Aaron,
Does this mean that our lawyer should be contacting the judge (court) and not the assistant prosecutor? Can the judge overrule the decison of the count prosecutor's office? The search was...
As I had written before, my lawyer submitted a motion to return all seized items, and indicated that proper forfeiture action was not taken within the time frame allowed.
Today, my son received a...
I agree with you on that point. It just seems to me that what we would be doing is asking our lawyer to revisit his notes, look for points that might have been overlooked or present the previous...
After speaking with a number of people about my son's case (including members of the legal profession), it has been suggested that he file a post conviction relief motion. He is presently under...
Thanks for the information. There never was a trial and some charges were dropped, others amended and probation for 2 years with probable termination after one year was the sentence. We just wanted...
Question,
We have just received a letter from our son's lawyer who indicates that he has requested the return of all seized items..there is a paragraph that says " I am requesting that these...
Carl,
Thank you for your advice and the kind way you presented yourself. You are a gentleman. Some people automatically assume someone is a bad person, and in this case, even the judge didn't...
Carl,
This was a plea deal which we were advised very strongly to accept..what convinced the Grand Jury was a trumped up charge that was dropped immediately after the indictment, because there...
Carl,
You are absolutely right, but poor judgement usually is not considered a crime, but in a day when Dateline does a show using entrapment as entertainment, and every other headline is about...
Charges were trumped up to obtain the computers. They were trying to make it a sexual offender case, and to their dismay, nothing was on the computers or in anything else they took. This was a case...
It is not difficult to accept, it's difficult to understand the logic behind it. NJ keeps telling us that when he is finished with his probation, he can go anywhere without a problem..we were told...
I thought that this fit into what was being discussed. I was responding to a comment made on this thread. Next time I'll do what you suggest.
I still don't quite understand how all of this works. NJ set the terms of his probation, knowing that he was going to move to Florida. Our lawyer assured us that he would be "monitored" by Florida...
So what you are saying is that even though he is not under Florida's jurisdiction and his probation could be done in 8 months, he will never be allowed to be in Florida as a free man? His sentencing...
By the way.. this same young lady had 3 my space accounts, all with different ages and in contact with many other "men" over the age of 18.
It's a case of a substitute teacher contacted by a student by an IM. All cut and paste from IM's.(she was trying to make a boyfriend jealous)No solicitation for sex was involved, no physical contact,...
New question, now that he has rejected the registration as a sex offender in Florida, and has moved back to NJ, where he isn't considered a sex offender,would he be allowed to move back to Florida...
Warning, just make sure that your probation will be accepted by the state you want to move to. Our son was told that he could transfer to Florida, after 3 months of having him report, they decided...
I find this interesting. When my son's apartment was raided, they took his computer and his roommate's computer (who had nothing to do with the case). They opened up both computers and have returned...
Finally spoke with our attorney and for the first tiime, he told us the computers might not be returned. He said it is at the discretion of the department to decide if it is contraband or not..Guess...
Thanks for your information. It certainly enlightened me. The sentence has been given and probation started, so the items are no longer evidence. One of the computers never should have been taken....
I'm still at a loss as to why our lawyer doesn't tell us the procedure for the return of the items. He says he's working on it, whatever that means. Our older son, who was not involved in the case,...
Interestingly enough, the sentencing information stressed that this was not a Megan's law offense, but it seems that the folks in FL don't understand the statute and the nature of the offense....
My son's computer and is brother's computer(he was his roommate at the time) were taken from their apartment by the county police as part of an investigation. My son is now on probation and it is...
