His charges were dismissed without prejudice. How long does he have to worry about being recharged? Thanks!Is there a statute of limitations when a criminal case is dismissed without prejudice?<br >The statute of limitations for a criminal prosecution is the maximum amount of time the defendant could be incarcerated for committing the offense. Check the penal code and see what the maximum sentence is... the time is the statue of limitations.Is there a statute of limitations when a criminal case is dismissed without prejudice?<br >The statute of limitations runs from the date of the offense no matter how many times charges are filed or voluntarily dismissed. It stops -- depending on state law -- when witnesses are sworn or when a jury is sworn in to try the case.<br >Dismissed without prejudice means the case can be resurrected anytime within the applicable statute of limitations. The DA probably felt there was not enough evidence to gurantee a reasonable chance of conviction so dropped it for now retaining the right to bring it again if he can beef it up. Unless it is really slow around the office there will be plenty of other fresher better cases to work on and yours will slide.<br >The original statute of limitations from the date of the crime would apply. The statute would possibly be tolled during the time of the original prosecution. Check NM law for the statute on drug trafficking.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Good luck.<br >I don't think there is a statute of limitations, but if he was arrested and charged and is found in possession again, it could count against him. Make sure he keeps out of trouble.<br >It sounds like he may have gotten lucky - if he stays clean, he's probably alright - but if he gets busted again, they will probably bring the old charges back up - I don't know if there actually is a statute of limitations on it.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-49491365408342508432010-08-24T22:20:00.000-07:002010-08-24T22:20:13.842-07:00Are newspapers allowed to publicize an ongoing criminal case the criminal suspects home address?It it against the constitutional right to privacy, for a newspaper to publicize a criminal suspects home address?Are newspapers allowed to publicize an ongoing criminal case the criminal suspects home address?<br >The 4th Amendment's right to privacy only applies to certain state actions.

But only twelve can determine the verdict. If there are more than twelve at the end of the trial, a ballot is used to select which twelve will retire to consider the verdict. Usually the only reason more than twelve would be empanelled would be that the trial is expected to run for a particularly long time, and one or more jurors may end up leaving due to illness, death, etc. The trial cannot continue with fewer than ten jurors. <br><br /><br />We don't use juries at all in civil trials in South Australia.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-22381015265663984142010-08-24T22:19:00.002-07:002010-08-24T22:19:41.578-07:00Need a criminal case to do my project on?anyone know of a criminal case with good forensic evidence?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />i have to do a powerpoint on one for my forensics class.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you have any ideas please let me know, iv been searching for a case with good forensic evidence and I havnt had any luck! pleasee help!Need a criminal case to do my project on?<br >Try the O.J.

The threat of a jury trial allows cases to be settled. Juries can be used as leverage by one or both sides to foster a settlement to the case. This is probably the most common function of a jury. You'd be amazed at the number of cases that settle because turning it over to a jury is a risk few attorneys lovingly embrace.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2. Juries decide questions of fact based on the evidence presented and the instructions of the judge.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-21655281439869968962010-08-24T22:19:00.000-07:002010-08-24T22:19:09.614-07:00What are the jury instructions during a criminal case?Jury instructions do several things:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They define the elements of the crime or crimes charged;<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They limit the evidence to be considered by the jury;<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They tell the jury what they must do if they find certain facts;<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They tell the jury what they may or may not conclude from certain conduct (e.g. the defendant's decision not to testify as an admission of guilt.);<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They may admonish the jury with regard to stricken testimony and/or evidence<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />There are many options. In the more simple and straight forward case, jury instructions are pretty much forms agreed upon by the legislature or judicial committee to be acceptable. However, ALL jury instructions are subject to challenge and/or modification. Often, this is the subject of pre and/or post trial motions and hearings. These hearings are designed to eliminate prejudicial evidence or definitions, or to allow certain instructions to clarify a point or testimony that may need further explanation than the form instructions may provide. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />As is the case in any phase of trial, the theory is to provide the defendant with due process, and to try to eliminate the presumption that the defendant is guilty before jury deliberations. It is also designed to afford the state and/or plaintiff's attorney the right to have admissable evidence against the defendant properly presented and explained to the jury for deliberation.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />A good attorney will challenge boilerplate instructions if they prejudice his or her client. Most of these challenges are not going to work, because the standard instructions generally have been challenged to death. There is seldom a ';new'; challenge to consider. However, if the litigation is complex and the issues need further clarification, the challenge may stand. Many criminal cases are won and lost in this phase of trial.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />EDIT:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Example of California Jury Instructions<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />http://www.hhs.csus.edu/CJ/Syllabi_F07/F鈥?/a>What are the jury instructions during a criminal case?<br >The actual instructions vary, there is a different instruction for each point of law, they are created for each individual case. Then there are others that apply to all cases. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They can also vary from state to state. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I have been at trials where it can take 20 minutes or more for the judge to read the instructions.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Try a search with your state and ';jury instructions';. I was able to find Wisconsin's that way.What are the jury instructions during a criminal case?<br >Essentially, they are the set of legal rules that jurors must follow when the jury is deciding the case. Jury instructions are given to the jury by the judge, who usually reads them aloud to the jury. They are often the subject of discussion by attorneys on both sides in the case and the judge in order to make sure their interests are represented and nothing prejudicial is said.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />It covers such things as what evidence can be considered, what the jury MUST do, what the jury cannot do and other rules. They will vary depending on the case and type of case (civil vs criminal).<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Calif Deputy<br >They're the way the judge instructs the jury as to what the prosecution has to prove in order for them to find the defendant guilty.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />No-one can possibly know what the actual instructions will be in a specific case without knowing even what the charge is, let alone the specific facts and elements to be proved.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Richard<br >It depends on...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />What Court you're in, what the crime was, what the points of law under question are, and the level of proof that is required. The compilations of Jury Instructions I've seen have been in huge volumes, and the Judge chooses from the instructions in each section those that apply specifically to the trial in question.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Sorry... there's just no way anyone can provide you with the specific instructions.<br >UNDER ALABAMA LAW, IT IS FOUND UNDER ALABAMA RULES OF THE COURT, THE RULES OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE, JURY DELIBERATIONS, RULE 21: INSTRUCTIONS TO THE JURY: OBJECTIONS<br><br /><br />21.1--INSTRUCTIONS TO THE JURY<br><br /><br />21.2--ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS<br><br /><br />21.3 OBJECTIONS<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />'; AT THE CLOSE OF THE EVIDENCE OR AT SUCH OTHER TIME DURING THE TRIAL AS THE COURT REASONABLY DIRECTS, EITHER PARTY MAY FILE AND, IN SUCH EVENT, SHALL SERVE ON THE OPPOSING PARTY, WRITTEN REQUESTS THAT THE COURT INSTRUCT THE JURY ON THE LAW AS SET FORTH IN THOSE REQUESTS.';<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />IN A CAPITAL CASE THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY BE GIVEN BY THE JUDGE BEFORE THE TRIAL PHASE BEGINS.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-33944957982383030002010-08-24T22:18:00.003-07:002010-08-24T22:18:53.938-07:00I nver commited a criminal case in UAE but my previous employer gave me a lifetime ban!

There is not fan-fair, unless you were to report and did not. The Clerk of the Criminal Court should be able to search out your records.

It is raised when the defendant (you!) have some sort of mental disability or disorder which diverts you from being dealt with ';according to the law'; because you don't have the mental capacity to understand it. A successful application will mean that you won't have a conviction recorded against you (you basically get away with it). BUT, you may have to go to a mental health person and get assessed and be kept an eye on. Just depends if the application is made with conditions. Otherwise, you will be ';released'; into the care of your parent/s. Your lawyer would be wanting to get a few psychiatrist reports on you because that's what he/she needs to be successful. So if you haven't already, you need to see a psychiatrist. Your lawyer then uses the psych report and tells the court about your mental illness and why you shouldn't be punished. Other then going to see a psych, you don't have to do anything else. Check with your lawyer though what he needs you to do.

Say someone is living somewhere and the owner wants them kicked out, civil. Let us say someone throws a rock through a window but didn't mean it, it was an accident, civil.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />It is all about intent in criminal, and eating and leaving is full of intent. It is the intent of stealing the food from the restaurant. It is just called something different for some odd reason. I think it should be called larceny like all others, it is the same punishment anyway.Is fleeing from the restaurant without paying a civil or criminal case?<br >Dine and dash usually is a misdemeanor in Illinois unless there was damage or the meal was very, very expensive. It is called theft of services. Bond is usually more than the meal would cost( $100.00 cash) and the court will keep 10 percent of the bond if you are charged. So, if caught, you generally pay more than if you just paid for the meal in the first place.Even if you are found not guilty, it is likely the court will keep the 10 percent.<br >It is both.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Criminal offense, probably petty theft, a misdemeanor, and the restaurant could file a civil action for the value of the meal, though the punishment for a conviction on the criminal charge would include the payment of restitution to the restaurant.<br >Criminally you will get charged with stealing but the owner can sue you in a civil case if he can find a way that you running away hurt his buisness (very easy). Most likly he wont sue you because the cost of court and a lawyer will be far greater than your meal.<br >Where I live it's criminal. It's considered defrauding an innkeeper. Old fashioned terminology but it boils down to being a theft/larceny issue.<br >It is defrauding the restaurant and a criminal case. Like shoplifting, except the goods are in your stomach.<br >Its called ';Defrauding an Innkeeper'; (537PC) and is a misdemeanor charge in California.<br >Petty theft is a criminal offense.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The restaurant can sue for damages and loss.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So it is both.<br >stealing- criminal<br >PEOPLE DO THAT AT DENNYS ALL THE TIME.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-38927379040760634852010-08-24T22:17:00.002-07:002010-08-24T22:17:34.121-07:00How to I find information on an old criminal case file if I have the case number?I have an old criminal case number from November, 2005 and would like to find out what the case was about.

In order to win a civil case for money, you must prove that the other party owes you the money by a ';preponderance of the evidence'; (this means the jury thinks it is more likely than not that they owe you the money). <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />A criminal case is brought, not by an individual, but by the government in order to punish a criminal. The government must show ';beyond a reasonable doubt'; that the person accused committed the crime (think of it as being 99%+ sure.).What is the difference between a civil case and a criminal case?<br >A civil case is when you are suing some for something or someone is suing you. A criminal case is when someone is being tried for a crime and the district attorney (procecuting attorney) tries to prove that the defendant is guilty then after hearing all the evidence the jury has to decide if the defendant is guilty or innocent.

I, myself, actually think that they would wait at least a year. But I don't know.How long does it take for a criminal case to become considered a unsolved case, or a cold case?<br >There is no time frame. As soon as you run out of leads, and there is nothing else to follow up on, the case goes inactive.How long does it take for a criminal case to become considered a unsolved case, or a cold case?<br >At the point that there are no more leads to follow, no more witnesses to interview, no more evidence to collect and analyze. The cases stay open in hopes that, at some point, another witness will come forward or more evidence becomes available. I don't think that there's really any magic amount of time for a case to be declared as cold or unsolved--the investigators can make that declaration when there is nothing else for them to do.<br >I think its over a life span of the criminal, basically when they can assume that person is dead from old age I cant say I'm sure but since I watch alot of court TV well tru TV now, for example i remember there was a criminal cases in which detectives solved 33 years later! Also depends on how severe the case is, murder cases would never end that easily.<br >You're correct technically, but the fact is that lots of cases are wound down fairly early on, but the police wouldn't ever say that publicly for political reasons, and for community faith in them.<br><br /><br />So that screenplay is unrealistic, unless the film is about an inept police spokesperson.<br >They wait until they have run out of leads, but a few months is a little bit quick to declare it officially unsolved, especially if it's a kidnapping or a homicide.<br >They are never unsolved or cold cases. There is a special unit that continues the investigation until it is solved beyond a reasonable question of doubt.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-9455185848767654212010-08-24T22:14:00.003-07:002010-08-24T22:14:53.825-07:00What is a evidencuary hearing in a criminal case?Is there anything I should do or take with me? My daughter is the victim and I need to know what is going to happen on this court date? What will the DA and his attorneys do? What are the procedures?What is a evidencuary hearing in a criminal case?<br >In criminal law, it is a hearing to determine if a person charged with a felony (a serious crime punishable be a term in the state prison) should be tried for the crime charged, based on whether there is some substantial evidence that he/she committed the crime charged. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />A preliminary hearing is held in the lowest local court (municipal or police court), but only if the prosecutor has filed the charge without asking the grand jury for an indictment for the alleged crime. Such a hearing must be held within a few days after arraignment (presentation in court of the charges and the defendant's right to plead guilty or not guilty). <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Since neither side wants to reveal its trial strategy, the prosecution normally presents only enough evidence and testimony to show the probability of guilt, and defendants often put on no evidence at all at the preliminary hearing, unless there is a strong chance of getting the charges dismissed.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If the judge finds sufficient evidence to try the defendant, the case is sent to the appropriate court (variously called superior/county/district/common pleas) for trial. If there is no such convincing evidence, the judge will dismiss the chargesWhat is a evidencuary hearing in a criminal case?<br >An evidentiary hearing, also known as a preliminary hearing, is a hearing in which the Judge desides questions such as is there enough evidence to continue, what evidence will be allowed, is it a civil or criminal case, is the crime within the court's jurisdiction. As far as what you need to do, you should ask your lawyer or the prosecuter.<br >I would think that it is a hearing to make sure there is enough evidence to carry on with the case.<li><a href='http://detox-cleansing-j.blogspot.com/'>detox cleansing</a></li>Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15068009689815039339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7248185369968707725.post-79125340480074336242010-08-24T22:14:00.002-07:002010-08-24T22:14:39.281-07:00Is a unpaid payday loan in Texas considered a criminal case or a civil case?If you took out a payday loan, Is it a civil case or a criminal case in the state of Texas?
