What should we do about my husband's theft?

Answered by attorney Dennis Julian Roberts (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Dennis Roberts A Professional Corporation
If he was treated as a juvenile you should go to that court and ask the clerk to pull the file and ask for help figuring out what is wrong and maybe the clerk will clean up the record with the rap sheet folks BUT THESE ARE LAZY CIVIL SERVANTS so if they won't help, hire a lawyer to do it. If he was handled as an adult, do the same thing but in the adult court where his case was handled.

It usually depends on how serious the injuries were. If broken bones, stitches, loss of consciousness it will be a felony. If you used a gun, it may also be a felony.

How can I as the victim have an aggrevated assault charge dropped?

Answered by attorney Michael Thomas Lynch (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Michael T. Lynch
You need to understand that, while a victim can influence a case, the ultimate decision to charge or not to charge is that of the District Attorney. Should your ex-boyfriend be convicted and sentenced to prison, it would not be the DA who is responsible, it would not be the Judge, and it certainly would not be you. As far as what you can do, while they can't stop charges from being filed, a victim has the right to let the DA know of their feelings and desires. It would also be your right to speak at sentencing. At that time, if you still feel the same way, you could ask the Judge to be lenient.
