San Diego felon defense

If you are convicted of a domestic violence crime, the court will issue a criminal protective order. This order will most likely include a no contact order, a no negative contact order, or allow a peaceful exchange of children.

A no contact order is an order preventing the defendant from making any contact with the victim whatsoever. This means the defendant must not talk, call, e-mail, or make any other type of contact with the victim.

A no negative contact order is an order preventing the defendant from making negative contact with the victim. The defendant is allowed to make contact and live with the victim, but is not allowed to annoy, harass, or alarm the victim. A violation of this order will most likely result in the court issuing a no contact order.

A peaceful exchange of children is an exception to a no contact order. The defendant will still be restrained from making any contact with the victim. However, the defendant can make contact with the victim if the defendant is there to pick up their child for child custody and visitation purposes.

The courts are increasingly serving defendants with criminal protective orders at arraignments on domestic violence charges.

At the initial appearance, Harris-Moore will be arraigned. This means that he will be advised of the charges against him, the possible penalties, and his constitutional rights. If Harris-Moore enters a plea, the judge will set a date for a preliminary hearing.

A preliminary hearing is a right afforded to those charged with a felony. In a preliminary hearing, the prosecutor will subpoena witnesses to testify in court. The prosecutor has the burden to establish that there is reasonable cause to believe a crime was committed and that the defendant committed that crime. The prosecution has the burden of proof to establish there is reasonable cause or reasonable suspicion to believe that the crime charged was committed by the defendant. If probable cause is found, the court can set a date for jury trial.

Layla Trawick, a 34-year-old woman from Northern California, is accused of walking into a Target store in West Hollywood and stabbing people at random. KTLA reported that Trawick is believed to have entered the store carrying two knives. She then walked down aisles and allegedly began stabbing people. Four people were injured before an off-duty LA County Sheriff’s Deputy was able to take Trawick into custody. Trawick’s relatives say she is bipolar and schizophrenic but has never hurt anyone. She is now facing four counts of attempted murder and five counts of assault with a deadly weapon.

An attempt to commit a crime is sometimes difficult to prove because the prosecution must prove that the defendant had the specific intent to commit the alleged crime. Generally speaking, someone convicted of an attempted crime will be sentenced to half the custody time he would have received had he been convicted of committing the actual crime he attempted to commit. Penalties also depend upon the circumstances of the crime as well as the criminal record of the accused.

If you have been charged with a felony in San Diego, you must make sure that you have an experienced felony criminal defense lawyer representing you.  The sentence, or punishment, on felonies always includes the possibility of going to prison for a number of years.  Facing the prospect and risk that you could be in custody for such a long time, you should not settle for a San Diego criminal defense attorney who only handles misdemeanors.  You need a felony lawyer.

A knowledgeable San Diego felony criminal defense lawyer knows how to use the law to minimize your sentence as much as possible.  But, it is not enough that your lawyer be knowledgeable; your lawyer must be a hard worker.  For felonies, your lawyer can file what we call a Sentencing Memorandum with the court.  The purpose of a Sentencing Memorandum is to explain to the judge all of the legal reasons for giving you a light sentence, as opposed to a harsh sentence.  The California Rules of Court give judges various factors that they must consider when sentencing a defendant.  That sad truth is that even many knowledgeable San Diego felony criminal defense lawyers do not write or file Sentencing Memorandums for their clients because it takes too long and they are too hard to write.  They are lazy.  That is why you need not just a smart lawyer, but a lawyer who will truly work hard on your behalf and fight for you.

The San Diego felony criminal defense lawyers at Wallin & Klarich are both knowledgeable and tireless.  We will do everything we can to give you the best representation in court and make sure you have the best possible outcome on your case.  If you would like to speak to a San Diego criminal defense lawyer, please contact Wallin & Klarich today via phone at 1-877-230-1529 or fill out our consultation form for a free evaluation of your San Diego County criminal case.
