    Question Assault With a Deadly Weapon Charges

    My sister was charged with assault with a deadly weapon in the state of Florida.She got into an altercation with the father of her daughter. The two were drinking and watching a movie when a fight started. They both hit each other and each called the cops. However, my sister hit him with a beer bottle and he was bleeding when the cops arrived. They arrested her since he was the one bleeding. She has no criminal history except for a DUI from 10 years ago. She has no money to hire an attorney and they will not appoint her a lawyer because she "owns" her condo. She is going to plead no contest or guilty because she will lose the condo if she has to hire an attorney. The court date is in three days!! What will the outcome most likely be? I am afraid for her and my little niece.

    Q: What will the outcome most likely be?

    A: Probation, fine, maybe a little jail time, forced counseling. I recommend you go to AA; you have an alcohol problem. "The two were drinking and watching a movie when a fight started."
