Enhancements For Mitigating And Aggravating Roles
Can anyone tell me details on enhancements for drug charges? The case is being processed in Federal court in Louisiana. Can an enhancement be applied without concrete evidence, ie., only by the accusing word of someone that is bargaining their own plea? Will the person that determines the PSI be made aware of the enhancement before the recommendation is made? How many levels will an enhancement increase the accused?
Re: Enhancements For Mitigating And Aggravating Roles
For the most part, same answer. You can work out with your lawyer how to dispute any enhancements that the prosecutor bases on testimony or evidence that you don't believe merits the enhancement. But the testimony of other people involved in the crime is evidence.
