What can I do if my son was given a drug paraphernelia ticket?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
Was the guilty plea 10 days ago or less? If so, get to a lawyer IMMEDIATELY and get that case appealed to county court (assuming that the court in which he pled is not a court of record.) He will get a trial de novo (new trial) at the county court level. There he can work out a deal so that the case gets dismissed and he can later expunge his record. By paying the fine, he took a final conviction which will stay on his record forever. (He may also have a search issue and he absolutely has a possession issue. How can they prove that he possessed the paraphenalia?!)

What happens if I get pulled over and have a suspended license?

Philip Daniel Hache
Answered by attorney Philip Daniel Hache
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Phil Hache
If your license is suspended and you get pulled over, there will likely be charged with VC 14601, or one of it's subsections. The specific charge would depend on why your license is suspended. For instance, if your license was suspended for a DUI conviction, the charge would be VC 14601.2. Then penalty can also differ depending on the exact charge, but can include mandatory Jail time. In short, if you have not been pulled over and charged with driving on a suspended license yet, don't risk it. It is not worth the risk. If you have been charged, I would recommend speaking to an attorney about your case in order to potentially get the charges dismissed or mitigate consequences.

Should I send back the affidavit and talk to the police officer?

Mark R. Thiessen
Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
Absolutely not. Do not speak to the police without an attorney. They are not looking out for your best interest. And polygraphs are inherently unreliable and easy to manipulate or analyze.
