theft and gave me a court date. i got arrested last year and was a D.A reject. regarding this matter since it wasnt my things that i was arrested for what should i do?
A: What should you do? First step would be to consult with a local criminal criminal lawyer to review the details and your legal options. Don't make any statements to law enforcement. Remain silent.
A: You need to consult a local criminal defense attorney ASAP. Your letter from the DA is a very serious charge and it's time-sensitive. I am available for a free consult.
A:
more info needed
however, jeopardy does not attach until jury sworn in.
you should contact the same lawyer you had last year.
i assume they filed as a felony which means you have to appear each time.
if u do not have a lawyer call me for a referral or free consultation......dale gribow 760 837 7500
