What can I do if I was charged with second degree burglary and forgery?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Joseph Briscoe Dane (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Joe Dane
Burglary requires a specific theft or fraudulent intent. Forgery also requires a fraudulent intent. If you truly didn't have any intent to defraud anyone, then you're not guilty and should fight the charge. How strong the case is against you and what you should do can only truly be assessed by your attorney after a thorough review of all the evidence. You definitely will need an attorney to assist with this. Start looking to hire a good, local criminal defense attorney that routinely practices in the court where your case will be heard. If you cannot afford an attorney (and you'll never know if you can until you meet and discuss the case and fees), then you can request a public defender when you got to court.

Can the police search my house without a search warrant?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Ramona Rae Hallam (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Ramona R. Hallam
Police officers need either (1) an arrest warrant or (2) probable and exigent circumstances to lawfully enter a persons home to arrest its occupant. (Kirk v. Louisiana (2002) 536 U.S. 635 [153 L.Ed.2nd 599].) Once in the house, if they have a search warrant, they can legally search. If you or someone residing in the house gave permission for a search, then it is okay. If you were in the house when the arrest began and there was something in plain sight or within your reach, they do not have to ignore it but can seize it. If they have a warrant only for your arrest, they have the right, based upon the authority of the arrest warrant, to search anywhere in the house that you might have been found. (Maryland v. Buie (1990) 494 U.S. 325, 330 [108 L.Ed.2nd 276, 283].) The inquiry is a factual inquiry based upon the circumstances moment by moment.They are allowed to do a search but only in specified circumstances. You really should retain counsel to analyze the facts of your case and bring a motion to suppress, or to introduce evidence at your preliminary hearing. There are so many factors that it is difficult to assess without police reports and witness statements.

What is the motion to dismiss case called?

Michael Rutledge Norton
Answered by attorney Michael Rutledge Norton (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Norton
It depends. There may be a Serna motion for the delay in bringing you to justice depending on when they filed and the charges There may also be a statute of limitations issue if they filed after a year and it was a misdemeanor. There could be some other relevant motions as well. Contact a few local attorneys and discuss the specifics of your case with them and how they recommend proceeding.
