Q: How can I see discovery in a plea case?
I was charged in a drug conspiracy to distribute oxycodone where I subsequently agreed to a plea bargain of 20 years with 15 suspended and 18 months probation. Parole and probation have since expired and I'd like to know if it is possible for me to see the discovery that was part of the case?
A: If you had an attorney, you could ask the see the file. You could file an Maryland Public Information Act request, and see what the government says in response.
