What if you were charged with possession of marijuana but you weren't finger printed?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
Yes. You don't have to be arrested or fingerprinted. And spelling your name wrong is not cause to get the charge reduced. If you received a ticket for possession of marijuana, and if you don't hire an attorney to take care of it, that conviction will remain on your permanent record. You definitely need to hire an attorney to help you. An attorney can plea-bargain with the prosecutor to get the charge reduced to a lesser offense.

Are rape cases dropped often?

Answered by attorney Steven Jed Alpers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Steven J. Alpers, A Professional Corporation
It depends on the circumstances. If you have a believable witness that nothing happened, it should be dropped.

Do we just wait and see if my son will be charged with a DUI?

It's possible but there is a one year statute for filing a misdemeanor matter. A six month wait is not unusual.
