• ???? During the 37 years that I've practiced law, I've learned that preparation for trial isn't just important, it's EVERYTHING.? To successfully represent you, an attorney must be intimately familiar with the facts of your case.? Attention to detail is crucial.?

  ???? Therefore, when we meet, I will ask you about the tiniest details, some of which may seem completely insignificant.? However, a full command of those little tidbits and having the experience to know what to do with them often means the difference between winning and losing.??

  ???? I was the elected prosecutor (Commonwealth's Attorney) for Pulaski County, Virginia, for 20 years.? During that time, I prosecuted hundreds of felony and misdemeanor cases - dozens before a jury -?from drunk driving to capital murder, and everything in between.?? In 1980, I successfully prosecuted the man who killed Radford University freshman, Gina Renee Hall, whose body has never been found.? That was the first time in Virginia that anyone had been convicted of murder without a body.? At the time, it was one of only seven or eight reported decisions in the English speaking world where someone was convicted of murder without a body, an eyewitness or a confession.? Her murderer, who was sentenced to life in prison, remains incarcerated today.

  ???? The vast, invaluable experience that I acquired as a prosecutor is what I now put to use when I represent you, and what only a few criminal defense attorneys have ever received.? I defend everyone to the best of my ability, and if there's a possible way out, I pursue it in earnest - whether you're guilty or not.??

  ???? If you've committed a crime, I won't condemn, berate or ridicule you, because that's a waste of time and not what you want or need.? Instead, you need?my understanding, concern and capable assistance.? I'll carefully explain the criminal process and the law that applies to your case, and make you as comfortable as possible, both in my office and with the several decisions that you may have to make.

  ???? Because many of you will be contacting me about a felony charge that has been placed against you, I have included the following information.? Most of you are not familiar with the court system or how a case proceeds through it, so?it should address some of your initial questions and concerns, and offer a basic explanation of?some important constitutional and statutory rights that you have.

  PROCEDURES IN FELONY PROSECUTIONS?????

  ???? 1.? If you were arrested on a warrant (as opposed to an indictment), or were arrested without a warrant and the police officer then obtained a warrant, you have the right to a preliminary hearing in a district court before your trial in circuit court.???????????

  ????????? A.? At the preliminary hearing, the Commonwealth's Attorney will present the testimony of one or more witnesses. With this testimony, the Commonwealth's Attorney will attempt to establish "probable cause" that you committed the offense with which you are charged.?

  ??????????B. ?The Commonwealth's Attorney does nothave to prove that you are guilty beyond a reasonable doubt at the preliminary hearing.?

  ????????? C.? Although you are entitled to present evidence at the preliminary hearing, for reasons that I will explain to you in person, it usually is not a good idea to do so.? ????????? D.?? If the district judge determines that the Commonwealth's Attorney has presented sufficient evidence to establish probable cause, he will "certify" the charge against you to the circuit court for trial.? The judge does so because a district judge does not have the authority to decide whether you are guilty or not guilty of a felony. ????????? E.?? If the judge does notbelieve that the Commonwealth's Attorney has presented sufficient evidence to establish probable cause, he will dismiss the charge against you.? However, if the charge is dismissed, it does notmean that you cannot be tried for the same offense at a later time.? This is because the preliminary hearing is not a trial, and your constitutional right not to be tried twice for the same offense does not apply.? ????????? F.?? If the charge is dismissed at the preliminary hearing, the Commonwealth's Attorney may elect to present the charge to a grand jury (see further information below about grand juries) in an effort to obtain an indictment.? An indictment, much like a warrant, is a document that charges you with a crime.? If you are indicted by a grand jury after the charge was dismissed at the preliminary hearing, you will again be arrested, processed, and possibly incarcerated.? Should this happen, you need to contact my office immediately.?? ????????? G.?? The testimony at the preliminary hearing will not be recorded unless you instruct me to hire a court reporter. However, if you eventually have a trial in circuit court, it is very helpful in many cases to have a transcript of the testimony at the preliminary hearing available at trial.? This is because witnesses sometimes change their testimony and a transcript?of what each witness said at the preliminary hearing would enable me to impeach or discredit that person's trial testimony.? I will be happy to discuss whether you should have a court reporter at your preliminary hearing and the associated costs. ???? 2.? If the charge against you is certified to the circuit court, it will be presented to a grand jury before your trial.? ????????? A. ?A grand jury (which is a small group of reputable citizens from the county or city where the charge is pending), much like the judge in the district court, hears the evidence against you and determines if there is probable cause to believe that you committed the crime with which you are charged.? ????????? B.? If the grand jury determines that there is probable cause to believe that you committed the crime, it will return an indictment.? The indictment is the formal charge on which you are tried.? An indictment must be returned against you before you can be placed on trial. ????????? C.? Neither you, nor I, have the right to be present when the grand jury considers the evidence against you.? Nor do you have the right to present evidence to the grand jury.? Usually, the only witness that appears before the grand jury is the police investigator.? ????????? D.? If the grand jury does notfind probable cause to believe that you? committed the crime with which you are charged, it will not indict you and the charge will be dismissed.? However, 1) this rarely happens, and 2) the Commonwealth's Attorney is permitted to present the charge to another grand jury at a later date in an effort to obtain an indictment.????????? 3.? Even if the police believe that you committed a crime and intend to charge you, they do not have to obtain a warrant for your arrest.? ????????? A.? The Commonwealth's Attorney may instruct the police that he will present the charge against you directly to a grand jury.? In this situation, just as it is described above, a grand jury considers the evidence against you and ?decides whether to indict you or not.? ????????? B.? If you are indicted, you will then be arrested and processed.? ????????? C.? In this situation, you bypass the district court and are notentitled to a preliminary hearing.? Instead, the charge against you goes straight to trial, usually within a few months after your arrest.????? ???? 4.? If you are indicted and have a trial in circuit court, the following apply, which?I'll go over with you in greater detail in person if you employ me to represent you.? ????????? A.? You are presumed to be innocent.? This presumption applies throughout your prosecution and you cannot be convicted unless and until the Commonwealth's Attorney proves your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. ????????? B.? You have the right to plead not guilty and the right to a trial by jury.? If you have a jury trial, the jury hears the evidence and decides whether you? are guilty or not guilty.? If a jury finds you guilty, it then gets to see your?criminal history before it fixes your?punishment within the range provided by law. ????????? C.? You also have a right to waive, or give up, your right to a jury trial, in which case the judge would hear the evidence and decide if you are guilty or not guilty.? However, the Commonwealth's Attorney also has the right to a jury trial.? Therefore, if the Commonwealth's Attorney elects to have a jury trial, your case will be tried by a jury, even if you wish to be tried by the judge. ????????? D.? You also have the right to plead guilty, in which case you give up your right to a jury trial, your right to confront your accusers, and your right to remain silent.? You will be found guilty and sentenced by the judge after he reviews a background report or the plea agreement that you enter into with the?Commonwealth's Attorney?and the state's sentencing guidelines, which recommend a range of punishment to the court?based on the nature of the crime and several other factors. ????????? E.?? You also have the right to plead nolo contendere, or no contest, which plea, for all practical purposes, will be treated like a guilty plea. ???? 5.?? If you plead not guilty, but are found guilty, whether by a jury or by the judge, you have the right to appeal your conviction.? In that event, I will discuss your options with you in detail.????? ???? Please call to schedule an appointment?so we can?discuss your case.? I look forward to meeting you?so I can?assist you with what might be the most troubling time in your life.???? DISCLAIMER:?

Ideas for covering art sketch book?

What can we do if she gave us false info and refuse that she is the driver?. . Also, I would like to add that my husband has never received a speeding ticket, parking ticket, or any ticket of any kind.. @Lesh. . Yup, you pointed out our two big concerns. Right now, we are very tight on money. (My husband has an illness. And, we are scraping our money together so that he will be able to get treatment. Unlike Australia, this overseas place does not have Medicare to help pay for the expensive medical costs.). . Onto more details:. . While we were on our short trip over Australia, my husband tried to get his ex-gf to pay off the car (1 year left) and transfer the registration. But, we left Australia not transferring the registration to her, because she did not pay off the loan. She only have about $5000 left and she comes from a well-off family. I don't see why she cannot pay the loan off and have the title transferred to her. And, she has the nerve to text message my husband that she is buying a new car and she does not have money to pay off the loan?! This is absurb!.

It is now Feburary and I moved into my apt in NOV. This is my first. I got a receipt of my deposit but as far as the lease i dont even think i signed on?? I remember signing a paper asking for my name and SSN, but then my mom told me that that was the credit report. Once that cleared he gave me my keys. It has been 4 months. I have text, called and left voicemails asking for my lease several times and he always says he will get it but he never does. At this point I dont think I signed one, but just in case I did I do not want to leave and be sued. What do I do now, because I found a really great deal on another apt across town. Please help. . PS I lied and said that i needed it for my benefits to get a rush on it cause im in the army and i called him like 4 times today and he keeps sending it to voicemail and wont call back..

There may be surrounding properties my friend, but that does not mean that your property is a buildable lot. Go to the county and ask them. They will guide you through this process. That would be my main concern. Contact your attorney, for a few hundred bucks it will help secure your retirement plan. Sounds fun, best of luck!!
