my husband got second degree assult for beating up a man for burning down our home and the other man did not get nothing because for burning our home because there is no real physical proof can 2nd degree assult be probated on those sercomstances it happened in olive hill ky
I was charged with this crime and was given time served after 6 days. This was in Fayette co., Lex. But this was my 1st major crime, no priors.
Once the common wealth has picked up a charge it can only be dismissed on a not guilty verdict, or an insufficient amount of evidence.
Sexual assault in the 2nd degree means that sexual contact happened with no penetration. This can vary depending on the state.
yes
Hopefully they will put you in jail until you learn.
The penalty for a misdemeanor of the first degree in PA is up to 5 years imprisonment and/or a $10,000 fine.
2nd Degree Assault is more serious than Simple or 3rd Degree Assault, but not as serious as Aggravated or 1st Degree Assault. This basically means that serious bodily harm had been directly or indirectly inflicted on one person by another. Serious bodily harm would probably be classified as broken bones, dislocations, lacerations/incisions, damaged ligaments, concussions, or anything else that would have a moderate to severe impact on a person's ability to live a normal life.
Not including "class D Violent felonies", they include Attempted manslaughter in the 2nd degree, attempted vehicular manslaughter in the 2nd degree, vehicular assault in the 1st degree, reckless endangerment in the 1st degree, attempted rape in the 2nd degree, sodomy in the 2nd degree, and promoting a sexual performance by a child. I got this from the NYSED website.

5 years probation and $1000.00 fine
