Will I receive a fine for marijuana possession if I have a prior charge?

Answered by attorney Steven M Dodge (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Steven M. Dodge, PLLC
You may very well be charged with a felony possession of marijuana, second offense. As to what sentence you might receive, that depends on the assigned judge. What judge has your case?

How can I get domestic violence misdemeanor charges dropped for my boyfriend?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
You can contact the prosecutor and ask to submit an affidavit of non-prosecution. However, you are in contempt of court for failing to show up in court after being subpoenaed to appear. You are the person who filed the complaint, but then you fail to show up to testify, so the court can issue a warrant and force you to appear. After you filed the police report, it is out of your hands because you have reported a crime against society, not just a crime against you personally. (That's how the prosecutor will view it.)

If I have a warrant for not going back to court, are there any programs that can help me pay for my warrant?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
It is not as simple as that. The only way to get rid of the warrant is to appear before the judge. If you don't do that and try to ignore the warrant, you could be arrested.
