What is the fine amount for driving without a valid driver's license if it is my first offense?

Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
It depends on which court your ticket is being prosecuted in. You will have to go to court and the judge will determine the amount of the fine. Or you can hire an attorney to represent you.

Can the state/police still press charges even if there was no arrest and the other person isn't pressing charges?

Gregory Casale
Answered by attorney Gregory Casale (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Gregory Casale, Attorney at Law
You are not supplying enough information. Whether there was an arrest or not does not control. You can be summonsed into the court to be charged. Regarding the "other person", it is not up to civilians to "press charges". People call the police when they feel in danger or they think a crime is being committed. Once the police come and take statements, it is now up to them to determine if "probably cause" exists that a crime has been committed. If they believe that probable cause exists, they will charge a person with the crime. It is now up to the DA to prosecute or drop the charges. Once the call is made, it is too late to recall the police and control the situation.

Can you present evidence during an opening statement?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael Fraser Morgan (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Michael Morgan, L.L.C.
An opening statement is expected to be an outline of the evidence you expect will be presented at trial. In respect to 911 tapes, the best practice would be prior to jury selection to have an evidentiary hearing to determine if the 911 recording will be admitted into evidence and whether the recording (if admitted) will be admitted in its entirety or be offered with some redactions. If the 911 tape is admitted, I see no reason as long as you have a good faith basis to believe you can overcome any foundational objections not to play the tape during the opening.
