What will happen if I was charged with a misdemeanor a years ago and still have not been convicted?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
If you have a 3 year old case then surely you have a lawyer representing you?! Talk with your lawyer! Generally, I tell people that if they can, let sleeping dogs lie. There is no statute of limitations issue because the charge is filed so the statute is tolled. You could create a federal speedy trial issue (there is no right to speedy trial in state law) but you would have to demand a trial now, something that may not be in your best interest. As the case grows older, witnesses forget and move on in their lives. If you are not negatively affected, I would not stir the pot.

How should I answer a job application question when I was charged with stealing but it was amended?

Answered by attorney Michael J Palumbo (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Palumbo & Associates, PC
To give you an accurate answer to this query I am going to have to be retained (i.e., paid). I would have to pull the criminal records to see what you were charged with and what you plead to, and take a look as the specific query on the application in order to advise you on how to truthfully answer.
