A Defedant may be allowed to plead youthful offender in Alabama if the person is under the age of 21 at the time the criminal offense was committed. An adjudication of youthful offender is not a criminal conviction and will not appear on your history as such. Youthful offender files are confidential records. You may apply for youthful offender status in any case whether it be the smallest misdemeanor like a speeding ticket of the most heinous felonies such as murder. However, it is discretionary with the judge as to whether or not you are granted youthful offender status. I do not recall those with felonies such as murder being granted youthful offender status. You may apply for youthful offender status in a felony case although you were previously adjudicated a youthful offender in a prior misdemeanor case. However, as I mentioned, it is entirely up to the judge as to whether or not he allows you a subsequent adjudication as a youthful offender. Hope this helped.

No. Once a felony warrant is issued, it has no expiration date. If, for instance, a person violated a felony probation and subsequently fled the immediate jurisdiction until after the original term of the probation, the warrant would still be active and enforceable. Even if the subject(person) of the warrant contested the facts which prompted the warrant being issued, that person would still have to surrender into custody to fight the basis of the warrant. Hiring an attorney to contest the warrant from a distance will also not work, as attorneys are Officers of The Court and obligated to not harbor or assist in concealing a "wanted" person under warrant. In criminal law, the State always preserves the right to impose the maximum sentence up to and until the last say of probation has been served with all conditions being met during that period. It never just "goes away".

If its your first offense then you may be looking at about a year in county or state prison, followed by a long probation term, fines and cost, and possibly community service. Now if your a repeated offender then you are most likely going do 2 or more years, or if the judge is nice you may get off a little easier. This is only speaking on unarmed burglary, if its armed, you are looking at much more time. Make no blank assumptions either, a second degree felony is BAD and you WILL do time regardless especially if this isn't your first offense. If they drop it down to a third degree then you more than likely won't serve time, but if they keep it the way it is then you may want to start enjoying the last few days you have with your friends and family because 9 out 10 times you will be sentenced to do time.

Oral contracts, 4-years; written contracts, 5-years; promissory notes (medical bills, car loans, etc), 5-years; open accounts (credit cards, some merchant accounts) , 4-years. SOL's only apply to the time limit in which the creditor can file a lawsuit against the debtor. In most states the SOL begins after a debt is charged off by the original creditor, generally 180 days after the DLA. The SOL is not an automatic defense, it must be presented to the court by the debtor/defendant if it is applicable as a lawsuit defense.

There are no SOL's pertaining to felony warrants. The warrant will remain valid and active until the named person is apprehended or voluntarily presents themselves to authorities. At a specific point in time, warrants do go "cold" meaning the information remains in the system but an active search for the person is no longer ongoing.
