Legal Answers
- Q. Does NCF Final mean there’s no charge and won’t ever be a charge?
- A: What this means is that for now, the matter isn't charged. It has been stopped and the State is investigating it further to determine if they have more potential evidence against this person to file the charge. If the underlying charge is a misdemeanor level case, they have a year to file it. Gross misdemeanor, 2 years to file it. Class C felony up to 5 years to file it and so forth. This person should think about having a conversation with an experienced criminal defense attorney to be ready for anything and everything if the State decides to file a criminal charge against him. Good Luck to you.
- Q. I have a detective and adult services checking on my mom because she took out 50,000 out of her bank America account
- A: You need to contact and consult a criminal defense attorney now so that you are protected. If you proceed forward without representation you may give information you shouldn't. Sound like this should be figured out and you should be fine. Hire an experienced criminal defense attorney now.
- Q. I was charged and sentenced for DUI even though I was walking
- A: So what is your question? If you have already charged and either plead guilty to the DUI or was found guilty at trial What are you seeking?
