Is it true that the defense of intoxication typically depends on whether the intoxication was voluntary or involuntary?

Michael Roy Morris
Answered by attorney Michael Roy Morris (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Morris & Morris, P.A.
The intoxication defense works only very rarely, and may not be available depending on state or type of offense. In Florida, the relevant statute is F.S. 775.051:  Voluntary intoxication resulting from the consumption, injection, or other use of alcohol or other controlled substance as described in chapter 893 is not a defense to any offense proscribed by law. Evidence of a defendant's voluntary intoxication is not admissible to show that the defendant lacked the specific intent to commit an offense and is not admissible to show that the defendant was insane at the time of the offense, except when the consumption, injection, or use of a controlled substance under chapter 893 was pursuant to a lawful prescription issued to the defendant by a practitioner as defined in s. 893.02. Intoxication is an affirmative defense, with the burden on the defendant. I have used it successfully in cases where women have been given intoxicating medications (i.e. "roofied") without their consent and then committed offenses like trespassing, traffic offenses, etc. For a short, but clear, explanation of the defense, look at Carter v. State, 710 So. 2d 110 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998). Good luck!

Can my friend file for reconsideration on a sentence if he has served 2 of his 4 years already?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jared Christian Winter (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Jared C. Winter
You could meet with a local criminal defense lawyer for a consultation, but generally speaking, asking the court to reconsider is a waste of time. Even if you have a great reason for the court to reconsider its sentence (e.g., defendant's parent or child is about to die), the courts are extremely reluctant to modify sentences. They don't like to do this because if they do, everyone will come back later asking for reconsideration.

What do I do if I was falsely accused of gun shots from my window?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
When anyone is charged with any crime, they need to get a private criminal defense attorney in my opinion. If you are indigent you may qualify to have the public defender appointed to represent you. At the arraignment you must plead not guilty.
