dc/house dc/drugs court tomorrow what to expect?

Question

ive been to court several times- but this time is different- ive been charged with disorderly house and disorderly conduct/drugs-

the police had a warrent and rushed in the house, some of the people there had weed in their pockets (2) and one threw his weed on the table, i dont smoke weed and they werent smokeing around me- but since it was my house and they busted in looking for another man that wasnt there we all got dc/drugs me n mah boyfriend both got d/house -

i have no money and though i pleaded not guilty (wouldnt let us out with out seeing the judge ) i know tomorrow will be fuhked up for lack of a better word. so has anyone had these two charges been found guilty or know what to expect-???

i know things vary from state to state i am n the atl area but any answers to give me an idea would b appreciated-

i also didnt use a court appointed attorny because you have two days from the time you are released to contact them and i didnt know that until a few days after.

ok so to the cops wifey- keep bein a wifey cause the deal is a man that just got out of jails brother use to live there and the man that got out of jail gave the police that address- so when HE commited another crime they came to my house with a warrent for HIS arrest so dont assume since you fuhkin the law you really know im hideing sum. cuz thats when u fuhkin the law

Answer 1

This case really depends on how much weed they found on the table? If any search warrent is served and drugs are in plain view of the police officers then they need to obtain a search warrent to even take the drugs from your property, at least in the state of Maryland. You have the right to apply for a continuence 3 times before you go for sentencing and the state has the right to ask for a continuance 3 times. Reason being that you are not happy with your representation. You should try to find an attorney that will do your case pro bono. Every lawyer has to do one pro bono case and you may get lucky and find a good one. Also when you look at the search warrent it HAS to state on there that they were looking for drugs or they cannot take it. Every search warrent has to have a detailed description of exactly what they are looking for, it is the law. Now as far as what your sentencing will consist of depends on your record. You could ask for probation before judgment, if you have no record or just a small record or you could ask for community services if you have a lengthy record. I wish you all the luck in the world, it always sucks when you have to go before a judge.

Answer 2

Tell the judge that you are there without an attorney because you didn't know you had a time limit on when to contact one, and you have not been able to do so. Make sure he/she knows that early on, and that you want one to help you. You have the right to an attorney, and you shouldn't have to face a court hearing without one. The judge will hopefully postpone the hearing to let you get one.

THEN ASK THE JUDGE WHAT THE PROCEDURE TO GET AN ATTORNEY APPOINTED FOR YOU IS, AND DO SO RIGHT AWAY.

You're facing some potentially serious charges, and if you sit back and do nothing, you'll get much more severe penalties than if you act quickly.

Answer 3

First don't expect the proceeding to be "fair" whether you are right or wrong. It doesn't matter. It's now just a matter of procedure. Second, get a lawyer, you will get less of a penalty (sentence or fine). Third, remember , it will cost you less to say you did it than to say you didn't do it (whether you did it or not). Fourth, the state now owns you. They will consume your life for years. Good Luck,chin up, face the music.

Answer 4

First off they must have had strong evidence to believe that man was there. They can't just serve a warrant anywhere they please. He must be living with you. They certainly can't just break down doors. There is more to this story then what you are saying but not my business. In most cases judges aren't that hard on criminals so you should just be fine. Don't worry to much!

Answer 5

if they came without searchwarrent and just a arrestwarrent if you did not give permission to search there maybe issue there but those lousy cops lie like dogs so good luck

Answer 6

Good-bye. You're going down...
