What is a deferred sentence?

Ardalon Fakhimi
Answered by attorney Ardalon Fakhimi
Criminal Law lawyer at California Criminal Defense Center
A deferred sentence, also known as a deferred entry of judgement, is when a court puts continues the sentencing (or punishment) in a criminal case for a designated period of time in order to allow a defendant to perform some negotiated act (ie. drug program, payment of restitution, completion of a class, etc....). If the defendant satisfactorily completes the required act, then the the defendant will not be sentenced and the matter is typically dismissed. If, however, the defendant fails to perform the designated act, then the defendant will be sentenced, thereby resulting in a conviction of the charged offense. The defendant typically would not have the option of asking for a trial because he/she had already pled guilty. All that remained was the sentencing aspect of the case.

Can I file charges against my neighbour for voyeurism since he has been videotaping me inside my home for two years?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney David C. Ayer (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at AyerHoffman, LLP
Absolutely. This is a privacy crime, something taken more seriously than ever before. You should report this crime to the police immediately. In addition to filing a criminal complaint, you can sue your neighbor under several theories of privacy invasion. You should consult with a personal injury attorney to determine the best course of action. In Massachusetts there is a three year statute of limitations on claims of this sort starting from the date you discovered the taping. However, if the neighbor's videotaping has been ongoing, the statute arguably won't start to run unless and until he stops. Either way, you should retain counsel soon.
