Asked about 1 year ago - Newport Beach, CA
Flagi feel the prosecuter is doing this to put me behind bars to prevent me from fighting a case and covering up the arresting officers mistakes during the arrest.. i also feel the D.A. has prejudice upon my criminal past yet i have successfully completed probation, have a certificate of rehabilitation, and the charges arent related to any past charges. how to i dismiss the case from here or change or remove this prosecuter.
Sometimes prosecutors can be irritating. Make sure you have an attorney to help you through this. Many prosecutor's bark is louder than the bite. An attorney familiar with the jurisdiction and DA will know how to deal with this type of prosecutor.
Don't let this battle become personal. Focus on the defense of the case because you cannot remove the prosecutor.
I can only assume (and hope) you have an attorney representing you. There can be a motion to recuse the prosecutor's office, but there must be substantial grounds. This is not something that can be answered in a simple post and answer online.
If there are not grounds to try an recuse the entire DA's office, then motions before the trial judge to exclude and/or limit the use of any priors you may have sound appropriate.
You're just asking a very broad question on an issue that is very fact specific.
