In reality if you’re in a corrupt county and don’t have the money take the misdemeanor and add in a no contest plea and expungement guarantee in writing
When you agree to a plea deal, can you apply for probation? Is that even a thing? Applying for probation to see if you get that instead of prison time?
This comment got buried. Don't put in a plea. Say that you are making a special appearance and you are challenging jurisdiction. You can not put in a plea at this time because you haven't been informed of the nature and cause of the action. Do not take their attorney! ...Firearm is a commercial term. You have the right to bear ARMS. Good luck! A couple more things to remember....Do not allow them to fingerprint you and demand for them to identify themselves and show you a valid state issue driver license. I know the shit sounds crazy but I have gotten results with these methods.
Sean, I noyiced in the charging document that there are several items in it that are wrong. For instance, my description is wrong. My my sir name is spelled wrong, instances are not true. what can I do about these?
LoL you have no rights if government has a way around every single one and qualified immunity if they do violate your rights and a attorneys first duty is to the court not their client.
Thats all fine and good but there are states like my home state of TN, if you refuse any test, yr AT LEAST gonna lose yr licence for a year. I find that to be some kind of coercion. Totally messed up.b
@@SeanHenricksenLawFirm While I appreciate your taking the time to respond - it should be pointed out there is another equally valid point of view here. It's about credibility. I'm sure almost everyone I ever arrested for drunk driving told all his (or her) friends they were innocent - but they knew they were guilty and so did I. (Maybe some of their friends knew, too.) It was important to me to do the right thing - that was (1) get drunks off the road, and (2) preserve my credibility by NOT arresting someone who wasn't guilty. By "tricking" people into cooperating, there were times when I had all the probable cause in the world to make the arrest, but determined they were borderline and it might serve the community to give them a good scare and have them undergo the inconvenience of having to call a friend for a ride, while not screwing up their lives with a suspended license and a drunk driving conviction. At this point you're thinking I'm being an ass and overstepping my authority by detaining them longer than necessary, right? Another consideration is that any amount of alcohol (or certain other drugs) in the system can cause impairment, even if it doesn't "rise to the level" established by the court system and other crooked politicians. Consider YOUR CLIENT being the victim of an impaired driver who had just had an encounter with the police, but who was let go because it couldn't be proved the impaired driver was impaired. $$$$$ - am i right??? But it wasn't the potential financial liability that made me an "asshat" - it was not wanting to see your client get hurt in the first place. Now with the advent of RU-vid providing a platform for lawyers to perpetuate the myth that the cops are the bad guys, that people should never talk to them or cooperate in any way, to do everything legally possible (and sometimes illegally) to impede the ability to determine the facts of the case and make an informed decision, and last but not least make it even easier for you when you go to court to impeach the credibility of the police. (And going to court is something you will invariably do as you preach non-cooperation with some guy or gal trying to protect the community, hence, the car payment comment.) I can think of a few people who are (or should be) glad they didn't follow your advice to disrespect the police and their efforts to prevent your client getting killed or killing someone else. And by "few" I mean a lot. Then again, I don't expect you to change just because I believe people should be able to live their lives free from the consequences of criminality. You're a product of a law school education. I've helped removed the bodies of children from a minivan hit by a drunk guy who was in the country illegally. I just like to think if the situation was reversed, I would still want to be the good guy.
@@dougearnest7590 There’s a lot here and I don’t disagree with everything you’ve said. Ultimately, the point is that when an officer is investigating someone for anything, they are not on the same side. Those people being investigated have Constitutional rights, and they should exercise those rights more often than people generally do.
@@SeanHenricksenLawFirm - Again, I appreciate your taking time to read and respond. I understand the law - Constitutional rights and the burden being on the government to prove its case. I'm just saying that cooperating with the police is more likely to prevent an innocent person from being arrested than not cooperating. Case in point, if my ex wife died under mysterious circumstances I wouldn't even wait to be contacted. I'd go to the police and say "I presume you want to ask me some questions - fire away." The sooner that was done, the more time they would have to find the killer. And if I was asked to do a field sobriety test, I'd make sure the camera was running. The impression most RU-vid lawyers give is "go ahead and get arrested, then call me and I'll get you off". It might be easier since the defendant didn't give them much to go on - and even easier once everyone is conditioned to see the police as the bad guys. The real irony is they could have avoided getting arrested in the first place. Let me edit this to add something. You say when a cop is investigating someone, they are not on the same side. That isn't necessarily true. If the person being investigated isn't guilty, then they ARE on the same side, exchanging information that determines the facts of the case in order to determine what happened, who is guilty, who isn't guilty, etc. Furthermore, if a person willingly, knowingly, etc, commits an offense, he is willingly, knowingly, etc, demonstrating his willingness to lose his freedom from being incarcerated. (Maybe no point to make there, just sayin' - another perspective to consider) 🤠 So, enough time playing on the computer - I should go do something constructive before I start getting billed by the hour.
@@dougearnest7590 You should read Getting LIfe. It's about a man in Texas whose wife was murdered. He did exactly what you said you would do and was sentenced to life. He spent nearly 25 years in prison, before he was able to prove he was innocent. a.co/d/cpFqkC5
So if you are drunk and they pull you randomly you are not in the wrong? In Poland people go straight to jail for that, and im ok with it. Also if they tell you to breathe in the tester you have to do it. They dont need any reason.
Lawyers like you give advice and when people follow it the die or get prison time from the police state. Help us to change the laws instead of helping the government suppress us!
If the officer doesn’t have probable cause and still arrests yo, the cop is violating your Constitutional rights. Everything that comes after the arrest stays out of court.
Yeah if u refuse then they take u straight to jail. And they will say any reason to have probable cause. I seen u swerve or u were going to slow. And alot of cops in my area will say I don't need a reason. And if your not rich and can't afford a good lawyer then what r u supposed to do? Not everyone can afford one of those.
I haven't. Haven't even been apprised regarding the case. Surely that's improper service/grounds for dismissal. Besides asking the judge to recuse themselves if that hasn't occurred already. Couldn't say because again, I haven't been apprised. I don't accept a plea deal nor should anyone be entering pleas on my behalf without my express informed consent. Much less when I don't even know what it's regarding. Plus Brady violations. I'm innocent.
So I have a question, what if they never notified that you are abke to get your gun back, and also what if your public defender never out the motion on to get yur gun back?
Im under fedral i vestigation california i need help a.s.a.p.pl3ase.had incide t watr i was threten provoked i acted in self defence but wat i beileive agents instigayed amd xhale ge mw i belive they yry to kil me
If you are arrested while on foot and you are questioned based on a false report and you have a warrant you are unaware of what to do in Texas - Brown County?
If your inocent you dont need a lawyer, most of the comments here are guilty crying inocent, Im an x con 99% of these comments are guilty, i can tell Im a con and know a con.
Every case is different. Sometimes not taking a plea is a terrible decision. For instance, in Texas if someone is an habitual offender and is facing a 25 year minimum sentence if convicted and the offer is two years when you have 18 months backtime, it is not a good decision to refuse the plea bargain.
I had a good job for forty years but i was sacked because the police informed my employer that i had just been arrested the employer dug out my contract and showed me tha reason i was sacked was i did not tell them i eas arrested untill after the christmas break i also lost my home because i had a service tenancy
On July 22 I was pulled over by lake county police Department told me to take A DUI AND I PASSED WITH 3 zeros. HAD TO TAKE MY BLOOD DRAWN. To the Hospital THEN the POLICE TOOK ME TO JAIL. I was THERE FOR 72 HOURS. THE ONLY TIME I WAS ABLE TO MAKE A PHONE CALL WAS WHEN I WAS IN THE POLICE CAR. I HAD TO BEG. I ALSO TOLD THE POLICE THAT I HAD A disability AND THEY MADE FUN OF ME. I speak with a slur and have a cognitive delay. My blood was negative. I spent 3 days in jail and had to pay fines and to get my truck out of impound. They threw my case out of court but my rights have been violated and they did not take me serious. I have been financially and emotionally strained because of all this and they do not believe me.
I'm 17 and am in drug court for weed, I got put there cuz I was in a school bathroom holding a THC vape that wasn't mine and never hit, but I did smoke weed then I got color code, and drug therapy class for over a year for it, I was failing for months for weed when I wasn't smoking then I got sent to rehab, the rehab was called the bridge, it was beyond crappy, I've been to a psych ward and that was more effective, I failed the day before I got out on a drug test, then a few days later I passed and I have been passing for a long time now and fallowing my probation correctly but I had pent up frustration about my situation so I sent a email to what I thought was the bridge but it was my drug class trying to let go of some steam and pent up frustration and finally try to have someone listen to me cuz no one believed I wasn't smoking except for the people I was constantly around, now my judge want to kick me off cuz I don't recognize myself as a addict which I'm not, I'm forced to be around people that smoke all the time and it doesn't bother me but she wants to kick me out cuz on that 1 email but I've been following my probation correctly to the tee, what should I do?
