Can a misdeamor be changed to a felony?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Yes. You will learn the actual charge[s] filed against you when you appear for arraignment at your first court hearing. The prosecutor can amend at any time he feels he can prove additional or different charges. The charges determine how much prison time would be imposed if convicted. Plea bargaining is to reduce that. When arrested or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a search or confession be used against you, and can you be convicted, and what can you do? Raise all possible defenses with whatever admissible and credible witnesses, evidence and facts are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or at trial. You can hire an attorney, unless you know how to effectively represent yourself in court against a professional prosecutor intending to convict. He will try to get a dismissal, diversion, reduction or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.

How can I get a DWI dropped and what are my options?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
You are asking for a lot by asking this question on your case. Your case is very complicated and seems to me that you are lucky to have the option of taking a course and having the case dismissed. .18 is quite high, and the fact of the accident is very bad for a DWI case. A lawyer would need to review ALL the facts and see your video, get information on the intoxilizer, etc., in order to give you advice on how to proceed. Certainly the medical information about your body producing ALDH2*2 would be interesting but would require an expert. Certainly only 3 drinks consumed 2.5 hours before driving should not have made you over the legal limit, and certainly not .18. As far as your lawyer's representation, if you are not satisfied, you are free to hire another lawyer to substitute in but you will likely have to pay that lawyer. You might be able to hire a lawyer to consult with your lawyer under the understanding that your entire future is at stake and you just want to be certain.

Can I get two charges removed on one case?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
What are you asking? If you got a deferred on a felony that you successfully completed and 5 years has passed since your release from probation and the theft case occurred before the felony, you are eligible to petition the felony court for nondisclosure but you must pay a filing fee and present it to that court in which the case was prosecuted. You really need a lawyer. Regarding the misdemeanor - if it was a final conviction, it stays. If it was a deferred and you successfully completed probation then you can petition the misdemeanor court in which THAT case was prosecuted. If it was dismissed, you must file for expunction in civil district court IF you qualify (which you may not....) You need to talk with a lawyer local to where your cases were prosecuted.
