I unknowingly sold stolen jewelry for a man, what can happen to me?

Answered by attorney Steven Jed Alpers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Steven J. Alpers, A Professional Corporation
You need a lawyer. I don't know why they would have dismissed the charges against you if they are proceeding with the charges. Who ordered that you have an ankle bracelet. If that was the bail bondsman you should not get charged for the 15 days. If they re-file within 15 days the bond can be transferred to the new case.

Was it legal for me to be arrested on felony charges?

Answered by attorney Joseph A Katz (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Joseph A. Katz Attorney at Law PLC
Can they get away with it? Clearly. Should they be able to do so? Clearly not. Is there much of a remedy for you? Sadly, no. First of all, even if this happened off of a Native American Reservation (a "sovereign nation"), you would face an uphill battle bringing the police to justice for the violation of your rights, and not only are they aware of that fact, they smugly rely upon it. Secondly, you will have to file a complaint/grievance/claim directly with the Tribal Council of the tribe in who's casino (and on who's reservation) the incident occurred. The Council will decide if you can make a claim (you heard me correctly), and even if they then do acknowledge your right to make the claim, will then deny your claim. If and when that felony charge is filed, go to trial. Reject, in the strongest possible terms, any offers by the District Attorney or any attempt by your appointed attorney to get you to settle the case without a trial (or you have no one to blame but yourself, since you would have helped the very organizations - thetribe, the tribal police, the involved law enforcement agency, the District Attorney's Office -thatviolated your rights and injured you to furtherhumiliate,degrade and, importantly, to cost you).
