Once a weapon enters the scenario, it is a whole slew of knew charges. Fighting with your fists is better then going jail. If it was in self-defense the judge may grant a lighter sentence. If the person with the knife was in fear of his life and was the one being attacked, it may help to his advantage. The judge will go over the scenario and decide what is right. However their is nothing like hiring a good attorney to represent you. They know the laws better and can get you a lighter sentence. A public defender is risky. With them it is a roll of the dice. HIRE a LAWYER. What is better a big bill you have to pay, or jail time? Not a hard one to answer.

Because you've already stated that a court appointed lawyer was provided...the lawyer should be giving you this answer!!
The lawyer appointed to your "friend" can cite the specific law of YOUR state which will also show what the friend is looking at as far as sentencing if found guilty!
Best wishes!

particular he can, the way it works is while the police look, they take statements (if anybody desires to offer one) and then in addition they do their own record. all of it gets grew to become in. if the case is something considerable, like battery, homicide, attempt. homicide, stuff like that, there is a superb risk the D.A. will assessment the case. that's the considerable area... whether no statements have been given, the sufferer does no longer want to press costs, etc, if the D.A. comments the cops comments and/or any extra advice coated and makes a decision that is interior the final activity of "the folk" to pursue costs, then they do. it works the two techniques, if the sufferer desires to press costs, makes a record, yada yada yada and the document gets to the D.A.'s table and he says, no longer nicely worth spending the peoples funds to flow after this guy, then no costs are filed. cheers

I would SERIOUSLY try to afford a lawyer--payment plans, anything. There are also lawyer groups that help out people in low income brackets...but you GET what you pay for. And counter sue the person that punctured you (I got that you were the one who got stabbed?).
