BRONX CRIMES AND PENALTIES
Bronx crimes that are prosecuted by local and state authorities may vary from drug offenses to violent felonies. According to the NY Penal Law, which is available at https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/laws/PEN, these types of crimes can carry punishments that range from probation, to many years in prison, and also including financial penalties. A defendant who was charged with a Class A felony, like first-degree murder, may face life imprisonment. Even misdemeanors that are prosecuted in the Bronx can lead to up to one year in jail, major financial fines, and other consequences such as a life long criminal record. Prosecutors who are determined to secure convictions often gather extensive evidence, which might include phone records, physical items, or witness statements.
WHAT ARE POSSIBLE STRATEGIES FOR A BRONX CRIMINAL DEFENSE CASE?
Evidence that was illegally obtained
Evidence that was illegally obtained, for example during a warrantless search, can be challenged or suppressed. This can result in evidence being thrown out, and the case the prosecutor has built being weakened. It can result in the case being thrown out. If the police violated your Fourth Amendment rights, we can file a motion to exclude that evidence.
Arguing lack of intent
If you’re accused of a crime that requires specific intent, our attorneys, who have experience with complex legal doctrines, can argue that you never intended to commit the offense. You can’t go to jail for mistakes, if you didn’t knowingly commit a crime.
Self-defense
Under the NY Penal Law, a person who was in fear of imminent harm can be justified in taking defensive actions, which could result in the dismissal of charges like assault. We’ll investigate whether you acted to protect yourself or someone else. This is a viable defense strategy used in the past.
Identity issues
If there is a question about whether you were the person who committed the offense, we will highlight potential eyewitness misidentifications. Mistaken identity, which is common in chaotic incidents, can destroy a prosecutor’s case. We will hire investigators who can find evidence proving you’re not the person who did the crime
Plea negotiations
Sometimes, negotiating a plea deal that reduces your charges might be the best route. Our criminal defense attorneys, who have strong negotiation skills, can push for an arrangement that minimizes penalties or keeps a conviction off your record.
THE BRONX COURT SYSTEM
Criminal cases that are heard in the Bronx take place in the Bronx Criminal Court or the Bronx Supreme Court, both of which are part of the New York State Unified Court System, found at https://www.nycourts.gov/. If you’re facing a felony, then you might go through indictment procedures, pre-trial hearings, and possibly a jury trial.
