying history. More importantly...you don't trust your lawyer to provide you legal advice? Bummer! If you are convicted of the felony, you can never legally purchase a firearm again. Make sure you hire someone you trust before you decide what to do on your felony case. Whatever choice you make will have lifelong consequences.
