Question

I am not familiar with New Jersey law or criminal procedures. I have a court appearance or an open case against me from 2004. I was allegedly accused of taking my friends car and driving it from Atlantic City to Philadelphia. I never was arrested and charged with this in person and never knew about the charges until I was pulled over a month ago in Evesham Township and I was informed I had a warrant with $500 bail. I paid the bail and have a court date for the 16th. I do not know what the court date is for like sentencing or whatever. I never went through the arraignment process. I am not sure if I need the lawyer. Can I spend time in jail for something that happened over 10 years ago?



Answer

First of all anything that is criminal or quasi criminal should not be defended against without a lawyer. Your facts do not give me enough information without meeting with you and getting discovery from the municipal authorities. I suggest that you contact this office and set up an appointment. I have handled matters similar to this in the past.

You CAN. 800/2737933.



Answer

The judge will likely force you to hire a lawyer. Thus, you should call one now instead of later. Call me anytime at 732/773/2768 to discuss



Answer

I practice in NJ and Pennsylvania---

You should have a lawyer....I question whether they can sustain a case after this amount of time, which is why you need a lawyer all the more.
