It sounds like "she" is charged with possessing a forged instrument, which is a crime. Speak to an experienced defense attorney.

Seems odd, but that's not selective prosecution. Police aren't prosecutors but they do make arrests.

If you are charged with a crime in New York, the court will be located in the county where the alleged acts took place. Just because you are charged with a crime does not mean a jail sentence will result.

The person who is in the best position to answer any question about your son's case is his current attorney.

You do have a right to an attorney at trial. But it seems like you've had many attorneys. At some point a judge may believe that a person is changing attorneys to delay a case. But ordering a person to trial without an attorney seems extreme.

Possibly. The person to ask is her attorney. It would depend on her release status and/or conditions.

Unless law enforcement has a warrant or there is some exception to the warrant requirement, the search is probably barred. If the search was unconstitutional, then it is possible that evidence that was recovered as a result may be supressed as the fruit of the poisonous tree.

Because arrestees and defendants have protections under the federal and state constitutions. Violating those rights can lead to the suppression of evidence.

Unless blood was taken, the prosecution should know your BAC by now. If you submitted to a breathalyzer it would have known immediately.

What you described is speeding and possibly reckless endangerment if the speed limit was already high. You didn't describe any loss of life.

The answer to your question is: possibly. It depends on what the accusation was. But decisions by government employees may be subject to review.

There is no set time limit. Every case is different. It takes about three months for a case to reach a trial posture. Once a case is on for hearing and/or trial, it could take a year or longer for a trial to commence.

If you refused a breathalyzer then your license is suspended/revoked. If you submitted to a breathalyzer then it is possible that you may be able to drive to work through a conditional license or by hardship. The best person to ask is your current criminal defense attorney.

Yes, past criminal history is one of many of the factors that are considered in the guidelines.

Go to the clerk of the court and ask for a certificate of disposition. It costs $10.

A person has 30 days from sentencing to file a notice of direct appeal. A CPL 440 motion can be brought any time, unless it is barred for some other reason, for Brady violations, ineffective assistance of counsel, newly discovered evidence, among others.

If the report alleges criminal charges then he would likely be arrested on the new charges. It's also possible that his parole could be revoked.
