I agree with the answer below but straight to the point is that nothing on the internet has to be perfect. Often times the information a court or database, such as public access, does not public accurate information. The most accurate information for you to refer to is your indictment.

Wasn't drunk passed all test no breathalyzer given. Just plead guilty and pay the fines? What could it be pleaded down to?

I agree with Stewart's answer.
To add some more information. There is typically a benefit of hiring a lawyer to seeking a plea deal that allows you to take an alcohol course in exchange for getting the case dismissed. This will save you some money and protect your criminal record. If... View More

As a criminal defense lawyer, I don't have the best answer for you. I recommend that you contact a lawyer who specifically deals with constitutional law as this is going to be up the alley of constitutional freedoms such as speech, assembly, etc.
On the criminal defense side of... View More

No! You still have constitutional rights that protect you and your families. When it comes to being pulled over, the police must have a valid reason to pull you over. They cannot use the stay at home order as justification to pull anyone over and question them.

Over 15 years I received them mostly all in one day from each jurisdiction, Peoria, Glendale, Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa. I even served time in jail for about a week. How can I get them reduced or dismiss

answered on Apr 1, 2020
In Arizona, we do not have a law that allows for expungements. However, we do have a law that allows for "Set Asides". This essentially is the AZ equivalent of an expungement or sealing records.
In your situation, it seems as if these offenses occurred 15 years ago and you were... View More

The response by Adan is correct as for the process.
If I am reading between the lines, you do not need to worry about security arresting you simply because of your undocumented status. However, if your plea agreement calls for jail time then you should absolutely be worried about your case... View More
Worried about him and his thinking right now he believes if he waits until a month before his birthday to turn himself in he will have a clean slate and only serve a month

I believe the answer below is correct for the most part but would clarify that the individual will be charged as an adult the moment he turns 18. In fact, depending on the crime, he can be charged as an adult without him being 18. The smart thing to do would be to try and resolve the case before he... View More
For the purposes of a DMV hearing to determine if my BAC was 0.080 or greater, my two readings (Intoxilyzer 8000) were 0.080 (equal to) and 0.077 (less than). Is the administrative judge required to use the lower, average or higher value in that determination?

answered on Feb 10, 2020
The Administrative Law Judge is not required to go with the lower or higher BAC only, as they will take both into consideration. I do not know the specifics of your case and recommend you contact me directly if you want more help at 602-900-6642.
In most MVD hearings the judge is looking... View More

Allegedly, an undercover officer pulled me over after running my info and seeing that I supposedly had a suspended license. So, he told me that the car would have to be towed and asked if there was anything in the car. Allegedly, I admitted to drug paraphernalia being in there. As they searched,... View More

This is a situation where you will definitely want to talk to me about the specifics of your case, or your friend’s case. Usually there is enough reason to search the case based on you admitting to there being drugs/paraphernalia in the car but this can get much more complex than a simple yes or... View More

If it’s a misdemeanor then there’s going to be less of a punishment than a felony. However, everyone’s case is a little different... View More
is trespassing a moving violation? it seemed like if they were watching me or the area, cause there were 3 sheriffs involved in the stop.

answered on Jan 23, 2020
I agree that this is a very weak reason to be pulled over and isn’t the typically traffic violation that allows a the police to conduct a traffic stop. However, someone can still tresspass while in a vehicle so I would need to know more about what actually happened. Feel free to reach out for a... View More

Good questions. Legally the answer is pretty vague as the extradition allows the removal to another state. Typically, if someone is already in custody they will finish their sentence and then be extradited to the new state to face the other charges. If you have more questions or are worried about...
