What would the sentencing be for a first offender being charged with a small amount of schedule 1 drugs on federal property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
The honest answer is that no attorney can predict the outcome, nor even give an intelligent opinion, without reviewing and knowing all the charges, evidence, police reports, expected testimony, priors history, etc. The charges actually filed by the prosecutor will determine how much time and other penalties could potentially be imposed. You'll learn the actual charge[s] and any enhancements filed and get copies of all the police reports and prosecutors evidence when appearing for arraignment at the first court hearing. If convicted of any felony in CA state court, you potentially face one or more years in prison, plus fines; on any misdemeanor in CA state court, you potentially face up to 12 months in jail, plus fines. If this is in no nonsense US District Court [federal crime committed on federal land], drug convictions may carry mandatory federal prison sentencing. When arrested or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a test, search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.

I filled a false police report claiming identy fraud but it was not true. I am now being charged with filling a false police report. What can they do

Answered by attorney Edward J. Dimon (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Edward J. Dimon
you need to address these false filing charges and the outstanding arrest warrant. the police have no obligation to serve you with the arrest warrant out of state. they only have to serve/deliver the warrant to your old address. the warrant remains in effect until you address the warrant. you could be arrested on a motor vehicle stop. do you have a criminal record ? if not, we may be able to address the false filing charges and arrest warrant with a contempt citation and a significant fine. you will, most likely, have to appear in court. both the fine and the legal costs are significant. please let me know if we can help. ed dimon, esq. 732-797-1600 ext 235
