Your Charges Can Be Resolved By:

Dismissal

Dismissal is whenever a prosecutor sees that there’s inadequate evidence to carry on along with your case. There has to be a high amount of proof to have the prosecution consider dismissal truly.

Plea Bargain

Occasionally, a case can be solved through a plea deal. That is, once the offender admits guilt, they can ignore or decrease the costs levied against them. Occasionally, a plea deal often means that the sentence might simply turn into a good or probation.

Contested Trial

If you do not have your charges dismissed or accept a plea deal, your case is likely to be taken to a trial. During this trial, the prosecutor must show beyond a reasonable doubt that you’re guilty of the charges for one to be convicted. You still get the chance to have the charges dropped during the trial depending on circumstantial evidence surrounding your unique case.
