felony even if its only 1 pill and your first offence. most first time offenders in fl get 18-36 months probation depending on wich county you live in mine was pinnellas county. st pete. try not to use a court appointed lawyer if you dont have to your best bet is to hire your own. good luck.

It varies from state to state, however the charge can be a misdemeanor or felony, depending on the court the charges were filed in.  If it was in a lower (city) court, it would be a misdemeanor; in a higher court (superior, appeal, etc.) it is a felony.

What the h*ll is a mistimier charge?  Do you mean misdemeanor?

Yes, Pancha. Felonies are serious crimes. A federal offense (ie; illegal border crossing) is considered a felony.

What happened to you was an arrest.  An arrest is like Herpes, not everyone knows it's there, but sooner or later someone is bound to find out.  Your arrest record from PA will stay with you whether Misdemeanor or Felony.  There is no way for anyone to know if this was a felony or misdemeanor arrest.  Most theft classifications are dependent on the dollar amount of the merchandise taken.  Just beceause you were released doesn't mean it wasn't a felony. Most jails wont waste the money to house you if you aren't a serious risk for flight, or a danger to society. Keep something else in mind, a lot of states have laws that say if you are "convicted" of a theft, meaning you have been sentanced for a theft and you commit another one, it is an automatic felony.

Call them from a pay phone.  The courthouse or police station/sheriff's office will advise you.  Also, if it's a misdemeanor, turn yourself in and get it over with.  Believe me, it's not worth looking over your shoulder for for so long.  Eventually they'll catch you anyways and then it'll be worse.

Depending on what state your in the laws vary. In Florida you can petition the court to have it sealed provided the initial charge was not a sexual based offense. You will need to find a lawyer because the paper work will kill ya!

Any felony is not a misdemeanor, each state regulates there own laws, so what is a certain crime in one area may have different meanings in ohter areas.

It probably varies from state to state, but the two exceptions I know of are: (1) if you did jail time for something that was only a misdemeanor; not a felony and (2) if the crime was committed as a juvenile. I don't know if these hold in all states, however.

Court clerks aren't allowed to give any information except administrative. By and large, Florida civil servants are genial and helpful. So either you were unlucky and got the other kind, or you pursued a line of questioning that is against his or her orders to answer.\n\nState courts generally do not have extraterritorial jurisdiction but there are many exceptions, not likely including eBay sellers.\n\nYour first objective with eBay fraud should be to file a claim with eBay. If you paid with PayPal you can get as much as $1,000 (less $25) back. I just got $153 back from them last week; I'll get the $25 as well if they manage to collect from the seller.\n\nUnless you know the identity of the seller you're not going to be able to sue; so you're going to have either to sue eBay first or to subpoena the information from eBay.\n\nWhether you can collect for lost wages and other expenses depends on whether they are foreseeable results of the fraud. In some states you can file a misdemeanor theft complaint rather than a civil fraud one, and although the standard of proof is higher it is far more unnerving and damaging to the fraudster. And if s/he is solvent may get a quick refund for you.\n\nBut what do I know. I'm not licensed in Florida.

He was probably doing something to make the police think he had a weapon, so I'm sure he's not completely innocent. But possession of a non-lethal weapon is a misdemeanor. If he does any jail time at all, which I doubt, he'll get 30 days in county. More than likely, he'll probably have to pay a fine and/or do community service.

Depends on the state, it is definitely a misdemeanor and possibly a felony.\n\nAnd, if there are child custody issues, will most likely result in her losing custody (assuming she had custody) and restricted visitation.

You will need to contact a lawyer on this.  The Florida statutes are available online, but only as far back as 1997:\nhttp://www.flsenate.gov/Statutes/\n\nHope this helps!
