What is the name of your state? California
I go to Pre-Trial on Friday regarding my case. I am being charged with 3 counts of Assualt and Battery (misdemeanor) . I think I might have a good case in my defense. It was my best friend I got in a fight with. He was drunk at the time and decided to call the police, and now he wants to drop the charges. I spent 4 days in jail before I could go to court and post bail. The judge lowered my bail from $50k to 5k.
I pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The fight lasted 20 seconds, and the other guy had no injuries.
I have a perfect record, what are the chances of me getting an offer from the DA for just a slap on the wrist charge, such as community service and a scratch on my record? Any ideas or advice?
Under no circumstances do I wish to do jail time again. To me, this should not even be in court, let alone all the b.s. of getting arrested.
I'm going with a public defender right now because I cannot afford an attorney. I just want this to be over with, I have already lost $800 as a result of this charge. Thanks!!!
