The only time you must be read your rights is if you are going to be questioned and your answers might be used against you in court.  This is the same in every state.  Your Rights of Due Process say that you may be held for 24 hours without being charged and 72 hours before seeing a judge or having bond set.\n\nBest wishes!\n\nDaniel\niPowerGRFX Web Development\nhttp://www.ipowergrfx.com\nhttp://www.publicadjuster.com\nhttp://www.americanisraelicourtreporters.com\nhttp://www.wlalwcc.org

It depends on what their sentence is.  That is up to the courts.  \nFor instance... i was put on probation for felony prescription fraud for 3 years with deferred adjudicaton.  However, after doing 1.5 years i petitioned the courts to grant early release based on my performance.  I was really serious (and still am) about leading the clean life and steering clear of trouble now, and my comm officer knew that.  \n\nUnfortunately, regardless of whether my sentence was deferred i still have to check "yes" in that little box that asks "have you ever been arrested?" on an employment form.  \n\nIt's a hard lesson learned that will follow me for the rest of my life.\n\nThe way i understand it is, i will have to wait another 5 years to have the "arrest" not show up anymore... if i am lucky... and that is a big if.\n\nMoral of the story... stay away from drugs.

That's a huge fish story.....true or not. My first question comes from the first arrest as why you didn't go down to the local police station and have your vehicle checked by a drug dog to avoid the second incident. I then wonder why, after the first arrest, you didn't head to your local doctor and get a blood test proving you were not using. This doesn't appear to have been done for the second arrest either. So, what you are left with is a mountain of evidence against you. Considering these are both felonies, any deferment, agreement, plea deal you make will instantly make you a convicted felon, a label that lasts a lifetime. Tread carefully grasshopper, you are in very dangerous waters.

Unless you get a lawyer to contest the forfeiture it will happen.  They don't have to goto court under the law.  All they must show is that the money was tied into illegal operations.  This is a lower standard then finding you gulity of a crime.  If the money was tied into a drug business in any way, at any time then legally they can take it.

it can be used to hold you if you get in trouble in another jurisdiction\n\nbut as long as you stay out of trouble it basically is at the discretion of the district attorney in the arresting county if they want to pay to extradite you

You have an arraignment, where you plead guilty or not guilty.  If you plead not guilty, the next hearing would be a preliminary hearing, in which prosecutors will present evidence to a judge who would then determine whether or not there is enough evidence to bind you over to trial.  If there is enough evidence to bind you over to trial, the judge will set a trial date.

You could be eligible for some types of Federal aid, depending on your situation (where you are and what you were convicted of)...\n\nAre you currently incarcerated?  If so, you are not eligible for Federal loans, but you are eligible for a Federal SEOG (Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant) and, in some cases, a Pell Grant. (Your eligibility for Pell depends on the type of institution in which you are incarcerated.  People in federal and state penal institutions aren’t eligible for Pell grants, but students in local penal institutions are eligible.)\n\nThe law imposes additional restrictions on drug offenses.  If you were convicted of possession of illegal drugs, you are not eligible for federal aid until AT LEAST one year since your conviction:\n\nIf you were convicted for possession, and it was your first offense, you are eligible to federal aid one year from the date of your conviction.  If you were convicted for selling (and it was your first offense), you must wait 2 years from your conviction date.... If you have more than one offense for selling or more than 2 offenses for possession, you can only regain eligibililty for federal student aid funds after you complete a certain type of rehab program.\n\nFederal aid aside, it is possible that there are scholarships out there for people looking to start anew -- perhaps some specific your circumstances.  Try searching www.fastweb.com for organizations that help people looking to give people a second chance. I'm sure there are some out there.\n\nBest of luck.

Right after they catch and arraign you...

The FBI will do an investigation on various aspects of your life from the forms you fill out. They will check finance, friends, family, drug use, recreational activity, political affiliations,etc... They will conduct interviews of family, friends, and acquaintances. They'll check you addresses, criminal record, etc..\n\nThey are looking for anything that may indicate a possible compromise of the info you will encounter/create that could lead a breach of "national security.\n\nThe investigation could take as little as 6 months or as much as 2-3 years(or more) depending on the info you furnish, the access you'll be granted, and the amount in your past. \n\nUntil the investigation is complete you will probably receive an interim clearance that will allow your schooling and "work" with limited access to sensitive compartmented information.

You most certainly can until such time that you are examined by a psychiatrist that you were having said episode. The psychiatrist may have to testify in Court as to your mental satate at the time of the arrest.

You haven't provided enough information for a decent answer.\n\nIf you were arrested for DUI, and you live in a state where there is an Administrative Per Se program (DUI arrest = license suspension), you should have received paperwork at the time of your arrest telling you what you need to do for your hearing.\n\nIf you're in California, the answer to your question is yes - you have to request your hearing within ten days.

Possession of less than one gram is a "\nstate jail felony," the lowest level of felony. This is punishable by 180 days to 2 years in prison and up to $10,000. It is a third degree felony if you have ever been convicted of a felony before, meaning that your punishment would be 2 to 10 years and a fine up to $10,000.

As far as I know, you are arrested, held over for trial (preliminary hearing comes first), you then hear your charges & make your plea guilty or not guilty. You are then given a date for your trial to start & in between, you will have other hearings, called bail hearings, to find out how much it's gonna cost you to get out until you actually go to trial.  If you have no money for bail, then you stay there until the trial starts, which takes months.  I don't know why you, a relative, would not be permitted to enter the courtroom.  Are you a minor?  Perhaps she didn't want you to hear some of the things that were being said or she doesn't want you involved with her case because it could cost you your life.  Especially if she is or was associating with  people in the drug industry.  She should have a Public Defender & they should be able to answer your questions with her written permission.  Call them & ask.  Remember, the District Attorney is on the side of the People, which would be the Police who arrested her, so be careful what you say to them, because they could associate you with the wrong element & you could end up in as much trouble as she is in.  Chances are, she is being held for her own safety.  You can have her call you collect, or write her a letter if you cannot visit her.  You will need to call the jail & get her booking number to put on the letter.  Also, you will need to send it in a post office envelope that has the stamp pre-printed on it.  Most jails won't accept anything with a stick-on stamp on the envelope!

The police can detain any person at any time for reasonable cause and you can be held under suspicoun until you have been cleared or charged.  I believe there is a 72 hour limit on how long they may hold you till they must either free or charge you.

Don't know, but it can't be good. Got you in trouble once, and you get busted again? Time to leave the drugs alone for a while, don't you think? I hope not for your sake, but this time you just might have time to think it over.

My son recently failed a drug test while on probation. It is his first violation of probation. He is in jail now and will be there for another 6 months waiting for a new public defender to be assigned to him and a hearing which is in Nov. The state is requesting he serve 20-30 months. Depending on what your crime was originally as well as the judge handling your case, will decide on what happens to you. If you were originally arrested for a drug crime, you will probably go to a drug rehab live-in facility. If your crime was not drug related, then you will probably serve time in jail. The length of time depends on the severity of the crime you were charged with and how many VOP's (violation of probations) you have had. My advise to you is to call your probation officer and inquire about going to a drug rehab. program and admit you have a problem. If you don't, he will just soon have you picked up anyways. It would look better for you to show you are wanting help of your own free will.
