What is the chance that I'm going to be charged for someone's drugs in my room?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
It is not likely that you will be charged with the drugs if it is clear the bag was his and it was closed. However, you can expect to have your money forfeited.

If A Person Was On Probation For Failure To Register As A Sex Offender And Has A Probation Violation How Much Jail Time Are They Looking At

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
The answer depends on the sentence you were given. If you had a deferred probation, you can receive the maximum sentence available for the offense. If you had a straight probation, the mawimum is the number of years that you were sentenced to at the plea.

How do I know if my civil rights have been violated due to a lack of speedy trial?

Answered by attorney Jonathan Lowe
Criminal Law lawyer at The Lowe Law Office, PLLC
Good question. The issue is whether his right to a speedy trial has been violated. Your dad should consult his attorney about whether he wants to file a motion to dismiss for violation of his right to a speedy trial.  The seminal case on point is Barker v. Wingo. There are four main factors a judge looks at to determine if someone's right to a speedy trial has been violated. First is the amount of time that has passed. Typically 8 months is the minimum.  Second, has your dad requested a trial? Third, what is the cause of the delay? Is the State ready to proceed to trial? Has your dad wanted to go to trial? Fourth, what is the prejudice that your dad has suffered as a result of the very long delay? All four factors are important but no single factor is dispositive. Courts are hesitant to grant speedy trial motions, but if your dad has been prejudiced and the State has not been ready for trial, then it is definitely an avenue worth pursuing.
