Q: I have been to court 6 times in a approximately 18 months I have been offered plea bargains
Each time there is some kind of excuse to put it off it's a no consent search issue no motions to suppress have been filed by my lawyer I'm guilty of having a joint but it was a illegal search each time nothing changes I just get a different date to come back shouldn't it either be dismissed or at least proceed with motions
A: Seems like you have not found a plea offer that you agree with. Talk to your attorney and see if he can find some leverage to work with the district attorneys to get it down to where you want it. If not, do a scheduling order and set it for trial.
