Ticket in Gainesville, FL.

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - over 3 years ago.

There are other factors that an attorney can use to have your ticket dismissed. You should consult an experienced traffic attorney. The retainer you pay would likely be offset by the money you save in the long run from fines, court costs, and insurance hikes.

How many points do felony possession of cannibis carry

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - almost 3 years ago.

If you're being charged with simple possession and you have a good record, your attorney may be successful in having the charges reduced to a misdemeanor (also depending on the quantity- ie, if the amount of evidence is close to 20 grams). Also, don't forget that a good attorney will examine the legal foundation to determine whether the arrest and search was a legal one. It's always better to go into every case looking for the way to beat it, rather than mitigate it.

19, arrested for giving drinks to a minor, however they wrote the written arest to the person on my fake id, thinking it was me.

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - over 2 years ago.

Your attorney may be able to have the charges dismissed. You should retain one before going to court, if you haven't done so already. Chances are that your attorney will be able to appear on your behalf without you ever having to go yourself.

How do they decide which charge will be your primary charge if you have more than one charge?

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - over 2 years ago.

Depending on the socio-political climate of your local jurisdiction in relation to one of those charges, it may make a difference as to how strongly the State Attorney prosecutes your case. For example, if there have been a high number of meth-related crimes around town and a person is arrested for trafficking in meth in addition to other charges, the state may refuse to come off that one charge no matter what your plea negotiations entail. Generally though, the primary/secondary dichotomy...

Dui.

Asked by a user in Tampa, FL - almost 3 years ago.

They may also have to prove that the vehicle was actually operable. If no one saw the car moving or even on, the law in Illinois may be favorable to a motion to dismiss because the car would maybe not fall under the definition of a moving vehicle (because no one knew if it worked or not). Just a stretch, but worth looking into.

Is there a Florida Law prohibiting a person with a DUI conviction from working as a bartender?

Asked by a user in Tampa, FL - almost 3 years ago.

The attorney above is absolutely correct. And absolutely under no circumstances should you drive after leaving the bar late at night even if you were NOT drinking that last shift drink. If you're pulled over, the officer may or may not believe that you smell like alcohol because of your job. If you're driving on a hardship permit, the officer may not believe you're coming home from work and you'll probably be charged with DUI, a hardship violation (also a misdemeanor), and then you'll be...

Is it double jeopardy when you have been arrested once for DV & then a order is issued for your arrest again for the same case?

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - almost 3 years ago.

Because the first arrest was not actually dismissed. He (or she) likely missed their court date and the judge ordered the capias.

As the victim how can i get the no contact order lifted on the defendant

Asked by a user in Gainesville, FL - almost 3 years ago.

You have to schedule a motion with the judge who ordered it - or with the criminal court division that your case is now set in. You or your attorney should draft a motion outlining the facts, reasoning, and law in support of your motion to the court asking them to remove the No Contact Order. Once the clerk, the judicial assistant, and state attorney have received a copy of your motion and notice of hearing, you can argue the motion and present evidence in support of your case. It's very...
