How long do I have to press sexual assault charges after an assault has occurred?

Michael S Edwards
Answered by attorney Michael S Edwards (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Michael S. Edwards Attorney at Law, PLLC
On a child sex abuse case there is no statute of limitation, until the offense is reported to law enforcement. So, if the abuse has never been reported to law enforcement, the statute of limitation has not started to run yet. You could talk to your local police authorities, and report the abuse, and let them take it from there. Good luck!

When someone receives a subpoena in a domestic violence case, does the witness or the victim have to testify if they do not wish to do so?

Jeralyn Elise Merritt
Answered by attorney Jeralyn Elise Merritt (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Jeralyn E. Merritt
A subpoena is essentially a court order to appear. Victims of domestic violence are often reluctant to testify. However, if you disobey a valid subpoena, you do so at your peril and may subject yourself to sanctions by the Court. Witnesses and victims do not have the right to have a cased dismissed. The decision to prosecute rests solely with the Prosecutor. Office. Incidents of domestic violence are deemed to affect the public, not just the parties involved. Courts view the public as having an interest in fairly resolving the case, and if you have been subpoenaed, your testimony could be crucial to this process. While the Court can hold you in contempt of court and punish you, it is likely to try alternatives first, such as rescheduling the court date or asking that a victim's advocate consult with you.

Relatives to the "entrapment defence"

Edward J. Dimon
Answered by attorney Edward J. Dimon (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Edward J. Dimon
This is a very interesting area of the law. The prosecution is given discretion to 'entrap' in certain areas where the crimes are considered as serious threats to society. For example, treason or child sex crimes or drug trafficking. Read about the most recent ISIS cases and you will see what I mean. Read also the child sex cases. Entrapment is permitted. Ed Dimon
