Can I have my father's caregiver arrested if he is a drug felon?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
I am not sure that you have indicated that a crime was committed. Just because the caregiver is a convicted felon, does not mean a crime has been committed. A convicted felon is probably not the wisest choice to have as a care giver. It sounds to me like there could be other issues, like whether this person is giving the appropriate care or is possibly trying to take advantage of the situation. My advice is that you retain an attorney who specializes in guardianship law and elder law.

Is it true that you must be given a preliminary hearing within 60 days of your arrest while being held or charges get dismissed?

Answered by attorney Jason William Savela
Criminal Law lawyer at The Savela Law Firm, P.C.
Failure to conduct a PH within a reasonable time can result in release from jail. But, if the Defense requests the continuance or the defendant waives the requirement that the PH be conducted within a certain time period, then no sanction will be given. It sounds like the lawyer wants more time to get the right information to best deal with the case. In that situation, they would agree to waive the time frame rule.
