Legal Answers
2 Questions Answered
- Q. So I missed my court date for Criminal domestic violence 3rd degree? Is it possible I was tried in my absence?
- A: Yes, you can be convicted in your absence.
The prosecution only needs to present the victim to the court.
If the victim testifies to the elements necessary to convict you of the offense, you could be convicted.
You would then have only a very limited time to appeal that conviction.
- Q. Can the law legally hold my truck and impound when it wasn't part of my charges or fines for being arrested
- A: IF the arresting agency alleges that the vehicle was used in the futherance of the "criminal enterprise" they can seize it.
(for example: you were stopped with the drugs in the vehicle)
