Under Mississippi Code of 1972, ann., your dilatory plea would be place on hold and once you successfully complete Pre-Trial Diversion, the Hearing Judge will sign an order dismissing the charge(s). Once that is complete, you can hire an attorney and have your record expunged.I hope that helps.
A pretrial hearing for a felony charge is the proceeding where the Defense Attorney and the Prosecutor discuss ways of resolving the charge. It is the first hearing to take place in the Circuit Court.
You should talk to a lawyer. Each state and even each court has different rules for what they will allow to go into a diversion program, and when they will allow it. Some only allow minors, some allow diversion only for a first charge, some allow diversion more than once. You need to talk to your lawyer and find out whether your case is eligible for diversion.
The person in charge was Lieutenant Commander Robert William Rankin RAN.
in the state of Oregon, a DUI will stay on your driving record for life. If you do complete a diversion, the charge will be dismissed but the arrest will still stay on your record.
most likely you will have to have the charge expunged, which is done by a lawyer........
A release on recognizance is not a criminal charge, but rather a type of pretrial release where a defendant is not required to post bail but is released based on their promise to appear in court as required.
yes
The Union general that President Lincoln placed in charge of the department of Mississippi was Ulysses S. Grant.
An initial appearance is a pretrial stage in which a defendant is brought before a lower court to be given notice of the charge/charges and advised of his/her constitutional rights. A preliminary hearing is in a felony case a pretrial stage at which a judge determines whether there is probable cause.
A pre-trial diversion program is basically a get out of jail free card. A plan is set up whereby the offender must follow all of the rules written in the agreement between the offender, the District Attorney, the offenders lawyer, and a judge. It might involve doing community service, a drug treatment program or other programs in lieu of going to court for a minor offense. States have different rules that must be followed for this type of program.
I all depends on you charges and past criminal offenses, but there will be a new sentencing, possibly a warrant out for your arrest, and your charge will be on your permanent record. you could face fines and jail time.
