How can I minimize the consequences of a drug charge?

Your best course of action is to retain a criminal defense attorney to advise you rather than speaking to non-lawyers. If this took place downstate, feel free to contact me as I am a former federal and State prosecutor and have been doing criminal defense for over 15 years.

Can an attempted assault charge be dismissed if the victim started the fight?

Julie Rendelman
Answered by attorney Julie Rendelman
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Julie Rendelman, LLC
It is  possible for an attempted assault to be dismissed if the victim is the initial aggressor.   Keep in mind that calling someone names does not rise to the level of initial aggressor. In addition, if there is video of the assault, then it makes an outright dismissal less likely.   However, Any behavior on the part of the victim to provoke the attack can potentially act as mitigation in your friend's actions.  I hope this helps.

What could be the process that the notice from the sheriff’s office is saying?

So then, you, being the parent, would be the one it is addressed to - correct? What is so confusing about this I don't understand. Does it literally say "to the parents of 'X'" All I know is that if I were you, I'd have a sit down and a long talk with that 17 year old girl. I bet she know what this is about!
