There was evidence that existed of an audio confession but no other evidence existed to support crime was committed.

answered on Jul 23, 2022
In short, it doesn't. Assuming that the defendant didn't have an attorney, if the defendant failed to raise the objection it has been waived. The judge may have thought that there was sufficient evidence that a crime had been committed.

Please reach out to Florida licensed attorneys who practice criminal appeals for a consultation, many offer them at no cost. There are simply too many variables in your statement, and after a defendant enters a plea, their appeal options are limited. Even more limited after they are sentenced.

answered on Jul 8, 2023
A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. It could depend on the terms of your agreement with the attorney. Without seeing the retainer, it would be difficult for anyone to evaluate. Good luck
I currently have a restraining order placed on me two years ago, but the other party has been contacted me, and even visited my apartment. I feel that the restraining order is unjustified,as the other party can't prove they fear for their life .
