Procedure for an undecided felony indictment

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
I'm going to make a few guesses here. My first guess is that you intended to say this is an unindicted felony. The second is that you are asking about the procedure with regards an unindicted felony. If that's the case, the procedure is that the DA's office has 90 days in which to present the case to the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury will then determine whether there is probable cause to pursue the charges. Beware: most cases are "true billed," by the Grand Jury. The saying in the courthouse is that a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. There are reasons for that. What you should take away from knowing that is that an indictment is not the end of the world. All it reflects is the one-sided view of the grand jury that there is probable cause to continue. That's a far cry from beyond a reasonable doubt.

I was arrested four years ago they told me this was a felony i was bailed out and i havent git court ever since?

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn

It is best to "leave sleeping dogs lie". It would seem unlikely that the State would file now, but if they think she was under 17 when you had relations there could still be filing. If the case is filed and the bond has been discharged there could be a new arrest.

Is the third time offense for shoplifting a felony?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
It only gets to felony with an amount greater than $1500.00 3rd time is not the charm for shoplifting.
