answered on Mar 19, 2023
It is possible for an inmate to be released on parole earlier than their scheduled release date, but this decision is typically made by the Mississippi Department of Corrections Parole Board based on a variety of factors, including the inmate's behavior while incarcerated, the nature of the...

It really depends on the circumstances, especially since your teenager is still considered a youth. I would be curious as to whether this is in circuit court or youth court. Regardless, your best bet is going to always be to reach out to an experienced criminal defense lawyer to review the facts of... Read more »
He was convicted over this in 2007 and is currently doing the remaining 14 yrs now. I'm trying to find a loop hole or just how to get him a reduction in his sentence. Who has the authority to modify his sentence. He's bee. Locked up since 8/2/22
I am a non resident and do not have to register in the state I got convicted in nor do I need to register in the state I live now. I completed both.

Yes. Generally, you would need to file a petition in the relevant circuit court to have the requirement lifted, assuming that Mississippi recognizes the offense as one that is eligible.

It was clarified a little bit after 2014, but yes, generally, a person would be eligible for release after serving approximately 50% of their sentence. That being said, it still would depend on MDOC, and a person is not necessarily entitled to early release.

Assuming that all terms and conditions of the conviction have been satisfied, then yes, such a charge should be able to be expunged.
Also, there was nothing in Plain view, and there were no exigent circumstances.

It really depends on the circumstances. Typically, law enforcement can enter one's property without a warrant if, like you said, there were exigent circumstances or in pursuit of someone who the officer was notified was engaged in wrongdoing.

It really depends on the situation. The failure to tell a person their Miranda rights does not necessarily mean that the case will be dismissed; however, it could mean that any confession or statements made by the person may not be able to come in. Once again, though, it depends on the situation.

It really depends on whether you think that you can adequately defend yourself against the charges that the other person put on you. Your best bet will likely be to have representation, since a lawyer can 1) defend you, and 2) be in a better position to question the other side.
