Puerto Rico
Hello:
I was wondering what happens when an accused person is convicted for a crime in one state or by a state, but he has other charges that are federal. Can the federal court take jurisdiction for both or do they always have to be separate? In which prison would he or she serve his sentence? If the crimes are different does he or she serve first in one and then in the other? How is the process? If the crimes are similar or same category, then what is the process there? If the crimes are both in state jurisdictions and not federal, is there also a different process?
Thank You.
