The odds are that you'll be treated more harshly by the court the second time around.
Forever, if you don't get "charged" again :-)
This is for what you were already charged, you will not be charged again.
George Zimmerman was arrested again on November 18, 2013. He was charged with aggravated assault, battery, domestic violence, as well as some more minor charges. Allegedly, he pointed his shotgun at his girlfriend in their home.
Take the plea bargain. And if not, you'll have a permanent record and you will get a fine and unsupervised probation so that if you get in trouble again, you will receive 30 days in jail for the crime. Otherwise, if you're behaved and have only been in trouble this one time, that is what you are looking at as far as criminal punishment. He/she can then make a civil court claim for money to pay for the surgeries, medical expenses, etc. That is not the criminal courts decision that will be decided in civil court. Good luck.
Simple Assault is defined as an "unwanted touching." To be classified as "simple" it must involve an unarmed contact using nothing more than the hands - - unless the person doing the touching is a trained boxer or martial artist - in that case his touching automatically is classfied as a 'battery' because of the skilled use of his hands.
If they kill someone while drinking and driving but if they don't and they only injure someone than they should get charged with assault or charged with man slaughter at least. I personally don't think they should go to jail for drinking and driving. I think that they should go to jail for at least 2 years so they learn not to do it again.
The accuser won't be prosecuted and he or she may assault again.
If the charges are dismissed, it can be charged again if sufficient additional evidence is presented.
An arraignment is the appearance before the court where charges are read and a plea entered. You can be charged again after being arraigned, but the charges would be new ones.
It depends. A simple expungement does not qualify you to own a handgun. If have been charged with something that disqualifies you from owning a gun, you have to have your rights restored before you can legally buy one again.
If there are witnesses stating that you are the aggressor in this situation it would be a waste of time filing counter charges. You will still be charged as there are witnesses and possible evidence against you.
It will depend on what the judge says. If the judge dismisses the case "With Prejudice" it means that the case cannot be brought again. If the judge dismisses the case "Without Prejudice" it means that the case can be brought again and the person could be charged again.
