Legal Answers
- Q. motion to continue arraignment & trial granted w/out opposition- does that mean case is going to trial w no plea deal?
- A: There are a lot of reasons why this could occur, but, no it definitely does not mean a case is going to trial with no plea deal. One reason a motion to continue is filed could be that the AUSA is about to reindict with a superseding indictment and doesn't want to arraign defendant twice and waste court resources.

- Q. Is the search warrant valid if it has the wrong address?
- A: A lot depends on the specific circumstances surround the situation. If there is a valid issue with the search warrant, we can fight it by filing a motion to suppress in court and hope the judge will suppress whatever was seized during the search.
- Q. When a residence is raided by law enforcement they leave behind a property sheet of items they took, at the top it says
- A: I would advise that you contact a lawyer to attempt to get your items back. Since there was a search warrant executed where you live, it may mean that there is an active investigation and thus it may not be a good idea to speak to law enforcement without representation.
Charges could still very well be forthcoming. The government sometimes can take a full year after a search warrant is executed to indict.
