What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? florida
I
am facing 3 yrs (tracifing mj and conspercy to trafic mj)(over 20 grams)
CI wore a wire and video came in on friday .. picked up 10 lb no money changed hands
swat team came in following mon found 46 lb..
CI was busted with 4 recived 2 yrs probation...7 months in failed drug test left state..
procuters say they lost track of him in another state they say they are ready to go to trial with out him (his warrent says pick up florida only )
the lawyer that I have now says he wanted to be removed from my case the judge said no I asked the judge to let him go that he would not repcent me to the fullst of his ability
judge asked me how much I pay my self I said I don't I pay my bills the judge would not listen($675 a month )not including food about 200 $ a month that is (morgage ,lights,phone,cable,insurance)
said I did not qualify for a public defender
I have paid $10,000 to first lawyer over 18 months he moved out of state said he was coming back and he would have a friend stand in.
in 6 months he recived( the stand in) $4,000 at this point I have no choice except to go to trial (If I go to jail I lose every thing )
I know I am between a rock and a hard place I go to trial in 1 week any advice would help
(also my co defendent violated probation from previous charges)
the lawyer that he used to get his probation is the same as the CI used to get his deal that lawyer is dating my prosicuter (this is a small town if proven does this have baring )
